Absolutely worthy
Our guide, Kem, was very professional all the time and did his best to show us all the treasures of Moremi, which included several lions and 4 cheetahs, not bad! Also the food provided for breakfast and lunch was abundant and good, and the blankets for the ride in the cold morning were really appreciated.
All in all, it was a memorable experience.

Well organized great experience
The whole planning of the safari in the Okavango Delta was very good. Especially our pole man - guide Freddy was excellent in spoting the wild animals and in protecting us from them during our walking safari on the island. Great experience.

Very professional and involved
2025 was a second time when we chose the Shipungo to arrange our safari in Botswana. We spent 10 nights in Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pans (once overnight ‘under stars’ next to Gweta, you should try this !), Moremi and Savuti. The trip was organized very well, there were no problems at all. Very skilled and experienced camping staff was providing us a bit comfort in a bush conditions as cleaned beds, hot shower and so on. The meal was prepared in perfect way by the chef Shine on the time and very tasty. We had the opportunity to see unspoiled and wild nature, were guided by Kem. He knew the terrain and the habits of the animals very well. Looking for animals is obvious activity in the safari trip, but the whole surrounding, environment and ‘wildness’ is worth to see and touch; they know how to do it.
Shipungo is flexible and reliable, they can advise where and when you can go to see interesting things. They have reasonable prices.
It was excellent!

Getting up close to the wilderness
We had a wonderful time on our Okavango delta mokoro safari! Our guide and chef were amazing and it was incredible getting up close to the wilderness - an experience very different from a car safari. At Shipungo, they were very responsive and they even lent us their binoculars.

Our trip with Shipungo exceeded our expectations in all respects.
We did a 10 day camping safari in Chobe River, Savuti, Moremi National parks and Kwai concession. The four of us had a tremendous trip with Shipungo.
The office was responsive and able to accommodate our starting point in Victoria Falls. The logistics of crossing the border were perfect.
Once on safari, our guide Kem was really great at finding animals then getting us in the best position to view them, especially the cats, hyenas and wild dogs. He also has extensive knowledge of the fabulous Botswanan birds. We were thrilled by the variety and number of animals that we saw.
The campsites were always neat and in beautiful places. Chef Shine made incredible meals over a wood fire. Other camp team members OT and KG were always friendly and helpful.
We also really enjoyed 2 boat trips (on the Chobe and Kwai rivers) organized with Shipungo's partners.
