A Dream Come True
5/5

Emmelyn did a wonderful job helping us plan our dream trip to Botswana It was truly spectacular. Richard and I were so happy that you switched us to Crocodile Camp instead of the Cresta Maun. It was a great launching pad for our five days mobile camping with Nico, KG, Edna, Tandy and Toks. We were so well taken care of and fell in love with them all. We learned so much from Nico and loved every minute we spent with him. It was an en expected treat to get to spend some time with Fred, too. Chobe and Victoria falls were the perfect ending to a life-changing trip. There was some confusion in Victoria Falls about where we were staying and we appreciate the way Emmelyn resolved it with grace. Thanks to the entire team we will carry our memories of Botswana in our hearts for the rest of our lives. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Wonderfully accommodating; great experience that worked within my budget!
5/5

The entire experience was smooth from start to finish. The trip had everything I was looking for, and worked within the budget I provided. Transportation was convenient and flexible timing to work with my schedule. They even surprised me by making the service aware it was my birthday, and I got a special cake and song!!

Great safari tour
5/5

Savanna Safaris provided an excellent organization, the safari was great.
The driver has been the best safari tour guide we could have, he was able to look for many animals, explaining us everything about savana life and animals characters we found. He was also very patience with us answering to our many questions. Also the team used for the organization of the tented camp was nice and kind, always with a big smile on their face. We appreciate a lot also the effort that they provided and all the care that they had also considering the COVID situation and the different measures to be adopted.

Although it was a difficult time due to the pandemic, Emmelyn of Savanna Safari & Tours managed to organize our trip, preparing a very interesting itinerary that allowed us to visit Botswana and Zimbabwe. We had a very knowledgeable guide, Anthony, who we highly recommend. All went well.

Perfect Experience
5/5

We had a very pleasant stay on Botswana thanks to Emmlyn. We booked a fly in safari journey with different camps in Botswana. The whole journey was a dream and was very good organized. This was especially important during these difficult times. This was our second journey booked with Emmlyn and we can highly recommend her skills and profesionality.

“Fantastic Wildlife Experiences and Warm Hospitality”


We had a memorable trip overall, with several standout experiences, and a few areas that could be improved.

Our transfer from the airport to Insika Lodge was smooth and well‑organized. The hotel offered very good accommodation, although the dining experience didn’t quite meet expectations due to a few mix‑ups with food and drink orders. The Victoria Falls tour was wonderful.

The transfer vehicle to Botswana was unfortunately below standard. There was a noticeable exhaust smell inside the cabin, and the seats were in poor condition, which made the journey uncomfortable.

Our stay at Chobe Bush Lodge was excellent. The food and service were consistently very good, and the boat trip was a real highlight of our time there.

The bush camp, Kadizora Camp, was exceptional. The game drives and boat excursions were outstanding, the staff were warm and personable, and the food was truly wonderful. It was a first‑rate experience from start to finish. This experience we will not soon forget!

Reliable, accessible and well organised.
5/5

We only had one week in Botswana and Emmelyn made it an unforgettable trip. She organised everything perfectly and was available any time (before and during the trip) to answer our questions. We had a great time starting 2 days in Savuti in Elephant Lodge. We flew to the Delta (Moremi) from there and had 2 amazing days in Okuti. After those days a straight flight into the Kalahari where we finished our trip in Dinaka. All three places very different from another and would highly recommend to see the different landscapes and mammals.

Once again a big shout out to Emmelyn since she did a great job making this trip unforgettable!
