Perfectl safari (6D5N Northern Botswana)
Absolutely top company, in all aspects. Starting from communication point of view - all our questions were quickly responded too and through whole process we felt welcome. Even made suggestions to our plans that made us rearrange the trip and worked out perfectly.
Safari itself was amazing. Our guide - Voice - had an incredible knowledge about all wildlife and nature around us, on top of that was an amazing driver, greatly contributing to comfort of viewing scenes in front of us.
It was a budget tented safari and I could be praising this for hours - being this close to nature, right in the middle of it, yet eating amazing food cooked by staff on fire, and staying in very nice tent. 10/10.
Overall, the trip was perfect value for money, and if really don't need to look for your safari anywhere else.
Tailored budget safari done well.
If you would prefer to spend your money on a longer safari experience instead of high end luxury glamping, this company may tick your boxes!
The company - quick to respond. Flexible arrangements. Tailored to our needs with no fuss.
The camping - Basic, clean, comfortable, well maintained, everything you need, with great service from the set up/pack up crew. Hot showers, comfortable bed. Simple camping done well.
The food - Shein, chef extrodinare! Home style cooking over fire done to perfection. Fresh bread, cake, stews, stir fry’s and more. We could never have complained of hunger as we were very well fed!
The guide - Kem. If you were considering a self drive safari, forget about it. We saw so many self drive tourists miss out on seeing extraordinary moments as they weren’t with an experienced tracker. Kem was able to put us into positions to capture the moments we came to see, and we saw it all.
Our overall experience was exactly what we were looking for. They delivered it all and more, and we would not hesitate to use them again.

Unforgettable Camp Safari Adventure and Wildlife Experience
Our 6-days safari experience was truly extraordinary! Our guide, Voice, made it very special; his knowledge of and enthusiasm for wildlife and nature left us very impressed and we always felt safe and well cared for under his guidance.
The camp accommodation was very comfortable, and the camp team was awesome. They took excellent care of us and the camp, ensuring we always stayed in scenic locations. Evalino amazed us every day with delicious meals prepared in the camp kitchen. Thanks Oarabile for the excellent communication; everything went smoothly from the booking process to our arrival in Livingstone. A big thank you to the entire team!
We highly recommend Shipungo Safari to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari adventure.

The team was deeply engaged, highly motivated, genuinely passionate, and impressively professional
Our guide Voice went above and beyond to fulfill our wildlife sighting wishes – his appreciation for guests and genuine passion for his work were truly remarkable. The camp team was friendly, attentive, and helpful, and the food exceeded expectations, especially given the limitations of a mobile safari. Communication with the administration was fast and responsive, and they accommodated our needs to tailor the trip perfectly. I can wholeheartedly recommend Shipungo Safari.

The value for money and service at Shipungo is good to very good. The staff is a big plus.
As a family of four, we took a private 5-day/4-night safari from Maun through Moremi, Khwai, Savuti, and Chobe to Vic Falls and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Our guide and driver was Kem, and the other crew members were Voice, Shine, and Keff. They took great care of our well-being. Special mention goes to Kem, who brought us safely and sometimes Schuhmacher-like at the right time to the right place and in the right position to get a perfect view of the animals (f. ex. 2 leopards and 1 lioness with three cubs). He has a keen sense of when to hurry up, when to stay and how the animals move. The food that Shine prepared for us was delicious and plentiful. We would especially like to thank Voice for his patience with us on the day of our arrival, and Keff for his cheerfulness and the warm water he brought to our tents.
We booked the medium package with slightly larger tents, better beds and food and a bathroom behind each tent. A good choice for slightly older people and two teenagers.
Booking: We booked directly with Shipungo and paid via PayPal. No problems at all. The contact person was Oarabile (Mark). He looked after us very well and answered our emails and questions promptly.
The safari as a whole: Not all went like planned on the papers, but that is part of the game when travelling in Africa. The value for money and service at Shipungo is good to very good. The staff is a big plus.
