We had a 3 night Victoria Falls package put together by Batoka Safaris packed with exciting activities for the whole family. Activities included a sunset cruise, a tour of the falls, lion & elephant encounters and a game drive. Solomon, our driver was friendly, punctual, always smartly dressed and willing to go the extra mile to accommodate even our smallest requests. He was patient with our young children and willing to answer general questions. Solomon ensured smooth handovers to third party service providers when they were required. Thank you Batoka Safaris for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Batoka Safaris for group travel and touring.

With three extra days in Namibia, I decided to include a quick trip to Etosha. I struggled to find a company that was still operational, and met my needs. Then I chatted with Megan, representative with Across Africa. I quickly knew she was actually interested in helping. Her sincerity, honesty, humanity and dedication were recognized immediately, and I knew that I didn’t need to search further. She set up my trip with no hidden BS, made an effort to meet all my needs, and did all of it promptly, professionally, and graciously. My trip turned out perfectly down to the last detail. I credit Megan and my guide Steve for making my quick visit to Etosha unforgettable. Because of them I will use Across Africa in the future and suggest to others that they do the same!

Had a great trip on the mokoro with a local guide called Elijah arranged through Kalahari Breeze. Great communication and planning from Chris and team to help us prepare (eg timings, what to bring etc). Was about 1 hour drive from the hotel to the village. At the village we were met by Elijah to go on the mokoro. On the way out (upstream) the mokoro ride was about 1.5 hours with a few hippo sightings along the way. It’s completely exposed so make sure bring sunscreen / long sleeves! Once we arrived at the island we did a walking safari / hike for about 3 hours. It was quite long in the brutal heat but well worth it as Elijah was able to show us elephants, giraffe and wildebeest - all from afar but still much more than we were expecting. We then had a quick lunch prepared by Chris and team and set off back to the village on the mokoro. The way back was quicker as downstream and just as well after a long day. We got back by about 3:30pm. Overall a great day out and way to experience the Okavango delta. Highly recommend!
