Safari authentique

We spent 20 days with Travel Creations Botswana...going from Maun north to Kasane. We started communicating with David early (a year in advance), and he was always polite, fast to respond and incorporated all our suggestions (eg., avoid the pans near Maun in the dry/hot season). Along the route, he met us a time or two to deliver supplies we requested (diet ginger soda; toothpaste; soap and a better inverter for the car battery so we had electricity to charge phones/camera batteries etc). We would highly recommend bringing Starlink (and share it with the staff. Since we were in the middle of nowhere for 20 days, being in communication with people back home, or knowing the News - that was essential. And because the staff was away from their families, they could keep in touch with their kids and wives). The cook, MACHINE, is truly amazing - the food was incredible - and varied. We don't know how he did it over an open fire (especially the fresh bread) - it was great...we never went hungry or disappointed...and had desert almost every night was well. Our recommendations: do your research on where you want to go - and how much time to spend in each place We liked Savuti, Moremi...less so Kwhai. The Mokoro (boats) on the water were fun - but for 2 trips only. Finally, we saw others who payed much more for similar trips with similar safari companies - about the only thing the extra money got was a nicer (newer) vehicle. Save your money, and go with Travel Creations Botswana - they are efficient, hard working - will look out for your best interests...and easy to work with. David is great...Machine is the best cook...and bring a headlamp that has a red light setting (so at night you don't attract insects when eating or walking).

We were a party of five who spent two weeks under the excellent care of Travel Creations Botswana in a mobile tented safari from Maun to Victoria Falls. Right from the outset organizing an itinerary David’s flexibility and super quick responses including rescheduling as Botswana has just had the wettest summer in decades (Moremi closed at short notice) were very impressive. The team included a guide and driver, a cook and two others to set up camp and they all did a magnificent job. All conveyed that their goal was to make our trip comfortable and memorable. The catering for vegetarians was also very well done. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the game and also the birdlife and trees of the area. Due to the experience of our guide and good tracking we were able to find lion and wild dogs and even a leopard pair mating. For those not looking for the luxury of a lodge but the sheer enjoyment of being alone in the bush with local people with whom one can connect I can unreservedly recommend this local Maun company. The tented mobile safari offered was in all aspects a great experience. A big thank you to the team: Screamer (guide), Machine (cook) and Ona and Jomo, and of course David.

We took the 5 night 6 day safari from Maun to Kasane via Khwai, Savuti and Chobe NPs. We were a group of 4. We spent 2 nights in a tent in Khwai and 2 in Savuti. Then the last night in Water Lily Lodge, Kasane. The tents were large and the private toilet, a blessing! Plus the shower. The camp staff, Dix and Barcelona, were very attentive and efficient, addressing all our needs and more, even with a 'turn down' service. Machine, our chef, was amazing, taking into account the limitations of cooking in the bush over a fire! The food was varied and plentiful. The campsites were to ourselves and magical, Khwai was next to a river and Savuti in the bush. Our guide, Jame (pronounced Jammie) was the absolute best! He is called Leopard Man for good reason and he did not disappoint. We saw everything we could've hoped for and more. Everyday we were blessed with more amazing sightings of magnificent animals and wildlife scenes. From the leopards in Khwai to the lions of Savuti. Jame's knowledge of the entire area is really impressive and he reads animal movement well, getting us into position for the animal to appear. He is extremely patient too, at times allowing us to be the only jeep in that area, waiting for the sighting. David, who I communicated with to organise our last minute trip, was very responsive and helpful. All in all, a magical trip with many memories made and a fabulous way to travel from Maun to Kasane. Thank you the Travel Creation Botswana team!

Without hesitation, you must reserve at least a full day to visit this Moremi park with Travel creation Botswana and Ask for the Luckson guide! The organizer is called David, and he’s great! He took us to the improbable corners of this park. She discovered wild animals. We had unforgettable encounters, particularly with Lions and lionesses and hippos. It’s a long drive to get to this park from Maun, but it’s definitely worth the trip!
