Great authentic adventure in Botswana wilderness!
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!

Exzellent Game Drive
The Game Drive was one of the best and most expressive we ever had. Matengu was great in finding animals, we saw hundreds of elefants , antelopes, zebras , some crocodiles and we even saw a leopard at the end of the tour. It was absolutely worth its money! Moonlight Safaris is a highly reliable company and we very much recommend it for the Chobe NP Safari.
Well experianced Diver to Vicfalls
The driver knows all about the administrative things to Cross the boarder to Zimbabwe. Save driver who picked us at the agreed time after the visit.

He looked after all our needs, and made sure we were able to see as many animals as possible.
I came with my teenage son.
We had a wonderful time. The accomodation and warm shower in the bush was very pleasant.
We had an extremely informed guide with a team that took care of everything to ensure we were able to make the most of our camping trip.

Possibly the best guide in Botswana!
We have been taking guided safaris in Botswana for around 30 years now and Moonlight Safaris' full day trip into Chobe was one the best we ever experienced. Bogosi has an unparalleled knowledge of wildlife and the environment. His positioning of the vehicle was expertly done to allow for up close and safe encounters with animals. the picnic lunch was excellent. If you are looking for a true safari experience that is second to none, then look no further than Moonlight Safaris. Highly recommended

Great time in the bush with lots of big cats
We had a great trip with Moonlight. I was a little worried about camping out the bush with all the wildlife, but the extensive experience of the team made me feel better when we were out there. As someone used to backpacking, the camping was really more like glamping- we had a shower, good food, and cots. The only thing I wish they had was a dedicated handwash. There was also a truck-mounted fridge with cold drinks at all times.
The wildlife was spectacular- we spent hours with lions, saw many elephants, giraffe, and all kinds of antelope. We even saw a leopard. Chobe riverfront and Savuti were both very unique in a different way.

Great full day Chobe experience with Moonlight
I ended up booking a full day safari (private) and a Chobe river cruise (group) with Moonlight a month or so before my trip to Botswana. Prices were quoted in USD, but the expectation was that payment would be made in BWP cash. We were able to stop by an atm on our way into town, but BG offered to drive us to one if needed. Note: there was a relatively low ATM withdrawal limit, so it took three transactions at two ATMs to pull out the full amount. A few days before we arrived in Kasane, BG reached out by email to connect through Whatsapp to discuss final logistics.
On the evening of the river cruise, BG met us at our hotel's reception to collect payment and to drive us to the river dock. He showed up on time and the transfer was flawless. The cruise was a great time - lots of up close animal sightings and the captain did a great job of setting the boat up for good photography angles. At the end of the cruise, BG met us back at the top of the dock and took us back to our hotel.
The next morning we met BG at our hotel for an open air safari day drive. We had stocked up on water the evening before, but BG had also filled a cooler of bottles for us too. We spent most of the day driving up the river on the lookout for animals. While during the heat of the day it was difficult at times to find animals - BG did a great job knowing where to look. At one point, we ended up finding a pride of 13 lions who (after they were finished fighting with some elephants - went to sleep under a tree a few meters away from us. I've been to a bunch of safari parks in southern Africa - but this was one of the best experiences I've had.
Would also like to mention that Moonlight provided a huge luchbox that was probably enough food for a full day. Next time we're in the area, will definitely consider BG & Moonlight again.
Friendly, knowledgeable and skillful tours
I went with a family group on 3 game drives and 2 river cruises, all through Moonlight Safaris. We were a diverse group, with some of us veteran safari-goers and others going for the first time. The guides were very friendly and fun, knowledgeable about all the animals, great at spotting them, and very skillful in getting us up close. Had a great time, and would recommend them to anyone.

This tour operator will go the extra mile for his clients.
We did a 3 day safari with 2 night camping with moonlight safari. This experience couldn't be better. It were some of the best days of our life. Everything was wel organise with an eye for detail. The service was excellent and they really find it important. The campingsite was equipped with the best camping materials. The food was really delicious, always a lot to choose from, fresh products and most of it was healthy too. The communication before our trip was quick and effective. And above this our guide was the most enthusiastic, warm and positive person. During the game drives he really wanted us to see all the animals and he went the extra mile for us. So overall you will not regret booking with them. It is worth every penny!
