A Tour With My Love !
Sekanka Safari Camps were the highlight of our trip to Botswana. Thalo and his team were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. The camps were charming and traditional. My husband and I stayed in the Mokoro camp in the Chobe and the tents were spacious, very clean, and comfortable. The food was delicious and plentiful. One evening, we had a home-cooked meal and I had the best steak of my life. The location of the camps were great. We had the opportunity to see a variety of wildlife, including all the big five. We will definitely go back and highly recommend Sekanka Safari Camps.

What a fantastic trip ! Great time !
We had a fantastic trip to the Okavango Delta. We were picked up from the airport in Maun, Botswana and then taken to our campsite for the next 6 days. We were also picked up from our campsite and taken to Victoria Falls. Both pickups and drop offs were on time. We had a great guide who was very knowledgeable and helpful. The campsite was basic but clean and had a great view. We saw many elephant there. We had a great time!

An excellent tour with this company.
Great experience. The people were excellent, friendly and helpful. The service was excellent. The vehicle was very good. The itinerary was good and we saw a lot of animals. The accommodation was very good. The food was good but could have been better. The whole experience was excellent. If we need a safari again, we will use Seknka.

A good travel and tour experience with Sekanka.
I went on a 5 days safari with Sekanka Safaris, which was fantastic. I am fairly experienced traveller and have been on safari before. I can say that Sekanka is a very professional outfit. The guides and chef were excellent. The vehicle were road and dust beaters, but they worked well and were in good repair. The food was so tasty. One of the highlights of the trip was a "bush breakfast" under a baobab tree with impala and giraffe awesome! I highly recommend this safari company.

Let's organize 2022 safari trip!
One of the best travel experiences we've had! The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable, they helped us make the most out of our safari. The food and lodgings were excellent. The location was ideal for gaming viewing. The guides were great. The price was reasonable, particularly compared to other comparable options. The vehicle was very confortable.

Perfect tailor-made tented safari
We booked a tailor-made safari starting in Maun and ending in Victoria Falls with Sekanka and were happy we did. The itinerary was suited to our wishes. We traveled with just our family of 4 and loved spending time with the Sekanka team. Your guide Macha is always friendly and positive, Thalo the driver is super skilled. Even when driving through the most difficult terrains such as loose sand he managed to spot wild-life and made us feel safe with him. Neem is funny and a skilled chef. A great team to spend your safari with. Looking back, the only thing we would change is to stay in the same camp site for more than one night. The days we spend just one night in a camp sight were a bit too rushed with setting up and breaking down camp, since your team will do that. There is not a second team traveling ahead to take care of that like many of the larger companies do but the more family style and tailor-made tour that you get in return is very much worth that. Our favorite days were by far those in Xakanaxa area, such a stunning area were where were lucky enough to spot some rare game sights such as a leopard an wild dogs devouring their pray. We also enjoyed the Kasane Chobe boat tour a lot but in all honesty, the few days at the end at a comfortable lodge in Victoria Falls were a welcome change of scenery as well. Tents will be tents and despite the best efforts to make the tent as comfortable as possible, it will always be camping in a dusty environment. We had an amazing safari and anyone looking for a reference is welcome to contact me.

A unique and unforgettable experience
Okavango was on our bucket list and on short notice, Sekanka Safaris was able to organize and tailor an incredible camping safari from Maun to Xakanaxa and Khwai. Although we are seasoned safari-goers, this was our first minimalistic camping experience in the wilderness, as previously we slept in safari lodges or hotels.
Our guides Thalo and Ben delivered their services in an extraordinary, pleasant, and friendly manner. They made us feel at home, taking care of all aspects that would make our safari unforgettable. Everything was well organized from the onset, safe, with excellent guidance, explanations, and storytelling of the endless wildlife, flora, people, and local culture.

Great choice for seeing amazing animals and breathtaking landscapes
My wife and I enjoyed a 5 day Chobe safari with Thaloganyo Phetolo (Thalo) and Sekanka Safari. The timing was early June, during the beginning of the dry season, where the nights were very cool and the animals were plentiful. The safari focus was on the Chobe; the landscape, birds and animals. The focus was not on pampering guests. A couple of examples come to mind. While we were out looking for lions, we passed another group that had stopped for afternoon cocktail hour. We enjoyed the wildlife and they enjoyed their drink. Another example is we had cold breakfasts (actually the same breakfast we normally eat at home) so that we could get out early to see the wildlife as the sun rose. Sekanka offered the type of travel we prefer; out enjoying nature. As we looked into a safari with Sekanka, all our questions were quickly answered and, thanks to their flexibility, we were on a safari that matched our schedule and the regions of the Chobe we wanted to see. During the trip, Thalo and his team were very accommodating, working with us as we fine tuned the day’s activities each morning. The equipment was clean and in good condition. My only complaint was I wasn’t smart enough to select an 8 day stay in the Chobe. I recommend Sekanka as a great choice for those who enjoy being close to nature, sleeping in tents, and experience Chobe up close and personal.
