Overall rating
5/5

- Wildlife and scenery were absolutely great, we got to see much more than we thought we would.
- Accommodations we very good. We spend some nights in tent and some in rondawells. Accommodation had everything we needed to have a good night sleep and to shower and wash clothes etc.
- Our guide Mr. Chris was fantastic! He was very professional and knew all about the animals and nature. He also told us many stories about the traditions in Africa. Our cook and "fixman" Mr. Lungi was also fantastic! I don't know how he did it but he managed to do dozens of things at the same time and we didn´'t need to worry about anything. Thank you Mr Chris and Mr Lungi!!
- The highlights that we saw are many; elephants, buffalo's, lions, rhinos, hyenas and even one snake! And of course the African nature itself, the colors, sounds and the darkness of the evening!

Magical Trip of a Lifetime
Overall rating
5/5

This was our family's first trip to Africa, and we really weren't sure what to expect. We were so blown away by our experience in Botswana! The people! The wildlife! The beauty! It was almost overwhelming!

We entered Botswana at Maun (protip: bring your own pen with you to avoid waiting in a line 10 deep for the few pens provided at customs) then flew by a 6-seater plane to our first camp, Rra Dinare in the Okavango Delta. We adored Rra Dinare...the remoteness of it, the fact that there is no perimeter fence...just beautiful. The people at Rra Dinare, like everywhere we went in Botswana, were gracious, friendly, welcoming. The game drives here were almost an embarrassment of riches and we saw the elusive leopard on 3 out of 4 drives! Our driver, Parks, was outstanding.

From Rra Dinare we flew to Chobe and stayed at Bakwena Lodge, which was a different feel. Bakwena is perimeter fenced, which means you can walk around it at night without a guide escort, and you drive down the street about 20 minutes to get to the closest entrance to Chobe National Park. In terms of general "vibe", Rra Dinare's remoteness had more of an immersive "we are on safari feel" at all times, than Bakwena, which is more of a "we are staying at a very nice lodge and are leaving it twice a to go on safari drives", if that makes any sense. We found that the game viewing at Chobe in early April is not as bountiful as the Okavango Delta area, but that is just in relative terms - we still saw all the usual animals at Chobe - elephants, giraffe, zebras, leopard (twice! again!),LIONS (!!), etc....but you went for longer spells on the drives between sitings. The staff at Bakwena was exceptional, and our game driver, Max, was awesome.

The places we went to in Botswana had customer service nailed - gracious, helpful, friendly people at every turn. We had an amazing time.

Very impressed by the attention to details
5/5

My wife and I were concerned on how difficult if might be to plan our trip, from the United States, with an agency located in South Africa. Our agent, Kathi, quickly put any concerns we had to rest. The communications were easy and the response to our questions was quick. African Welcome Safaris went above and beyond what even our local travel agents would do to accommodate our wants and needs. My wife and I split out time between the Busanga Plains bush camp and camp Kapamba in the south Luangwa Valley. We both commented how the accommodation, and the food, far exceeded our expectations. Not to mention, the guides were extremely knowledgeable. If given the chance, I would return to Africa and would definitely book our trip with African Welcome Safaris.

Perfect Honeymoon Safari
5/5

We had a 4-day private safari trip to Mikumi National park incl. visit to Udzungwa waterfalls. The whole tour was arranged just as perfect as possible. Pick up at htl was in time, car was clean, comfortable & huge as for 2 of us :) Our guide Toni is worth of special attention. He is a great guy. Toni made his best for us to see 4 of Big Five (believe it's not so easy in Mikumi). If you travel to Mikumi, we highly recommend to stay at Angalia Tented Camp. Actually Kanuth Adventures booked it for us according to our special request (usually they offer Tan Swiss Lodge) , it was their 1st booking indeed, but now I think it's not the last :) This place if worth visiting- real nature at its best!!! Overall, it was awesome! Thanks to Kanuth Adventures for making our honeymoon safari unforgettable!!! Next time in Tanzania we will definitely book new trip at Kanuth Adventures.

Sceneries are so pretty, there are lots to see in Cape Town area. Kruger Park is awesome! Really good place to test your eye vision (how easy can you spot animals) and your knowledge of animals! Recommend to visit both places.
