Review about Hwange National Park by Boris Bals
Overall rating
5/5

It was my first experience and it was really good, but I have no reference what so ever, so it's hard to say, how good it really is. We saw 4 of the BIG 5 and a lot more, and that is the main reason you're there, right!? ;-)

About: Botswana
The most beautiful country I never thought I'd visit!
Overall rating
5/5

My mother and I had dreamed of going to the Seychelles for years and, after winning a charity auction for a trip to South Africa, we decided to go. When we were booking our trip, we decided that since we were taking such a long journey from the west coast of the U.S., we should make the most of our trip and also visit Botswana. As it turns out, I may have dreamed of going to the Seychelles, but I now dream about going back to Botswana--it is a beautiful, magical place.

Unlike other countries in Africa for safari trips, tourism in Botswana is somewhat more exclusive, albeit growing. Our camps were luxurious and small, with the staff outnumbering the guests--in some cases by 5:1. We used Wilderness Safaris for our two camps in Botswana and the accomodations were exquisite for being in the bush; the staff knowledgeable, friendly, and professional; and the food was top-notch. We visited both the Savuti Channel and Okavango Delta, both of which were amazing. The Delta was absolutely awe-inspiring, and after having 2 weeks of land-based safaris through South Africa and the Savuti Channel, it was thrilling to have a safari on the water (including one afternoon in a traditional Makoro). We saw a wide variety of game, even spent an entire hour just watching a Cheetah. There was rarely another vehicle in sight, unlike in Kenya or other popular places where if you spot rare game, you suddenly are surrounded by 10 more jeeps filled with spectators. The birds in Botswana were amazing--it's where I fell in love with the Malachite Kingfisher.

I travel quite a bit and rarely do I find a place that I yearn to visit time and time again. Botswana is one of the places. Magic, beautiful, dreamy. Visit if you have the chance.

Accommodation - reasonable.
The only one thing which should be changed is the booking system for organised trips.
I made a booking for safari trip with my 2 friends which was not organised because of small group. It was one of the main reasons why we wanted to visit this park.
