Great adventure, great crew! Go and explore Botswana with Walking Stick Travel & Tours!
We went on a seven-day private camping safari together with Philimon and his fantastic crew (Joe & Lucky). The communication with Philimon was excellent from the beginning to the end.
He is responsive, knowledgeable, and friendly. During the planning stage, he was not only giving us detailed information regarding the tour we booked from him, but also went beyond and gave us information and recommendations on which areas to include in our trip. Really appreciate his help and ideas.
The tour itself was a wonderful experience. Philimon arranged the transfer for us from Livingstone to Kasane and we spent the first two nights in the Northern part of Chobe National Park, close to the river. Being so close to nature and hearing the roaring of the lions and leopards at night is something special.
Everything felt safe and the equipment is good. Great tents, with a bathroom ensuite, and comfortable camp beds. We woke up early in the morning to start with the game drives and Philimon is doing everything to get you the best experience - he is going the extra mile. He knows a lot of people and all the guides communicate with each other in case there are some special sightings. We saw several leopards, many lions, and even wild dogs.
The meals were above our expectations. Every day it was a surprise what we would eat and the dishes were well-prepared. We also had some soup as starters and nice deserts. Joe is a very good chef!
We really enjoyed the great stories at the campfire after dinner. We learned a lot about Philimon´s life in Botswana and the small island in the middle of the Okavango Delta where he grew up together with Joe and Lucky. A lot of interesting and fun stories about the daily life and local traditions.
After the Northern part of Chobe, we drove to Savuti, Kwhai concession, and ended our trip in the Okavango Delta near Maun. The campsites were really good and the trip was itself was a good variation of landscapes and wildlife. The tour package was good value for the money.
It was special to spend the week with these three incredible people that grew up in the Okavango delta - surrounded by the wild animals their whole life. The crew has a lot of knowledge and Philimon spoke passionately about the animals and their behavior. The more you ask, the more you will learn.
Thank you again Philimon and crew for all your help and the memorable and amazing experience in Chobe National Park! We will never forget this!

Wild endless plain have ever seen before
Amazing Place to visit in Dry season, we managed to see wildebeest migration in Northern Serengeti it was wonderful time to see hundreds to wildebeest risking their life to cross the river while Crocodiles are on the base waiting any one will stack at the middle. We saw all big five animals except Rhino who will see in Ngorongoro Crater during our Safari
It was amazing for sure, you never regret to do a tour in Serengeti.

best trip ever
From Airport pickup to return to airport was professional, superb, and was an indication of the thoroughness and planningDriver Mabu picked me up and was my friend for the next 6 days. I had a time of my life and the highlight was an early morning visit and an unexpected opportunity to see a cheetah without any other human/vehicle pres3nt. Probably the best trip of my life

Great experience
We had a great experience with Hekima despite some initial difficulties that were sorted out perfectly. The company helped us to modify a tour to make it more suitable for us and they were always in direct contact with us in case we needed anything. I would recommend it.

Europian Professionalism and warm African heart
We spent 5 safari days in Kenya (Masai Mara, Lake Naiwasha, Chyulu Hills, Tsavo East). This agency was recommended to me by some friends who made a safari with them last year.
Everything was simply perfect : Simon, "the boss", is always present by web site, Whatsapp, email, with African geniality and great professionalism. Everything was clear and simple from the beginning of our relationship to the end of it, and during the trip as well : he sent to me a quotation in advance, with prices and accomodation proposals, we chosed the most suitable for us and he booked everything and everything worked perfectly. We also asked him to book a hotel in Nairobi for the night of our arrival and a restaurant in Nairobi for the night of our departure, and he arranged anything.
Our guide and driver Moses maybe is not the "always on time man", but he's really experienced, very sympathetic and a very good driver.
So thank you all, guys! We hope we can meet you next time we'll come in your amazing country.
