Maun Experience was a great surprise ! An authentic cultural tour with a great guide.
For a morning or afternoon free time in Maun it is the perfect option to discover the local life before to leave for a safari. A real immersion in the local community a different way to discover Botswana and not only wildlife.
During 3 hours we meet locals, their everyday life, the culture and traditions.
We saw schools, studients with uniform, different type of houses, village, city center, famous Tuck shops along the roads, car wash, hairdressers, barbers, driving school, taxi parking ...
We stopped and visited the market where we walked around and met local people : Prince an street artist, Mma Kushunya with very nice weaving baskets, Mma Tafa who create traditional skirts Khiba...
At the end of the tour, a delicious lunch is served with local food at Acacia Café.
I am a travel agent, and I will recommend this tour to my clients for a great local experience.

Don't just fly in and out of the Okavango Delta on your expensive safari, do this little cultural tour in and around Maun with a local guide and really connect with local people and experience their way of life. It's authentic and real and will enrich your African experience.

What a fantastic and unique experience! As if I had never been to Maun in my life before - I actually visited a couple of times in the past - handpicked places visited that all used to seem so ' normal' but with the background and the personal encounters these special places and spaces all of a sudden became magic: meeting people and handcrafters at the local market, listen to the Bridge story at Sports Bar. Ref arts: spectacular (from the tough business lady at the weaver shop, to the street art at the local carwash, that practically combines with resident hairdressers, an EPIC space. Lunch at the end at the lovely museum site, at Akacia Restaurant, absolutely delicious, what a fine tasting of authentic local food, superb presentation, good vibes - all in all the guides are the keys and the team oozed enthusiasm and knowledge, infectious from the beginning to the end when you ask yourself why have you never moved to this place with this cool evolving scene in the middle of the beautiful wilderness of Botswana
