Absolutely brilliant, I never imagined I’d get so close to the animals, especially the crocs and the lions! Nkula is the best guide, funny, knowledgeable, and seeks out exactly what you’re looking for. He made our holiday so special. Highly recommend him and the company.

Also thanks to our guide who was very Professional, friendly and very genuine to our answers whenever we ask!.

I and 4 of my friends from India had a fantastic 10 days Botswana safari with Tony from 27th August to 4th September 2022. Starting from Maun and ending in Kasane, our mobile camps were set up at BOGA (Botswana Guides Association) Camp Sites in absolute wilderness in Moremi Game Reserve (near North Gate), Savuti Marsh and Chobe River-front.

Mobile camp has its own charm and excitement. The amenities are absolutely basic; but the experience of living in the wild, with animals around and without any other human beings, is unique and exciting. At night, the sound of lions, leopard, hyenas, hippos and of elephants bathing in the river nearby are quite unforgettable as are the sight of impalas, wildebeests and lechwe grazing in the vicinity of the campsites during the day with friendly hornbills, francolins and glossy starlings foraging for food around our tents.

What made our safari really outstanding and memorable was Tony (Antony Ntalamo) himself. We were lucky that Tony was available to drive us on this safari. A wonderful person with his own style of wit and humour, Tony impressed us with his knowledge and expertise of the wild environment and animal behaviour. Being a keen photographer himself, Tony would place the vehicle at just the right place for the best shots. We had some exciting close encounters with elephants, lions and leopard and saw plenty of cape buffaloes (including some very large herds), impalas, zebras, wildebeests, greater kudus, waterbucks, giraffes, hippos, chacma baboons, crocodiles and a variety of other animals and birds. We were also lucky to see Roan Antelopes and one Sable.

Ronald & Ben efficiently set up our mobile camp with food and campfire ready at the right time. It was amazing how Ronald was baking delicious bread, muffins and even pizza in his "jungle oven". Hot "bucket shower" was available when required. Night temperature would dip to as low as 14 degrees celsius and the sleeping bag on the folding bed was just about enough to keep us warm. The day time weather was sunny and pleasant with maximum temperature around 25 degrees celsius which made our game drives quite enjoyable.

Our safari ended with boat rides on Chobe River near Kasane and I was lucky to see elephants crossing the river. It was a wonder how the small baby elephants swam across the 200 feet wide river with a depth of about 10 to 15 feet protected of course by the senior members of the herd all around. Tony has a 8 seater motor-boat which made our boat rides exclusive and more enjoyable. Watching animals from the boat added another perspective to our safari. Elephants, cape buffaloes, impalas, waterbucks , hippos, crocodiles and other animals on the river bank allowed us to approach them much closer on the boat - which would not have been possible on our game drives.

To sum up, for the real wildlife lover and photography enthusiast, a mobile safari with Tony is most highly recommended.
