Botswana Wildlife safaris game drives Trips

A very full on, amazing experience with leader Bibi. Wild camping, luxurious lodges as respite, a lovely if small houseboat. More animal sightings than anyone could imagine. Bibi made sure all ran smoothly, from bush tea/coffee picnic stops to the inevitable bush loo break. He seems to have a 6th sense when it comes to locating eg leopards and hyenas. As for Victoria Falls..just wow, the noise, the spray. It was enough for me just to be there so I didn't do the helicopter ride. Pack your spirit of adventure alongside the bug repellent and book this wonderful tour!

Excellent tour guide Bibi, who gad local knowledge of where to see wildlife and anticipate where they would likely be. We saw most animals with young, so November as a good time to visit. Seeing Victoria Falls close up was stunning and the helicopter flight from above was awesome. Hotels that were used were impeccable and a welcome needed break after camping.

This is a stunning trip! Everything was fabulous from the quirky luxury of the accommodation to the excellent plentiful food and of course the magnificent wildlife. This was my holiday of a lifetime made perfect by the ideal guide. Phenyo was knowledgeable, good humoured, kind and patient. He worked so hard to make sure we had the best experience possible. I will remember the sight of a leopard resting on a tree branch for the rest of my life! Only one tiny suggestion-a small collapsible step to help us short people clamber aboard the truck!

If you're looking for a safari holiday where you'll see a diverse range of wildlife, look no further. Titus is a great guide and wildlife spotter and what he found for us didn't disappoint - from lions crossing a river, wild dogs "playing" with hippos to many bird species. The accommodation is as expected for a camping trip. The food exceeded our expectations as did the lodge in Victoria Falls. Its not on the itinerary, but make sure you visit the vulture feeding at the Victoria Falls Wildlife Lodge on the last day - its free and an experience not to be missed.

I have done a lot of travel and this was honestly the best trip I've ever been on. Every day was full of adventure, beautiful sceneries and unreal experiences. I wasn't sure what to expect going into this trip and only booked it for something different to do, however Africa has turned into my favourite place! I am already planning to go back and do other Contikis there next year.

Having lived in E. Africa and done many safaris over the years this trip is the cherry on the cake. 4 leopards and a cub and painted dogs were a highlight. Incredible team with Brian at the helm with incredible knowledge and patients. The best food produced by Brighton. And great teamwork from Timoth and Moetie. A truely memorable trip. Just Thank you!
