Safari Blog

Dear Brett,

We had a fabulous trip and the camps were absolutely wonderful. Our favourites were Camp Moremi and Savute Safari Lodge because we saw the best animals. The other two camps, Camp Okavango and Chobe Savanna Lodge were equally beautiful and the staff there delightful, but they were not really what we wanted for our animal viewing. Both camps seemed much more suitable for relaxing and drinking cocktails by the pool. We much preferred the safari vehicles and seeing big stuff and we just loved driving for hours and hours spotting all sorts of wildlife.

We hope that in the very near future, perhaps next year, we can do another safari. We were thinking of Tanzania.

We took many photos and will send you some soon.

Best wishes,
Julian, Maggie and Bonny.

Dear Brett

The Victoria Falls and the Chobe Park were just outstanding, a real highlight! We booked a helicopter flight which is the best way to visit the falls

The Royal Livingstone is a top adress for those who can afford it. Very nice and clean rooms and a great place to be. Food is good and service is friendly

Slightly below, but still very nice is the Chobe Game Lodge. Beautiful location, very nice view, nice rooms, etc. The park is a jewel and I will never forget all the elephants, crocodiles, etc. in this magnificant landscape

The only negative with both hotels/lodges is if you eat "a la carte" it takes extremely long!

Everything went well. Thanks for the good organisation

Hi Brett,

Hope all is well. Just a note to let you know we had a fantastic time, all went well everyone was there to transfer us to our various destinations. Thorntree River Lodge, was thoroughly enjoyable, the managers Lindsay and Nevin were extremely friendly and helpful and good fun. Saw 6 hippos the first night 30 metres from our hut grazing on the lawn. Great start to our trip.

Thoroughly enjoyed the elephant safari was one of the highlights! Safari into Chobe was interesting, the river was beautiful, saw stacks of animals. We were really please that you sent us to Camp Shawu we had the place to ourselves, Juluka our guide was fantastic we learnt so much from him, Saw plenty of wildlife, saw lions 3 times (saw them eating the buffalo that they had killed overnight) we saw the outline of 2 leopards lounging in a tree after they had killed a impala (which was hanging in another tree) as it was getting dark.

For future reference seeing as you didn't know anything about Buhala Lodge it was very nice, right on the banks of the Ccrocodile River great food and service and the other guests staying there who went on game drives into Kruger saw just as much game and sometimes more than what we did. It is also the only lodge at the moment that allows guests to play golf at Leopard Creek which I have to tell you is absolutely fantastic and extremely very private. All in all a fantastic holiday, Africia has so much to offer and I would like to thank you again for all your help and guidance I will definately use your services again if we get back there(which we would love to do)

Cheers andf thank you.
