The staff were very customer focused and worked hard to make sure the experience was memorable
For tourists on a tighter budget, this trip provides an good taste of the things the Okavango and Moremi provide. The lodging, food, service & wifi were top notch. Our guide, Kay, was attentive and amazing. Traveling during the summer to the Okavango makes game viewing a bit less interesting. April - September are better months to go. The lodge is a good distance from where we met up with the polers and to the entrance of Moremi so keep that in mind as you plan. We have stayed at higher-end lodges in the Okavango. They provide better proximity but, from a service standpoint, Boteti Camp is on par and far less expensive.

Ideal Safari with Joseph from Jocky Tours
I choose the cheapest tour and was afraid that something could go wrong, but it was an excellent experiance. Our driver Joseph was very professional, carefull and intelligent. He tried to satisfy all our requests and even more. He knew where to find animals, when and where we can see cheetah hunting impala, he always stopped his car in such positions that we could have the best views, he showed us wonderfull place to see sunset ... He made our tour amazing and exiting. Thank you, Joseph!

An unforgettable journey!
For our first trip to Tanzania, we chose Serengeti Wakanda, after reading the countless positive reviews and seeing the availability shown right from the start by our correspondent Beatrice.
Well, what can I say, this trip was incredible, made perfect and unforgettable by Edward, our wonderful guide. The latter speaks English very well, was always very helpful, cheerful, ready to laugh with us, to answer our countless questions with kindness and professionalism. He was able to make us live this experience in the best possible way, satisfying our every desire (He also took us to visit a Masai village, local markets and to a structure where they explained to us how typical Tanzanian stones are extracted and worked).
Not to be taken for granted, he is very good and expert at driving on particularly bumpy and muddy roads, he knows every map and timing by heart and during the safaris he always gave his all to let us see as many animals as possible up close… he even helped a driver stuck in the mud, because as he taught us what really matters is: Hakuna Matata!
Safaris in Tanzania are really worth it (it's not our first experience in Africa, but this one is worth gold!), as is traveling with Wakanda: beautiful facilities, spectacular food (they have omnivorous and also vegetarian and vegan options) prepared by the staff chefs (even for picnics), jeeps that are always clean and fully equipped with water, always fresh drinks, Wifi and sockets... what more could you ask for?
We carry Edward, Serengeti Wakanda and all of Tanzania in our hearts... so much so that we will return in August!
Ahsante sana Tanzania, Jambo Jambo!

Wonderful time in Namibia
Namibia is a unique place and I was blessed to experience some of the country’s highlights from safari to dunes. A remarkable place that’s safe and diverse and a great place to visit.

Beautiful and desolate landscape
We spent three weeks in Namibia, which Lilly from Great Explorations in Windhoek arranged for us. This was my husband's 60th birthday present and we drove over 9 000 kilometres during the road trip. Sossus Vlei and Sesriem were very hot and the advice from the guides was that we should not drive ourselves, as the sand is very dense. The guides were great and the dunes were spectacular. The lodges along the way were also fantastic. Our only point of concern was that the roads in Etosha are so poor that the driver needs to concentrate on the road full time and does not have the opportunity to view any game. This is something to which the wildlife authorities need to pay attention.

Review about Etosha National Park by Eileen Blignaut
The poor quality of the roads in Etosha certainly detracted from the enjoyment of the bush experience. The driver did not have the opportunity to view game, as he had to concentrate on careering on the very neglected roads in the park (even though we drive a 4x4). This needs to enjoy urgent attention from the parks authorities.

Review about Namib-Naukluft National Park by Eileen Blignaut
The Namib-Naukluft National Park was quite an experience. The dry veld and desolate environment gave an almost eerie feeling driving around in the park. The lodge was lovely and we enjoyed our stay.

11 day Midrange Kenya Bush and Beach Holiday
Tapestry agency helped us organize an unforgettable trip to Kenya for our New Year holidays. We would like to note the professional and individual approach, starting with planning the trip according to our wishes, providing all the necessary information and willingness to help. We were met at the Nairobi airport and our wonderful guide and driver Peter accompanied us throughout the trip. Attentive, responsible, organized, with a great sense of humor. He always amazed us with his encyclopedic knowledge of all the inhabitants of the Kenyan reserves. On this trip we managed to see for the first time in our lives so many different animals, birds, plants! We were delighted to meet elephants, giraffes, gazelles and antelopes, a cheetah and lions!
We quite liked the hotels we stayed in. With the exception of Aa lodge Amboseli. The coastal hotel Diani Reef beach Resort & spa was also very tired and did not meet our expectations, but apparently this is the best of all...
Overall, we all got unforgettable impressions and extraordinary pleasure from this trip and are grateful to the Tapestry agency for helping to organize it!
