    I had the most incredible experience with Kalahari Breeze Safaris in the Okavango Delta. It was truly the highlight of my entire road trip. The serene beauty of the Delta, along with the guidance of Craig and our two local Mokoro guides, made for an unforgettable adventure. Visiting the village was a unique and enriching experience, allowing me to connect more deeply with the local culture and our guides. The genuine care shown for the animals, the environment and the relationship between nature and people throughout the tour made it even more special. I wholeheartedly recommend Kalahari Breeze Safaris to anyone looking for a memorable and authentic journey. Thank you for creating such lasting memories!

    I received excellent service. It was way beyond anything that I would have expected. I did go during the less touristy month of November, nevertheless I received great personal care and service. I went for game drive to the Moremi park and I also did the canoe/Mokoro activity. The manager, Lesego, is great. I can not say enough good things about her. I hope you enjoy your visit to Maun and Okavango Delta.

    We had an amazing time!

    Our guide Moses was a brilliant guide and ensured that we had a very positive experience taking home with us memories of a huge array of animals, previously only seen in books and zoos! His knowledge of animals, birds, trees and plant life was amazing!

    Simon and the team looked after us really well despite the challenges they faced with punctures and supply trucks. We loved our tents and found the camp beds really comfortable and the al fresco showers and loo surprisingly easy. Having animals so close to our camp made this especially magical.

    The river safari in Chobe was a great end to the trip, allowing us to see many of the animals a lot closer up and from a different perspective, and the transfer from Chobe to Victoria Falls went very smoothly.

    If we were doing this again, we would add in one or two extra days so that we could build in more 2-night stays during the holiday (we did a 5-day trip). This would make it more relaxing allowing for an occasional afternoon siesta instead of consecutive days of long drives. That said, we thoroughly enjoyed what we did despite being very tired at the end!

    A wonderful holiday and one that we will definitely recommend to others.

    On the communication side, everything was great, but an indication of the potential travel times each day (in addition to the morning and evening jeep safaris) would have helped with our planning and to manage our expectations of time on the "road".

    Five-Star Review for Safari Addicts’ Okavango Delta Experience

    Our one-day Okavango Delta tour with Safari Addicts was a memorable adventure, filled with local insights, close encounters with wildlife, and fantastic hospitality. Although they were a bit late for the pickup, Master and Phil, our guides, owned the delay, apologized sincerely, and even gifted us bracelets as a thoughtful gesture.

    The safari vehicle was exceptionally comfortable, outfitted with cold water, blankets, and plenty of padding—perfect for a day out in the Delta. Master and Phil, who are brothers, brought a unique perspective as they both grew up in a village near the entrance of the Moremi Game Reserve. One of the highlights was getting to visit this village, where they shared stories about traditional life, showed us how locals get a cell signal, and even let us experience brushing our teeth with a “toothbrush tree.” It was these personal touches that truly set the experience apart.

    Our day was packed with a variety of activities that included a game drive where we saw elephants, giraffes, antelope, hippos, and crocodiles. The guides’ knowledge and sharp eyesight made spotting wildlife an exciting part of the journey. The traditional canoe ride, with a “poller” guiding us through the water, was a standout experience, especially as we got to explore the unique flora along the way.

    Lunch was pleasant and filling, set up under a shaded spot with animals in the background. While we might have preferred a bit more protein, the chicken, potatoes, and especially the spicy peri-peri sauce were satisfying.

    While the 12-hour day was a bit lengthy for us, it was exactly as promised, and they continued to impress with their commitment to making the day worthwhile. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, authentic, and immersive way to experience the Delta, Safari Addicts is a great choice. This tour strikes a fine balance between the thrill of wildlife, cultural immersion, and the relaxed pace of a day with local guides. Highly recommended!

    What a great experience. Communication was spot on and professional. Maria, the owner, is super pleasant and willing to help in any way. Let's start with the ride. My description might sound negative, but it is not. We found it to be one of the highlights of the trip. Probably 70 miles off grid on rugged bumpy roads. I think people would pay just for the experience. The Delta is an untouched oasis of what life has been like for thousands of years. "Raps" was our guide. Excellent choice. As a poler he is skilled and as a guide he is informative and speaks near perfect English. He has a great personality and sense of humor. Hippos, giraffe, various birds, impala, buffalo...all were present. The Bushwalk brought us within 20 feet of 6 giraffes feeding and a small group of zebra.

    The campsite epitomized what camping is all about. Tents were set up, liens provided plus some basic essentials. We were greeted warmly and offered a fresh wet towel to freshen. The site was positioned near a large watering hole so plenty of wildlife came into view. Baboons and several listed above were present. Master was our head guide and he is focused on providing you with the best experience seeing the animals. He did not disappoint. Lions, ostrich, Buffalo, wild dogs, hyenas, various birds, plus more. OG was the head chef and delivered great quality food throughout the day. All food is cooked on open flame and he makes the best bread. Cooked in the ground covered in coals this bread was legit. You must add this to your Africa safari plans. We WILL BE BACK!

    We had a wonderful trip in the Okavango with Mosu Safari Tours. We saw so many animals and birds and felt completely safe the entire time. Communication beforehand by Kemy was excellent. Our cook and camp hostess, Temptation, was an absolute gem and really went out of her way to make the experience as good as it could possibly be, even helping celebrate my sister's birthday in the most wonderfully memorable way. Our community guides were mostly friendly and were keen to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. The camp was very comfortable and the food was outstanding. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone wanting a beautiful immersive delta experience.

    If you are seeking to be close to the animals, observe them from your camp chair, watch them roam through the campsite at night and early morning, then this is the safari for you. On this unforgettable 11 day journey we navigated the tranquil waters of the Okavango Delta, up early for daily safaris with our knowledgable guide O.T who prioritises your safety while enriching your adventure all the time incorporating everything the magical savannah delivers. The thrill of spotting native wildlife; lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffe, impala, elephants, painted dogs, hyenas and many more all in the comfort of your vehicle, boat or mokoro. Our meals and sleep were interrupted by the call of the wild, so don't miss this opportunity to create lasting memories as you soak up and sweat the harsh beauty of Botswana, Lastly, a special thanks to our "safari Squad" OT, (guide), Ollie (cook), Election (driver & camp hand) and Freddie (apprentice camp hand). Everyday you rose with a smile, great food and company as we journeyed through Moremi, Kwai, Delta, and Chobe National Park. This was a safari of a lifetime. Highly recommend Walking Stick tours to anyone who is adventurous and truly awaits to capture the African calling. Do not hesitate and book now.

    One word: wow. From the minute we enquired to the minute we got home we had an incredible experience with Kalahari Breeze. This was a reasonably last minute decision with a friend and it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. Maria couldn’t have done enough to help with the organisation, and it was a joy that she decided to come along for the trip too.
    Not only did we have some amazing sightings of animals, they also came at no cost to the animal. Maria and our amazing guide & driver Clifford ensured that at all times we gave the animals space and respect, which actually led to more meaningful sightings. Cliff was so knowledgable of the animals and the landscape and I learned so much from him. He was also an incredible driver!
    The camp team of OG, Machana and Craig were so welcoming and we felt so well looked after and almost pampered which I wasn’t expecting in a camp in the middle of the bush! The food was delicious and varied, they catered for dietary requirements and everything was served with fun and a smile.
    For those who are hesitant of camping, this would honestly be a really good first step into being more adventurous, as everything is thought of and it’s a good mix of being in the middle of no where but with some creature comforts!
    At all times the team made us feel safe, supported and cared for. I can’t wait to come back to Botswana and book onto another tour with Kalahari Breeze.

    Amazing day, giraffes and elephants on the track in. Within 30minutes of reaching the park we were 2.5 metres away from a leopard keeping an eye on the antelope. Drove for another 20 minutes to see a massive herd of Zebra drove around the corner to a pride of 4 lions looking well feed relaxing under a tree once again amazingly close. Then went in search of the painted wild dog low and behold we found a pack of this endangered species once again with a very good viewing point of them relaxing in the shade. All in one day is pretty amazing.

    Such a great lodge and safari experience! Food was amazing, lodge was comfortable and friendly/helpful staff. Team was helpful, picked us up and dropped us back off to our hotel in Maun.

    The game drive was amazing and we were lucky enough to see the big 5. Kay was our driver and he was brilliant! He was so passionate about the animals and very knowledgeable about all aspects.

    What an amazing experience we had with Kalahari Breeze!
    This was our first time in Botswana where we did the 8 day wild camping in Okavango and Moremi followed by two days to the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans. In the months leading up to the trip, we were in frequent communication with the lovely Maria and Chris who listened to our interest and guided us to our perfect tour.

    The first 3 days were spent in the inner Okavango Delta where transport to the campsite was by Mokoro. Gliding through the long grass whilst spotting hippos in the distance really set the standard high! Our campsite was untouched tranquility with only the animals for company, so much so we even had a family of elephants visit us one afternoon which was a real highlight. The walking tours within Okavango were a great experience having previous only done game drives in previous trips. The food was excellent throughout all cooked on an open fire!

    The game/scenery in Moremi was a great contrast to the Okavango. Once again our guide was incredibly knowledgable and the camp staff raced to ensure our camp was ready for arrival.

    Sleeping under the stars in the Salt pans was definitely worth the trip and added to our experience in seeing the different aspects to Botswana.

    With June being the coldest month (temps dropping to 2 degrees at night) Maria and Chris really thought about all the finishing touches including hot water bottles at night!

    With Botswana being one of the few places where you can in fact “wild-camp”, this trip truly felt like an authentic experience. We would love to come back again.

    A magical place to visit to see the African Wildlife up close and observe these beautiful animals in the wild. So many animals to see, Majestic Elephants, Lions, Giraffes, Zebras, Leopards, Wildebeest, Wild Dogs, Hippopotamus and so many birds. Our Guide Clifford was so aware of where all the animals were, and had been, that we were able to see so many every day. We were so well looked after by the camp staff, and the food was great. It was amazing to hear some of the animals at night from our tents, and we felt completely safe at all times. We would highly recommend Kalahari Breeze Safaris.

    It was a Trip of a Lifetime, we loved every minute of it !!!

    Total scam. Poor communication from the beginning. Guide insisted on a briefing. Did not show. Day of tour. Did not show. No call, no email, NOTHING. Get ready for a fight. I want my money back. You ruined an entire day of what should have been a dream vacation. If a lion, cheetah or leopard didn't eat you then you are just a low level scam artist.
