"Okuti review"
Our guide Owner was fantastic and was so knowledgeable about animals and Botswana. He was fantastic with our kids and he was their favorite guide! The animal sighting were great - we were able to see wild dogs two days in a row which was on our wish list.
The only downside was that vehicles have to stay on the roads in Moremi Game Reserve so some animals could only be seen in the distance.
I'd suggest bringing binoculars."

"Shinde Footsteps review"
It was an adventure getting to the camp driving through small rivers and marsh, but it was well worth it! The more rustic layout of the camp allows you to feel more immersed in the safari experience. There was a hippo outside out tent one night and an elephant the next! Our guide was always with us, so safety was not an issue. The tents were spacious and had all the comforts of home. We liked that this camp was smaller. We did several of the optional activities including fishing and helicoptering.
The animal experience was incredible. We saw herds/dazzles/towers of animals! We saw so many giraffes and elephants. We saw 4 different leopards!"

We stayed in the family suite and it was so great. It was spacious with ample room for our family of 4. We really liked how close it was to the dining space.
We felt so spoiled being greeted with morning smoothies & an expresso at our room each morning. The meals were fantastic and there were multiple options available at every meal.
The animals were so great! Our guide was so knowledgeable and we were able to see so many animals, including lions, zebras, rhinos, wildebeests and so many types of antelope."
