We loved this trip from start to finish. It was challenging at times, and we found there to be very little down time, but we would do it again in a heartbeat!
Communication in the planning phase with both Responsible Travel and the host company was excellent and we felt in good hands throughout the trip, both on the ground, with our guide and driver who were competent, careful and very informative, and back at base where we felt we would have good back up in the event of any incident. There ...read more

Karin Weston17 Oct 2025
Almost impossible to say. We saw big cats every day of the trip as well as so many other wonderful animals. It was a great holiday. Saw all the animals I hope to see and although not a birder many superb birds. The three areas of the Okavango that we stayed in were all different but equally thrilling. As a bit cat lover, to have seen leopard, cheetah and lions all in 9 days was more than I expected. Our guide was more than a guide, ensuring we had all the opportunity we needed to take photos, ...read more

This is a trip of a lifetime made all the more real by camping. There are memories I will carry with me for the rest of life. It will stand out as one of the most amazing times I've experienced. The whole trip was incredible but the Namibian landscape, particularly Spitzkopf was one of the highlights.read more

Amazing - we saw so much wildlife and our guide and driver, Blessed and Albie, were fantastic, as was Rati who took us through Moremi game reserve and could not have done more to find elusive animals...read more

The most memorable part of my trip was the incredible wildlife viewing. Not only did we see the Big Five, but we also saw so much more. Staying in the heart of the Okavango Delta, surrounded by wild animals, was a truly surreal and unforgettable experience.read more

David Mercer25 Jul 2025
A really enjoyable adventure. I travelled with my adult son and daughter and there was a good mixture of ages (18 to 74), nationalities and personalities that would never have come together otherwise. The scenery and wildlife were amazing but the holiday was also made by our guides and the people we travelled with.read more

I couldn't recommend this trip more. It exceeded my expectations in every way. Go with the attitude of going with the flow, being kind, mucking in and looking out for your crew and your group. We all got on so well and that's what made this trip so superb.

Eleanor Smith22 Jun 2025
Fabulous - although more of an adventure than a relaxed holiday. The knowledge of the guide on plants, birds, animals and the countries and people. The guide helped us feel safe, even when lions were close to our camp and we learnt so much on this trip.read more
Hannah Aguado Tween22 Jun 2025

It was an incredible experience and I feel very lucky to have had this opportunity. Such amazing wildlife. It would be hard to pick the most memorable, perhaps being so close to a lioness with her three cubs.read more

It was expensive but so worth it. Put the experience ahead of the economic jolt.
Life’s too short! Absolutely fantastic.read more
Jenny Wells22 May 2025
Definitely 5 stars. A truly wonderful experience. It's difficult to pick out one part...the whole trip was wonderful. The landscapes were stunning and the variety and abundance of animals and birds was amazing. We enjoyed journeying between different campsites and camp life was great fun with a lovely group of like-minded people. Our guides were generous with their knowledge of the environment and were super-skilled in all areas of safari life from making camp, to cooking, driving and spotting ...read more

Mary Ellen Parlar17 Mar 2025
We felt like part of a big family at each of the resorts. We were there during a quieter time of year so there were only a few other groups at each lodge. It was an amazing way to see Africa. Seeing lion cubs and hyena pups and so many elephants, zebras and giraffes and being woken up by hippos are all things they’ll never forgetread more
Joanie Yoffe7 Mar 2025
Fantastic trip through amazing landscapes! Hard to pin down but desert camp in Namibia Okavango Delta probably. Guides were brilliant - the driving on difficult roads - knowledge and enthusiasm and ability to deal with wide variety of people and situations.read more

Ian Howell10 Aug 2025
Very good opportunity to get a flavour of Namibia and Botswana, packs in a lot of
destinations en route so time spent at each location is limited. Itinerary does not include the unique flora and fauna of the Namib desert which is a ‘must see’ for any keen naturalist.read more
Lorraine Buckley5 Aug 2025
On the whole, excellent. Quite full on, with early starts and long travel days, almost no down time (one afternoon in 15 days) or chance to gain additional knowledge of the areas visited. But this was a necessary compromise to see so much in a limited time.read more
