Joan Reardon –
In one word – fantastic. It actually exceeded my expectations. I loved almost every minute of it and the ones I didn’t love had nothing to do with anything we, you or the tour had any control over. The guides were great, we were picked up on time at all airports and hotels and the tour guide in Botswana in particular was amazing. Our guide Owen who was with us the whole time was diligent and worked very hard but was a bit serious, maybe through a lack of experience. Our group comprised of Wendy, myself, an Australian couple, a German and Danish lady who roomed together to save the single supplement and an Australian family of 5. Nothing was going to ruin this trip for me and it didn’t. I loved the various types of accommodation from tents beside a river with no electricity to the luxury of |Elephants Eye which was simply one of the most amazing places I have ever been. I know others have complained about a lot of driving but I don’t know how you would ever get to see so much without that. Even when we were not looking for animals we were seeing the villages and people and just the landscape so I was never bored. Thanks for all of your help .I would definitely recommend Jenman for someone looking for an affordable safari. We also really enjoyed Capetown and had 2 excellent tours there while staying at the Cape Milnor which was very nice. We had enough time on our own to shop and look around although we probably could have used another day there as there is so much to see and it took a long time to get there. Joan

To whom it may concern, I’m writing in about a trip to Botswana and Zimbabwe from September 10th – 19th.
I wanted to let the JENMAN team know how incredible our guide, Dexter, was. While the trip and the countries were amazing, Dexter’s knowledge of the land, people and animals was outstanding. Dexter is so patient and knowledgeable and it was an absolute pleasure to spend time with him. He made the whole experience amazing and I feel very lucky to have gotten him as our guide.
I would like to HIGHLY recommend him.
Thank you so much,
Jaime Diehl

Botswana Lodge Explorer – 10 days. These were 10 of the best days I have ever had where every day was a great day. Our tour started in Botswana and ended in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. This tour had a perfect mix of game drives, boat cruises and scenic walks and flights. Accommodation was excellent and varied from deluxe chalets and lodges to bush camp semi-permanent tents all with ensuites. The meals were great everywhere we stayed. I was particularly impressed with the meals provided at the Bedouin Bush Camp as they have limited facilities to work with. They managed to bake a lovely cake for my partners birthday and present it with a wonderful song and dance routine. I was surprised with the quality, variety and freshness of the food everywhere.
We had the most amazing tour guide Lucky Mafana. Everything ran very smoothly due to his careful organisation in the background. We really didn’t have to organize or worry about anything. He is very passionate about his country, culture and wildlife and it was wonderful to have him impart that knowledge on us. Both myself and my partner would happily go on any tour he was running. He was very happy, friendly and helpful and just a pleasure to be with. We were also fortunate to have Rati as our driver for the first few days and she was also lovely, very knowledgeable and great at avoiding potholes on the Botswana roads.
There were so many highlights on this tour. I’ll never forget first spotting elephants, giraffe, zebra, ostrich and steenbok on the side of the road heading to our first nights accommodation. Being so close to these amazing creatures and more continued throughout the tour. Sitting by the fire at the Elephants Eye and having over 45 elephants head towards us and the eco friendly pool for a drink, then having them at the bottom of our chalet stairs later that night. Seeing a cheetah mum early one morning with all her cubs out playing was a wonderful sight. Victoria Falls was spectacular both by foot and helicopter. So many wonderful memories and photos.
I would highly recommend Jenman African Safaris. I was so impressed and would happily do this tour over again. Loved it so much. Thanks Jenman for providing the perfect holiday and tour guide.
