The Best of Botswana Safari Review

Graham French from United Kingdom travelled with Discover Africa in February 2025

First time in Africa!

This was our first trip to Africa. We had already decided on Botswana but needed guidance as to the best camps to suit our preference for good bird spotting as well as seeing animals large & small, walking safaris, boat & mokoro excursions in the Okavango Delta. We also wanted to stay a good few days at each camp & really get the feel of the camp & the area, rather than rushing from one to another spending only 2 or 3 nights at each.

Vihann paid close attention to the things that interested us & put together an itinerary which perfectly suited our needs. This consisted of 5 nights each at 3 camps, Leroo La Tau, Nxamaseri Island & Camp Okavango. All 3 camps are run by Desert & Delta, & we will separately review the camps elsewhere. Highlights included large numbers of giraffe, elephant, zebra & the many different antelopes at Leroo La Tau; extraordinary birdlife at Nxamaseri (almost matched by the other 2 camps); close encounters with hippo, crocodile & (on no fewer than 3 different walks) lions at Camp Okavango.

Vihann arranged the camps & internal flights, & ensured everything ran smoothly. He also answered our numerous questions patiently. Desert & Delta combine comfort, good facilities, expert guiding & excellent food with something even more important – a genuinely friendly & joyful atmosphere that is more than simple “professional” friendliness”. The camps are also very efficiently run. Desert & Delta’s style suited our preference for camps where guests & staff mingle, & the atmosphere is sociable, something else which Vihann had also taken on board when putting together our trip.

We would very highly recommend Discover Africa!
