"The best ever trip"
The hotels/lodges/transport etc all worked like clockwork. The combination of accomodations suited us well - teenager friendly, good quality, good food etc. People incredibly helpful and friendly.
Would change little in retrospect - probably only a direct flight from Cape Town to Maun." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"Trip of a lifetime"
We expected with all the transfers that at some point something might go wrong/ bags be lost etc, but everything went exactly according to plan.
Thank you so much for organising this holiday. We were very sad to have to leave Zambia.
