My September 2012 trip
Botswana and 1 other country between 7 Sep 2012 and 17 Sep 2012
"We had the most wonderful trip - all the camps far exceeded our expectations - the staff were lovely, and couldn't be more helpful - the guides were knowledgeible, expecially at Kwara - and we enjoyed every minure of the trip, even being chased by an elephant which was a bit scary!!!
Thank you for being able to assess the sort of thing we wanted, making a trip which suited us and giving us a trip of a lifetime. All three of us had the best holiday we have ever had.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Just need to add that the booklet you sent us with tips for the trips was extremely helpful, but we took your advice about only taking low denominations in dollars literally, and then had to spend ages dolling out one dollars for our visas. Maybe a slightly wider mix of bills might have been helpful. However, that is the only suggestion - everything else were great, even though I couldn't believe that we might need gloves - next time I'll take them!!"

Kwara Camp
"Kwara camp"
4 nights
Arrived
12 Sep 2012
"Yet again a wonderful experience. We had a fantastic guide who was incredibly knowledgeable, and we learnt a lot about all the animals and their behaviour, and watching the guides track the animals was fascinating. We will never forget the lion/buffalo kill that happened on the way back from the night drive, and the enthusiasm of our guide, BK.
You made us aware that this was a relatively old camp, so this is not a complaint, but fans in the bedrooms would have made a huge difference as I found it too hot to go to in the afternoon. Otherwise it was a wonderful place."

Victoria Falls Hotel
"Victoria Falls Hotel"
2 nights
Arrived
16 Sep 2012
"It was a bit of a shock on the senses after the last 8 days in the bush, but it was what was needed.
It was comfortable, and excellent for relaxing. Also, it was a short walk to the Falls, which was perfect. We enjoyed our stay, but were pleased we went after our camp experience rather than before like some of the other guests we met in the Camps.
The only thing that wasn't perfect was our pick-up to take us to the airport was late, and we felt that the Wilderness team were not nearly as efficient or friendly as everyone else we met - perhaps that was because they were less involved with our trip."
