Magnificent, Comfortable, Excellent Guides with brilliant knowledge and great food.
This trip to Botswana has been on my "bucket list" for a while. Finally, I got to do it. We were a group of 10 accompanied by a team of very professional people. Our guides were Eddie and Rainy......Wow! What a team. The tents were very comfortable, and the bathroom facilities were great. Manu and her team make it all happen behind the scenes. The food that they prepared was amazing. From a healthy breakfast, to a packed lunch out in the bush, to snacks before dinner and desert, they managed to do it all. I will most certainly go back to Botswana and Kalahari Skies.

Amazing safari experience. Very good value for money. Great guide
The service was excellent. Very responsive and helpful staff (Robert). John the guide was great.
The Lenchda tented camp wasn't amazing, but considering the cost it was OK. The accommodation during the rest of the trip was good. But most importantly- the safari itself was amazing. I would join them again.

Amazing experience with a new friend!
The company was recommended to me by another friend who had just booked a day tour in Nairobi so I had already high expectations. Matthew was an amazing tour guide, extremely helpful when suggesting what to do with the time we had (just one day), very patient throughout the tour and an amazing person! I was delighted to had spent my last day in beautiful Kenya with such an amazing local young entrepreneur that showed me the best places, taught me about the culture and people!

Absolute Adventure
We did a 7 day/6 night safari and it was incredible! We went to Nakuru, Navisha, Masai Mara and Amboseli and saw every animal that I can think of during that time. Our driver and guide, Jackson, was awesome and very knowledgeable about the animals, plants and tribes that we witnessed. It was obvious that he loves his job and he really enjoyed sharing his knowledge with us. Amboseli was, for me, the best part of the stay- quiet and beautiful with a camp with incredible staff just make sure to keep an eye out for scorpions (we saw four in our two nights there.) Food was plentiful (too much for me, if you're not a big eater, ask for a small plate), water is 1 liter a day so you will need to buy more which was not a problem anywhere we went. We had a rotating number of people (based on location and circumstance) so that also kept the trip exciting! On day one, it was just two of us, on days 2-4, there were eight of us, on days 5-7, three of us. In all, it was a mind blowing week made more so by Jackson's expertise!

Ngorongoro - lot of animals on small territory
We were in Ngorongoro crater just half of the day but it was great half of the day! We start early in the morning. Just we reach the bottom of crater we saw elephants, the two black rhinos, after we stop to count because there is really a lot of animals. But you should understand if you want to see some episodes from wild life (hunting, eating, etc.) you should come in the morning, early. Sometimes it happens in another time of the day but more rare.
In Ngorongoro you can find savanna, river, swamp, trees...

Review about Tanzania by Olga
Tanzania is very good place for safari, but some processes to enter/exit from park is so slow...

Great Experience
Nice company! All communications were fast and questions answered quickly. They offered us an amazing experience at Elephant Lodge Safari. I really recommend Thorn Bush Safaris services.
