Best Safari experience ever.
Axe has been a wonderful safari guide and we feel blessed that we got the chance to be with him for three days. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!

The booking with Kalahari tours was straightforward from start to finish and excellent in every way.
Initially we booked a morning 3-hour Game Drive and an afternoon 3-hour sunset river cruise for our first day in Botswana. From the moment we booked everything was handled efficiently and professionally. Ou guide for both trips was OP. His knowledge and expertise were exemplary. We felt totally safe in his hands.
Everything went well from start to finish. Kalahari tours arrived about 10 minutes before the scheduled time to collect our group and we never felt rushed. I have taken part in many safaris in both the Kruger and in Pilanesberg close to Sun City in South Africa, but these trips in Chobe National Park were far better. We saw more wildlife and got much closer to all the animals without causing any disturbance. I cannot speak highly enough of Kalahari tours and our guide OP.
We enjoyed our first day so much we were delighted to be able to book an extended tours for the next day, which included and excellent locally made lunch, and a repeat of our two tours on our final day. Every trip was different and every trip offered close but safe encounters with the animals. Throughout our guide, OP, showed exceptional knowledge and could not have been more helpful.
We will be returning later in the year and I am certain we will be using Kalahari tours.

Fantastic 2 night 3 day Camping Safari to Chobe National Park
We bought our Tickets through Umkulu Tours in Soth Africa. The transfer from Victoria Falls was seemless. Kalahari Tours has a very slick and smooth organisation. One is taken from the border to a their cafe HQ for breakfast. One boards a boat for a three hour tour on the Chobe River. Then lunch at the cafe. Nearly all their customers for the day do this. After the tour one enters the safari vehicle (well-designed and comfortable) for entry into the park.
Our tour guide was Sam who I think headed the guides for Kalahari Tours. Sam and his cook/assistant at Boga campsite were extraordinary. The food was amazing prepared as it was in camp conditions over open fires. Sam was an incredible, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable guide, who went out of his way to provide a memorable experience. Sam even tracked animals leaning from the vehicle. He was very aware of the home range and potential location of predators, including lions and leopards.
The camping experience was excellent though slightly scary. One heard elephants, lions and hyenas during the night. Ideally on shouldn't leave ones tent at night. If you need to pee you do it behind the tent preferably with your partner in tow.

This is the agency you want to go with
The skills and knowledge of the driver is key to the experience of the Chobe NP. Tracking the animals, driving safely on the bumpy roads while explaining the animal behavior. Kalahari tours has the best drivers.
We had the best sightings, learned a lot of things. Enjoyed magnificent sunsets and scenery.
While viewing a leopard close by, a pride of 16 lions, elephant families…
The camp was basic and correct. In plain nature. Food was good.
Absolutely recommendable.

This tour was one of the best moments of my life
We spent three days in Chobe park, two nights in a bush camp and I must say it was just awesome. We watch elephants, lions, impalas, girafes, buffalos, crocodiles living their lives and it was amazing. The nights in the bush camp were... wow! To sleep hearing the roar of lions was wonderful. We knew that we couldn't go out of the tent but at the same time we felt perfectly safe. Because, the other good part of the experience was the efficiency and kindness of the guides. G, (or you spell Gee?), you were just the perfect guide, so attentive, kind, witty... We could feel your love and respect for the animals and nature. The moment of the lioness with the two cubs, unforgettable. Thank you, thank you for so many things. Say hello to the baboons from us, please!
What else? The food was very good, the facilities too. Everything was just perfect. It really worths the money you pay for it. I strongly recommend Kalahary Tours if you want have the experience of your life.

Simple to book, attentive to our needs, and great service.
We spent 3 days and 2 nights in Chobe. Both the river and land safaris were amazing. We didn't expect to see such a large number of animals. Additionally, we learned a lot about nature and wildlife from our guide, Mondo. Thanks to him, we were able to spot leopards on three separate occasions, thanks to his remarkable visual and tracking skills.

World Class Service for a once in a lifetime experience!
To celebrate the 2023 New Year my partner and I decided to book a Safari with Kalahari Tours in Chobe National Park, Botswana, and it was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, the tour operator made us feel like we were in the best hands. They were incredibly humble yet offered world-class service throughout the entire trip.
The safari itself was breathtaking. We saw everything from elephants to lions, and the guides were so knowledgeable, providing fascinating insights into the wildlife and the park's ecosystem. Each day felt like a new adventure, with stunning sunrise and sunset game drives, and the boat cruise along the Chobe River was truly magical. The hospitality and care shown by the entire team made this trip one to remember.
The accommodations were comfortable and well-situated to offer a unique stay within the park. Every detail was taken care of, from delicious meals to thoughtful touches that made the experience extra special.
I highly recommend this tour operator for anyone looking to explore Chobe National Park. Their dedication to creating an unforgettable experience really sets them apart. I hope to return one day—it’s a place that leaves you with memories for a lifetime!

3D2N camping safari - a wonderful experience to recommend!
We had a wonderful stay with Kalahari tours. The staff were super friendly and competent. Our guide Thiza, gave his best to find animals and we were rewarded with plenty of elephant, lion cubs, leopard…
The camp is located inside the park so we could enjoy the real bush and bush sounds at night.
The camp staff, Ponzo and Bennet were amazing. They cooked super well, even making bread in a bush oven, and made sure we had everything we need.
The Chobe park is beautiful, with amazing and various landscapes.
Definitely a must do if you are visiting Victoria falls.

You can truly see that he loves what he does and connects with the land and the animals
I was absolutely blown away by my experience at Chobe national park, not only was the landscape breathtaking and the animals were beyond incredible, but our guide Mr. T made this experience one I will never forget. You can see that this is not just a job for him, he truly loves what he does and connects with the land and the animals. He never failed to answer any questions we had and was more than happy to oblige to requests that we had. He took his time to teach us not just about the animals, but the land, the history and about any and all other organism in the park. He made sure to cater the trip around our interest to ensure that we had the most incredible, magical and memorable time.
Being a part of the camping experience was also a must! The food and accommodations were incredible! Whenever we came back to camp there was always food ready for us and a campfire already started. The entire time the team made us feel safe and well taken care of. I would highly highly recommend Kalahari to anyone I know!!
