The Safari is so much more enhanced when you have the opportunity to get a glimpse into the local culture the Maun Immersive Tour provides. The Immersive tour is such a great insight into the real Botswana. This tour is designed with the local people in Maun. Not only did I feel good but I also knew that I was getting to see more of the real life in and around Maun, I recommend this for all of the tourists going to Botswana.

It was my first visit to Botswana and my main purpose was safari. Yet, I am glad I did this Maun Tour, as I got to know more about the culture of Botswana and peoples everyday life in the small town of Maun. We visited various places in Maun. A basket weaver showed us the traditional way of basket weaving. We visited a local market, saw (street) art and had typical Botswana food for lunch. Besides we visited a car wash, which is kind of a meeting point for people living nearby. During the tour we had the chance to buy some nice souvenirs as well. When starting your safari from Maun, take some time for this tour before going to the bush. It's worth it!

The highlight of the Tour was definitely the interaction with the hosts. they were so knowledgable and enthusiastic about Botswana Traditions, Culture, Style and Food. The Tour as such was not only very informative but also covered a big variety of aspects and took us off the beaten tracks of 'Maun Town’

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.

Hi Carrie H,
Thank you for this beautiful review, the main aim behind this initiative is to get tourists to learn and connect more with local people, get the glimpse of our lesser known town.
