Savanna Safari and Tours provided the best imaginable experience for a Safari in Botswana.

Every aspect of the experience with Emmelyn at Safari was perfect. She greatly assisted with the planning; responded directly and immediately to our stated priorities and adjusted them accordingly; selected four amazing camps with unbelievably great guides; planned for every conceivable detail, including game rides, short flights from camp to camp, timing, everything -- you name it and it went smoothly. I could not recommended Emmelyn and Savanna more highly -- I only wish she could plan every single trip I take in the future! My rating is a 20 out of 10!!!

Everything was perfect -- a tailored plan and perfect execution.

Emmelyn and Savanna Safari & Tours was recommended from friends who had worked with them, and what a great recommendation it was. The trip was tailored to our interests and timeframe, the pre-trip communication and organization was great and execution by all of the groups and individuals on the ground in Botswana & Zimbabwe was superb. The only surprises we had were of the best kind ... accommodations that exceeded our expectations, guides that were amazingly knowledgable and warm and lodge staff that treated us as family not just guests passing through. With three between lodge bush flights in the schedule we were a little concerned about delays or cancellations, the only one we experienced was due to a pair of determined warthogs who didn't want to relinquish the runway so the plane could land! We'd book another trip with Savanna Safaris & Tours in a heart beat

Safari in Botswana will always hold a special place in my heart.

It was a trip of the lifetime. Our tour operators, Fred and Emmelyn did a fantastic job organizing and planning the trip to every detail - from wildlife spottings, spotless lodging at the tented camp and all the delicious meals. We were well taken care of every step of the way and they are so thoughtful. We highly recommend the safari experience at a tented camp. We got to hear the wildlife every night it was just so peaceful and magical. Many thanks to our tour guide Active, he is friendly and patience, we had ample time to capture the majestic moments of the sunrise/sunset in Botswana, he show professionalism and experiences throughout our adventure, This experience, we’ll forever keep in our heart.
