Once-in-a-lifetime experience on safari in Botswana! Have been on safari in other African countries, and this one by far takes the cake. The wildlife is pristine and undisturbed, there is no over-tourism. Guides are knowledgeable and lovely. Food is exquisite. Highly recommend a trip to Botswana if you are looking to do a safari!

Bateti Tented Safari Lodge was beautiful but swimming pool was not available as was being renovated, and would have been useful in this hot month. Extremely good staff and good service.

We loved our trip to Botswana! We went to see the wildlife and had the chance to experience wildlife in several different locations from our drive between Gaborone to Maun and then on our safari in the Okavango Delta. I highly recommend trying to drive through part of the country/combine the traditional Moremi/Chobe safari with some other stops. We loved visiting Orapa - both the diamond mine and wildlife park are fascinating. We also found our visit to the Khama Rhino Sanctuary a huge highlight. We felt very safe in all our stops and did a lot of shopping in local stores etc.

We have been on safari before, having lived in Africa. However, this trip was not only exhilarating and exciting, but also extremely informative as our guide was superb and knowledgeable. The roads are difficult to negotiate, being mostly dust and potholed but it's all part of the experience. Maun airport, the jumping off point for the Okavango is airy, light and with sufficient seating. The team with whom we toured were delightful.

Beautiful nature and authentic wildlife

We did a 2-day safari in Chobe National Park from Victoria Falls. We'd heard that the eastern part of the park can have quite high traffic at times, but that was not our experience at all. Our safari guide was super friendly and knowledgeable, and saw amazing wildlife at very close distance. Highly recommend.

Beautiful safari in the Okavango Delta
Overall rating
5/5

The safari around the Okavango Delta was amazing. It was a completely different experience to a traditional safari. We got do a river cruise in a small boat too and saw so many hippos! It was incredible. We also drove around some of the reserves and saw lots of wildlife, sadly no big cats as the weather was a bit rainy (we did go during rainy season) but apart from that we still saw loads of animals - buffalo, giraffe, hippos, ostrich, elephants, jackals etc! We stayed in great accommodation by the Boteti river in tents but had a proper bed and shower and toilet facilities. It was a great experience and we would highly recommend Botswana! We will certainly be back!!

We went to Botswana with no expectations whatsoever, only knowing that the safari at Chobe could be a good experience. It turned out to be one of the most amazing trips we have ever done. The park, the nature, the animals - everything was juts spectacular. We camp in Chobe for 3 days and LT (our guide) was so knowledgeable of the park that it made the visit so much better. The hospitality was great and we are definitely looking forward visiting Botswana again!!
