It's been some months now since we did the mobile camping in the Okavango Delta with Kalahari Breeze safari. Even months after our trip to Botswana, one of the first things I think about is the mobile camping experience (3 days and 2 nights Okavango Delta). What a great and extraordinary experience we had with Kalahari Breeze Safari!! We were just 2 people and we expected some other tourists to join us, but it seemed we were alone for the whole trip, together with 4/5 people (guides, cook, etc.) from the organisation. It was our first wild camping in Africa, so I was sometimes pretty scared, but the crew really did their best to put me at ease, even changing the program. Actually it's not so strange to be a bit afraid the first time :). The tents and sanitary were very clean, all people of thhe crew were amazing and knew a lot of the environment and the food was very good. I still don't understand how Chef (the cook) could manage to cook such dinners on a camp fire :). We did a mokoro boat trip, visited the local people (we love to explore the local cultures), did a bush walk and safari drives. I can't describe the feeling if you are there in the open wild, everything silent and you only hear the lions, hippo's, monkeys, .. close to you. If you are in Maun and you want an unforgettable safari experience, don't hesitate to book a trip with Kalahari Breeze Safari! Mario and Chris keep up the good work!

This company is absolutely wonderful and delivers exactly what they promise and some… our 8 days with them was truely amazing. Having travelled to over 100 countries we always try and find companies that are locally owned and employ local people.. and Kalahari Breeze does this to an amazing degree. This not only adds to the experiences but also ensues an authentic trip. There is also something good about supporting local communities. Botswana is an amazing country with too many highlights to list…. Our top 3 would be seeing Meerkats, sleeping on a salt pan and camping in the depths of the Okavango Delta. We can’t recommend this company enough/great communication, professional and very much value for money.

Wildcamping in the Okavango Delta is truly experiencing the wild. You are out early and back at sunset, but get to see so much both big and small. The staff are amazing and do a brilliant job of looking after you. The tent is basic but very comfortable and wild bathroom functional, but shower better than we thought it would be. If you really want to spend your Delta time immersed in the environment then this is the trip for you. If you want 5* luxury safari experience then probably not. Thank you Kalahari Breezes you are a company that can be totally trusted to provide a unique experience that will stay in our memories always.

(1) Land drive to the destination was comfortable (2) Mokoro ride was peaceful and spiritual (3) Walking safari was easy paced and we saw lots of animals. The guide Lenox ( Leonard ?) provided lots of information

We had a great day on the game drive. The park entrance is 99km from Maun on a mostly bumpy road which is not pleasant but the park is worth the effort. Our driver Kenny did a wonderful job and tried to get us the best animal views possible. I'd recommend Kalahari Breeze Safari's for this tour. We saw a good range of animals.

We enjoyed our Mokoro trip emensly, our driver Chanda was friendly and we had a great chat. Our Mokoro poler Baya was excellent. I'd recommend Kalahari Breeze Safaris for this trip. They were responsive and gave plenty of information to prepare us for the day. It was pretty warm on the return after lunch but we expected that. Have a hat and sunscreen on hand. They provided a nice lunch and plenty of water. Our walk was almost 5km over a couple of hours but each walk can be different. We saw zebra, wildebeest, elephants and hippos. Baya kept us at safe distances.

I have planned many trips before with various travel agents around the globe and I must say you are truly one of the best agency I have had the pleasure to interact with!! 😊

Maria and her team put together a bespoke programme for us as we used to live in Maun 30+years ago so wanted a bit of time in the town itself. In all we did Maun, the delta, Moremi and Chobe then onto Vic Falls. The speed of response and feedback from Maria was amazing...The team at Kalahari Breezes clearly know there stuff. It was a nice touch to meet them in person and learn how long they have been in Maun. There were lots of many different components to our trip and it all worked like clockwork. I could not recommend this company more highly! I love the way they show a preference to small community based local businesses and not just the big safari businesses because in this way the income stays local. 100% would book through them again and 100% believe that using a ground agent is the sensible thing to do even though we lived there before.

This trip with Kalahari Breeze Safaris could not have been better! The team and guide were amazing and they just thought of everything from the bigger things to the smaller details. We did a lot of gamedrives and a boat cruise in the Okavangodelta and we stayed 2 nights in the prepared camp in an excellent tent with lovely meals all over the day. We really recommend this tour with Kalahari Breeze Safaris!

A friend and I went on this tour in early July and had a fabulous experience! Although the tour could accommodate up to six people (because that's as many as the safari jeep could hold), we were the only ones - a private tour! The staff of six (driver, tour guide, chef, and two assistants) were exceptional; as was the poler who guided us through the water in a mokoro and pointed out elephants and other birds and animals as we passed. We had to wait while a herd of elephants crossed the water just ahead of us!

Our experience with Kalahari Breeze was extremely satisfying. We decided to book the "three river safari" tour for our honeymoon with some customizations. Maria, the owner, since the very first email was strictly focused on our needs by preparing a tailored package and providing us with continuous assistance, always being available and quick to respond to our doubts or on-going questions. The staff is highly qualified and always pleasant in explaining the ecosystem with specific focus on habits and characteristics of the wide range of animals we had the opportunity to see during the different safaris. Special mention to Thsidi, a thirty years old guide, very professional, friendly and devoted to his job. We highly reccomend to visit Botswana by booking with local agencies such as Kalahari Breeze in order to reach the best price to quality ratio.

Dear Maria, Chris and the Kalahari Breeze staff, Thank you very much for organizing such a memorable experience. Right from the beginning, you were very professional, with Maria responding promptly and patiently to our every inquiry (and there were many - I believe we exchanged over 40 emails!!). I have always wanted to visit the Okavango Delta. This was our 4th experience on safari so we were very particular with what we wanted and Kalahari Breeze were able to meet and exceed all our expectations. The safari itself was really exciting and well organized and the wildlife was prolific. The camps were clean, neat, secluded and comfortable and the food was amazing!! I can't believe we had fresh bread rolls and baked lasagna in the middle of the jungle!!! All the staff on safari were friendly, professional and well organized. Our guides were very knowledgeable. We felt safe at all times and were well taken care of. We had amazing wildlife sightings including a family of elephants crossing during our mokoro tour, a pack of wild dogs during our guided game walk and a leopard on an impala carcass during a game drive. As you know, this was a celebration of our 30th wedding anniversary, and the only thing that would have made this experience better was if our family and friends had been there to share it. Thanks again for everything. Botswana is one of the most unspoiled and unique places we have ever visited. We will definitely recommend Kalahari Breeze Tour Operators to anyone who wants to visit Botswana. I hope our paths cross again. Date of experience: July 2023

This was one of the most unique experiences I have ever been on! It's a company owned by Africans and your guides are all local and that's an added plus. My only suggestion is I wish it could have been longer!

The Okavanga Delta is simply incredible, where the local people and wildlife co-exist. On this tour, you to learn to live the wild animals, track them on foot, and through the channels on the Mokoro from local people. We have been on safaris before in Africa (not Botswana) and this one is extremely different and unique as you experience how locals live with the animals (not just see by car). Highlights and Recognition to share: -Master (not local names) grew up in a village in the delta and has life experiences learning to survive with with wildlife that I cannot even fathom. Brilliant at sharing his stories and knowledge. Master expertise is deep, there is nothing he doesn't know about the delta or animals and he will point out details that you would never learn or see without him. -Jerry was the assistant guide and so friendly and helpful for us! Bryan was our poler and he taught us the culture, how to pole and we had an awesome adventure! We LOVED our guides! -Seeing a cheetah (very close) stalk and kill an Impala, call for her cubs, bring five cubs to the kill and feed them. Incredible surreal circle of life moment. -Baby elephant and mom were literally right outside our tent when I was brushing my teeth. -Almost running into a hippo on the mokoro, retreating, and having to find other ways around the hippos. -We saw endless huge groups of animals by foot trek and game drive - Buffalo, Zebra, Impala, Wilderbeast, Giraffe, Elephant, Hippo, Impala, Warthog, and Ostrich. -We heard the hyena but did not see him, which is good because we were on foot :) -Dinner and Brunch at Camp! Delicious! Homemade bread, lasagna, salad, squash with corn, chicken sausage, eggs, etc. The food was incredible and the chef is super attentive. I believe Doctor was his name - not local name, but forgive me if not correct). - The tent is SUPER nice, I was expecting a small tent. This was a large, heavy duty, with two twin beds, warm blankets, and outdoor camping shower and bathroom. They gave us warm bottles to keep us warm also. -We had a weird schedule in between countries and the company worked with us to customize and maximize our time on the delta, was prompt and informative, and flexible with our needs. If you are a nature, culture and animal lover - I urge you to visit Botswana and highly recommend this company. We stayed in the airport hotel the night before in Maun. It is cute and clean and the breakfast was great. The company picked us up at 7:30a from the hotel and we started, and they dropped us off at the airport to end. Cheers and safe travels!

My wife and I and a friend of ours visited Botswana for about 6 days. We loved Botswana and our time there. We booked our entire trip with Kalahari Bree3 Safari. Maria was very helpful with adapting the tour to meet our interests and setting everything up ahead of time months in advance. We did a No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency Tour in Gaborone with Andy (very knowledgeable and friendly) and were in the capable hands of Chanda as a guide for much of the rest of our trip. We learned about the inhabitants and culture of Botswana. We hiked in the beautiful gorge of Goo Moremi, seeing baboons and learning about the history and natural beauty. We were awed at the beauty of the Khama Rhino Sanctuary, seeing loads of wildlife. We also experienced wildlife up close through a national park from a SUV. (Lots of bumpy sand roads to see these great animals, btw) We capped off our trip with an exhilarating Mokoro Boat trip and short hike in the Okovango Delta near Maun. We stayed in fantastic accommodations along the way, particularly Waterside Cottages, Maun Lodge and Goo Moremi Gorge Resort, which were all secured by KBS. It was a trip of a lifetime.
