About this trip

This is a "pre-trip", immediately prior to our mobile safari expedition through northern Botswana to the great Victoria Falls. The Central Kalahari is where unique wildlife exists, very different than what we will see in the northern part of this vast country. The great black maned lions, the oryx with 6' long horns, meerkats, and an abundance of cheetah. And, for one day, our guides will be the San Bushmen, descendants of what are considered the first humans on the planet, they have  inhabited this area for over 20,000 years.

I had a wonderful time, the mix of culture and history was perfect. People in the group was kind and helpful. The trip had the right balance free time and activities. Group leaders and guides were knowledgeable. I did miss swimming either sea lions but I understand it was beyond control as weather has the right of way.

A great Introduction to the history, culture, geography and biodiversity of the area. Road trips to museums, a boat trip around the islands, an overnight stay (glamping) at a lovely beach, and a brief tour of the city of La Paz were all enjoyable and educational. Lots of good food, especially fresh fish and seafood , and a comfortable hotel with good service added to the pleasure. Good leadership and a congenial group of travelers made for interesting conversations. There was also unstructured time for being alone or with one or more companions.

Dear Ana, It was a great pleasure to have you with us! We so appreciated your resilience during the unexpected and abnormally gusty days, and are happy you enjoyed our getaway. Hope to see you again!

It was a most amazing adventure. Well planned and very representative of Botswana and Africa. Our guides were exceptional and the support staff were awesome! I highly recommend this tour to anyone wishing to experience the "real african safari experience".

It was a wonderful trip. I especially enjoyed the boat trip to Isla Espiritu Santo. The glamping night was different and very nice too. Deborah & Miguel were knowledgeable guides and made the trip very much fun.
