True astonishing wildlife experience, everything we could dream of, and more.
5/5

A truly unique experience. We booked 3 nights in the Moremi Game Reserve. The journey began the evening before the scheduled departure with a meeting with our guide, David. We discussed the itinerary for the next day, and he explained the organization of the trip, providing useful advice for life in the bush. We immediately became friends with him.
The next morning at the agreed-upon time (7 am), he picked us up at the lodge in Maun with the fantastic Toyota Land Cruiser, which never let us down, and the safari began:
Day 1: A mokoro ride on the Boteti River and a transfer inside the Moremi Game Reserve (with camping at South Gate) with an afternoon game drive.
Days 2 and 3: Full-day game drives with breathtaking sightings and photographs at the level of National Geographic, if not better.
Day 4: The last morning game drive to bid farewell to the wonderful reserve and return to Maun.
The team consisted of:
* David, the guide, probably the best guide in Botswana, well-versed in all the park's fauna and flora, tireless in driving and providing explanations and stories, a deep connoisseur of the Moremi Game Reserve and all its trails. He speaks impeccable English, always making himself understood, and was super helpful and very friendly.
* Gladis, the young cook, a true talent in the kitchen. Whether it was dinners in the field or packed lunches, she always delighted us with typical Botswana dishes. After 12 hours in the savannah, it's important to eat well and plenty.
* Mt, assistant cook, and handyman, always with a smile on his face, kind, helpful, service-oriented, friendly, and always ready to make us laugh in the evenings after the game drives with his jokes.
* Moses, the assistant guide, David's right-hand man in the bush, always attentive to spotting any animal and also a great connoisseur of the savannah habitat.
And it's mal d’Afrique right away. We can't wait to go back, not only for the fantastic animals we saw (see the photos) but also for the wonderful people who accompanied and guided us in this unique experience. Thank you very much, and see you soon!!!

This was our first Safari we have taken and couldn't have been more pleased with the level of service from Mzansi!
- Pick up and drop off in Johannesburg was smooth and everything was on time
- The lodge we stayed at was amazing, the food was delicious and lots of variety...loved the desserts!
- The room was spacious and cleaned every day
- The staff were all extremely nice and attentive....couldn't have asked for a better staff
- The game drives were amazing...saw the big 5 and a wild dog!! Our guide was amazing at tracking all the animals!
Would definitely recommend this company to book any Safaris at Kruger!

5/5

The tour provided everything as promised, and a lot more. Communication was to the point and accurate. The accommodation and service received, were excellent. The safari tours, morning and afternoons, were very informative. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and went out of his way to teach us as much as possible and taking us as close as he could, to the animals

The biggest experience of my life
5/5

When I booked my safari, I looked at all the agency's reviews and felt confident completing the booking. Throughout the entire process, they were quick to respond and helpful. All accommodations, transfers, and tours went exactly as described. I consider it a 5-star experience with the best value for money among the available options.

5/5

We had an excellent agent in Katelynn. She answered our pre tour emails very promptly and professionally. We had an issue while we were at Kruger and I sent an email to Katelynn explaining what had happened. By the time we went to dinner a few hours later, she had contacted the resort and sorted the matter with them to my satisfaction. The transport to and from Kruger was very good, with a very short stop to use the facilities but not much more. The service station overlooked a watering hole where we saw rhinos and ostriches, definite bonus. As well as the Kruger tours, we also had a private tour of the Panorama route, the scenery was amazing and I would highly recommend taking this trip. Our second Kruger trip was the best experience, and we saw all the Big Five, we were delighted. Our room at Kruger Adventure Lodge could best be described as mediocre and could do with some attention. However, the staff, especially Nikiwe were so friendly and the food was of a reasonable standard. Overall a trip to remember and I can highly recommend The Mzansi Experience agency.

Since first contact until last day of my our I has a good attention and supoort.

The unique "problem" was the pickup at O.R. Tambo Airport that delayed a little more that expectative and we stayed wating without know whats happening. After the van arrived all the things stayed ok.
