Amazing close wildlife experience including Big Five ++. Brilliant guide, well planned tour, nice lodges, long drives but very good driver. Life lasting memories!
We went with Onary and Sam August 3 - 16, 2025.
This was an amazing experience and its memories will live with us for years to come. Very well looked after by the the team whose care, passion and professionalism contributed to the complete success of the trip from Chobe to Okavango Delta, from Matopos to Hwange and finally to the majestic Victoria Falls
This trip could not have been better. Everything was meticulously planned and flawlessly implemented, the lodgings were beautiful, and the itinerary was just what I wanted: wildlife-centered. The safari guides were truly super-human in their ability to track and find the animals. They seemed to communicate with them and read their moods, all the while talking quietly to us about the animals' diet, behavior, habits, and lifespans. Because we covered some long distances, we were able to see a lot of the countryside of Botswana and Zimbabwe, and we got to go to places that I couldn't have gotten to on my own. It was a all-around superb trip.
A terrific experience of seeing wonderful animals close up in their natural environments and enjoying the hospitality of so many people so proud to show their countries to best advantage.
A terrific journey taking in different national parks, animals galore, Vic falls and a wonderful wild camping experience
This trip was genuinely spectacular. I went into it with so much excitement and anticipation, and came home with my expectations completely blown out the water! Somehow, every day on the trip seems to get better and better. Every day, you end off thinking 'what else could we possibly see?' - and somehow, the following day delivers something just as, if not more spectacular. If you have your eye on this trip and are thinking about booking - let this be the review to push you over the line in just going ahead and booking - you will NOT regret it!
A truly wonderful trip. A chance to travel into Zimbabwe - an African country I hadn’t visited before - and to revisit Botswana staying in comfortable lodges, plus the highlight of wild camping for 2 nights in the Okavango Delta. Very comfortable transport which was appreciated on the couple of long drives on bumpy roads. A great group of travel companions (including our guide) who enjoyed the shared experiences and lots of laughter and banter during evening meals and a memorable sunset cruise.
We had undertaken safaris before but had never seen elephants, hippos or zebras in the numbers that we came across on this trip. We were lucky enough to see the Big 5, but think our guides’ knowledge had a lot to do with that. We enjoyed game drives by vehicle and got wonderful views of wildlife on Chobe/Zambeizi river trips. The 2 night full-service camping in the Okavango Delta was a once in a lifetime experience. The trip overall was very well organised and varied and far exceeded expectations, our group of 10 having gelled extremely well. So pleased we did this trip as we now have so many amazing photos and memories to treasure.
A brilliant trip with every venue and activity providing an amazing chance to see many types of wildlife in their own environment and in different ways, from comfortable lodges to camping, trekking and jeep safaris, mokoro canoes and boat trips
