What travellers are saying
- Departure419618945481 contributionI had the most incredible experience with Kalahari Breeze Safaris in the Okavango Delta. It was truly the highlight of my entire road trip. The serene beauty of the Delta, along with the guidance of Craig and our two local Mokoro guides, made for an unforgettable adventure. Visiting the village was a unique and enriching experience, allowing me to connect more deeply with the local culture and our guides. The genuine care shown for the animals, the environment and the relationship between nature and people throughout the tour made it even more special. I wholeheartedly recommend Kalahari Breeze Safaris to anyone looking for a memorable and authentic journey. Thank you for creating such lasting memories!Written 5 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Dianna W1 contributionIf you are seeking to be close to the animals, observe them from your camp chair, watch them roam through the campsite at night and early morning, then this is the safari for you. On this unforgettable 11 day journey we navigated the tranquil waters of the Okavango Delta, up early for daily safaris with our knowledgable guide O.T who prioritises your safety while enriching your adventure all the time incorporating everything the magical savannah delivers. The thrill of spotting native wildlife; lions, cheetahs, leopards, giraffe, impala, elephants, painted dogs, hyenas and many more all in the comfort of your vehicle, boat or mokoro. Our meals and sleep were interrupted by the call of the wild, so don't miss this opportunity to create lasting memories as you soak up and sweat the harsh beauty of Botswana, Lastly, a special thanks to our "safari Squad" OT, (guide), Ollie (cook), Election (driver & camp hand) and Freddie (apprentice camp hand). Everyday you rose with a smile, great food and company as we journeyed through Moremi, Kwai, Delta, and Chobe National Park. This was a safari of a lifetime. Highly recommend Walking Stick tours to anyone who is adventurous and truly awaits to capture the African calling. Do not hesitate and book now.Written 26 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Emma PLondon, UK4 contributionsWe had a wonderful trip in the Okavango with Mosu Safari Tours. We saw so many animals and birds and felt completely safe the entire time. Communication beforehand by Kemy was excellent. Our cook and camp hostess, Temptation, was an absolute gem and really went out of her way to make the experience as good as it could possibly be, even helping celebrate my sister's birthday in the most wonderfully memorable way. Our community guides were mostly friendly and were keen to make our experience as enjoyable as possible. The camp was very comfortable and the food was outstanding. I would absolutely recommend this company to anyone wanting a beautiful immersive delta experience.Written 24 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Melissa C17 contributionsThe Full-Day Mokoro Experience was the very first thing that we did in Botswana - and it was the perfect introduction to the country!
From the start, the Open Sands Safari team was very communicative. I got a WhatsApp message a few hours after I booked the tour, and I got another message the day before the tour with information about our guide and pickup time.
Our guide, Shaku, picked us up at our lodge at 6am on the day of our trip. He gave us nice warm ponchos to wear during the early morning drive, since it was quite windy in the back of the open-air truck. We drove about 2.5 hours from our lodge to the Mokoro Station via a dirt road that required 4WD. It felt very remote to me, but we passed several villages along the way, and eventually we crossed through the gate into the NG32 concession. Once we were in the concession, we saw abundant wildlife - elephants, giraffes, zebra, wildebeest, hippos, warthogs, and more. Shaku, who I believe said he had been a guide for over 15 years, stopped for each animal that we saw and taught us about the animals as we went along. Before we reached the Mokoro Station, we stopped in the shade and had a little breakfast of coffee, cereals, bananas, muffins, and more.
Once we reached the Mokoro Station, we met Waka, who would be our Mokoro poler and guide. We sat in the Mokoro while Waka stood and guided it in the shallow water. Waka grew up on a nearby island and has lived in the village near the Mokoro Station for most of his life. We asked Waka many questions about plants and animals, his life here in this village, what it was like to grow up here, conservation in Botswana, and more. We are so grateful for his openness to answering our many questions.
After a bit, Waka parked the Mokoro on an island, and we began a 90-minute bush walk. During the bush walk, Waka pointed out animal tracks on the ground, and we admired the wildlife (elephants, hippos, crocodiles, antelopes, etc) from a safe distance. The highlight of the day was when Waka noticed some tracks on the ground - then looked up in the tree and saw a leopard's lunch half-eaten! Waka was able to spot the leopard hiding in the bush watching us. He pointed it out to us, and then we moved along. I thought I would feel afraid in that moment, but I felt so safe and secure with Waka. (It seemed to be quite uncommon to come across a leopard, by the way!)
After the bush walk, we took the Mokoro to another island to eat our packed lunch. I am vegetarian, and thankfully they were able to accommodate with a vegetarian meal for me. After lunch, Waka guided the Mokoro back to the Mokoro Station, where we met Shaku and began the 2-hour drive back to Maun.
This was such an amazing start to our trip in Botswana, and our first safari ever! During our trip we also went on safari in Chobe National Park, but the Full-Day Mokoro Experience was such a different type of trip, I am glad that we did both. The Full-Day Mokoro Experience with Open Sands had many of the same animals, but it was also a much richer experience from the cultural perspective. We got to see glimpses of what life is like in villages in Botswana and speak to people who lived there, plus learn about and ride in the traditional Mokoro canoe. Our guides Shaku and Waka made us feel so welcome. And Shaku was so great at taking photos for us! This was a day I'll cherish for a long time!Written 28 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our guide Moses was a brilliant guide and ensured that we had a very positive experience taking home with us memories of a huge array of animals, previously only seen in books and zoos! His knowledge of animals, birds, trees and plant life was amazing!
Simon and the team looked after us really well despite the challenges they faced with punctures and supply trucks. We loved our tents and found the camp beds really comfortable and the al fresco showers and loo surprisingly easy. Having animals so close to our camp made this especially magical.
The river safari in Chobe was a great end to the trip, allowing us to see many of the animals a lot closer up and from a different perspective, and the transfer from Chobe to Victoria Falls went very smoothly.
If we were doing this again, we would add in one or two extra days so that we could build in more 2-night stays during the holiday (we did a 5-day trip). This would make it more relaxing allowing for an occasional afternoon siesta instead of consecutive days of long drives. That said, we thoroughly enjoyed what we did despite being very tired at the end!
A wonderful holiday and one that we will definitely recommend to others.
On the communication side, everything was great, but an indication of the potential travel times each day (in addition to the morning and evening jeep safaris) would have helped with our planning and to manage our expectations of time on the "road".Written 7 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Carol MChagrin Falls, OH7 contributionsOur vacation was amazing due to our wonderful guide and crew. Titi was so experienced, intelligent, witty, respectful, organized,thoughtful,and so kind. You can tell he loves his job even after 30+ years,his family, his employees, and his country. He is an expert tracker, and so knowledgeable about all the animals, birds , and plants. The tent accommodations were clean and comfortable. And better then most hotels. The food was some of the best I have ever had. Sam his chef and KP made everything exceptional. Our guide not only found the animals, but patiently and respectfully gave us the opportunity to really capture and appreciate the nature and beauty of Botswana. I am left with such good memories and was sad to leave our new friend. It was seriously the best vacation I have ever had! This is a company you can trust to put in so much effort and love in what they do to give you an amazing experience!Written 16 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ron and Lynne HMooloolaba, Australia147 contributionsA magical place to visit to see the African Wildlife up close and observe these beautiful animals in the wild. So many animals to see, Majestic Elephants, Lions, Giraffes, Zebras, Leopards, Wildebeest, Wild Dogs, Hippopotamus and so many birds. Our Guide Clifford was so aware of where all the animals were, and had been, that we were able to see so many every day. We were so well looked after by the camp staff, and the food was great. It was amazing to hear some of the animals at night from our tents, and we felt completely safe at all times. We would highly recommend Kalahari Breeze Safaris.

- Imre H1 contributionWe had an amazingly interesting tour with Walking Stick Safari in the Okavango delta. Unfortunately we could not get to Chief Island, since there was not enough water in the river, - but the guys helped us to find an equally satisfying experience. We had mokoro trips and many walking tours in the savannah where we could discover animal and bird life in a close way. Experience of having long walks and discover elephants, giraffes, zebras, buffalos, antilops and birds in their natural habitat without disturbing them was an unparallel experience. Obama, our guide proved to ba an excellend companion guide. During the 3 days we had our private cook Elecion, who was able to serve perfect and delicious lunches and dinners mad all on open fire. In the evenings we had great conversations with the guys and learned a lot about their life and preferences, just as well we told our life. We got good friends in the meantime.
Thank you for all! :-)Written 14 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Pete & LucyReading, UK11 contributionsWhat an amazing experience we had with Kalahari Breeze!
This was our first time in Botswana where we did the 8 day wild camping in Okavango and Moremi followed by two days to the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans. In the months leading up to the trip, we were in frequent communication with the lovely Maria and Chris who listened to our interest and guided us to our perfect tour.
The first 3 days were spent in the inner Okavango Delta where transport to the campsite was by Mokoro. Gliding through the long grass whilst spotting hippos in the distance really set the standard high! Our campsite was untouched tranquility with only the animals for company, so much so we even had a family of elephants visit us one afternoon which was a real highlight. The walking tours within Okavango were a great experience having previous only done game drives in previous trips. The food was excellent throughout all cooked on an open fire!
The game/scenery in Moremi was a great contrast to the Okavango. Once again our guide was incredibly knowledgable and the camp staff raced to ensure our camp was ready for arrival.
Sleeping under the stars in the Salt pans was definitely worth the trip and added to our experience in seeing the different aspects to Botswana.
With June being the coldest month (temps dropping to 2 degrees at night) Maria and Chris really thought about all the finishing touches including hot water bottles at night!
With Botswana being one of the few places where you can in fact “wild-camp”, this trip truly felt like an authentic experience. We would love to come back again.Written 23 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Within 30minutes of reaching the park we were 2.5 metres away from a leopard keeping an eye on the antelope. Drove for another 20 minutes to see a massive herd of Zebra drove around the corner to a pride of 4 lions looking well feed relaxing under a tree once again amazingly close. Then went in search of the painted wild dog low and behold we found a pack of this endangered species once again with a very good viewing point of them relaxing in the shade. All in one day is pretty amazing.Written 3 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Joe MCoeur d'Alene, ID6 contributionsFive-Star Review for Safari Addicts’ Okavango Delta Experience
Our one-day Okavango Delta tour with Safari Addicts was a memorable adventure, filled with local insights, close encounters with wildlife, and fantastic hospitality. Although they were a bit late for the pickup, Master and Phil, our guides, owned the delay, apologized sincerely, and even gifted us bracelets as a thoughtful gesture.
The safari vehicle was exceptionally comfortable, outfitted with cold water, blankets, and plenty of padding—perfect for a day out in the Delta. Master and Phil, who are brothers, brought a unique perspective as they both grew up in a village near the entrance of the Moremi Game Reserve. One of the highlights was getting to visit this village, where they shared stories about traditional life, showed us how locals get a cell signal, and even let us experience brushing our teeth with a “toothbrush tree.” It was these personal touches that truly set the experience apart.
Our day was packed with a variety of activities that included a game drive where we saw elephants, giraffes, antelope, hippos, and crocodiles. The guides’ knowledge and sharp eyesight made spotting wildlife an exciting part of the journey. The traditional canoe ride, with a “poller” guiding us through the water, was a standout experience, especially as we got to explore the unique flora along the way.
Lunch was pleasant and filling, set up under a shaded spot with animals in the background. While we might have preferred a bit more protein, the chicken, potatoes, and especially the spicy peri-peri sauce were satisfying.
While the 12-hour day was a bit lengthy for us, it was exactly as promised, and they continued to impress with their commitment to making the day worthwhile. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, authentic, and immersive way to experience the Delta, Safari Addicts is a great choice. This tour strikes a fine balance between the thrill of wildlife, cultural immersion, and the relaxed pace of a day with local guides. Highly recommended!Written 9 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

When we wanted to add on the white water rafting and Devil's pool at Victoria Falls they re-shuffled everything so the timing went perfectly. They advised us on the little things such as visa details and what to wear and bring, especially for Wild camping. The wild camping was tailored to what we want and they went above and beyond. The chef cooked delicious food and they kept the place spotless. We saw so many animals up close in the Delta and Chobe. The river kayaks with hippos nearby were great. Hearing nature sounds was so relaxing. The Falls guides were all so good. White water rafting was exhilarating and Devil's Pool a fantastic experience.Written 20 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- johan n13 contributionsI received excellent service. It was way beyond anything that I would have expected. I did go during the less touristy month of November, nevertheless I received great personal care and service. I went for game drive to the Moremi park and I also did the canoe/Mokoro activity. The manager, Lesego, is great. I can not say enough good things about her. I hope you enjoy your visit to Maun and Okavango Delta.Written 21 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- nickmylerNew London, CT8 contributionsSuch a great lodge and safari experience! Food was amazing, lodge was comfortable and friendly/helpful staff. Team was helpful, picked us up and dropped us back off to our hotel in Maun.
The game drive was amazing and we were lucky enough to see the big 5. Kay was our driver and he was brilliant! He was so passionate about the animals and very knowledgeable about all aspects.Written 2 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
