The safari in Botswana was an impressive, intense, and unforgettable experience for us.
Our safari took us over 13 days from Maun to the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. After two days, we continued to the Central Kalahari Game Reserve. From there, three days later, we went back to Maun for an overnight stay. From there, we drove to the Okavango Delta to the Moremi Game Reserve, and from there via Khwai and Savuti to the Chobe River Front and Kasan, where our safari ended after 13 days. I had planned the course of the safari myself and discussed its implementation with Sekanka Safari Tours (especially with Anna and Tepo) by email. Sekanka Safari Tours perfectly realized my ideas. Everything worked out wonderfully, and we (four participants) together with the Sekanka team (five people; one guide, one cook, and three camp attendants) had a marvelous time on this extraordinary safari. The costs for this custom safari were reasonable compared to other safari tours.
All four participants were of the opinion that they would go on a safari tour with Sekanka again.

Long drives over bad roads, getting very close to the wild animals.
The Land Cruiser was old, but robust and in good condition. Our guide was an excellent driver. He knew not only the roads, but also the animals and plants we encountered. We had all the time we wanted to take photographs. There was always a plentiful supply of drinks, and any drink requests were fulfilled immediately. Wine was always served with dinner, and it was well chilled at our request. The tents for the night were always set up by a small support team before our arrival. We usually stayed for two nights, and after the first night, the tent was perfectly cleaned and tidied. We had our own cook with us, who prepared perfect multi-course meals for us over an open fire. We sat together around the campfire before and after dinner. We were a small group, four travelers and five people to serve us. It was wonderful, and we got along very well with the service team.

Amazing team made it a fantastic trip!
We were a family of 6 looking for a reputable company to take us on safari. Many were not in our budget but we found a couple that could work. Sekanka was the best reviewed so we reached out to get more info. Anna was quick to respond and answered all of our many questions quickly and with detail. They gave us packing tips, and peace of mind that they had us covered.
Once we started our trip, we had an amazing experience. Our guide Eddie knew so much about the area and every animal and bird we encountered. When we got to our camp the setup team had everything set up including a happy hour table and shade structure to make us comfortable. We can’t say enough about the team, they went above and beyond our expectations and worked so hard in the heat. Great food (and fresh baked bread!) made it even better. The value for what we paid was off the charts, I cannot recommend them more, especially for first time visitors. Thank you Sekanka!
Well organised and exceeded expectations
I did an 8 day small group tour to Botswana and Zimbabwe. Compared to other tour operators this was great value for money. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and easy to talk to. Nothing was too much trouble including ways to charge my camera battery whilst camping. He was very experienced so knew all the signs to look out for to maximise our opportunities to see a variety of wildlife. We got to see everything I was hoping for from a close distance. The team who put up our tents, provided hot water for showers and cooked for us were v friendly and efficient. The food was delicious and the accommodation comfortable. The campsites were in beautiful locations with animals passing close by. Transfers were seamless. I have travelled to over 80 countries and this was the best tour I have done.

Best adventure ever
It was a wonderful experience in an amazing country with a lovely crew. Great guide, super chef, and a fantastic team that prepared our camp beautifully every day. To see the wildlife of Botswana will be unforgotten for the rest of my life! This was a true adventure we will be talking about forever.
