Fantastic group for a once in a lifetime vacation!
My wife and I just got back from our trip and you nailed it! Wow, what an incredible experience... Just amazing. We asked to see large cats and your itinerary was ideal. We saw lions, leopards and cheetahs, including leopard and lion cubs. We even got to see wild dogs and pups.
The mobile safari was fantastic. It was our favorite mainly because it felt like an African safari and the tour group was great. The camps were great too and we saw incredible wildlife in both areas, Kwara and Lebala.
Thanks for making our vacation one we will always remember. Your advice was spot on!

Great detail - Astonishing safari
Safari Lifestyles were by far the most responsive and knowledgable of the 3 tour operators we looked at... they were the only one local in Botswana and it was clear from the outset that they stood head and shoulders above the rest... Very happy we chose them.
Firstly we wanted to go to Chobe... where the other two operators just provided lodge recommendations, Roger asked us why we wanted to go to Chobe, stating that it was a very busy area... he was right as we just wanted to go for the name and have since found out that there are much quieter areas... The rest of Botswana was simply unmissable
We took Safari Lifestyles advice and ended up having the best 9 nights imaginable. Unbelievable wildlife experience.
Information was very quick, payment was safe and feedback superb... backed up with a comprehensive website with all the lodges.
Already planning a trip in 2019 and will definitely be using them again.
Great Tailor Made Safari in Botswana
I came across Safari Lifestyles through safaribookings.com and I'm very glad I did. I corresponded with Roger for several weeks before settling on an itinerary. Roger was a mine of information and was able to supplement and/or correct the information I had researched for myself. The result was that my wife and I enjoyed a superb tailor made safari in Botswana with an extension to Victoria Falls. Thanks Roger - great work!

Roger is tremendous at planning a great safari
Roger from Safarilifestyles.com was great planning our safari. He listened to exactly what we wanted (game key more than amenities), answered a multitude of questions via email, made suggestions, and changed things as needed. His website is excellent and his follow-up making sure everything worked perfectly was great. I was nervous wiring a large amount of money across the world but need not have been, everything was delivered as ordered.

Great planning by the safari Lifestyles team
We had only been to Kenya a long time ago and had no real experience of southern Africa.... we considered a few other countries to go to, and were convinced by Roger mainly due to his knowledge and and quick responses, that Botswana and the Okavango was the place to vacation.
We are so happy and had an awesome time in the lodges... brilliant staff and guides.... seriously a trip of a lifetime... next time a camping safari to get a little more "scared"... beats LA any day.

We would like to thanks Safari Lifestyles for a great trip..!!
We have just returned from a private safari staying in Botswana... we are a family of 5 with children and were not sure how we could take this dream holiday...
We spoke to many travel agents but we chose Safari Lifestyles because they answered everything very well.
It is difficult in Botswana to have 3 children in camps so they suggested a private safari staying in tents for our family, this was a fantastic suggestion and we stayed for 9 nights in moremi and savuti.
We saw many things we only have dreamed about.
It was very well organised and in large tents with a lovey guide... the food was really very good and we felt very safe.
Thank you to Safari Lifestyles for everything

Best holidays ever...and we will for sure come back
Our entire Safari-tour was a fantastic outstanding experience that we never will forget in our lives. We even had the “must come back” feeling at the end of the tour, and we will do it. All was very well organized, from the beginning and we always felt safe and comfortable. From the first contact with Roger, we felt the professionalism and the service orientation with an amazing quick answers that made us feel at ease at all points. Great job Roger!
We spent two weeks in Botswana, first part was a fly-in safari and the second part a mobile safari. We loved both amazing experiences... but must said that in the mobile safari we felt much closer to the Bush. The guide and staff were amazing knowledgeable of the nature.
Thanks to Roger and the Safari Lifestyles team for having made this holiday trip a real adventure and outstanding experience, we recommend them without hesitation!

Not to be missed!
The communications with Safari Lifestyles was really very good ... we dealt with Roger and his wife Dee who never seem to go to sleep.
With the time difference between Vancouver and Botswana we Skype called a few times which seemed the easiest way to understand all that was on offer. Roger's initial email was very detailed and its obvious that there is much more to Botswana than just going on safari.... there are so many regions and variations and we were taken through all the options with obvious knowledge.... Roger even sent us wildlife shots he had taken himself from most of our camps to show what is actually there.
We eventually chose three lodges and charter flights, plus a two day extension to a beautiful lodge on Zambia.... This really couldn't have been better.
Needless to say we are coming back!

Back at work... wish I was back in the bush!
We have just got back to Perth and I'm sitting here at work wondering why we left Botswana.
It was a bit of an extending holiday including South Africa, but without doubt the highlight was our lodge safari in Botswana.... Safari Lifestyles got it just right, nothing too pretentious, relaxation with exciting wildlife.
In Australia we don't really have an equivalent to the Okavango Delta and compared to home the wildlife is spectacular... we saw every cat imaginable, including the nocturnal ones like a caracal...
We would definitely use Safari Lifestyles again as they were so hospitable and we always think it is better to use a local outfit with great knowledge.

Remote and Beautiful Botswana
We are a family of 7 and we have dreamed of touring Botswana for many years. Only now did we get the chance to visit this amazing wildlife..
We chose Safari Lifestyles as they answered all of our questions very well and honestly... We thought we would like to go to lodges but we realised this would be too expensive. Safari Lifestyles suggested a private camping safari for just our family...
We were not so sure what to expect but Roger gave us much information and made sure we were very comfortable...
We stayed in very wild areas and no one else was with us for the whole trip. Our guide and food were really better than we expected and there was not one animal we didnt see.. including lions close to camp at night.... I didn't sleep that evening but we were very safe.. We are from Denmark and this was a real adventure for us.
This was the best holiday we have ever had and it was our first safari....
We would say that Safari Lifestyles is very good and listened to what we wanted and helped us with everything... Roger even came out to see us for one evening for dinner in his own car.
Wonderful.
