Botswana Eco Tours

Excellent safaris,many close up encounters with game. Great camps and accommodation. Well prepared food in the wild by great cooks,and camps superbly set up. One or two encounters with elephants and hippopotamus slightly worrying. Our driver,guide was great,though the length of hours he had to drive were too long on some occasions,though he never complained. He was extremely knowledgeable about the game and the policy of the game reserves. Excellent holiday but you do need to be able to rough it.

This trip exceeded our expectations in almost every way. The proximity to the wildlife was extraordinary, the range of wildlife was exceptional and the entire experience is unforgettable. The trip was enhanced by the outstanding nature of our group leader, Brian, and the support team, Brighton, Timoth and Moeti. The food was excellent and nothing was too much trouble for the team. The trip is tough, early starts, lots of dust and bumpy roads but the rewards make all of this worthwhile and part of the experience.

A superb trip, one of the best I’ve been on. Our leader Bibi was excellent; his experience, knowledge and understanding of the wildlife resulted in us having unforgettable experiences. His ability to manage each day was efficient and communication was clear. He always listened to our requests and made sure all of our needs were met. The ‘boys’ at camp ran it really well: providing great food, were friendly, caring, with great attention to detail. Would recommend adding the Victoria Falls Wildlife trust visit to the itinerary, as this was excellent and a very worthwhile cause. Just a note: there is not time to do any walks at Thamo Telele as well as the Giraffe experience (which is now apparently included in the package, not an option, as I thought).

The wildlife was superb. Our brilliant guide/driver Sam shared his expert knowledge of where to get the best sightings and very close-up views of the animals and birds and their young. We all wanted to stay gazing in awe. The lodges and houseboat accomodation was excellent. The camping was as basic as described in the notes. The two long driving days were 'trying' mainly due to the state of the roads. Sam coped admirably.

I loved the itinerary! We saw so much in Namibia and Botswana. The wild camping was very memorable in the Okavango Delta. The lodge in Etosha National Park was special as we were walking distance to a waterhole and saw rhinos and leopards! We saw all of the Big 5 on the trip. The sand dunes were a highlight as well. I felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler on the trip. Everything was outstanding on the trip, and very well done. I also loved the group and sharing the experience with like-minded people.

What an amazing trip! Our guide, Bibi, was incredible at finding the animals, getting us on the best angle to take pictures of them and answer all of our questions. He went above and beyond to make sure we were all comfortable! The trip has a lot of hours on the car and he made sure to take breaks so that we could all stretch and keep our energy :) Truly an unforgettable experience! Thank you Bibi for making this such an incredible trip for us!
