It was a more than excellent tour with Drifters and Ruan Mey as our guide.
We did at that time the South African tour with Drifters. Ruan Mey was our guide. He was excellent, friendly, competent. The tour and the guide were both in one word : AMAZING!!!

Ruan is an excellent guide driver and chef who will keep you safe and well informed on any adventure
At the time of our African Safari Ruan had not set up his own company and was working for Sunway Safaris. In the light of our experiences with him as our guide/driver/chef I would not hesitate in recommending him to others who are thinking of travelling with him at Shikwaru Adventures.
His whole approach was very professional. He is a very experienced guide, very approachable and never at any time put his travellers in any difficult situations. If I was thinking of another adventure in Africa then Shikwaru Adventures would be my first point of call.

Total comfort and enthralment as we explored the many mysteries of the African bush.
What a great experience our Botswana safari was. Our guides infatuation with the bush and love of the animals was contagious. Their knowledge and respect of the animals was evident in everything they did. Their attention to detail and the way they organized the safari was simply perfect. When we decided to do a safari in Africa we couldn't have imagined how amazing the experience could be? A trip we will never forget.
Highly recommended.

Thank you Federica : Trip perfect. What I experienced will remain engraved in my mind forever
I could write a novel about this wonderful experience with Shikwaru Adventures. First of all, for the senior that I am, going on safari, being close to the wild animals was a childhood dream.
Sleeping in the camp, seeing and hearing the animals living day et night in their environment, while being in perfect safety within a team always ready to share their knowledge and experiences was magical. This trip also allowed me to discover smiling and "natural" populations, to admire dazzling landscapes.
Thank you Shikwaru Adventures for introducing me to these wonders

The best decision to choose Shikwaru-Adventures. Everything was super organized. es zu wählen
What we saw and experienced was indescribable. The nights in the middle of the bush, without water and electricity, were a bit of a challenge, but we overcame it!
Our guide Rock was connected to the other guides by CB and so we heard, that a leopard had killed a huge phyton on the river bank and was now eatingit. A sighting that wasn't very common!
We saw so many different species of animals and different landscapes.
Thanks for everything!

Excellent organisation and tour
This was my third time with Shikwaru. The first two times were a short trip and a one day trip. This time Federica took our family through the parks in Botswana. The whole team was excellent, including helping with luggage that was delayed for a day in Johannesburg.
If doing Botswana, i would deffinitelly reccomend to arrive a day prior, missing luggage seems to be quite common because the layovers in south africa are often short.
We spent two weeks camping in the parks in the North and the Kalahari and it was simply brilliant. The food was amazing and the camp was always set up by the time we arrived.
My parents were also super impressed with everything!
