We look back on a fantastic trip with plenty of highlights

Botswana & Zimbabwe

Mr Hesp and his son traveled for two weeks through Botswana and Zimbabwe. After a flight to Johannesburg (South Africa) their journey started in the Okavango Delta after which Moremi Game Reserve, the Savuti Region, followed Chobe National Park to conclude with a visit to Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe).

Dear Joseph and employees,

As you may remember, my son and I have two years  looking forward to this journey. We are now looking back on a fantastic trip  with many highlights. It flew by and we were already ahead  lost all sense of time halfway through the journey.  Robbert has pasted hundreds of photos behind his camera  made where quite a number of prize winners will be among them!

You know the route we have traveled very well yourself, so  just a few comments on that.  The outward journey was via J'Burg to Maun with a stopover in J'Burg. on  feel fine, only it was a surprise for us that the luggage was already there  piped through. Luckily I had some toiletries in my hand luggage. It  seems to be more common, but in the information there is a  point of interest.  The seat reservation was completely fine, both on the outward and on the  return trip. Those comfort seats at KLM are an invention and on the  return trip at the emergency exits and near the toilet it was also best  to hold out.

Interim flight transports in Botswana are a positive and  adventurous experience in itself.  The camp/lodge destinations were more than ok for us. Even though worked in  Gunn's camp only the cold water tap in our tent. Wake up right away!  Probably because a connection to the solar system is not good  sat. It was picked up a bit 'lazy', which was certainly not characteristic  for the rest of the service. We are probably because of you
Moremi transferred to Gunn because the first was rented out for a  wedding party. Due to circumstances I was in Moremi and have both camps  can compare. We were quite happy with the choice because Gunn  smaller and more intimate. 

That certainly also applies to Sango, again in a completely different ecological way  surroundings. Max. 12 guests just like Gunn, nice crew and a knowledgeable guide.  The night safari in particular was very spectacular.  We found Ghoha Hills the most appealing camp. It is beautifully situated.  Maybe we were lucky because at the time of arrival we had the
were only guests. Beautiful secluded lodge! Highly recommended  for the Botswana traveler. Nice management.

The Kubu Safari Lodge was very different again. You almost imagine yourself in the  habited world. Beautiful trip over the river and a spectacular drive  among the elephants. Hippos between the lodges! Vic. Falls Ilala Lodge is a beautiful ending to relax  come into an English colonial environment. We took a helicopter ride  above the falls and the walking tour that goes with it as well as a  boat trip. For the boat trip we would have done better to make use of  the special boat that the lodge has at its disposal. Also displays  more pleasant company than a reservation through Wild Horizon. You should  let's know! So a point of attention in the information.

The food was everywhere more than excellent. Just the sometimes  entertaining announcements already make you hungry. I thought it was remarkable that  my dietary requirements had been met.

Looking back: we would have made no other choices and want a  would like to recommend such a trip. Maybe a slightly shorter stay in  VF, if the accent is on the Falls, and a little longer in one of the  lodges, for example in Ghoha. That certainly wouldn't have been a punishment.  The contact with your agency was exemplary. The documentation is fine.

Greetings to all who helped and hopefully see you again  later on. My daughter already wants to come with me!
