Kudos goes to Mr. Rodgers the owner of Wild Safaris Africa for ushering us with lifetime memories
5/5

As a person born in Chobe, I have been to Chobe National Park many times before, so i thought i knew what to expect. Reminiscing & recapping the memories through the eye's of a 10-year-old, the tour of 2020 was one of its kind, I was totally drenched!, surpassed my wildest expectations, together with my wife, the game drive were meticulously organized by Wild Africa Safaris under tutelage of Mr. Rodgers Sibanda, the owner. We went from the heights of seeing a massive pride of lions basking in the canopy of big tree, our experienced guide drove closer to the pride for a perfect photograph. At each sighting, Mr. Rodgers Sibanda ensured that our vehicle was perfectly positioned to make the most of the photographic opportunities. As the day progressed we had a break for lunch prepared by Wild Africa Safari's chef, a delicate and sumptuous luncheon at the heart of Chobe National Park, the setting, arrangement was top notch.

We hold you with highest esteem

Never seen so much and divers wildlife as on this safari in Southern Africa!!!
5/5

Together with couple of friends we booked a 20day tented safari from 18.07 - 06.08.2019 with Rodgers and his great crew. We already visited Namibia, Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe and Tanzania but this was our first time in Botswana and first time in tents.
Although comfort and luxe is less than in lodges the contact with nature and wildlife is much more intens. Your experience of living in the bush with animals was great!!! Rodgers and his wonderfull helping crew do everything to make your journey as comfortable as possible. Meals are great and divers!

As this is much cheaper than lodges this gave us also the possibility to visit 6 different locations: Makgadikgadi Pans, Central Kalahari, Okavango, Moremi, Savuti and Chobe (Kasane region). All of them with different landscapes, wildlife and climat! We saw cheetah with welps, leopard (7 or 8 times), large groups of lions (also 5,6 times) great groups of elephants, zebras, antilopes ( at least 10 different species). On request Ridgers and I put a special attention to birds; I had more than 120 different species on photos, 40 never seen before!

Rodgers is a very friendly, experienced guide. Trust on him, he knows perfectly the behaviour of animals and put you always on the best position to take great pictures.

This is not the easiest safari holiday and if you like lodges for luxury, social drinks and strictly organezid journeys don't do it! On the contrary if you want to feel free and in contact with nature than this is a unique experience. The locations in the parcs and reserves give you this great opportunity to see fantastic wildlife on nearly individual base. Here you are looking to a cheetah and welps completely alone, to leopards climbing in trees with 2 other vehicels. In touristic places you are making the cue with 12-15 jeeps...

Thank you Rodgers and crew, this was unique!!!

Rogers Sibanda, with his experience and attention to detail, made this a very positive experience.
5/5

My wife and I just completed a 10-day Botswana Camping Safari, with Rodgers Sibanda as our guide. We were already experienced Africa campers and had high expectations for this particular safari. Rogers, with his competence and attention to detail, exceeded those expectations. His knowledge and skill in the bush is truly remarkable. Rodgers has a well-trained and capable 4-member staff that added to our satisfaction. Rodgers' communication skills are excellent and again we underscore his ability to clearly explain habitat and interesting characteristics of both animals and bird life. We didn't want this camping safari to end. It was pure enjoyment, with lots of fond memories that will live with us well into the future.

An incredible wildlife viewing experience!
5/5

My family of four completed a 5-day safari in Moremi Game Reserve with Wild Africa Safaris. The entire experience was just incredible. First off, Rodgers is a wonderful and knowledgeable guide who attended to every detail of our trip. He taught us so much about tracking, the ecology of the area, and the different wildlife species we were seeing, from leopards and lions, to all of the ungulates, to the many gorgeous bird species. His staff were friendly and helpful, and his chef, Mofat made the most delicious food, including freshly baked bread at every meal. One day we were surprised with a beautiful lunch set up on the side of a river, with hippos lounging in the water nearby. The tents were very comfortable, complete with showers and hot water first thing in the morning. Camping inside the game reserve each night was a very special experience, with zebras, impala, elephants visiting every night while we sat around a warm fire sipping gin and tonics (and sodas for the kids)! I highly recommend doing a safari with Rodgers and his staff.

Joyful in every way!
5/5

Rodgers was our guide for Moremi Game Reserve, Chobe NP and a sundowner on the Chobe River.

He is a very experienced guide and has excellent knowledge of wildlife and their behaviour.
He does not need a road map while driving his jeep, he knows even the smallest dirt roads by heart.

Rodgers has an open safari jeep that allows everybody to take nice pictures. The seats are very comfortable, and there is a secure space to store all your belongings far away from dust. You can even charge your cameras as his jeep is equipped with charging outlets. The fridge offers cool drinks that are very welcoming in the African heat. You can see Rodgers is very proud of his jeep as it is kept in a very prestine condition.

As he guided us around, you could feel that he will never stop loving his job. Surrounded by wildlife in picturesque Botswana, that is where Rodgers happiness lies. To have such an office must have been a dream come true!

Rodgers and his everlasting smile, we will never forget about him.

Keep up the good work Rodgers!
Wishing you a lot of adventurous tours in 2018!

If you are not sure about which guide to choose, you should definitely go for Rodgers!

Experiencing the wildest of Africa, best safari ever
5/5

We did a few tours with Wild Africa Safaris in October 2017 in Moremi near Third Bridge and in Chobe NP near Kasane including a sundowner cruise on the Chobe river. Rodgers brought us to amazing places and educated us on the wildlife and nature. For me the best safari I ever did and I have been a few times to Africa in the meantime. Rodgers has a background on nature and reads the environment to discover the wildlife, next to big five we also saw smaller wildlife like honey badgers and wild dogs, birds, reptiles and on all Rodgers has a good story. The vehicle is very luxurious clean and well maintained, I liked very much the comfort and the special closets to put your camera gear and protect it from dust. Being a photographer himself Rodgers understands what is needed to take good pictures, positioning the jeep in the best possible spot. Finally having someone who always wears a smile is certainly a plus as well. Rodgers...never change and until we meet again.
