I'm considering booking a last minute trip to Botswana. I have a couple of questions about the trip. Will there be any mokoro safaris in the okavango delta area? I'm also curious about the age range of people currently booked on the April 5th tour. I'm 30yrs old and would love to know if there are similarly aged friends already booked.

Is there any chance for a walking safari? Would a vegetarian diet be able to be catered to?

Sam was a great guide, showing us how to spot animal behaviors and tracking wildlife. He is a highly competent and very communicative guide and Driver.The food was very good, well prepared and plentiful. The staff in every location accommodated my gluten-free sugar-free requirement with Grace and entertaining options. Some of the drives were too far. Too many hours in the truck bouncing around. The houseboat lacked screens and the high temperature and high humidity was less than fun. During our five day rough camp, the afternoon recess where there was no place to get away from the extreme heat was less than ideal. And if you could put a better refrigerator in the truck it would help as well.Show more

Thank you for such a lovely four star review! It's so great to see you had a great time in Botswana with us, and thank for you for your kind words about your Tour Leader, Sam. I will be sure to pass on your lovely comments to him and the rest of the team behind this adventure. Thank you as well for your feedback about the houseboat and some of the drives, I will pass this on to our Local Partners to see if there are any changes which need to be made. Feedback such as yours is the only way for us to ensure our trips are running to the high standard which we expect. We hope you decide to join us on another Explore adventure again soon!

This trip takes you deep into Botswana with Chobe, Saudi and Okavango yielding many up close animal sightings. It does include 5 nights of rough camping and most transportation is in a 12 passenger open sided jeep so be prepared to get windswept and dusty. Our guide, Phenyu, was outstanding in that he was exceptionally knowledgeable about the wildlife and attentive to the needs of his group. The one unresolved issue we had was with Explore and their subcontracted company Wilderness Dawning. We were switched to a different houseboat the day before before we were to arrive there. The new houseboat was promised to be an upgrade but was actually, at best, a 2 star experience with some rooms not having proper bathrooms. The new boat added 2 additional hours to an already 11 hour trip to Victoria Falls in that open sided jeep. Under protest, the company picked up one dinner and provided a hot van for part of the drive and has promised compensation which has yet to materialize.Show more

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted you enjoyed the incredible wildlife encounters in Botswana and that your Tour Leader, Phenyu took such great care of your group. We’re truly sorry for the disruption caused by the houseboat change and its impact, and we’ve already been in touch with your group directly with our apologies and compensation. We hope the many special memories from your adventure stay with you and we hope to welcome you on another Explore trip in the future.
