It was a pleasure be with them
Everything was ok, we saw a lot of animals. We could see 4 of the big 5, the driver was a nice person.
I would improve the installations of the camp and jeep, but in general was ok.
The most important thing is that we saw many animals.
Naomi was all time listening to us and it was a good assistant

Wild for Game made this a trip of a lifetime
We took the 11-day Northern Explorer Trip with Wild for Game in August of 2025. From start to finish it was amazing. Not only did we see an astonishing amount of diverse wildlife, but it was the quality of the sightings that were off the graph.
I’ll start with our phenomenal guide Marks. His vast experience, deep knowledge of the areas we visited and keen interest in the client’s experience makes him an exemplary safari guide. He would listen to the calls of the animals at night and develop a plan on how and when to see them best the next day. His tracking skills are ridiculously good, and we were often the first or only ones at lion prides, cheetahs and leopard (with or without a kill). He is very aware the getting the best position and sunlight to view and photograph the animals. I hope my photos here prove that.
Our chef Pula was fantastic, putting together meal after meal (including soups and desserts) of great food. He even had snacks/tea/coffee/hot chocolate for all game drive breaks. His ability to plan and cook a variety of cuisines with just a fire is impressive. He always made ample amounts; we could never finish all that he made.
Chucks, our cabin steward and MD & MT (our waiters) were super as well. They always greeted us on return from game drives with enthusiasm, a cold towel and a refreshing cold drink. They made sure our cabins were clean & orderly. The hot water bottle in bed each night made the nighttime really cozy.
My advice, don’t try to do this trip as a self-drive. Even if you are an experienced camper, there are no signs in these vast areas to navigate around (even with GPS), the terrain can be very challenging (rocky roads, objects to avoid, very deep sand and in places marshy water. We saw many breakdowns with others. On top of that, looking for wild game is not for amateurs. Driving around just searching does not work, is inefficient and following others is not reliable. You are there for a limited number of days, make them count by hiring professionals, well worth the money and you’ll have a better time.

Amazing Safari Experience! Highly Recommend!
In August this year, I chose Lappet Faced Safaris for an 8-day safari tour, and the whole experience was absolutely wonderful!
From the airport pickup to the daily arrangements, everything was smooth and well taken care of. Our pickup driver Eric was warm and thoughtful, making us feel at ease right from the moment we landed.
During the safari, our guide and driver Joseph was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He not only helped us spot incredible wildlife up close, but also shared fascinating insights about the animals and the ecosystem, which made the journey even more enriching.
I also really appreciate Francisco, the company’s manager, who was always patient and attentive. From booking to pre-trip communication, he ensured everything was clear and stress-free.
This 8-day safari was truly an unforgettable experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend Lappet Faced Safaris to anyone who wants to witness the wonders of African wildlife!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Once-in-a-Lifetime Khwai Safari Adventure with Xaa Safaris
Our journey with Xaa Safaris began in Gaborone, flying out of SSKIA to Maun International Airport, before continuing the adventure by road to Khwai. From the moment we set off, everything was seamless, well-organized, and infused with the excitement of the wild awaiting us.
We camped in Khwai for three nights, and every day brought unforgettable safari excursions. The abundance of wildlife was beyond anything we imagined. We witnessed a lion pride in action—including the raw and powerful moment of lions taking down a baby zebra and feasting right before our eyes. On another drive, we followed a cheetah hunt for impala that was interrupted by giraffes alerting the prey—only to witness the same cheetahs suddenly seize the opportunity to take down a warthog instead. Watching them feast under a tree was simply breathtaking.
The magic didn’t end with the game drives. Our campsite itself was alive with nature: hippos emerged from the water at night to graze nearby, their sounds carrying through the darkness, while the deep, commanding roar of lions echoed most nights, reminding us we were in true wilderness.
Of course, Khwai’s resident elephants, zebras, giraffes, kudu, and impala never failed to make appearances—beautiful daily encounters that completed the safari experience. A night drive gave us yet another rare treat: spotting a hyena pack at their den, with playful baby hyenas venturing out under cover of darkness.
From start to finish, the experience was flawless. The team at Xaa Safaris delivered not just a safari, but a true adventure filled with professionalism, warmth, and world-class hospitality. Whether by water or on land, Xaa Safaris offers the kind of bush experience that leaves you deeply connected to nature and longing to return.
I cannot recommend them highly enough—this was truly the safari of a lifetime!
