From
2,290
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Every day was a different wonder but the two days wild camping at the Okavanga
Delta were really special.
Tips?
Be prepared for very early starts and not much relaxing times.
Local benefits?
Yes, local guides were used in a number of locations but obviously driving such
long distances is not exactly environmentally friendly.
Overall rating?
Excellent. (more)christina monson

Memorable parts?
Flying over Victoria falls on a microlite. This is a paid extra but worth every penny.
Tips?

From
£845
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
The Serengeti and Zanzibar. The animals in the wild life reserves were in abundance and Zanzibar is an interesting place with such a chequered history. The beaches in the north are lovely and the snorkeling near Prison Island fantastic.
Tips?
Take enough DET and new US dollars and don't expect to have much internet access. Also take a comfortable bed - either a thickish air matress or a camp bed as it's not that comfortable sleeping so close to the ground for that... (more)Stephanie Foster

Memorable parts?
Most memorable moments were the sunset cruise and land safari at Chobe National Park in Botswana. Also camping at Elephant Sands where you can see elephants at a waterhole for hours.
Tips?
By all means go to southern Africa but do NOT book with this holiday provider. Before I booked I asked about what vehicle would be used on this trip. I was told about their great safari truck but for Game Trails both camping and accommodation trips they only use a minivan. It was... (more)Nancy Wiesenfeld
