5.00Otto was an absolute delight! Sharing with us all that is great about Gaborone including Pinky on her working farm, the rocks drawn on by Sand people. As the weather was interchangeable, Otto switched so we had the best weather as we travelled out to the country. Then we were blessed with a husband and wife double act for the City Literary tour on the 2nd day. Would recommend this Tour to everyone who has only a few days to explore Gaborone. Only placed that was missed was Botswanacraft as it's closed on a Sunday. I took a trip there and to be honest, this is a quick stop-off unless you wish to eat lunch. But all in all, great tour.
PLEASE visit Botswana

5.00Honestly, from the bottom of my heart, PLEASE visit Botswana. It is a gem of peace, quiet, safety and friendliness. Long may it last that way. Walking around Gaborone feels like a big village, not too crowded and barely any traffic even at peak hours, and no one bothers you even late in the evening. Barely any cars on the road after midnight. Airport is small, not too busy and seamless security process. The locals of Botswana are up for a conversation if you want to have one. The tour was a great way to discover the area, especially since foreign tourism has not been hugely developed yet, so there is not a lot of public tourist awareness or infrastructure to guide you. Therefore, a self guided trip might be a bit more difficult in Botswana. Having this guide with me really helped me to explore the area and perhaps to see the side of Botswana that others don’t. This included the authentic villages, foods and activities that the locals engage in.

5.00I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and hosts (Otto & Andy). I also got the chance to meet some additional guests on the 2nd day. It felt like traveling with friends and family. One of the things I enjoyed was the open dialogue with both hosts and the opportunity to ask questions about any and everything. Otto was amazing. One of the activities was not available due to issues outside of her control but she was agile and was able to find 2 options for me based on my interests. I recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Gaborone. the experience is worth it!
Fully satisfied

5.00Thankful of having Otto to guide me for the two days while I’m in Gaborone. Otto was a genuine person with a positive mindset. We had a lot of meaningful exchanges in different disciplines and that had enriched my knowledge about Botswana and the region beyond.
Informative 2 day Gabarone experience

5.00Great experience both days, with experienced and friendly guides. Much more intimate in a comfortable sedan with just us and our guide, than a large tour group, in a bus. I would recommend paying just a bit more for that experience. Maybe less time in the village to leave more time for an unrushed lunch, before the park drive
The tour was very well conducted, with points, information and interesting and captivating stories.
