Review about Botswana by Kathryn
We were only there for a day, but Botswana is a lovely contrast to Zimbabwe. Border control was efficient, infrastructure was good, and local residents did not seem to have the air of hopelessness that was present among many in Zimbabwe thanks to its economic difficulties.

Great guide
We were kind of unlucky with the number of animals we saw, but it still ended up being great because of our cheerful and intelligent guide. Learned a lot.

It was awesome, rugby world cup, animals and great guides to top it off, just like family
The whole experience was awesome i loved it the communications from our guide Neil was great he made sure we were all involved and and all enjoying it even though the day we were in krugar was pretty cold.
At night we watched the rugby world cup games and had delicious meals.
The whole experience was better then i expected and Panzi bush camp was a beautiful setting to relax in at night very quiet with the occasional wild animal visiting.

Extraordinary Journeys provides 'extraordinary' service!
Extraordinary Journeys took care of all the details so that we could relax and enjoy our Tanzanian adventure. They kept our interests and budget in mind as they planned our trip, in the end giving us more value for the money than another well known tour company that we talked to.

Fantastic adventure
It was amazing! I loved every minute of it. I would go back in a heart beat! The accommodation was fantastic felt very outdoorsy but safe behind the walls from the roaming creatures outside. The Safari was great I got to see the big 5 except for the leopard. Will do it all again to see them all.

On countless safaris seen all the animals excluding
The leopard but that's also my excuse for going back to
Tick that off the list
From day one to my last my tour guide Neil's
enthusiasm never changed weather it wa talking about
And giving facts about plants or the smallest insect to the largest animal
Highly recommend and 100% coming back

It was a great tour, and a great guide.
Neil is a great guy and a great guide. He has a lot of really good stories to tell, and we always have a great laugh. He knows a lot og the history of South-Africa and the places we're going to, so it's really interesting.
The highligt of the trip was the Kruger Park. We got to see many different animals, and for my 2 trips I've been able to see the big five. Neil is really good of spotting the animals. He dosen't just know about the big animals, but he also knows a lot about the birds.
I can really recommend Jewel of Africa Safaris. We had a really good time.

Wonderful family reunion trip to Botswana !
Our party of 8 had a trip of a lifetime - Victoria Falls to a houseboat on the Chobe River and then Lagoon Camp and Shinde Camp in Botswana. The accommodations, service, and food were excellent at all locations. The staff at the camps were amazing - so friendly and helpful to our party and especially the two teenagers. We saw several groups of lions including young cubs and a fresh lion kill, not to mention elephants, zebras, hippos, crocs, giraffes, and many types of birds and antelopes - all very close.

4 Day Kruger Lodge/Treehouse Safari
When researching various tour operators that offer safaris, Safari With Us was by far the most professional and organised. I felt 100% confident booking my safari through them, thanks to Andre, who offered almost immediate responses to my numerous emails and could provide me with all information I required, answering my many questions. I was really looking forward to the safari and was not disappointed in the slightest! My transfer arrived at the specified time and although the journey is long, it is broken up by various short stops and the drivers took time to explain what we were driving past and could also answer questions about the local area. The accommodation (Tremisana and Marc’s Tree House) is very basic, but comfortable. They offer contrasting experiences, as one night is spent in a chalet and the other two nights are spent in a tree house, deep out in the thick of the bush. The staff were exceptionally attentive to our needs and went out of their way to ensure our stay was as pleasurable as possible. The game drives were simply unforgettable. The guides are very experienced with eyes sharper than a hawk, which guaranteed us lots of sightings. I saw four of the big five and numerous other beautiful animals and birds too. One of the game drives was very chilly (end of March) and therefore I would definitely advise to bring a warm jumper and long trousers! Equally, the bush walks were educational and very informative for those interested in botany. As a solo female traveller, I was concerned I might feel slightly isolated, however on my safari I was with a fantastic group of people, all varying in age and nationality. We all had a lot of fun together and some friendships have been formed. I cannot thank Safari With Us enough for fulfilling this lifelong dream of mine and creating many beautiful memories that I shall never forget.
