    I have done many game drive/safari trips that were wonderful -- with other companies. This tour was operated with EXTREME DISREGARD FOR SAFETY. I was repeatedly in poorly maintained safari vehicles, which due to the irresponsibility of the tour operator left my group stranded in the remote bush of Moreni Game Reserve for two days. No rescue ever came. There was no communications equipment in the vehicle to reach anyone. There was no emergency gear or safety equipment (we couldn't even light a signal fire to let rescuers know where we were). I would NEVER do anything with this company again.

    Hi Mr Dudycha, I note your review, and also the reviews stated on other platforms. I want to immediately address the fact that you were stuck overnight – not two days. This happened late afternoon on the day you were in Moremi Game Reserve on your way... Show more

    Amazing place and service, everything was excellent! Our tour guide was super knowledgable and friendly and we were able to see so many different animals in our safari. And at nights the lodge was superb to wind down and with delicious food!

    Overall this tour was a nice experience, with people friendliness and the marvel of the environment as the stars of the show. The camp experience is not on par with other camps I've been at that cost less money, if not for the food. I've felt a bit in danger at night, with animals roaming around. PROS - people have been super nice - James, my guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful with everything - the food was really good - there are many birds around the camp, which is great if you like to birdwatch - the helicopter ride was great, if a bit too short CONS - the tent was really small, with a bed that wouldn't fit me even though I'm average height - the bathrooms are not very clean. Being open, means there are many bugs there - the camp is quite dirty with cattle dung, and there are many farm animals roaming around (it was fine by me once I understood that they are roaming everywhere and they are people's main livelihood) - the transfers to get to the mokoro station and to Moremi are really long, 2 and 3.5 hours respectively - the bush walk was very short, would have loved to have had more time for it, maybe it should start one hour earlier

    This is Horrible no Human Values and no Humanity Tour Company. I booked 3 Nights and 4 days Boteti Tented Safari Lodge. Tents were very Hot due to Tarpaulin and Unexpected heat wave. Unable to stay in lodge. Cancelled tour and booked Airconditioned hotel in Maun and stayed. asked for refund due to heat wave. they said no. Their main Moto is to make money not service. daytime rip-off.
