Professional and experienced
5/5

My wife and I spent a great time during this Safary in Botswana.
We have seen a great variety of animals and expierenced wanderful time in the wild.
This has been achieved thanks to the good experience of our guide and Skytheme Safaris team, whom also organized a superb tented camp experience.

An incredible deep dive into Botswana's wildlife!
5/5

I booked the 4-Day Okavango & Moremi tour as a solo traveler with a general idea of what to expect, but all four days exceeded my every expectation. My guide, Liberty, and the rest of excellent team kept me laughing and learning. Liberty was a wealth of knowledge about the animal life (birds included), and he was able to help me spot wildlife I never would have been able to find on my own. His expert guiding enabled me to see elephants, hunting wild dogs, baby hyenas, lions, a leopard, and so, so many more animals. Each meal provided was its own masterpiece. The chefs cooked over an open fire (a skill in itself), and it was evident that love was poured into each meal. From fresh chocolate cake to a spinach frittata, I was never hungry. I could not have eaten better at a Michelin star restaurant. I was so glad the itinerary included the mokoro experience as it allowed for the Okavango Delta to be experienced in such as tranquil and unique way. I could not recommend Liberty and everyone else at Skytheme Safaris enough. The experience from start to finish was professional yet personalized.

Olly's team lead by Liberty were fun and very informative
5/5

Our Guide Liberty and his team KG, Dennis and Dickie took excellent care of us. Our tent and the amenities were comfortable. We had no want for warm water either in the makeshift sink outside the tent or for the bucket shower in our "ensuite". KG the chef prepared wonderful wholesome meals for lunch and dinner. We especially loved his morning porridge and the midmorning coffee and snack he prepared for us to have while out on the morning safari. Over 7 days we travelled from the Khwai Concession on the Okavango through Savuti to Chobe, all diverse habitats seeing a stunning array of species from pygmy mongoose, and honey badgers at one end to jackals, wild dogs, lions on the move, hippos, even a leopard, giraffe, all manner of antelope and herds of elephant. And I haven't even mentioned the prolific bird life. Without Liberty's astute eye we would have missed a number of these. His knowledge of these habitats, both the flora and fauna is extensive and is volunteered with clarity and patience. A safari worth repeating and recommending.

Adventure with a great team
5/5

It was a dream of ours to do a Safari and the itinerary that we built with Skytheme was simply breathtaking every single day.
The key for us was we wanted to see lots of wildlife as well as different landscape. Skytheme team delivered on all aspects. Liberty was our guide and not only was he a deep well of knowledge, he was fun and relentless in trying to find the elusive cats.
The rest of the team was also the cherry on the cake with KG the bush kitchen chef who baked bread daily and cooked amazing food innthe bush, Dicky and Dennis our mechanic and camp manager, we came every night to what fell like a second home campbase. I cannot recommend them enough !

A Trip of a Lifetime - a polished safari ticking all the boxes.
5/5

We went on the Six-Day Lion Trail - Botswana for 2people. It started in Maun, Botswana and ended in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. We arrived the day before the start of the Safari. Were met at the Maun Airport by Liberty, our guide for the safari, and taken to Crocodile Lodge, that Skytheme Safaris had booked for us. There we met by Olorato Chombo,(Ozzi), the Director of Skytheme Safaris, who led us through the details of the safari and answered our questions about it, over a cool drink.

The next day we were picked up after breakfast at the lodge by Liberty and taken into town to buy our drinks and other shopping needs. We met our chef for the safari and he asked about our preferences for breakfast and other meals. My partner and I are both vegetarian and the chef had been advised in advance so was well prepared for this. After that we went back to the lodge and our suitcases were packed into our safari jeep. We set off on the road to Moremi Game Reserve. Even before we got near the reserve we had already seen a number elephants, giraffes and other wild animals. Liberty, our guide, was full of information and happy to stop along the way to let us excitedly take photos. When we arrived we were very impressed to find our camp had been completely setup and waiting for us. There was a was a spacious two-bed tent with a self-contained bathroom attached and a separate dining room where we relaxed and had a drink, before our first evening drive. The camp was pulled down and re-established in two other camp sights over the next 5 days by a team of three very pleasant men.

That was great start to the whole safari where we saw and learned about many wildlife including lions, elephants, crocodiles buffalo, leopards, hippos, wildebeest, warthogs and meany smaller animals as well. With just two of us in the 8-man jeep we had plenty of room and freedom to stop and start when we wanted to, always with the wisdom, freely given knowledge and amusement of Liberty, our guide.
Each day there were two drives, there was iced water and the drinks we had bought available in the jeep and a morning and sunset table set up along the drive. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were meticulously prepared and delicious. Dinners were served under the stars. We visited three very different areas, the Okavango Delta, Savuti swampland and Chobe National Park in the dryer north.

At the end of the safari we were picked met by a separate team to get us through the Zimbabwe border and spend 2 hours viewingthe astounding Livingston Falls before being delivered to the Livingston airport in time to catch an afternoon flight.

The whole safari and trip was seamlessly coordinated by Ozzi, Skytheme's director, including dealing with our unplanned one-day delay in arrival. My partner and I both agreed was a TRIP OF A LIFETIME!
