A truly amazing adventure!

Botswana between 25 May 2013 and 3 Jun 2013

Trip rating: Excellent
""Very satisfactory" hardly does our trip to Botswana justice. It was truly an amazing adventure and the trip of a lifetime. Of course, the wildlife was amazing, but the safari camps were equally fantastic. We were so well looked after from start to finish. The food was superb in all 3 camps and the staff always polite, professional but also genuinely friendly.

Our activities, accommodation and plane transfers between camps were seamlessly organised.

Megan at Expert Africa was excellent at keeping us informed about all aspects of our safari before we went and always answered any queries promptly, efficiently and professionally. I will recommend Expert Africa wholeheartedly to anyone I meet who is thinking of going on a safari. Thank you so much for organising all aspects of our trip so brilliantly."

Nxai Pan Camp

Nxai Pan Camp

"The Perfect Start to Our Safari"

3 nights Arrived 26 May 2013
"Nxai Pan camp was the first camp that we stayed at on our safari. It was, for us, the perfect place to start.

The managers were very friendly and welcoming and created a very relaxed atmosphere - a real 'homely' feel in the camp. This was probably helped by the fact that, for the first 2 days of our 3 day stay, we were the only guests!

Our guide, Partner, and tracker, Shoes, were also very friendly, but very knowledgeable and we felt totally relaxed and safe on our game drives.

Highlights were learning about the San customs with Shoes, the trip to see the Baines baobab trees, the traditional meal eaten with our fingers around the fire and, of course, the leopard sighting!"

Little Kwara

Little Kwara (Not currently featured by Expert Africa)

"Amazing Wildlife at Little Kwara"

2 nights Arrived 29 May 2013
"Little Kwara was a lovely camp - fantastic tents in great locations and a stunning camp visually.

We had some amazing wildlife experiences - lions at a kill, cheetahs plus elephants, impala and baboons in the camp.

The boat trip was a highlight as was the mokoro trip and nature walk (our guide for that was TJ - he was excellent).

Again the camp was relaxed and welcoming, but always ultra-efficient and professional.

My only comment would be that I felt unprepared for the intensity of the lion encounter. It felt like we could have been better prepared for that (told how to sit, how quiet / loud to be, how close to expect the lions to come to us etc..). It did feel like we were rather thrust into the action suddenly and, for some people, this might have been an uncomfortable, or even frightening, experience. Our guide when we went to see the lions could also have offered us more info / insight into what we were seeing."

Lebala Camp

Lebala Camp

"Fascinating Tracking at Lebala"

2 nights Arrived 31 May 2013
"Lebala camp was lovely too - fantastic setting by the river. We liked our tent which was the furthest away from the main camp - it felt like we were really in the bush. The camp was quiet and relaxed, but busy in the evenings at dinner with a lot of guests - but this created a fun atmosphere and we laughed a lot with other guests and also the Kwando guides and staff.

The highlight was the walking safari (beautiful and a totally different 'angle' on experiencing the wildlife) and the two and a half days we spent tracking a pack of wild dogs. This was fascinating and we would have liked more information or involvement on how the trackers and guides were following the dog tracks and what they were thinking."
