My Sep 2022 trip
Botswana and 1 other country between 7 Sep 2022 and 23 Sep 2022
"We had an excellent overall experience that exceeded our expectations in every way.
It really paid off going to a number of different lodges to give us experiences in different environments where the animal life was varied.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
No. You're doing a good job."

Ra-Ikane River Cruise
"Ra-Ikane River Cruise review"
9 Sep 2022 • All-day excursion
These boats were smaller than some of the others and had more character. The service and refreshments were excellent too.
We saw many Hippos and a few crocs before a glorious sunset.

"Very similar to Shinde in the rustic nature of the camp and the communal dining, but the staff we probably not as adept at getting everybody to eat together as a group, as one larger group wanted to eat separately."

Savute Elephant Lodge
"Savute Elephant Lodge review"
3 nights
Arrived
15 Sep 2022
"The lodge was a step up from that of Shinde and Kanana and our room had a wonderful view over the pool where elephants bathed and played virtually all of the day.
Dining was on your own private table. Food and service were excellent.
The safaris were in a public area, as opposed to the privacy of the concessions in Shinde and Kanana and it seemed that we had to travel much further distances to see the animals."
