True astonishing wildlife experience, everything we could dream of, and more.
5/5

A truly unique experience. We booked 3 nights in the Moremi Game Reserve. The journey began the evening before the scheduled departure with a meeting with our guide, David. We discussed the itinerary for the next day, and he explained the organization of the trip, providing useful advice for life in the bush. We immediately became friends with him.
The next morning at the agreed-upon time (7 am), he picked us up at the lodge in Maun with the fantastic Toyota Land Cruiser, which never let us down, and the safari began:
Day 1: A mokoro ride on the Boteti River and a transfer inside the Moremi Game Reserve (with camping at South Gate) with an afternoon game drive.
Days 2 and 3: Full-day game drives with breathtaking sightings and photographs at the level of National Geographic, if not better.
Day 4: The last morning game drive to bid farewell to the wonderful reserve and return to Maun.
The team consisted of:
* David, the guide, probably the best guide in Botswana, well-versed in all the park's fauna and flora, tireless in driving and providing explanations and stories, a deep connoisseur of the Moremi Game Reserve and all its trails. He speaks impeccable English, always making himself understood, and was super helpful and very friendly.
* Gladis, the young cook, a true talent in the kitchen. Whether it was dinners in the field or packed lunches, she always delighted us with typical Botswana dishes. After 12 hours in the savannah, it's important to eat well and plenty.
* Mt, assistant cook, and handyman, always with a smile on his face, kind, helpful, service-oriented, friendly, and always ready to make us laugh in the evenings after the game drives with his jokes.
* Moses, the assistant guide, David's right-hand man in the bush, always attentive to spotting any animal and also a great connoisseur of the savannah habitat.
And it's mal d’Afrique right away. We can't wait to go back, not only for the fantastic animals we saw (see the photos) but also for the wonderful people who accompanied and guided us in this unique experience. Thank you very much, and see you soon!!!

Fantastic, intimate and personal experience of the wild.
5/5

We had a great experience. Love the way that our guide, Kavi, made each game drive and event so personal and fun. Kavi and his team made every effort for us to relax and truly enjoy our stay. Loved it thoroughly!!! Would recommend it for a personal interaction with the guide as well as the South African bush and it's animals, like no other Safari I have been on.

Just a brilliant experience all round, tents, food, surroundings, and staff all just right!
5/5

My partner and I had a great time staying at the camp as well as on the excursions. All of the staff we met were friendly, helpful and warm - and they knew there stuff. The food was incredible, I didn't know what to expect but it was better than I could have imagined! The accommodation was also fantastic, in great condition and very comfortable/ well thought out (especially enjoyed the lovely shower). I would highly recommend anyone travelling to Maun to try The Mzansi Experience and we look forward to coming back soon!

Excellent customer service
5/5

Communication with Mzansi was exceptional. We had a small trouble with the transportation as we missed the first initial transport to Kruger but Mzansi (esp. Zelda) helped us arrange a second transport and also with the check in.
Our tour included 3 nights with the secondary camp options as the first was fully booked. We enjoyed the safari and got to see alot of animals.

Remarkable experience
4/5

My husband, daughter and I enjoyed our 3-night Tented Safari very much. The Lodge facility was very clean and comfortable, although excruciatingly hot. The saving grace was the pool which is not large but provided the essential ability to cool down.

The mokoru was a little disappointing - we had all anticipated it bringing us closer to the wildlife but it turned out not to be so. However we saw hippos and some other game, and the full day driving safari at Moremi was incredible. We saw such a variety of beautiful wildlife and loved every moment.

The Guides were all very knowledgeable and friendly and made us feel safe. The Lodge staff were also friendly and helpful. I would have liked more information on tipping the staff/guides as we were not well equipped with cash and the staff depend on tips more than we realised.

The refreshments and water were plentiful and of a good standard.

We had a wonderful time and would recommend it.

Camp and Game Drives All in all good. Everything worked out fine from Pickup until Drop off.
5/5

We booked a 5 Days (4Nights) Safari. Overnight Stay has been in Kruger Adventure Lodge. Pickup at The Airport Johannesburg were excellent. Included were 3 Game Drives. One Afternoon and two full day (from 5:30 am till 3 pm) Game drives. We saw nearly every animal we seeked for, including the Big five. Also the Panorama Tour was great as a day beetween two game Drives. Just the Dinnermenu is a bit onesided for 4 Dinners in a Row but we found very delicious food.
All in all a very good experience and super days. Would do this again the same way ✌️
