The review below is the personal opinion of Gill Rees and not that of SafariBookings.
Botswana, Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, Zambia and the zambezi were all an amazing experience.
3/5

The tour was value for money, we stayed at some amazing places and the food everywhere was brilliant. We had booked this holiday not wanting or expecting luxury. We wanted 2 or 3 star guest house/ lodges for the experiences. There we some last minute changes which really annoyed us ( in the places we stayed) some were an upgrade which we did not really want. Our guides for the whole trip were brilliant. I would stay at all the lodges again, but not sure if I would use the same company. However we all loved it.

A very good company for African tourists with experience
4/5

The communication, service and value for money were very good.
The ideas and skills of the cook were incredible, as she was able to create the most delicious dishes using the simplest of ingredients.

Excellent experience!
5/5

We did a private camping safari tour with sekanka in July 2023. Everything from the start to the end was organized perfectly well, the team was so nice and helpful. We went with two kids, 9 and 6, and felt safe all the time. We had the most amazing sightings and could certainly not have had this experience on our own. It was definitely an experience we will never forget!

Great experience with a reliable team
5/5

The team of Sekanka travel have been great in organizing the tour in a flexible and complete way.
The guide was very expereinced and always available to satisfy our requests and to do the extra mile to make us live the best expereince possible.
We are a family with 3 kids and we were always feeling safe, even if living the savana at a close contact with animals.
The staff hasn been always helpful and quick to prepare tents and great dinner.
I recommend Sekanka travel for a great experience in Botswana!

An unforgettable experience thanks to our guides and the beauty of Botswana
5/5

From the first moment our guide Salani was concerned about making our safari a unique experience. We shared three incredible weeks together observing and photographing wildlife. The collaboration of the guides was essential to obtain spectacular images. Thanks to them we have beautiful memories. Joe was an excellent cook and he always made sure we liked the food. He also accompanied us with Namba and Diti who at all times helped us with whatever we needed. Many thanks to Tepo, who trusted us and took care of putting together our trip according to our needs as photographers. Totally satisfied with the experience we were able to enjoy, I hope we see each other again.

Exceeded All Expectations and We Had The Most Fantastic 4 Days
5/5

We did a 4 Day 3 Night Safari Tour from Maun to Kasane and it was spectacular!
From pick up to drop off everything was extremely reliable and was communicated well.
Our team was Salani, Deti, Joe and Boneface (apologies for the spelling) who made our trip smooth and enjoyable at every point.
Salani as our guide took us in a journey. He started off by showing us how to track the animals building the suspense and then when we found them it felt so much more thrilling. He told us so much and answered all questions but it never felt like a lecture. We spent the right amount of time with each animal and he had such a respect and love for the animals it was really lovely to see.
Deti and Boneface were our Tour assistants and responsible for the equipment and setting up camp. It was a pleasure to return from our night drives and have camp fully set up with the most impressive camping set up. Beds were made and very comfortable, our bags were already in the tent and the back section of the tent with toilet and make shift shower was a game changer. We even had towels rolled up be cute displays.
Joe was our cook and did the most amazing job of keeping us feed the whole time. There was always plenty to eat and it was all delicious, especially the crispy chicken. He catered well to the vegetarian in our group as well. He was also the secret spotter of the group and spotted cheetahs, owls and other hard to see creatures which was great.
There is a lot of driving on the tour but we found this very relaxing as you have some time to relax and take in the beautiful surroundings and animals.
Overall I would highly recommend this tour. You go through many varying terrains, see animals in many environments and each day is complexity new.
A big thanks so everyone involved, we love it!

Brilliant Botswana experience
5/5

Our guide, Selani, was fab and very knowledgeable. He was determined to find us all the best sights of animals and birds. He followed the animal tracks and knew all the names. Camping was an experience in the heat wave of 38 degrees but the team in the camp were great, especially the cook. The lodges were lovely and all the boat rides were great although Big Toro lodge needs to sort out their air conditioning. Highlights were seeing cheetahs and wild dogs up close, watching elephants swim back across the river at sunset and Victoria falls. Overall I can highly recommend Sekanka.
