Neil Maddock review 28 Aug 20094 star rating

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


Camping and game drives in Moremi. We really were in the centre of a National Park but provided we followed our guides instructions we felt safe. Being within 10 ft of a pride of lions in an open sided vehicle with only a spade! as protection was exhilarating.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?


Don't worry about the standard of accommodation - it far exceeded our expectations.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?


Yes, the local guides and staff were extremely knowledgeable about the environment and recognised that minimising the impact of tourism was to everyone’s benefit. This was particularly the case in Moremi National Park.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?


Excellent. As a family experience it could not be beaten. The guides and staff were excellent and made our holiday extremely informative and fun.
