Safari Trip
On this trip, I visited Botswana & Zambia between 21-Oct-2012 and 30-Oct-2012 and I travelled with 3 other people.
We could have done with a bit more advice on tipping at the camps. We were a little unprepared as to this cost but certainly did not begrudge anyone their tips!

Overall review
On this trip, I visited Tanzania & Zanzibar between 20-Oct-2007 and 2-Nov-2007 and I travelled with 3 other people.
The trip as a whole was fantastic. Saw some great game and had a great experience.
I would however miss out on the beach experience if I did the trip again.

We have always believed that acting responsibly is the only way to approach tourism and we're one of
the few companies to hold AITO's original coveted 5-star status for responsible tourism. It's a lead
that others are now following.
