Fabulous holiday
Botswana between 6 Sep 2008 and 15 Sep 2008
"Exceeded expectations which was tough as they were high.
Expert Africa had listened to our requests to walk and for night drives, and the camps provided a flexible, responsive service having clearly been informed of our priorities which meant that the holiday vastly exceeded our high prior expectations.
Suggestions for improvement:
Advise potential customers to think through what they want and be specific."

Shinde Footsteps
"Fantastic, most remote, great for walking"
2 nights
Arrived
7 Sep 2008
"Great walking, superb knowlegeable guide in Titi, amazing food despite the remoteness, the mokoro trips can bring you VERY close to the hippos, but walking towards the roaring lions with Titi's expert guidance was the highlight."

Shinde Camp
"Larger camp but very welcoming"
1 night
Arrived
9 Sep 2008
"We did not really do this camp justice by only staying one night. Larger than footsteps and I would not want to stay in a larger camp, but it was nevertheless very welcoming.
It provided the outstanding highlight of our trip whilst out walking when we saw two lionesses kill (One Eye and her daughter) at 50 feet. This was trully exhillerating, but nothing like as scary as hippos stampeding throught the camp in the middle of the night."

Linyanti Bush Camp
"Fantastic setting, flexible"
4 nights
Arrived
10 Sep 2008
"The setting for Linyanti has to be seen to be believed.
The guides were great, very keen to respond to our specific requests. 3 nights would be ideal.
Meeting the Linyanti lion pride at night and following them back though the camp was a highlight. Watching 2 big male baboons chase a leopard whilst waiting at the airstrip made for the world's best airport lounge."
