Travel Creations Botswana A++ (David, Machine and the Crew)
We spent 20 days with Travel Creations Botswana...going from Maun north to Kasane. We started communicating with David early (a year in advance), and he was always polite, fast to respond and incorporated all our suggestions (eg., avoid the pans near Maun in the dry/hot season). Along the route, he met us a time or two to deliver supplies we requested (diet ginger soda; toothpaste; soap and a better inverter for the car battery so we had electricity to charge phones/camera batteries etc). We would highly recommend bringing Starlink (and share it with the staff. Since we were in the middle of nowhere for 20 days, being in communication with people back home, or knowing the News - that was essential. And because the staff was away from their families, they could keep in touch with their kids and wives). The cook, MACHINE, is truly amazing - the food was incredible - and varied. We don't know how he did it over an open fire (especially the fresh bread) - it was great...we never went hungry or disappointed...and had desert almost every night was well. Our recommendations: do your research on where you want to go - and how much time to spend in each place We liked Savuti, Moremi...less so Kwhai. The Mokoro (boats) on the water were fun - but for 2 trips only. Finally, we saw others who payed much more for similar trips with similar safari companies - about the only thing the extra money got was a nicer (newer) vehicle. Save your money, and go with Travel Creations Botswana - they are efficient, hard working - will look out for your best interests...and easy to work with. David is great...Machine is the best cook...and bring a headlamp that has a red light setting (so at night you don't attract insects when eating or walking).

Travel Creations delivered the experience we wanted!
My wife and I wanted to experience true wilderness camping in Botswana, and Travel Creations delivered just that. Camping for two nights in Chobe at the Mababe depression, then two nights at Khwai concession, we were able to get that experience. With just the two of us and our incredibly knowledgeable and very amiable guide Jame, riding around in an open Land Cruiser, our minds were blown by the landscape, the weather, the people, and most certainly the animals. At camp was a friendly camp hand (Jomo) and a talented camp chef (Ona). They set up our spacious tent (with ensuite) and comfortable dining area, waiting after each game drive to serve us the most delicious meals. The food and service they provided was lodge-quality, but we were in the bush! If you are looking for a genuine, reasonably priced, private multi-day mobile safari experience with an expert guide and fantastic service, I would highly recommend Travel Creations Botswana.

Botswana up close and personal
We were a party of five who spent two weeks under the excellent care of Travel Creations Botswana in a mobile tented safari from Maun to Victoria Falls. Right from the outset organizing an itinerary David’s flexibility and super quick responses including rescheduling as Botswana has just had the wettest summer in decades (Moremi closed at short notice) were very impressive.
The team included a guide and driver, a cook and two others to set up camp and they all did a magnificent job. All conveyed that their goal was to make our trip comfortable and memorable. The catering for vegetarians was also very well done.
Our guide was very knowledgeable about the game and also the birdlife and trees of the area. Due to the experience of our guide and good tracking we were able to find lion and wild dogs and even a leopard pair mating.
For those not looking for the luxury of a lodge but the sheer enjoyment of being alone in the bush with local people with whom one can connect I can unreservedly recommend this local Maun company. The tented mobile safari offered was in all aspects a great experience.
A big thanks to Screamer, Machine, Jomo and Ona, and of course David.

Outstanding experience, everything we wished for!
A lot of value for money and an outstanding experience. Our guide was a nice guy, and together with the other guys that operated our mobile tented safari it was an awesome experience - 100% recommend this company!
A wonderful day lead by a knowledgeable guide.
We joined a 1-day safari to the Moremi Game Reserve from Maun. We were collected promptly from our hotel for the drive to the Moremi Game Reserve. Although we visited during the ‘wet’ season when the animals are dispersed, we were shown an excellent variety of both fauna and flora. The highlights for us were spotting a cheetah resting under a tree, 3 jackal cubs playing under a bush, a small herd of batchelor elephant bulls bullying a lone hippopotamus bull in a watering hole and African Painted Dogs. We also saw plenty of elephant, giraffe, buffalo, zebra, impala, waterbuck, red lechwe, baboon and numerous wild fowl.
Our guide took great care of us, ensuring all our questions were answered, and more importantly that we were well fed and watered. He was very knowledgeable of the environment and was always willing to broaden the discussion to explain the various interactions between the various animals, plants, etc, bringing the terrain to life. He also had excellent all-terrain driving skills which are necessary for the park roads.
We were returned to our hotel at the scheduled time.
Am area for improvement is eye-care for the guides. Vision is all important in life, and it would be re-assuring to know that the guides have been trained in care of their eyes, both while game-spotting in the harsh African sun and while driving without windscreen protection. I offer this advice having being raised in Africa as a child when the perceived wisdom was not to provide children to ‘toughen-up’ their eyes; needless to say my eyes were damaged and I have already had to have cataract surgery on both eyes.
