We had an absolutely wonderful safari with Kalahari Breeze starting in Victoria falls and then through Botswana. They helped us plan our dream trip, organisation was excellent and everything went very smoothly. The guides were all excellent, friendly and knowlegeable. The highlight for me was the wild camping experience in the Okovango delta. The night sleeping under the stars in the Makgadikgadi salt plans was amazing but marred by some organisational issues on the part of the lodge. All the other lodge experiences were great, very comfortable with great food. Thank you Kalahari Breeze! Highly recommended!

The team at Kalahari Breeze Safaris helped us plan a superb itinerary with several rapid and responsive back-and-forth emails and we were very pleased with the result. Every arrangement went perfectly. The guides/drivers were wonderful friendly people who handed us over to local experts at various national parks and sites. The service at all the selected lodges or tenting camps was faultless. Of course the wildlife was the highlight and they didn’t disappoint. Each location has different highlights, and the recommendations of KBS turned out to be excellent.

Splendid way to see off limits big game animals, and experience local cultures first hand, served in comfort and nice style, in regions you would never otherwise gain such easy access to
