Perfect relaxed and complete day on the Okavango with Extremely Wild Safaris!
Sia and his colleagues are very friendly and make your trip with the Mokoro on the Okavango unforgettable! The communication with Isa went smooth and easily. We could book a safari with him last minute and he made sure everything went like we wanted. We met the day before to prepare the trip, discuss... Read more the lunch we wanted, pickup time and what the day would look like. We were fully prepared.
The day itself was so relaxed and peaceful and beyond expectations. The delta is beautiful and you slide along the calm and peaceful water with a mokoro (traditional canoe). You go for a walking safari and have lunch in the beautiful nature, overlooking the hippo’s grazing and bathing (in our case). You return back with the mokoro and then the driver brings you back to the lodge. We didn’t have to worry about anything during the whole day, everything was perfectly planned out for us!
Best camping safari possible!
Isa is an incredible guide who runs his safaris extremely well. Camping truly is the best way to experience the bush, and his team takes care of every aspect--from meeting us at the airport, getting us across borders, setting up/taking down camp, to making sure we were well-fed and had unlimited beverages.... Read more Isa's talent at finding the various animals is a true gift, and he always positioned the truck close to them and at the best possible angles for taking photos. We always felt very safe--Isa's motto is "I have a plan, with another plan". He knew which animals could potentially get aggressive, and never put us in a place that could harm us or the animals. Every game drive was somehow better than the last, as we'd see things we had never even imagined we'd get to see. Admittedly, we had some initial concerns about having to wire the trip payment to him up front (he does not yet accept credit cards), but after much texting and then spending 8 days with him in the bush, I can say I have never met a more kind, honest, and transparent man who is completely trustworthy, and who truly wants to provide his guests the most memorable safari experience possible. He was even helping self-drive vehicles with directions to cheetahs, lions, and leopards we had just seen. His love of the animals and the wilderness is readily apparent, as he is an outspoken advocate for the reserves and for Botswana tourism. He is an expert not only on animals, but also birds, plants, and trees as well. His team is just as outstanding, with trained chefs cooking 4-course meals every night, and assistants who take care of the campsite and provide for our every need. We were so blessed to have 4 people taking care of the 2 of us! It was incredible to sleep in a tent with the roars of lions and elephants nearby, and then to wake up to find leopard tracks going through the middle of our camp the next morning. "Glamping" at it's finest! I give Extremely Wild my highest recommendation--there is no way I would trust any other company and will definitely stick with Isa for any future safaris we take.
Amazing Safari experience with Isa!
We (4 of us) just returned from an 11 day safari in northern Botswana and Zimbabwe with Isa, who is an incredible guide and wildlife tracker. I cannot recommend the camping safari experience highly enough if you really want to be immersed in nature and see far more than you would with the lodge tourism.... Read more Being right in the park means you have many more hours of game and bird viewing and it really makes a big difference in terms of what you ultimately see. Hearing lions roar and impalas snorting, birds calling, etc. from your tent every night was just magical. Isa and his team really know what they are doing in terms of safe, comfortable camping in the bush---the food was wonderful and all cooked over a fire and eaten under a lovely dining tent. Inside the tents, the cots were very comfortable and each tent had a 'bathroom' out back complete with a pit toilet (easy and doesn't smell at all) and a shower so we always felt nice and clean at the end of every day. We really can't wait to return and do another tenting safari with Extremely Wild Safaris.
Isa is knowledgeable and extremely attentative to the needs and desires of his clients.
This adventure was postponed twice due to covid. It is remarkable that Isa was able to keep both the company together and fully honor his commitment to me.
That said this is the best adventure tour I have ever been on. We saw everything that I desired safely and for a camping tour with comfort... Read more and style. Good. Simple food, well planned safari drives, and a command of the habits of the many species made for amazing photography and a remarkable two weeks.
Excellent with all arrangements to perfection
With Essa doing the safari in Botswana by camping all over is mind-blowing. He customizes the package according to your budget and when you land he is there to receive you, in the end, we will have no mind to leave him and Botswana.
