I strongly recommend Moonlight Safaris. They deliver a great service.
Moonlight Safaris are treasure if you are going to Botswana. They are doing their jobs with love so they shown us everything that we asked for. We have a chance for 6 days to 9 times leopards.
I strongly recommend Bogosi from Moonlight Safaris. He is doing great job.

Professional team!
We got in touch by email and then via WhatsApp. They answered us very quickly.
They even came to get the money at our campsite, because we couldn't move our van.
We spent a full day in the national park with a very nice and professional guide. He allowed us to see the usual wildlife and even a group of lions, and even 2 leopards! Sure, we have been a lot lucky... But the guide knew a lot of things about the animals and proficient to guess where we could try to meet them.
We had an unforgettable experience!

Incredible safari filled with animals and great service!
Incredible experience that exceeded my expectations! From the beginning organization and planning was excellent. We had some special requests for the meals, since my wife doesn't eat meat, and they were able to accommodate us nicely. The guys were friendly and hard working. The guide was knowledgeable and a good driver (we saw plenty of self-drive people stuck in the sand). As far as camping goes, it was quite posh. They set up everything for you, cook you excellent meals, and even give you warm water to wash up in the morning, and an opportunity to shower (camp shower). Much nicer than I expected. We saw solo many animals! Here's a list: Hippo Lion Leopard Elephant Hyenas Giraffe Gnu Impala Kudu Mongoose Black back jackal Wild dogs Water buck Water monitor lizard Steenbock Zebra Crocodile Sable Birds Red billed horn bill Lilac breasted sholla Copper tailed cuca Guinea fowl Crowned clover African fish eagle Stork Grey Lorry (go away bird) Marabú stork Ibis And those are just the ones we wrote down. Beware the days are very hot, but the nights get very cold, so bring warm clothes also. Blankets were provided, so we managed. One unavoidable thing was there was a lot of driving on rough roads, and we were pretty worn out from that. Overall amazing experience!

Mr Bg is the most knowledgeable guide you will find around
Best safari experience in savuti and chobe national park with moonlight safaris. Saw all of the cats and all the animals you could think of from elephants to lions to leopard and even found a pride of lions feeding on an elephant .Mr BG was extremely knowledgeable and went out of his way to accommodate us and all our needs. If you are ever in botswana or the chobe area don't miss the opportunity of using moon light safaris you won't be disappointed

It has exceeded our expectations - the perfect Tour !
In August I did a daytrip in Savute with my wife and two daughters 14 and 10 with Moonlight-Safaris and the very experienced Guide Bogosi Kakambi.
The drive itself through the deep sand was an incredible experience.
We were lucky to observe a leopard stalking an impala herd. We stayed with the leopard for a long time before finally disappearing into the bushes.
Bogosi Kakambi drove through the Savute Marsh. When we discovered a buffalo carcass, he explained the importance of the interaction between animal and nature.
Behind a bush in the shadow, Bogosi spotted two lionesses. We could take phantastic photos.
It was an exciting game drive especially by the super nice and very knowledgeable Guide.
Then two days later we made a day trip to the Chobe, of course again with the best guide ever “Bogosi Kakambi”.
We saw big herds of elephants and again our guide could explain a lot about these wonderful animals.
He tirelessly searched for animals and tirelessly answered our questions about animals and nature.
From the morning at 7.00 to the breathtaking sunset over the Chobe he accompanied us with joy and patience.
We had two wonderful enriching and exciting days that we would never dream of.
Thanks a lot to Moonlight-Safaris and Bogosi Kakambi.

Reliable and knowledgeable safari operator for all of Botswana parks and reserves.
In August/ September, 2021 I and 7 other friends of mine had the privilege to do with Moonlight Safaris 6 nights moible camping safari in Savuti, Khwai Concession and Moremi Game Reserve.
The owner of the company, B G, was guiding and in charge of the trip. Amazing experience in every aspect. We used public campsite in Savuti and Moremi, in Khwai - accommodated. B G is a very experienced wildlife guide with great knowledge of the animals, including birds and an excellent driver, as well (roads are mostly deep sand and quiote challenging to negotiate).
We had fabulous sightings in all the parks/ reserves. In Khwai Concession, BG found a large pack of wild dogs and we spend more than an hour alone with them before other vehicles started to join us. Huge prides of llions in Savuti, lots of mamals and birds everywhere. B G knows how to position the vehicle for optimal light for photography, finds great spots for sunrise and sunset shots.
I have done many safaris in Africa and do have a broad basis for comparison and I would recommend without hesitation B G and Moonlight Safaris for any type of wildlife trip in Botswana.
I and a number of friends are goint to do with them combination of the above itinerary plus Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, the Chobe River area of Chobe National Park and Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.
Thank you, B G and see you again soon!

What an incredible experience. Truly one of the best times of my life.
What an amazing trip. It started with a boat tour of the Chobe River. We saw so much from the boat and it gave us a unique perspective. We then took a drive through the park to see a large variety of wildlife. Elephant, Giraffe, Zebra, Kudu, Impala, and on and on. The guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. He knew where to go and exactly what to look for. We then camped under the stars and enjoyed delicious food cooked over the camp fire. Never have I slept so soundly. Morning we woke to an amazing breakfast and out into the park for more wildlife. A few lions made it a perfect trip. I will be back and encourage anyone considering to check out Moonlight Safaris. You won't regret it.

It is possible. Extraordinary safari experience without luxury and WiFi thanks to Bogosi
Booked the safari for 2019, but due to corona started in 2021 with 2 teenagers aged 13 and 15. We actually wanted to book a self-drive safari and were glad that we chose Bogosi, who has contributed to the success of this tour through his many years of experience. A tour with a guide also gives the driver a holiday feeling. We're talking about 6 days of African massage, as Bogosi used to fondly say, since there are no paved roads from Maun to Chobe. Bogosi drove with us over paths that we didn't even recognize as such and would not have dared to drive alone for fear of breaking an axle, always looking for the best spot, of course. We saw all the animals that the national park has to offer and there were a lot of them. Whether it was giraffes or elephants in the middle of our path, herds of lions gathering strength for the next hunt, leopards sharing pumba or the lazy cheetah resting in the tree, Bogosi always had the right nose. His open safari car with three rows of seats made the trip even more enjoyable than in the closed, air-conditioned pickup. We slept the 6 nights at 3 locations in large, high-quality igloo tents that were very quick to set up and take down. Also the sophisticated mattress system. One of us wouldn't recognize the campsites as designated campsites, somewhere in the middle of nowhere, but that was the charm of the trip. Although hyenas and anteaters frequented our camp in search of our kitchen supplies, our chef Timo always guarded our camp well. Timo is a real bushman, who conjured up real miracles on his small lattice over the fire and always gave us security. We didn't know what we were getting into and when Bogosi picked us up with the car and trailer we weren't sure if this could be really great, but it was and we would do it exactly the same way again and again. Thank you, a great experience - also for teenagers!

Outstanding Tour Guide and Host
We arranged an eight-day camping safari from Maun to Chobe, Botswana in January 2021 for our group of seven friends (Six are in our late 70s). Four are residents of Colorado and three from Canada. Bogosi Kakambi ("BG") and his staff gave us a terrific tour. My wife and I have traveled frequently to many southern African destinations since 1996. This was one of the best safari experiences we have had and certainly exceptional value for money. BG is an exceptional man and an exceptional guide. He and his team (Timoth and Gift) responded to our every request. The meals were excellent. The vehicle was perfect for our group, even on the roughest January, rainy season, roads. Game viewing was outstanding as well. We have never seen so many elephant. And on our last day in Chobe National Park, we were treated to a pack of Wild Dogs around our vehicle. A morning mokoro (traditional canoe) excursion in Khwai and the Chobe River boat excursion were memorable as well. At the end of our tour BG personally drove us to Victoria Falls for the final stop on our tour. We would not hesitate to recommend BG and Moonlight Safaris to anyone who is looking for a first class African Safari Adventure.
My wife and I returned to Chobe the following year (August 2021) and went on a memorable day-tour from Kasane to Savuti. BG was our personal guide on that trip and he gave us another excellent tour.
