Botswana & Zimbabwe Lodge Safari This was a fantastic trip, helped by a great group of people. Both the guide and driver were very knowledable and we all learnt a lot. The long drives were helped by Rowan our guide reading out who wants to be a millionaire from his phone and after several attempts we beat the odds!
Some of the group were nervous about camping in the Okovango delta but it was glamping rather than camping and this proved to be one of the most enjoyable 2 days the trip. Mornings were chilly but we all layered up and with the help of blankets on the game vehicals managed to keep warm. The trip notes were inaccurate in the meals we had provided by the guide which worked out in our favour. Most of us felt that all evening meals with the exception of Victoria falls should be included.
Rowan provided good meals and there was plenty to eat.
We missed out on seeing lions and leopards but did see the most difficult cat to spot the cheeteh so that more than made up for it and as it is wildlife there are never any guarntees. When I booked this trip it was the animals I was most interested in but this has lit in me an interest in birds that I never knew I had and I hope to continue spotting and photographing bird in future.
Victoria falls were amazing and I would recommend both the sunset dinner cruise and the helicopter flight over the falls both were superb.
Cape Town to Victoria Falls -wow!!! The whole trip was full of adventure. With the ever changing scenery there was so much to see and do. Every day was exciting. The food cooked for us was excellent, how he achieved the great meals on a camp fire I will never know, just brilliant. Would recommend to anyone.
Excellent Overland Trip with great guides Excellent overland trip, jam packed with Southern African highlights.
Trip was led by Gift and Ende who both worked tirelessly to make sure we all got the best from the trip.
