This was a full on tour including camping, a houseboat as well as hotels. But the highlight was the wildlife. On day one you were amazed at the wildlife you saw and how close you could get. Just when you think it couldn’t get any better the following brought even more spectacular wildlife sightings. It was like watching a wildlife TV programme but you were actually there in it. There is a lot of travel involved but worth it to explore the region, mostly in Botswana which is a wonderful country. The camping was an experience I will not forget - it was hot in the tents at night and you need to come prepared but the “en-suite” bucket shower open to the sky above and having elephant and giraffe pass by and the excellent camp food made many a memory. The hotel at Thamo Telele afterwards felt like pure luxury as we all needed a much welcome bath. If you want to experience African wildlife close up but safely and have many different experiences as you go this is the adventure for you.
I absolutely would recommend this trip to anyone. It is a very active tour because you are on the go all of the time, but we saw and experienced so much. I got just enough of a taste to want to return. I would also recommend adding at least a day, or two, before and after the tour.
Wild landscapes, intrepid activities and all the laughs - what an epic trip! Taffy was an incredible guide - communicative, knowledgeable on local culture, and the best laugh! We felt safe in his presence, he's an amazing cook, and he's a credit to G Adventures!
My experience was amazing and took me out of my comfort zone with the onsite camping in the Okavango Delta. However, the people and the experiences we met along the way surpassed any negatives. One other thing I forgot to mention about our CEO was that it would have been more engaging if he had identified various markers along the way. For example, our taxi drive to WDH airport pointed out landmarks and items of interest on our way to the airport that our guide could maybe have identified to enrich our knowledge.
This trip was outstanding. My wife and I are back home and we're still talking about it with big smiles on our faces. G Adventures came through wonderfully and showed us exactly what we went to see, and more, in every way.
I would not change a thing!!
We have already started recommending this trip and tour to others.
It was a wonderful trip thanks to an exceptional guide, Africa's own treasured wildlife and habitats, and the kind generosity of the natives who shared with us this spectacular part of the world. Yes, the pre-trip paperwork could have been less confusing . The logistics should maybe have been worked out earlier and more definitely. Nonetheless, all in all a fantastic trip I wish I could share with everyone I love. Please protect the gems we have left. Thank you for helping us be responsible tourists.

This tour to Kruger National Park and Namibia was excellent. It was better than I imagined with the local CEO's making the trip easy for my husband and me to relax, knowing we were in safe, experienced hands.
