Could be better...
The contact during the booking was OK - they were quick and detailed in their responses. We exchanged many emails, but none of them mentioned that the Boteti River has been completely dry for several years. However, about two weeks before our arrival (when everything was confirmed and fully paid) we received an email informing us about the change of plan due to drought. The Boteti River does not exist, the Okavango Delta in the part we visited is completely dry!!! If we had been informed about the lack of water in the Delta, we would not have come and spent such a huge amount of money! It was supposed to be an experience of a lifetime, but it was a huge disappointment :(
Seamless Safari Adventure with Mzansi Experience: Big Five, Great Guides, and Perfect Planning!
The booking process was quick and easy; I got answers to all my questions in under 12 hours. Everything ran like clockwork—the airport shuttle, safari pickups, and activities were all right on time. The guides were friendly and really knew their stuff, and we were lucky enough to spot all the Big Five! The lodge room was spacious and had everything we needed. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious with lots of options. I’d definitely recommend Mzansi Experience!
Awesome experiemce
Well organised. Lovely accomdation with friendly staff that went the extra mile to make our stay memorable. The guide was excellent. His knowledge was superb. The expereince was well worth the money we paid and we can hihgly recommend it.
Budget Accommodation
Booked for a 3 night stay. The Lodge was comfortable but the room I was assigned was very jaded and dark with strange lighting and fixtures. The food was decent though the menu could have been altered more frequently. Staff efficient and pleasant. Its the old room that was an annoyance and seriously needs an upgrade. The photos on the tour operator's site does not give a true picture. Otherwise the tours were decent though the tour to the sights within the park was underwhelming and this can be substituted for something else.
Delivered on the experience and made it memorable!
The Mzansi Experience was just that...an experience to enjoy. It included a 4-Day Okavango Delta & Boteti River Tented Safari package. On Day 1, arrival, we were to embark on a 2-hour sunset Mokoro canoe safari, but dry weather conditions have the Boteti river dry. Instead, they arranged for us to visit a nearby local village and become familiar with local villagers and customs, etc. However, upon arriving at the village, gates were closed and most had gone into a nearby town. Our driver/guide (Kay) was most resourceful as he located an elder lady who was happy to talk to us. Chairs were set out in a circle on village grounds, as she began to talk, other male elders joined, as did some children who sat on the sandy ground. Great afternoon. Day 2 involved a ride on a Makoro canoe up the Okavango river, which allowed us to glide through the river, seeing hippos, elephants and more. Day 3 was a Game Drive on a 4x4 open air vehicle to Moremi/Khwai Reserve, which is in the northern fringe of Okavango Delta. Saw a multitude of animals, including lions, leopard, elephants, zebras, etc. Day 4 was relaxation and headed out. Boteti Tented chalets were comfortable, food in small restaurant was always served to us at 7pm, firepit was nearby. Staff at Boteti Tented Chalets were all very polite and accommodating. We met 2 other couples from Australia that joined us on this 3-4 Day adventure, which made the experience even more memorable.
