Animals in Botswana's protected areas are generally relaxed around safari vehicles

The Gomoti River forms part of Moremi Game Reserve's southern boundary.

The Okavango's waterways are often crystal clear; great for a tranquil mokoro trip.

The Makgadikgadi Salt Pans are the bed of an ancient lake

A helicopter flight is an exciting way to gain a new perspective on the Delta

All of our fishing in the Okavango is done catch-and-release

Floating papyrus reed beds create a new experience for every boat trip

A leopard will exploit every possible advantage when hunting

Some camps use guides and trackers to help maximise wildlife sightings.

"A fantastic experience - all we hoped for!"

I visited Botswana between 18 Aug 2010 and 27 Aug 2010
"Our 'holiday of a lifetime' was just that! Our experiences in the Delta were unforgettable - great accommodation and fantastic guiding.

The tranquility and beauty of being out on the water in a mokoro; a close encounter with a hippo; driving through 1m of floodwater to reach the camp; tracking lions; spotting a leopard on a night drive; and the total darkness with no electric lights visible other than those at our camp...........Our memories will stay with us for ever. And then the number of animals at Muchenje! Elephant, giraffe, zebra, buffalo, hippos, antelope ....... it was amazing!

With hinsight, it was definitely a good choice to experience the Delta first and visit Chobe National Park second. Our boys loved the thrill of tracking and searching in the Delta, but then welcomed the opportunity to be so close to such a huge numbers of animals at our final camp.

Thanks, Expert Africa, for organising such a memorable trip!

"One of our best ever holiday experiences"

I visited Namibia and 2 other countries between 2 Aug 2010 and 18 Aug 2010
"We have travelled with many holiday companies over the years and usually travel at least 3 times a year and we can honestly say that in all our experiences this ranks with the best of them, from our experience with Expert Afica who were always willing to help with any queries, and all of our destinatiions (except maybe a couple) it was a breathtaking experience for myself my wife and our 2 grandchildren, every single day was mind blowing.

Thank you so much Sabina for all your help in helping us arrange a lovely holiday.

"Loved it"

I visited Namibia and 2 other countries between 27 Jul 2010 and 13 Aug 2010
"It was fabulous to return to Okonjima and Etosha - in new camps - and the Caprivi Strip and Botswana were excellent and everything we had hoped for in terms of a different safari experience.

The driving is enjoyable, the people all very friendly and generally helpful and all the lodges did not disappoint. Can't wait to return to Botswana and who knows where else in a couple of years time." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"A special and amazing experience"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 23 Jul 2010 and 6 Aug 2010
"We were blown away by the skill nd knowledge of the safari guides and their willingness to teach and passion for the world in which they live. We had a wonderful adventure with lots of very special memories to remeber Africa by.

Two of the Camps we stayed in were exceptional given the constraints within Zambia and Botswana. Our only concerns are captured in the previous comments in this questionnaire." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari
