Botswana: reviews from our travellers

"We had a fantastic time. the whole trip was wonderful and we are now hooked" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 5 on a Botswana safari

"Our trip was superbly organised and the assistance that we received with our planning was first class. The trip ran very smoothly and was stress free. We were very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the gravel roads in Namibia and found the whole of our Namibian experience very fulfilling. It was very varied and our choice of time of year meant that we saw far more than we could possibly have hoped for in Etosha.

After that Botswana was a slight anti-climax and appeared very over-priced by comparison with what we had experienced in Namibia. With the benefit of hindsight we also felt that 9 days of game drives was too repetitive.

Our poor experience at Kwara we feel was entirely due to the poor manager and housekeeper and could not have been foreseen by Expert Africa." Read full review: 25 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

""When you do things right no one will notice".

The smoothest trip I have ever done from start to finish, all the staff in the UK and Botswana could not have done any more. To be recommended

"One of our best trips in terms of the complete package. A wide variety of locations giving us a range of different environments and animal sightings with a good mixture of land and water.

If I were arranging it again I would not have put Tafika, Nsefu and Tena Tena all together - just two of the three would have sufficed - probably Tafika plus Tena Tena to give a slight variation of environment." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari

"The booking of Camps Bay was a poor recomendation for a 3 night of stay . After my several sugestions of Waterfront in Cape town we accpted the idea that it was very expensive and not much diference in acess. Wrongly and fortunately Camps Bay Retreat Management saved our stay by moving us to Waterfront Village,with superb location and rooms. This location is near shops restaurants and we allways felt safe. Please thank on my behalf Camps Bay Retreate Management" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 3 on a Botswana safari
