Great help with family tour
In June '22 I went with my 4 grown-up sons on a week safari out of Maun to Kwai and Moremi, some 100 miles to the north. We hired two Hiluxes with roof tents. I have been on self drive safaris before but it was all new to my big grown-up kids. Everyone had a great time - no one remotely disappointed and all keen to go again. *None of it would have worked without the help of Omezi Tours*. Gake organised and arranged everything patiently and effeciently, with close attention to detail - in advance by WhatsApp, phone and email with me in London. In fact twice, because the 1st time had to be cancelled because of the pandemic. She gave advice and organised the vehicles, the campsites (hard to do), the picking up and collecting of vehicles and help with the shopping for a week, the mokoru trip, the walking safari, and winding it all up at the end and getting us back to the airport. Nothing was too much trouble, and Gake did more than we could have expected. It was all on a very tight tight timetable (getting there and getting back to the patient partners looking after children in the meantime) - and there were complications with flights/timings and this and that, and goodness knows how we would have kept to timetable without help. It was great to use a local agent, who really was local and who seems to know everyone!

Amazing guides and hosts for Botswana!
Mike and Gake were the perfect local hosts for our adventures in Botswana. They are so cheerful and helpful. We did a stunning Mokoro trip and safari into the Okavango Delta outside of Maun and they also brought us up to Chobe National Park where we did a Game Drive in the Park and a river safari. It was amazing! Mike is a friendly and helpful guide who ensured that we got to see tons of Elephants, Hippos, Lions, Cheetah's and more! He told us a lot about the area, his background and why he is so passionate about being a guide.
They were also very flexible and responsive to our needs, as we had some special requirements. Communication was always clear and warm. Our trip exceeded our expectations so I'd definitely recommend them to anyone visiting Bostwana.
Thanks!

Safari with Mike
We had Mike as our guide and driver in Okavango Delta. Best guide, I've ever seen. he detected animals from far, when we didn't think of it, he could explain everything, he drove us near the animals for watching and taking great photographs. we always felt secure and safe and enjoyed our trip with him enormously.He always found a extraordinary place for sundowners!
I strongly hope to do another tour with him one day.
Thanks a lot Mike

Professional guide.
We had an amazing time together with Mike. He is a very professional guide, he has extensive knowledge about birds and animals in general. Mike tried to give you the best experience on Safari, explains everything about the animals and he's very dedicated. We could share everything with him en he is open for suggestions. The atmosphere in the camp was very relaxed.

Mike Tebogo our guide was outstanding and so experienced and service minded.
I had many, many guides and safari experiences as a travelling journalist and Mike Tebogo was over my expectations. I hope to bring my family from Sweden and take them on a safari with Mike.

The tour was educational, fun, safe, Mike and his team made all who joined his Tour welcomed.
Mike made sure that we knew what was happening each day, his service was great, nothing seemed to be a problem. He was firm when needed, especially around safety. It was first Safari, because of the experience I had, I am planning to do another in 2021 or 22....it is a shame I can't use Mike for the next tour, but does not do the part I wish to travel to.

Once in A Lifetime
Mike, our driver and fearless leader, took the time to get to know us and to alter the safari to our liking. He helped a group of strangers connect as friends. He was knowledgeable about the animals and their habitat. When given a request, he did his best to exceed what we wanted to experience this once in a lifetime safari. If and when I go back, I will definitely allow Mike to be our organizer and fearless leader again.

Fabulous Experience with First Class Guide
Mike from Omenzi Tours and Safaris was our Guide and Driver. His knowledge of the animals and their environment was amazing; he had the ability to track animals that many other groups did not get to see, and he always managed to place us in ideal position for photography and filming.
We camped in wildlife filled areas away from other tour groups, had elephants walking around our tents, visits from several species during the nights, two different boat trips up close to elephants and hippos, and many open air game drives. Whilst there was a lot of exciting encounters, we never once felt threatened or in any danger.
I would recommend Omenzi Tours and Safaris, and hope one day to get back to Botswana to travel with them again!
