My Aug 2012 trip

Botswana between 22 Aug 2012 and 3 Sep 2012

Trip rating: Excellent
"Very satisfactory.

The number of animals and birds we saw was amazing. Guides and trackers very knowledgeable and considerate. My only complaint is that I now have 1,500 photos to sort out!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Megan was extremely helpful with organising our travel arrangements and the camps we stayed - it would have been difficult to choose the camps from your brochure without her help. Nxabega camp had an incorrect date for our departure but this was efficiently corrected"

2 nights Arrived 28 Aug 2012
"18hr mains power with battery power after 11pm. 24 hr hot water. Hair drier in room.
