Great company with the best guide
Bogosian,our guide (who is also the owner of Moonlight safaris) is really knowledgeable, not only regarding flora and fauna, but also culture, food and almost anything else you might want to know about Botswana. Communication with him was great from beggining of reservation process all the way to the end. He made us feel like we are old friends without crossing ant lines. He was always polite. For the 14 days we spent together, he managed to show us 9 leopards, 1 have just caught lunch(in only 6 days), honey badger, hyenas, lions( males, females and cubs), elephants, giraffes, the real rare wild dogs, a lot of birds and many, many more. He cave us information about their habits and diet. He made us feel safe during the game drives giving us clear instructions on what to do and what not to do. You can clearly see that he deeply cares for the animals and nature!
I would say that prices were really reasonable for the quality of service Moonlight Safaris provide. I have told all my friends that if they decide to go to Botswana- they should choose Bogosi and Moonlight Safaris! I recommend him and his company to everyone who wants to see true Botswana

Bogosi Kakambi , owner/operator of Moonlight Safaris, is the best guide I’ve ever had in the Chobi.
The great guide makes all the difference on safari. Bogosi Kakambi not only points out the obvious and abundant wild life, he knows the culture, religion, food and can give the “inside” scoop on travel throughout the Chobi and beyond. Bogosi is an expert on the flora, fauna and wildlife. Having Bogo as a guide greatly enhanced the safari experience! I highly recommend Bogo. I was born and raised in Zimbabwe and have been on many safaris - no one comes close to Bogo!!

Passionate about their job
We had a great safari in Botswana with Moonlight safaris. The guides were professional, knowledeable and passionate about their country and its amazing wildlife. They really made an effort to provide us with a memorable experience. The food they cooked for us was delicious, the vehicles were perfect for game viewing, the organisation was very good, with the exception of some minor household issues in the camps.
Overall, excellent company with great friendly people who love and enjoy what they are doing. That was my first safari and it was amazing. Definitely recommended.

Very fair and caring
I've been halfway around the world, but this was my most memorable experience for me. This is primarily due to the professionalism of Moonlight Safaris.

14 nights/ 15 days mobile camping/ lodge safari in Chobe NP, Savuti, Khwai, Moremi, Makgadikgadi Pan
I, along with a large group of 11 friends had a fabulous 14 nights/ 15 days safari in Botswana and Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) with Moonlight Safaris.
We had a lodge accommodation in Kasane and Maun and special camping in Savuti, Khwai Community Concession, Moremi Game Reserve and Kubu Island (Makgadikgadi Pans National Park. Needless to say that this was a serious task - the owner of the company provided two safari vehicles with two guides (he drove one of the vehicles himself) and a support vehicle with 5 people back-up team (a chef and 4 camp hands). They carried all the camping equipment - tents, stretchers, mattresses, linen, bush showers, tables, chairs etc.
All vehicles were in top condition - we drove in hard road conditions, deep sand, dust and never experienced any mechanical issues. Both guides - Bogosi and Judah performed very well in terms of seaking, tracking and finding animals and birds. They found 9 different leopards within 6 days timeframe in Savuti, Khwai and Moremi. Lions (females, males, cubs) almost every day. At nights we had visitors in the campsites - Honey badgers, Elephants and Spotted hyenas.
We had also a full day Okavango Delta motor boat safari and a scenic flight over the delta included in the program (both from Maun).
Kubu Iskand in Makgadikgadi Pans National Park was something completely different from the rest of the places that we visited in terms of scenery - an island with lots of baobabs in the endless salt pan.
The boat safaris and the game drive in Chobe NP from Kasane were very well done by Bogosi and Judah, a lot better than last year's drives and boat trips provided by the lodge. Bogosi also subcontracted a great company in Maun for the full day motor boat safari in the Okavango Delta.
This is my second safari with this company and the owner Bogosi. Last year I had a similar itinerary and I am also planning to do another trip with him next year.

I strongly recommend Moonlight Safaris. They deliver a great service.
Moonlight Safaris are treasure if you are going to Botswana. They are doing their jobs with love so they shown us everything that we asked for. We have a chance for 6 days to 9 times leopards.
I strongly recommend Bogosi from Moonlight Safaris. He is doing great job.

Professional team!
We got in touch by email and then via WhatsApp. They answered us very quickly.
They even came to get the money at our campsite, because we couldn't move our van.
We spent a full day in the national park with a very nice and professional guide. He allowed us to see the usual wildlife and even a group of lions, and even 2 leopards! Sure, we have been a lot lucky... But the guide knew a lot of things about the animals and proficient to guess where we could try to meet them.
We had an unforgettable experience!

Incredible safari filled with animals and great service!
Incredible experience that exceeded my expectations! From the beginning organization and planning was excellent. We had some special requests for the meals, since my wife doesn't eat meat, and they were able to accommodate us nicely. The guys were friendly and hard working. The guide was knowledgeable and a good driver (we saw plenty of self-drive people stuck in the sand). As far as camping goes, it was quite posh. They set up everything for you, cook you excellent meals, and even give you warm water to wash up in the morning, and an opportunity to shower (camp shower). Much nicer than I expected. We saw solo many animals! Here's a list: Hippo Lion Leopard Elephant Hyenas Giraffe Gnu Impala Kudu Mongoose Black back jackal Wild dogs Water buck Water monitor lizard Steenbock Zebra Crocodile Sable Birds Red billed horn bill Lilac breasted sholla Copper tailed cuca Guinea fowl Crowned clover African fish eagle Stork Grey Lorry (go away bird) Marabú stork Ibis And those are just the ones we wrote down. Beware the days are very hot, but the nights get very cold, so bring warm clothes also. Blankets were provided, so we managed. One unavoidable thing was there was a lot of driving on rough roads, and we were pretty worn out from that. Overall amazing experience!

Mr Bg is the most knowledgeable guide you will find around
Best safari experience in savuti and chobe national park with moonlight safaris. Saw all of the cats and all the animals you could think of from elephants to lions to leopard and even found a pride of lions feeding on an elephant .Mr BG was extremely knowledgeable and went out of his way to accommodate us and all our needs. If you are ever in botswana or the chobe area don't miss the opportunity of using moon light safaris you won't be disappointed
