Mosu Safari Tours provides a safe, reliable and luxury experience
Mosu Safari Tours met our expectations and went beyond. The team provided excellent service, and we had the opportunity to see many animals in their natural state safely. Our guide Kaisar has extensive knowledge of the local fauna from which we learned a lot. The chef, Avelino, and the camp assistant, LT, were very professional, and the food was delicious. Kemy, the operations supervisor, was diligent and willing to listen to suggestions.
Without a doubt, it has been one of the best experiences.

Great guide and Tour in Moremi Game Reserve
We just returned from a day trip to Moremi Game Reserve with our guide Kaiser. Not only that he was very careful and responsible to the nature and animal (many guides from other companies were not!), he spotted many animals from a huge distance and so we saw Jackal, Lions and even a Leopard.
That was the 2nd Trip with Mosu (Mokoro boat trip) and both were well organised in time with superb guides and have taken place in cars in very good condition.

Great safari company caring perfectly about customers
We experienced a beautiful 12 day safari starting and ending in Kasane and visiting Botswanas highlights as Chobe River Front, Chobe Savuti, Moremi, Okavango, Makgadikgadi Pans and Nxai Pans.
+ good quality and well maintained materials (tents, 4x4 truck, ...)
+ very knowledgeable guide
+ super friendly staff
+ excellent cook
+ very clean (new bed linen and towels every other day, wow)
+ felt very safe although in complete wilderness with animals snacking around
+ and last but not least amazing Kemy supporting us with itinerary and organizing the whole safari.
- we were expecting beds in the tents - although matresses were very confy and we slept well on the floor
- flying out of Maun would have been the shorter and cheaper option - keep in mind that most safari companies are operating out of Maun.
- it's an expensive experience, but worth every penny :-)

Mosu does everything it promises..and more
Every aspect of the operation is first class….from the booking administration to the safari itself.
The office administration is excellent and kept us informed throughout the booking planning process.
The tour guide..the camp staff ….were all amazing and made sure we had the best possible Safari.
I would recommend Mosu Safaris without reservation.

We loved it
I would like to recommend Mosu Safari Tours. Olivier and Fifi were so helpful to help us to set up our trip to Botswana. The country is beautiful in wild life. We loved it!

Amazing six day safari including visit to Victoria Falls
We went on a six day / five night safari with Mosu, camping wild for three nights and two at a lodge. First day at Moremi Xakanaxa, second at Moremi Khwai (North gate), third at Sawuti in Chobe then at a lodge in Kasani outside Chobe, finally visiting Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) for a day trip. Kazer (guide), Kilos (chef), Gorata and Niemond did an incredible job making our safari unforgettable and our stay comfortable.
We saw all kinds of wildlife (just to name a few: lions, hippos, buffalo, crocodiles, hyenas, mongoose, all kinds of eagles and antilopes) and enjoyed listening to Kazer's and Kilos' stories - they are so experienced! Victoria Falls was amazing as well, especially at this time of the year when the water is high - expect to get wet!
We recommend going for at least a six day trip or even longer if you're going for the first time like us, there is so much to see and learn. We also recommend the wild camping, with the crew working to make everything comfortable and Kilos' cooking it is like living in a top hotel, except that you're in the middle of the savannah.

Great local company to go on safari with!
We spent 10 days on safari with Mosu with 7 nights wild camping and 2 at a lodge at the end and had a truly amazing experience with them. Rather than talk about my trip in detail I'll tell you first about my selection process and how I came to choose Mosu.
There are many safari companies that advertise Botswana safaris but we had a few reasons why out of all these companies we chose Mosu. Firstly, like any frequent traveller we stopped by Trip Advisor almost immediately when we started our research and found that although a relatively new company on the scene they had received glowing comments from everyone who had left comments. In fact everyone had given 5 stars. On top of this we had decided that if we get down to a handful of tour companies that it must be a Botswanan owned and run company; we wanted to make sure our money was going into Botswanan pockets, not somewhere else. We also learned that Mosu was a relatively small company and that normally means they would go out of their way with regards service. One of the final things that encouraged us to go with Mosu was the ease of communication with regards tailoring what we wanted to do with their suggested itineraries. In the end we had created an itinerary that worked for us both, starting in Maun and finishing 10 days later in Kasane.
We had decided to do our safari just on our own i.e. no other tourists so it was just the two of us and the four Mosu staff with us. This gave us ample time to get to know the team very well and we got to like them very quickly.
As mentioned above the first 7 nights would be wild camping and although we're not impartial to a bit of luxury lodges too we decided to do this so that we could really feel at one with nature, to get real close to the animals and feel like we had done everything we could to truly experience this beautiful country. And we're so glad we did.
Our tour would start in the Okovango, then on through Moremi (Xakanaxa and Khwai), Savuti then the northern Chobe park by Kasane.
Over the course of our 10 days we would have some new experiences that we've never had before on other safaris in other countries. If you think national parks are alive in the daytime just wait until night time. The noises were just unreal. The low rumblings of elephants as they strolled round and through the camp, hyenas calling, lions roaring, frogs croaking, the birds, insects, it was just an attack on the senses from sunset through to sunrise. During the early hours you would hear loud elephant trumpeting and you could even feel the vibrations of lion roars through the ground.
Our guide, Kaiser, was a seasoned vet and an excellent driver too. He could spot things with his eyes we couldn't see with binoculars. One day he spotted a tree faaaar in the distance with vultures and knew there must be a kill around there somewhere which eventually led us to a black-maned male lion which I'd never seen before. He knew how to handle those aggressive Savuti elephants protecting their young and knew all the best places to see the animals. I have no idea how he could drive for so long all day, never hit a pothole AND see animals in the distance long before us. He was the best guide we've ever had.
Meal times were taken care by Kilos. He rustled up breakfast every morning and prepared lunch and the evening meal while we were on game drives so food was always ready when we came back to camp. A really nice guy with a good sense of humour and bearing in mind we were wild camping the safari was surprisingly really good and varied.
We moved around every couple of days which meant packing up, moving on and setting up camp again. This was done with the help of the two other helpers, who were Last and Nathaniel. Very helpful, very friendly and nice people.
The bush shower was a tall roofless tent with a big bag of hot water heated from the fire and the toilet was like a small tent and a sit-down seat over a hole, both of which worked very well in the wild.
By the end of the 10 days it was really sad saying goodbye to them and after our last drink together they each took it in turns to stand up and say their own little summary of our few days together which I thought was a very sweet gesture.
We enjoyed it so much that we are likely to come back next year and see some different parts of Botswana, but we will insist on having Kaiser, Kilos, Last and Nathaniel again as they were very much as important to us on this trip as the actual safari experience itself.
I would have no hesitation in highly recommending this company to help you tailor your Botswana safari. They were very professional, competitively priced, friendly and delivered the safari we had requested. The money went into Botswanan hands and ...... oh ... I forgot to say ... this country is absolutely stunning, don't miss it. But see it with Mosu.
