A great tour

A great tour.

Our guide was incredibly knowledgable and always happy to help out if we needed anything.

The tour itself was great fun and we saw some incredible places. Camping out at night and listening to the animals was unreal.

Also the food was delicious, Snake (the chef) did a wonderful job! Thanks guys.

Well run tour, wish we could have spent more time in the parks

We loved our guide and cook, Morgan and Snake. Overall, a very functional and well-run tour. Downside is that you just scratch the surface of every park visited, staying only a few hours before needing to hit the road again. One disappointment was only getting to spend a couple hours at the edge of the Okavango Delta (considering the park is meant to be a jewel). This is a good choice if you want everything to be planned well and are okay with seeing a small amount of every destination.

Wonderful Bucklist Trip to Botswana

We enjoyed a wonderful person trip with Okavango Expeditions.
The trip offered us the perfect opportunity to see alot of Botswana in one trip. The hospitality of Morgan (Our Guide) and Noga (Our Chef / Cook) was second to none. The food was excellent and Morgan was very knowledgeable of the animals, birds and bush. We saw a lot of animals. The thrill of seeing in a tent in the middle of no where will be a topic of conversation for many years to come as well as showering under a tree. We look forward to returning to Botswana very soon. What a magical and wild place.

We really enjoyed our safari

We really enjoyed our safari. We had an excellent guide, Sam, who simply knew where the animals are. We loved our tent accomodations, the bush-kitchen and the always friendly and helpful stuff, especcially the warm water bottels in the morning and at night.
We wish to come back to this wonderful place.

Great week camping in Botswana

Thank you Morgan and Noga ‘Snake’ for a wonderful BOB tour in July. Morgan’s driving and navigation skills and his comprehensive knowledge of the bush, birds and animals combined with Noga’s camping and cooking skills ensured a safe, relaxed and entertaining week in the beautiful Botswanan bush. A good sense of humour and willingness to help around the campsite by our fellow tourists made it a great adventure. Thank you!

5-day Botswana trip

5-day Botswana trip.

We had a great trip through Botswana with Okavango Expeditions. Our two guides, Morgan and Noga, were perfect, so hard-working and friendly and great companions. We did the camping safari, which involved full participation with putting up and taking down tents and helping out with washing dishes and other tasks. We felt much more involved than usual and honestly wouldn't do any other kind of safari. I highly recommend going with Okavango.
