Africa Adventure Tours

The trip was great. We saw a good variety of terrains and therefore flora and fauna. Our tour guide was exceptional. He kept us informed and interested in what we were doing and about Madagascar and its people. He showed great care to all of us. The highlight was the variety of lemurs we saw. The best one was when we in the middle of an Indri conversation, so loud, such fun. Travelling in September we were able to see a lot of baby lemurs. It was great to see the conspiracies working and travelling together.

Fantastic holiday with great company. Our guide, our hosts and most of all the animals lived up to and far exceeded any expectations. Our guide, KK, is worthy of a special mention. He was hugely knowledgeable about every bird and animal we encountered, he had the patience of a saint and quietly and calmly sorted out every problem we encountered, allaying any fears from the group along the way. He knew exactly where to find the animals and how to get the best views, often arriving on the scene before any other vehicles, and being the one to allay the news across the park of unique sightings. He made our holiday.

I loved this trip. Our guide KK was excellent, calm, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Botswana is a truly beautiful country with friendly people. Of all the wildlife tours I have done this was the best. The trip notes were a little brief on the accommodation and lack of power availability (i am being generous here)! I believe it is always best to be upfront about what explorers are letting themselves in for so that they can prepare properly. I would love to do another tour to Botswana, same guide, something else!

I had a fabulous time in Botswana, my holiday exceeded my expectations. I was amazed how close we got to the animals and birds and how many we saw. They were relaxed and weren't bothered by us. Our tour leader, KK, was great and looked after us so well. He is very knowledgeable and was great at spotting the wildlife and answered all our questions. There were many long drives some over bumpy, sandy tracks particularly in Chobe and tarmac roads excellently navigated by KK's safe driving. We were well looked after by lovely staff at our various accommodations. I was happy with the food generally and particularly the variety while we were camping where the food was cooked on an option fire. We drove through Namibia for a few hours and had to pay the equivalent of 80 Euro for visas which were introduced earlier in the year. I think Explore should consider changing the tour to avoid this extra cost. Also the itinerary notes need updating, the camp drop toilets are not 'water based', they use sand. One area was referred to being wet / marsh but it dried up over 10 years ago. One of the people on our tour is passing on more details but your tours leaders can advise you.

This was a great family trip (our kids were 15 and 13) with a good mix of activities and sightseeing - it packs loads into 6 days but not too much either. Mohamed was a great guide, we learnt lots about Morocco and all was well organised. It's a fascinating country to visit from mountains to desert and changing fast - well worth a visit.

I loved this trip and I loved Namibia. Our guide Sheona was excellent and made our experience so much better. We got upgraded at a couple of the lodges which was very fun - but all the lodges were excellent. We ate well. It’s a go go go trip. I would recommend doing the Sandwich Harbour tour. I would also recommend finding out all your optional game drive choices before deciding which one(s) you’re going to do. I found the cheetah conservatory a bit off putting although we did learn some good information about conservation there. There were unforgettable moments on this trip and Namibia will always be special to me.
