Great authentic adventure in Botswana wilderness!
5/5

Bogosi is a great travel companion and guide. He's passionate and knowledgeable about his country and knows how to make you feel at home. I came to Botswana hoping to see my own Big 5 (wild dogs, hippos, hyenas, lions, leopards) and managed to see them all up close. The camping was very comfortable and Bogosi and his team put on a great spread to provide a top notch service even in the wilderness. I highly recommend it!

5/5

It was a great day at Chobe National Park, we saw plenty of wild life and by the river was great. Spectacular sceneries all around. Bigi our guide was so easy to get on with, he was stopping us every where we needed to take a good shot. Lunch was great too, we were also given bottled water throughout the whole day. These are treasured moments to take back home, Malta

Two weeks adventure in Botswana
5/5

We spend two weeks in Botswana and Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) with Moonlight Safaris.
Everything was perfectly organized. Guides Bogosi and Judah took great care of us from arriving at the airport till our departure. They are very friendly, knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about the animals and the life in Botswana.
We visited the Victoria Falls and made several boat tours on the Chobe river. Went on a special camping in Savuti, Khwai and Moremi for a 6 nights with two vehicles and support team of 4 people. They set up great camping for us, cooked delicious meals and made our life in the bush a real pleasure. It ended with two days boat tour in the Okavango delta with a one night special camping in the delta and a panoramic flight above it.
Needles to say we saw a lot of animals during these two weeks - elephants, lions, giraffes, leopards and cheetahs, wild dogs and zebras to name a few.
It was a great adventure and we returned full of unforgettable memories. I would highly recommend Bogosi, Moonlight Safaris and his team for everyone looking to experience Botswana's wildlife!

Bogosi is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and goes above and beyond to make sure everyone enjoys.
5/5

This was the third trip with Moonlight Safaris and each one is better than the last. We saw enough wildlife to last several lifetimes. We saw prides of lions feeding on an elephant they had killed. We saw leopards mating, so rare to see them together like that. So many elephant, giraffe, zebra, and variety of antelope. Camping under the stars in the bush is life changing. The food they prepared was amazing and different every night. I could go on and on but you need to experience for yourself. Check out Botswana and let Moonlight Safaris be your guide. You will not regret it!

5/5

I have been to Botswana several times, I take groups of youth and adults on a tour. I struggle to find reliable, safari guides until I met Bogosi and moonlight tours. Now I simply tell him the dates, and he always gives me the best price possible, and without fail, shows us a good time. I just returned after doing a 2 Day Safari Drive. We saw Lions both days, these guys are the best!

Amazing wildlife and amazing experience
5/5

From the very beginning, Bogosi was exceptionally responsive and informative. We chose Moonlight Safaris for a tour where we could maximize wildlife sightings in only a few days. After comparing Moonlight Safaris to multiple alternatives, they were the best choice for packing in as much adventure as possible at an affordable price. In the end, we booked the "3 Day Chobe and Savuti Tour Explore" package and were very well supported the entire time. Bogosi and team provided a camp setup that was more comfortable and thoughtful than our bush camping experience elsewhere in Botswana the week before that cost quite a bit more money. He listened to our wishes for the trip and was clearly committed to making them a reality. He was flexible when needed, protective when warranted, and always focused on helping us make unforgettable memories. Our animal encounters were incredible - everything we wanted and more. He went out of his way to take care of us, as I am sure he and his team will do with anyone who chooses Moonlight Safaris. Thank you, Bogosi!

Very able , reliable and experienced
5/5

We were in Botswana with Moonlight Safari for 8 nights in the last part of April . We are a group of seven Italian friends which travels often together. We stayed two nights in Moremi, one night in Quai, two nights in Savuti and two nights in Chobe. Bogosi, the owner of Moonlight , was very flexible in organizing the tour with us, always responding to our mails and whatsapp calls.
The tour was fabulous. Bogosi is a great guide and very knowledgeable about the bush animals. His enthusiasm about wildlife was contagious. At night, when we arrived at the campsite , the tents and hot water for showers was waiting for us. The staff very kind. They made fresh bread for us.
The sounds of the bush at night is a unique experience.
We returned home with lots of wonderful memories.I strongly suggest to visit Botswana national parks this way

6 Nights/7 Days Mobile Camping Safari – it was a blast!
5/5

We spent 7 days and 6 nights on a customized mobile safari with BG and his team, starting in Kasane, Chobe Riverfront, Savuti, Khwai, Moremi, and ending in Maun. In a nutshell, it was a blast, and we are still overwhelmed by all the experiences we had.

Our special thanks go to BG, who is an excellent driver, professional tracker (especially for lion) traces, and an expert in flora, wildlife, and culture. We learned so much and often felt like we were taking part in a Discovery Channel documentary. We got incredibly close to many different animals (managed to see 4 of the Big Five) and enjoyed reviewing our memories every evening while watching Bush TV (bonfire).

The entire team made a real effort to provide us with everything we needed. They were friendly and hardworking. Moreover, they carried all the camping equipment such as tents, stretchers, mattresses, linen, bush showers, tables, chairs, etc. As far as camping goes, it was quite posh. They set everything up for you, provided warm water for morning wash-ups, and even offered the opportunity to shower (camp shower). The service was outstanding, and we mustn't forget about the chef. Billie could be an award-winning bush chef. He even invited us into his kitchen and taught us how to bake bread in the bush without an oven - incredible.

Just beware that the days (in May) are still hot, but the nights can get very cold, so it's advisable to bring warm clothes. Blankets were provided, so we managed. Additionally, it's a good idea to bring a torch and a camp light for inside the tent. Communication was easy via WhatsApp before the tour to discuss all the relevant tour stops and the itinerary. Unrestricted recommendation.
