Incredible Safari with Amazing Staff
5/5

We had the most incredible safari in Botswana and saw so much wildlife.Pilot and his team were fantastic and so attentive. Pilot was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, Elena was an excellent host -we really enjoyed chatting with her, and Pauline was a super cook producing amazing meals on an open fire. The safari vehicle was great and the tent and bed were very comfortable.
We also appreciated Martin's prompt and helpful answers prior to going away.
All in all a definite 5 star experience.

Brilliant organisation from start to finish
5/5

In 2025 we made contact with Martin at Kingfisher safaris expressing our interest in booking a mobile safari in Botswana followed by a couple of nights in Victoria falls. Martin provided us with a 9 night mobile safari itinerary and organised every aspect of the holiday including transfers, a trip to elephants haven in Maun and our accommodation in Maun before the safari and in Victoria falls at the end. Dealing with Martin was incredibly easy and he was always available to answer any questions we had. Prior to the trip our itinerary was changed slightly due to the localised flooding that has occurred in areas of Botswana and he put our minds at ease immediately regarding the two new camping locations. He stayed in contact through WhatsApp during our trip and when we arrived in Maun he perfectly executed a change to our elephants haven trip to make sure we got to experience it that afternoon as our Mack air bush flight for the following day had changed time which meant we wouldn’t have been able to visit. The mobile safari itself was incredible, Pilot and his team were first class and made sure we were well looked after throughout our trip. Our game sightings in all areas were incredible and Pilot was a wealth of knowledge and truly dedicated to making sure we could see as much as possible. We were able to see wild dogs in all three locations including pups at a den which was a personal highlight. Leopard was also on the agenda and we were lucky enough to see them twice in Savuti thanks to pilots dedication and constant radio contact with other guides. The Sahara tent was extremely comfortable, the food, drinks and camps were all fantastic. Our transfers to Victoria falls all went smoothly and our stay at Bayete lodge was lovely and they were very welcoming. We are already planning our next mobile safari and wouldn’t hesitate to use Kingisher safaris and Pilots mobile safaris again and highly recommend them, they really do go the extra mile to make sure their guests have the trip of a lifetime.

Kingfisher listen to client wishes , then provide a safari package to accommodate those wishes .
5/5

Kingfisher put together a safari experience exactly as we requested and then their chosen safari partner Pilot Mobile Safaris delivered with a most spoiling service in terms of game seen and hospitality provided .

perfect organization
5/5

Thanks, Martin.
Everything was perfect—the lodges, the organization, and Mackair. You were always quick to respond to every request.

Kingfisher delivered on every count
5/5

This is a top notch outfit. No lodge can match driving, dining, and sleeping out in the bush. It's a 24-7 experience with Pilot and his wonderful crew. Best of all, Pilot knows where the animals are going before they do. We enjoyed sustained sightings--alone--of an hour or more up and down the food chain. We two parents with two adult children enjoyed an African experience of a lifetime. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
