Reviews
Trip to Botswana
Robert was a great help with our last minute trip planning.
Everything went smoothly. Accom was great.
Amazing experience
The Wild Africa Travel Company were very accommodating when we requested a change to the original itinery.
We are so glad we got to get a variety of accommodation and safari's. Each was unique and we saw new animals every day. (like the honey badger, wild dogs, Cameleon) With the private safaris you get closer to the animals with less vehicles around but in Kruger there was plenty of animals around the river and surrounds.
Out of all the accomodation we stayed in, the Hilltop Lodge was the best. Once the water hole gets established the view will be even more amazing. Still needs a little work on food/wine service but it is still a very new facility. The guides were incredibly informative.
Unfortunately just before we went to Kruger Park they had a large fire around our lodges there. But incredibly there were still plenty of animals to view.
We went to Hilltop Lodge, then Motswari before going to Rhino Safari lodge and Plains Camp. This was our choice but on reflection I would recommend doing it the other way around as per the internet advertisement itinery.
We loved our experience.

Victoria falls and Hwange, 7 days in December 2014. Loved it!
We went to Victoria falls and to Hwange on safari. Got in contact with Robert just 10 days before we wanted to go and he did a great work with planning our trip! Quick replies, listened to all our needs and he was able to answer all our questions. Even though we had got all the information needed I was so nervous to see how the trip would turn out. We had nothing to worry about! Great accommodation and great schedule with things to do, time to relax and time to explore the areas ourselves. The safari tours were great, private drivers, that made us able to decide what we would prefer to see and where we wanted to go. Perfect! Highlight were the lion family of four, and the hundreds of elephants that crossed our way. I have nothing to complain about, from the start with contact with Robert to how the vacation turned out!

First-class service and flawless planning
Had a wonderful safari in Chobe Elephant Camp and Oddballs Camp.
Robert from Wild Africa Travel Company was extremely helpful, patient and precise in planning the safari.
Book here and you will have no worries and can focus all your attention on experiencing the wonderful country and wildlife.
One of the trips of a lifetime with heaps of animals, top class service and amazing experiences.
At every point during the organisation, planning and the trip itself, we found our experience excellent. The service and accommodations were great, with our more budget-conscious selections very adequate, whilst the more up-market accommodations we selected were top class. The guides (whose expertise you really depend on), the driving, boating and walking tours we did were fantastic - we saw "the big 5" within a just a couple of days, and kept seeing them, and so much more, for our entire trip to South Africa, Zambia and Botswana. We had great, (extremely) up-close and personal experiences with lions, hippos, leopards, buffalo, elephants, giraffes and rhinos as well as lots of other animals.
The scenery everywhere was spectacular and our trip to Victoria Falls for 3 days was fantastic (do the heli-flight and visit a local Zambian village, preferably for church on a Sunday).
It was our 30th wedding anniversary and we discovered that the company arranged for a very special, surprise, private, champagne dinner for two for our last night in paradise. Such personalized service!!
What a great continent, great people, great scenery and wildlife, all done and presented very, very well. We commend Wild Africa Travel Company to everyone who wants a special, trip of a lifetime!
Excellent service and loved our trip
Robert was extremely helpful over email as well as over a few skype conversations. We stayed at Umlani Bushcamp in the Timbavati South Africa (Kruger area). It was the best experience of our lives and we saw all the wildlife you could have ever hoped to see up close.
Highly recommended tour operator, all of our transfers were on time and we had no issues at all.

I received excellent service after my first enquiry to the day we left. Thank you Robert Francis.
The 9 Day Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park and Okavango Delta package was above all expectations. The accommodation at Zambezi Sun, Chobe Bush Camp and the Oddballs Camp is highly recommended for food, comfort and friendliness. The game drives at Livingstone and Chobe were amazing and the Mokora and walking safari at Oddballs a great experience with the Hippos in the water not far away. The Leopard was the only one of the big 5 not seen during our Package.

A genuine exciting experience with life long memories
We both thoroughly enjoyed the Wild Africa tour. The pace of the tour was such that you did not feel rushed and there was time to do your own thing among the organised events. The accommodation selected was well chosen that we felt like be had been there before as at each location we were greeted so warmly. The locations we stayed provide us with the best opportunity to see the big 5 up close and personal. Our guide Vincent was so knowledgeable about the flora and fauna and so well prepared that there were no delays. Recommend this trip to anyone.
A surprisingly excellent experience, totally enjoyable.
Well organised and executed:
Accomodation,
Food,
Safaries and Cruises
Bus pickups and travel.
All went extremely well, very happy with All the above.
