Perfect Amazing Unforgettable professional comfortable
Eddy and his wife are exceptional. I have been on many safari's and by far I would rate this as the best. They are so accommodating, professional and serve gourmet food. The tents are huge. They supply everything, from bedding, towels, soap, wash basins, warm shower etc. Eddy is one of the most knowledgeable guides I have ever had and he will go out of his way to find the animals. I would highly recommend him. Do not do a private game reserve where they 'plant' the food for the animals. It is cruel. With Eddy you will see Africa, as it should be, in the wild.

Outstanding Experience
Eddy and his team from Kalahari Skies are a superb organization offering an excellent service on every level. All communication was swift and clear. They are reliable, honorable and work hard to cater to everyone's needs. The safari was extremely well organized and planned - as were all the camping facilities, accommodation, food and extras. The whole experience far exceeded all our expectations. Their extensive knowledge of the animals, birds, terrain and people greatly enhanced the experience. We speak of Eddy and his crew all the time and cannot wait to return. Thank you.

Great Mobile Safari experience in Botswana (with a correct price/value)
Trip to Botswana with Kalahari Skies July 2014
In 2011, we went for the first time to Botswana. Via internet, we’ve discovered Kalahari Skies, a company owned by Belgium Eddy Everaerdt and his French wife Mano. They are mainly specialized in mobile safaris , although other options are also possible.
This was a great experience for us. You can read our first review on the website of Kalahari Skies.
In 2014, we decided to go for a second time to Botswana. It was a happy reunion with Eddy and Mano. It was also clear Eddy worked hard to expand his business during the last 3 years.
We went on a tailor made safari of 12 days in Botswana. Organisation was as good as first time but with additional luxury aspects. The tents are new and much larger, having 2 compartments. This has the advantage to have a separate area in the tent for storage of clothing and luggage. We also had a chemical toilet in the tent, easy because no need to go outside the tent at night.
Experience was great again. Lots of game spotted, up to 50 lions and elephants were walking through the camp. At night, it happened that animals were sniffing at our tent. (Remember this can not be guaranteed, animals can only be viewed if they feel like showing up!)
Food was good and healthy. The day ended at the camp fire, drinking a gin-tonic and/or a glass of wine and telling typcial camp fire stories. The whole trip was with a personal touch.
Africa is captured in our heart. We will be back.
Thanks Eddy en Mano.
