A great trip for seeing wildlife. We saw so much and pretty well everything except a cheetah. Full of amazing moments and experiences from start to finish. The Chobe River cruise is a must as is the walk in the Victoria Falls Park. Our group of 10 got on very well and made sure we moved around the ‘truck’ to share the bumps and reduced leg room seats.
I've now done this trip two times and both experiences were fantastic. The wildlife is exceptional - an incredible number of elephants, lions, leopards (the first time we saw 12, this time we saw three mating), wild dogs, hyenas, masses of antelope, even a serval. The list could go on. Botswana's low density tourism means that even in the major reserves you never feel surrounded by other people and most of the time the group is on its own. Both times I did the camping departure which has the inevitable discomforts of camping but repays with the extraordinary experience of being out in the bush. The camping team were fantastic and couldn't have done more to make sure we had a great time.
Very lovely holiday, everything went smoothly, the hotel was very comfy, the food good and the hosts were very helpful. The walks were quite challenging, for the grade and as the weather was hot, but our guide was great at finding shady spots for us! The group got on well together.
