What you should be asking yourself is "why should I use a local operator other than one from my own country"?
Its a good question... the answer to which stays firmly in the realms of knowledge and service.
Botswana is not like London, Sydney, Oslo or any city for that matter.... nor is the countryside here like any other outside of Africa or on our own continent. Here it’s a bit like the "wild west" in that we don’t live here for tea and croissants in the morning…. we live here because we love the bush. It’s intoxicating.
...An independent tour operator based right on the edge of the Okavango Delta...
We are proud of that statement and it says quite a lot. We have been everywhere… seen everything… done everything…. visited every lodge… spent literally months camping… acted as a tripod for a meerkat........ been charged at..... snarled at.... hissed at..... we are out there all the time honing our knowledge.
No-one is better placed to advise you on where to go and exactly why you should go there. We back this up with the kind of service that only a local operator can give you. From meeting you at the airport to saying goodbye after your safari, we are there, on the ground, to make sure all is OK.
Botswana is an extraordinary wildlife destination and plays host to some of the most diverse regions in Africa, from the Okavango Delta to the Central Kalahari, no other country has so much expanse of wilderness preserved for its flora and fauna.
With us you will not find anything other than good, honest and free advice, and if you decide to book then we promise to give you the best prices possible. Our offerings are quite comprehensive and full of information.
We at Safari Lifestyles have lived, breathed and worked in the safari industry for many years... after all, if we are not in the office organizing your safari then we are probably on safari ourselves.
