BG,caring,knowledgeable,respectable and a gentleman.
We were stationed in Kasane ,visited the Chobe River,Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and also viewed the falls from across the border in Zambia and camped overnight in the Savuti Depression all under the professional wing of BG and his team from Moonlight Safaris.BG encertained that all in his company,even those with impairments and even the elderly were comfortable and happy.His sterling character is commendable.

A well of knowledge and a very sincere gentleman
Took 3 trips. Victoria Falls, a cruise on the Tsiwa River and a cave safari in the Savoti area of the Tsiwa National Reserve where we spent time camping in tents at a high level of comfort. We were exposed to a large variety of wild animals on these trips. Patience, generosity and a very warm face and made sure that we were seen and didn't miss a thing. In this way we experienced an adventure that we will never forget. I highly recommend using his services.

An excellent guide,a caring person,reliable and very helpful.
I have never camped before and came on this trip with skepticism. But to my surprise, it turned out to be a tremendous experience.
As a senior,I was comfortably accomodated throughout the trip and given good care by BG.Without doubt ,I would recommend other adventurous seniors to use the Moonlight Safaris Tour services.
First class service
As a family of 4 we booked an overnight stay having enjoyed numerous day trips in the past so we knew a little of what to expect.
We were traveling on a budget so were expecting a typical ‘much promised, little delivered ‘ experience that seemed commonplace on the continent. But the whole trip was very professional and of the highest standard - I’m sure we stumbled on a great find.
Bogosi met us on time at the pick up destination with everything ready to go.
Instead of just a tour guide, Bogosi became a friend to us, tailoring the Safari to the animals we wanted to see the most, and enjoying his company around the camp fire learning many things about our environment and African living along the way. A very valuable insight was surprisingly gained here.
We stayed in comfortable and safe tents with a fantastic meal in the evening provided by his chef who was the only other member of the party.
We rose early in the morning as we had never seen hyenas and Bogosi had a hunch as to where they would be - and he was once again spot on with his judgment and knowledge- something that if your tour guide has, impacts greatly on what you can get to see. Our expectations being fulfilled, we headed back to camp where a beautiful meal was ready for us and camp was packed up for departure.
On the return trip home we were treated to our best lion pride experiences just to top of a wonderful tour.
Moonlight Safaris delivered a beautiful family holiday highlight that as a family we knew was going to be a one of a lifetime event and will be fondly remembered and treasured for the unique opportunity Botswana offers as to accessing the wildlife but also due to the great service provided.
Purchasing the booking directly through the owner I think was good, as it meant we got the best value for money and a company small enough to give a personal touch.
If things have remained the same with this business since our adventure in 2019, certainly use Bogosi and book Moonlight Safaris.

Outstanding Tour Guide and Host
We arranged an eight-day camping safari from Maun to Chobe, Botswana in January 2021 for our group of seven friends (Six are in our late 70s). Four are residents of Colorado and three from Canada. Bogosi Kakambi ("BG") and his staff gave us a terrific tour. My wife and I have traveled frequently to many southern African destinations since 1996. This was one of the best safari experiences we have had and certainly exceptional value for money. BG is an exceptional man and an exceptional guide. He and his team (Timoth and Gift) responded to our every request. The meals were excellent. The vehicle was perfect for our group, even on the roughest January, rainy season, roads. Game viewing was outstanding as well. We have never seen so many elephant. And on our last day in Chobe National Park, we were treated to a pack of Wild Dogs around our vehicle. A morning mokoro (traditional canoe) excursion in Khwai and the Chobe River boat excursion were memorable as well. At the end of our tour BG personally drove us to Victoria Falls for the final stop on our tour. We would not hesitate to recommend BG and Moonlight Safaris to anyone who is looking for a first class African Safari Adventure.
My wife and I returned to Chobe the following year (August 2021) and went on a memorable day-tour from Kasane to Savuti. BG was our personal guide on that trip and he gave us another excellent tour.

What an incredible experience. Truly one of the best times of my life.
What an amazing trip. It started with a boat tour of the Chobe River. We saw so much from the boat and it gave us a unique perspective. We then took a drive through the park to see a large variety of wildlife. Elephant, Giraffe, Zebra, Kudu, Impala, and on and on. The guide was so friendly and knowledgeable. He knew where to go and exactly what to look for. We then camped under the stars and enjoyed delicious food cooked over the camp fire. Never have I slept so soundly. Morning we woke to an amazing breakfast and out into the park for more wildlife. A few lions made it a perfect trip. I will be back and encourage anyone considering to check out Moonlight Safaris. You won't regret it.

Reliable and knowledgeable safari operator for all of Botswana parks and reserves.
In August/ September, 2021 I and 7 other friends of mine had the privilege to do with Moonlight Safaris 6 nights moible camping safari in Savuti, Khwai Concession and Moremi Game Reserve.
The owner of the company, B G, was guiding and in charge of the trip. Amazing experience in every aspect. We used public campsite in Savuti and Moremi, in Khwai - accommodated. B G is a very experienced wildlife guide with great knowledge of the animals, including birds and an excellent driver, as well (roads are mostly deep sand and quiote challenging to negotiate).
We had fabulous sightings in all the parks/ reserves. In Khwai Concession, BG found a large pack of wild dogs and we spend more than an hour alone with them before other vehicles started to join us. Huge prides of llions in Savuti, lots of mamals and birds everywhere. B G knows how to position the vehicle for optimal light for photography, finds great spots for sunrise and sunset shots.
I have done many safaris in Africa and do have a broad basis for comparison and I would recommend without hesitation B G and Moonlight Safaris for any type of wildlife trip in Botswana.
I and a number of friends are goint to do with them combination of the above itinerary plus Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, the Chobe River area of Chobe National Park and Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.
Thank you, B G and see you again soon!
