Accommodation:

Maun: Clients will stay on Thursday and Sunday nights at a great camp just outside Maun. The included accommodation is camping. However, the camp offers comfortable wooden rooms / chalets with & without bathrooms. Clients do have the option of upgrading accommodation to bedded accommodation, when they arrive at the camp. We will pay the camping rate, and the clients pay the balance.

nside the Okavango Delta: No luxuries. We do bush camping inside the Okavango Delta, which means that there is no electricity, no buildings (or bathrooms), no running water and no fences. What we take with us, is what we have.

Without flights:

This package is also available to clients who are already in Botswana, but do not have camping equipment, or do not want to stay in one of the more expensive upmarket lodges inside the Okavango Delta. Our guide will meet the clients on Thursday afternoon in Maun, after which they join the rest of the group, and the guide will drop them off in Maun on Monday morning after breakfast. This means that the package is exactly the same as the above flight package, excluding the return fights.

We also offer 3 & 4 day tours (every day) to Kruger national park. Clients can do (as below) a Kruger park tour which can be combined with the above flight package. This is ideal for clients with limited time that want to see as much as possible, in the shortest time possible. This combination includes all that is included on our Kruger national park tours + all the above + accommodation in Johannesburg on the last night of the Kruger park leg + transfers to Johannesburg International Airport on the day that the clients fly to Maun.

Important tour / safari information

Participation tours: All tours are participation tours. This means that the clients are responsible for pitching their own tents (except inside Kruger Park), and washing up after every meal, which is social event where people chat and get to know each other. Some guides may ask the clients to assist with the chopping and cleaning of vegetables, while the guide prepares the meals.

What to take on tour: Clothing and personal effects Comfortable shoes for walking Warm clothing for the evenings Basic first aid kit Insect repellent Anti-Malaria medicine Sunblock and cap or hat Comfortable shoes for walking Slip slops or trainers Camera with extra film & batteries Torch with extra batteries

Tent, sleeping bag and roll matt: We provides all the camping equipment including a roll matt with cover that is washed after every tour, and a 2.2 x 2.2 (meters) or 2.4 x 2.4 (meters) tent with built in mosquito netting over the door and windows, as well as a built in floor. You must have a sleeping bag on all of the camping tours, which you can rent from us at R50 per person per tour, if you do not have one of your own.

Malaria areas: Many of the areas and destinations in southern and east Africa are malaria areas. It is the responsibility of the client to ensure that you have insect repellent and a course of anti-malaria tablets. Consult your local doctor or pharmacist.

Water: All drinks (except coffee & tea with meals) are excluded from the tour price. All tap water in areas where we do tours to, are 100% safe to drink, and tastes very good. Bottled water is freely available (every day), for those who prefer bottled water.

Laws and clients: We expect our clients to uphold the laws of each country that we visit while on tour. We do not accept any responsibility for any client on our tours, who breaks the laws of any country visited during a tour.

Be considered: Sometimes our guides are asked to stop at local villages along the road, so that clients can take photos. Nothing wrong with that, but then we often see the people just walking into a village taking photos, instead of doing it from the road. Keep in mind that a village will normally be a family living together. How would you feel if a stranger just walks into your yard or home and start taking photos?

Our clients: All our clients are international travellers from different countries. The ages of our clients range from 18 to 60, with the majority being between 20 and 40. All that we require from our clients is that they must enjoy travelling and be fun-loving people. You do not need to be super fit to participate in any of our included activities or adventures.

Our crew (guides & drivers): All our guides and drivers are registered with the authorities as per government regulations.

Our tours: We offer a variety of tours and safaris to a variety of destinations, from 3 days to 16 days. You have the option of camping or lodge (bedded) accommodation, while on any of our tours / safaris.

Important: Before you travel please check your Tour Voucher and Arrival Information for the latest joining instructions. This will be sent to you upon receipt of final payment.

All itineraries are subject to change without prior notice.
