We have been on safari before, having lived in Africa. However, this trip was not only exhilarating and exciting, but also extremely informative as our guide was superb and knowledgeable. The roads are difficult to negotiate, being mostly dust and potholed but it's all part of the experience. Maun airport, the jumping off point for the Okavango is airy, light and with sufficient seating. The team with whom we toured were delightful.

Beautiful nature and authentic wildlife

We did a 2-day safari in Chobe National Park from Victoria Falls. We'd heard that the eastern part of the park can have quite high traffic at times, but that was not our experience at all. Our safari guide was super friendly and knowledgeable, and saw amazing wildlife at very close distance. Highly recommend.

Beautiful safari in the Okavango Delta
Overall rating
5/5

The safari around the Okavango Delta was amazing. It was a completely different experience to a traditional safari. We got do a river cruise in a small boat too and saw so many hippos! It was incredible. We also drove around some of the reserves and saw lots of wildlife, sadly no big cats as the weather was a bit rainy (we did go during rainy season) but apart from that we still saw loads of animals - buffalo, giraffe, hippos, ostrich, elephants, jackals etc! We stayed in great accommodation by the Boteti river in tents but had a proper bed and shower and toilet facilities. It was a great experience and we would highly recommend Botswana! We will certainly be back!!

We went to Botswana with no expectations whatsoever, only knowing that the safari at Chobe could be a good experience. It turned out to be one of the most amazing trips we have ever done. The park, the nature, the animals - everything was juts spectacular. We camp in Chobe for 3 days and LT (our guide) was so knowledgeable of the park that it made the visit so much better. The hospitality was great and we are definitely looking forward visiting Botswana again!!

It was great, never forgettable experience!
First, the company “Kalahari Tours” and its personnel in the office. Open, friendly, obliging. We entered the office, not particularly knowing what we actually want and how they can be useful for us. We wanted to see as much of Africa as possible! The lady-manager and the lady – partner listened to us and worked out ideal, as it turned out, plan for us for three days – from that moment to the departure in the airport. We had wonderful lunch there. And it all was much cheaper than we had anticipated before! And considerably cheaper than in other companies! Early in the morning the next day a car took us from our hotel and we met Mr. T. , as he introduced himself (his name is Tshenolo).He showed us round the national park. First, he loves his country and is proud of it. Otherwise, he would fail to make us love Botswana. We learned a lot from him about its history, politics, traditions. Secondly, he knows no end of interesting things about animals and birds. He tried his best to show us as many animals as he could. The number of lions, elephants, zebras, buffalos, hippos, giraffes that we saw much exceeded our expectations! The Chobe park is extremely rich in animal world, amazingly! Tshenolo took us to far-away corners of the park to show us a herd of zebras because we asked him! Great guy Mr. T, he made the safari the brightest impressions of our lives. Generally, the safari was arranged ideally. We could spend any time in the park that we could afford – from three hours to ten days, the formation of groups is very flexible. The boat trip on the Kwando river was fantastic, we saw herds of elephans, we failed to conut how many of them! We failed to count how many hippos we saw! But later, in savanna, we counted the lions in the pride – 18! Two nights in savanna sleeping in tents was for us great experience. The food was very tasty. The sanitary conditions were very good. The main thing, it all was absolutely safe! After three days, Mr. T took us to the office in Kasane. They served us very tasty lunch and took us to the air-port. “Kalahari Tours” is a very customer oriented, friendly company, their prices are surprisingly low, their people are professional, hard-working, obliging. We thank them with all our hearts. Yuri and Olga, St. Petersburg, Russia.

In 2022 I decided to spend the festive season in Botswana, and after a few google searches and email exchanges, I decided to stay at the Boteti Tented Safari. My decision led to the best festive season that I have had in my adult life. During my five-day stay at Boteti, I had a number of activities which included canoeing at sunset at the Boma river, canoeing and walking at the Okavango Delta, a full day at the Moremi Game Reserve and a helicopter view of the Okavango Delta. The sunrise and sunset at the river deck was one of the best parts of my days. The fauna and flora diversity are immense.
