The review below is the personal opinion of Jeremy and not that of SafariBookings.
Well-intentioned, responsive, local, caring but maybe lack experience to deliver to certain standard
3/5

Generally communicated well and were very responsive in the period leading up to my and my 9-year old's 6D/5N Okavango camping safari.
Well-intentioned, attentive and caring team with good local knowledge during the tour period. BUT there were some significant issues that substantially negatively impacted the quality of the tour and our experience: (1) On our arrival in Maun, the team were not adequately prepared for our tour despite us having booked months in advance. We were left waiting for 3+ hours while the team "bought supplies". As a consequence, we left Maun late, arrived at and set up at our first camping location well after dark, and missed a scheduled game drive, (2) there was a big difference between the indicative photos of camping accommodation provided in the pre-tour period, and the actual accommodation when we were there, (3) after arrival the team often seemed unaware of the agreed itinerary, changes to it and their necessity/rationale were not well communicated to us, and some planned activities did not happen e.g., 2 game drives, walking safari, boat trip (though apparently sometimes for reasons beyond the team's control), and (4) there were no seatbelts for passengers in the vehicle. Overall, I do not think these issues were intentional and probably related to a lack of adequate experience in delivering a product to a certain level.

We are sorry if the tour didn't fully meet your expectations! What we can say is that we had to change the itinerary on short notice due to weather and road conditions. We were also considering the well-being of a minor in that regard. Although it is true that our company is still relatively young, we were trying to give you the best possible experience, also with the low cost we charged. So, this was not the reason for any possible inconveniences or similar; however, we are also somewhat disappointed about how some of our staff managed the planning beforehand, and we are sorry for this! We are considering to change this for future tours. Regarding the perceived mismatch of images and reality, we would like to point out the previously given disclaimer that details of a tour may be subject to changes.

Authentic Wilderness Adventures in the Heart of Botswana
5/5

I had the most unforgettable experience with Johills Safaris! From the moment our journey began, everything felt deeply connected to nature and Botswana’s wild beauty. The team — all local experts — made every day special, whether we were gliding quietly through the Okavango Delta in a mokoro or watching elephants wander near our tent.
The mobile camp setup was incredible — comfortable, cozy, and set right in the heart of the bush, so we could truly soak in the wilderness. Every detail was handled with such care and professionalism.
It’s not just a safari — it’s an adventure that lets you feel part of the landscape. If you want an authentic, personal, and soul-stirring safari experience, Johills Safaris is absolutely the way to go.

Professional all the way!
5/5

An African safari was on my bucket list and im trilled that I chose Johills Travel Agency to do this. After a long flight from Europe we got a wonderful and relaxing week in the Okavango Delta.
It was a highly memorable trip! The professionalism of the guide was exceptional, with a trained eye for spotting wild animals. And the cost for the trip was way less than the wonderful experience we had.
Thank you Johills for a life time experience!

Professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
5/5

I had an amazing experience with Johills Mobile Safaris! The team is professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the Botswana landscape and wildlife. The tour was well-organised, safe, and full of unforgettable moments. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a real safari adventure in the Okavango Delta!
