The little engine that could! Never thought we’d find a safari company we could afford and ❤️
5/5

We were a family group of 6 that wanted to travel only with our group. We knew the area and animals we wanted to see and the number of days we could travel. To say that Sekanka camp staff were beyond our wildest expectations is an understatement. Our cook was constantly amazing us with homemade breads and treats made in a camp fire stove box. She fed all of us including a picky vegetarian, and we loved every meal.

Our leader Lowe was the kindest, hardest working man who would do anything for you - and did. He will always be considered part of our family.

Our Guide Eddie was top notch. He knew every single animal, bird and plant we looked at. He could spot a hidden lion in a split second that we couldn’t see for minutes after he stopped and pointed her out. He knew every road and path in every park, was patient with our questions and game for anything we wanted to do.

We really never thought we’d find could find a safari for just the six of us that we would be able to afford. Once we got to Africa we were still afraid that maybe it was too good to be true and no one would pick us up - but Sekanka was there for us every step of the way. We would go back in a heartbeat

Sekanka Safaris - Botswana/Zimbabwe - Simply Brilliant
5/5

My wife and I traveled for our honeymoon in April 2026, and we arranged everything through Anna at Sekanka Safaris. From the very beginning, she was an absolute pleasure to work with—thoughtful, responsive, and incredibly attentive to what we were looking for. She crafted a wonderful itinerary that suited us perfectly, all at a very reasonable price.

Our guide, Thalo, was outstanding throughout the trip, seamlessly taking care of all our transfers and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Anna also selected fantastic accommodations and experiences at every stop, which truly elevated our journey.

We later learned there had been some challenges behind the scenes due to flooding in Botswana, but everything was handled so professionally that we were completely unaware at the time. In fact, the alternative stay at Xaoo Camp turned out to be exceptional, and the private safaris with our guide Joe were a real highlight of the trip.

It took a bit of research to find Sekanka Safaris, but it was absolutely worth it. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.

A huge thank you to Anna, Thalo, and the entire team for making our honeymoon so special!

5/5

Moniqua was the best safari guide, he woke up at 4am every morning to get us out to see all the animals, especially leopards.

We ended up seeing two leopards, it was incredible!

Couldn’t recommend anywhere better!

Real Botswana at its BEST!
5/5

We booked a Victoria Falls – Zambia Rhino Tour – Chobe River and National Park – Okavango Delta (Moremi) private tour!

It was perfectly organized and tailored to all our wishes. It was so easy to turn our “dreams” into reality. The lodges met our expectations—small, family-run businesses, exactly as we wanted! Great food and, above all, friendly people. Everywhere we had excellent private safaris and very well-trained guides. And every stay was optimized exactly as we wanted it.

At Victoria Falls there was an organized helicopter tour. In Chobe we had a private boat safari and great game drives. In Moremi we stayed in a tented camp—amazing! And every night there was a concert of the wilderness!

Organizing the trip was incredibly easy! Even when the road to Maun was closed following some heavy rain showers, a flight was arranged on short notice. We recommend Sekanka without reservation—local professionals who know Botswana inside out.

Sekanka created a custom safari that fitted our schedule and requirements perfectly
5/5

I could not recommend Sekanka enough for a safari tour in Botswana. We originally planned to book the Maun to Kasane tour, but also really wanted to see the meerkats, and the team were incredibly accommodating in helping us bundle everything into one package.

Throughout the safari, our guides were fantastic. Macha was with us the whole time and was an absolute wealth of knowledge. He took the time to explain everything we saw and was determined to make sure we experienced all the hard-to-spot animals (including lions and cheetahs)!

A big shout out as well to Monpati, Creature and Mr Booga for helping with transport, camp setup and the amazing food throughout the trip. It was an unforgettable experience from start to finish.

Experts in what they do, incredibly helpful and knowledgeable, and they put the customer first.
5/5

Our Safari vacation with Sekanka Safaris was highlight after highlight from start to finish. From the moment we inquired about our dream trip, everything was incredibly well organized. Anna and Tepo answered all of our questions and did a fantastic job making us feel comfortable.
When it was finally time to fly to Botswana to start our trip, we felt the whole itinerary was carefully and perfectly organized. We got see a lot of animals, including all of the Big Five. We were truly amazed by the special experience of camping in the Okavango Delta - falling asleep to lions roaring.
We would definitely recommend booking with Sekanka Safaris!
