Botswana
I have clients who have returned from Botswana.
The trip was amazing. We arrived in Kasane airport and were picked up and taken to our lodge. The Ngoma Lodge was out of this world, to say the least! The managers Wes and Roxanne were most welcoming, and the staff were equally friendly and most helpful. It was just us and a couple from the UK, so we really felt like VIP’s
We were taken on a game drive and then headed back for dinner and then went back out on a night drive. The following day after a fab breakfast we were taken on a Chobe River Safari. We had a delicious lunch onboard and saw lots of game, in the afternoon we went on a safari and we saw 3 different sightings of lions, a wild dog kill and lots more game. We headed back to the lodge for diner (which was delicious) and enjoyed a few drinks before heading for bed. The next morning, we had an early morning game drive at 5am. We arrive back in time for breakfast and we headed onto Kasane Airport where we were collected and taken to Zimbabwe. Overall, I would rate the Safari Lodge 10/10.
When we arrived in Zim, we headed straight to the bridge where my son did his bungee jump! We then went on the Zambezi river cruise, that was fab! The weather was dry, and we saw game (but nothing as good as Kasane). That evening we spent at Elephant Hills Resort, there was a big conference on, and we met some interesting people. The next morning, we got up early and went to do the Falls walk, it was raining heavily! But I have to say we both really enjoyed it. We were the first in, so got to enjoy the falls to ourselves. We headed back to the hotel to dry off and pack for the airport.
Unfortunately, we were delayed at Vic Falls Airport due to rain and heavy cloud, so the plane couldn’t land, anyhow, it eventually did despite the weather and a power cut at the airport.
Overall, we both had a wonderful time. Laura thank you so much for organising such a fantastic trip. I would absolutely love to bring my husband there in the future, I think we would probably start off in the Okavango and then go on to Kasane. He really wants to see the Falls. I have given your contact details to a friend in JHB. Thank you again Laura, you certainly went above and beyond my expectations like booking our seats, checking us in etc.
