“This is such an incredible Botswana adventure that allowed us to not only see and experience local culture, but also allowed us to see some of the lessor traveled National Parks that Botswana has. We had some amazing animal sightings that words may not begin to put into perspective. But one of the nice things that you don't always know about this tour, it is the perfect combination of camping and accommodation, which gave us some more time in the National Parks to do more extensive game drives and let me rest my head on a comfortable bed on certain days throughout the tour... AWESOME!!!!!”

“Tammy has been amazing so far with helping plan our trip. So responsive and answers all my questions. I can't wait to continue working with her the closer we get to our trip. I feel confident she wants and will help ensure our experience will be incredible.”

“Hey Huntley, You are really awesome. I never experienced such great support and advises by planning my tours. Of course I am happy to benefit from the tips of a local :-) thanks a lot! And the Hiking tour sounds very interesting to me. If you are in town and you got the time I would be happy to take such a tour with you at Sunday, April 8th :-) In case you plan someday to visit Germany I will guide you :-) Have a great day Ute”

“We really had a great tour and I think I was pretty lucky with the group! I still don't have enough of the nature and animals. Could go back straight away !”

“The overland trip has been wonderful, beautiful places, animals, beaches. Only one thing: me and the other tourists have suggested to the tourist guide Cardi to modify the itinerary because the last 3 days of the tour are spent only for long transfer from Vilanculos to Johannesburg without seeing new places. Therefore we would enjoy the beaches of Mozambique only for 3 days. Maybe it's better to organize the way back by plane from Vilanculos to Joburg. Anyway I'm satisfied and I hope to contact you for another trip in Africa. Many thanks and bye from Italy.”

“My booking agent was extremely informative, patiently answering my million questions. Although our conversation was done only through emails, the feeling was as if it was a phone conversation since I received all needed information in timely manner. I have only the words of praise for my agent :)”

“Nicky was an absolute super star and I was her worst nightmare, indecisive and sent multiple emails!! Nicky went over and above to accommodate all my enquires even extending my booking due date to accommodate my needs and not the company's. I can't thank her enough, she has my bite fur”

“I have never dealt with a company (and person-Tamlyn) who has been so helpful and patient! All of my (thousands) of questions have been answered in so much detail! It is always hard booking a tour over the internet but I have been provided with the best advice and information and have never felt more comfortable booking this tour!!!! My spot was also held for me while I made up my mind and had public holidays in between so communication was scattered! Thank you so so so much! Can't wait to actually go on the tour now! Woooo!”
