'Namibia, Botswana and Falls' was a trip of a lifetime! Our guide Mishek was wonderful, he was really informative, kind and caring. The standard of the accommodation surpassed my expectations. We stayed in some really beautiful boutique properties in spectacular locations. The highlight had to be Ugab Terrace Lodge and the Desert Quiver Camp in Sesriem. Drive days are long and the roads are bumpy but you have to expect that when you're covering such long distances and taking in all the highlights. There was plenty of room in our overland truck for the group to spread out and we all got on so well that time passed quickly. The game drives in Chobe and Etosha were brilliant and I loved the mokoro ride in the Okavango Delta. I also took the optional scenic flight over the Okavango Delta which was incredible! I'd highly recommend this tour, I loved every minute of it!
