An awesome family approached Encompass Africa to design an adventurous-spirited safari for a fun loving family who wanted time all together where they could disconnect from everything else. Here’s what they had to say about the experience upon return home:
“It’s hard to put into words what we felt, saw and heard in that magical African bush.. but it certainly ignited something in all of us.
We were incredibly lucky to see everything in Botswana (except the elusive cheetah) … our Guide Bee was a wealth of knowledge and we will never forget that smile.
Chobe we relished the aircon! The 100s of animals gathering along the river in the evening was magical…
Vic falls ticked all the adventure seeking boxes.. the kids were so brave doing the swing across the canyon which we had white water rafted the day before.. helicopter over the falls and relaxing in luxury.. pimms by the pool!
We were anxious about being in tents for inzila but it has left the final and lasting memory of Africa. Being so immersed in the bush took Doug right back to his childhood. The sounds of baboons at night barking like dogs, the rush to get in the car to seek out the disturbance, walking on foot and tracking leopards, two majestic male lions at sunset with their manes moving in the breeze, perched on a termite mound… and the sunsets. Don’t forget the lilac crested rollers (hey Doug.. he took 100s of photos of them).
People keep asking us how it was and it’s just impossible to actually describe it .. it’s really more of a feeling.
Thank you for making the whole trip run seamlessly… we were never left waiting or wondering where to go there was always someone waiting for us! To have organised this on our own would have been impossible.
