Africa Driven Recenzje 

Really well organised itinerary covering all the areas of Botswana and Namibia we wanted to visit. The driving instructions were excellent and definitely required when going off road. Beautiful wildlife, amazing scenery and stunning lodges. I would recommend DriveBotswana every time.

Amazing experience! Everything worked great (the car, all tranfers, campsite and lodge reservation...everthing).
We have made a 9 days trip from Kasane to Maun. And before....we spent a night in Victoria Falls where we had a challenging white water rafting experince
I would suggest Drivebotswana to everyone who can enjoy an unforgettable self drive safari trip!

Phil from Drive Botswana did an excellent job communicating and coordinating with us before and during our trip, was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and accomodating prior to our trip with questions I had and/or changes I wanted to make.. The trip was wonderful!! Phil made all the campground and lodging arrangements for us, clued us in on what to expect at border crossing, estimated gasoline costs, border crossing fees and entry fees to parks, etc. Drive Botswana also provided nice detailed instructions on how to navigate from one location to another. Was really impressed with services provided by Drive Botswana. We spent 46 days and drove 6,000 miles (10,000 km) in South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Namibia (June 2 - July 17, 2024). Some rough roads but manageable. We saw lions (chasing Kudu and Impala), leopards, cheetah, wild dogs, bat eared fox, hyenas , white and black rhino, and much more. If planning a trip to southern Africa, I highly recommend working with Drive Botswana - they are very professional, helpful and knowledgeable.

Very easy to book. Drive Botswana suggested a fantastic itinerary and were very helpful in making some small changes we wanted. The trip was fabulous and all the arrangements spot on. The vehicle and supplier were top notch and all the accommodation lodges and camp sites we stayed in great. The pre-booked activities were awesome and all arrangements had been made perfectly. A fantastic trip to a wonderful country, and everything was well planned and explained by Drive Botswana and their agents.

Drive Botswana provided a great service, arranged a fantastic itinerary and the service providers used were all top notch. The interaction to derive the itinerary was very useful to understand the possibilities. The safari camping truck from Bushlore was very well equipped and in very good condition. The campsites, lodges and other accommodation were very varied, with each place offering something different, from the basic to the luxurious. The excursions provided interesting insights into the areas visited. The administration was seamless, payment straightforward and the guide and trip notes were excellent. We met one family on our trip who had used Drive Botswana several times and now we know why. Faultless.

We have spent 2 weeks in Namibia, everything organized by Drive Botswana.

Everything went smoothly: from car hire, transfers, accommodations and extra activities. Drive Botswana is highly professional.

Drive Botswana always answered on time and clearly to all of our questions. We received complete information package, road book,... .

Drive Botswana selects high quality partners (car rental, hotel/camping/lodge, ...) which is highly appreciated when you do not know the country and do not have experience of.

I definitely recommend Drive Botswana and will ask them to organize a new potential trip to Namibia or Botswana.

It is the second time we plan a trip to Africa with Drive Botswana. The first time was 8 years ago for our honeymoon and it was so great that we decided to ask their support for our trip to Namibia this summer. We confirm everything was excellent: the trip was well planned, reservations managed perfectly, driving instructions were really precise (you do not even need a GPS!), communication was always smooth and the app with the online itinerary is definitely a plus! We highly recommend Drive Botswana.

Back in Norway again after our 3rd trip organized by Drive Botswana - and a great adventure again. This time we had the whole family with us - 15 people ageing from 21 months too 66 years of age in 4 vehicles - exploring in Botswana and Zimbabwe. A lot of fantastic moments with animal viewing and nights around the campfire. Game drives in Nokanyana Camp, evening cruise from Kasane, Victoria Falls and our stay at Kapula in Hwange are the highlights of the trip.
As always well organized and a fantastic service in preperations of the trip.
Hope too be back again.

We have used Drive Botswana for 2 holidays and both have been outstanding experiences. Phil puts together a trip taking your preferences into consideration. Thorough research of the routes and the accommodations means you are usually sad to leave the place you are staying but looking forward to finding out what is next on the route. Routes and timings are accurate and this allows you to relax and enjoy the driving as much as the places you visit.

Phil organized a fantastic trip for us (5 adults 1 kid). He was very helpful and patient during the planning stage; we had so many questions and answered them all.
Our itinerary included Maun, Deception Valley Lodge, Boteti River Camp, Planet Baobab, Elephant Sands, Kasane (incl. a day trip to the Victoria Falls), Chobe, Ghoha Hills (Savuti) , and finally Nokanyana (Mababe).
We saw all the animals that we had hoped for, even a leopard and a pack of African Wild Dogs.
Thank you Phil for a wonderful experience.

Drive Botswana did a fantastic job in planning and arranging a 20 day trip through Makgadikgadi, Kalahari, Savuti Chobe and Vic Falls. Phil took our outline and worked up a great itinerary that really worked for us. With 13 lodges / campsites, it was a busy schedule which meant a lot of work for him, not easy to do and we had a great time. We much prefer self-drive in that we get a much better sense of the country we’re traveling through. The camping truck we picked up in Maun was really good, well equipped with a good fridge and freezer and all the gear, bedding, towels, cooker and storage. Didn’t need to add anything. The vehicle, a Toyota 2.4 was great, no problems dealing with deep sand. Highly recommend Drive Botswana. Very good after-sales service as well.

Really good advise on routes before booking. And also good bookings by finding nice and affordable camp sites and hotels on the way. The detailed driving directions were also essential. Can only recommend Drive Botswana.

To plan a self-driving route in Southern Africa, lots of knowledge and experience is needed, and Phil provided just that! It was great to have recommended/booked campsites and routes to make the every day drives as smooth as possible. Not only this, but even tips of where to see certain animals are provided!

Drive Botswana organized our trip really perfect. In a 16 days trip with a few transfers cross borders, things tend to go wrong pretty easily. BUT, on the contrary, every single item on the itinerary was spot on and the received trip description was more easy to follow then the GPS and/or the downloaded maps. From the first contact until our return back in Europe, Drive Botswana (Andy) was very helpful and a true asset for our trip.

I just finished a short trip with this company. It was amazing. They were so organized and knowledgable, it was great.
The campsites they booked were spectacular, but hard to get to. You really have to be confident about your driving ability when we are off road.
The only reccomendation I would make to them is to get a new GPS device. The hardware is outdated and i ended up not using it. When you get WIFI, download a map and and use the map offline.
The car had everything we needed and we even used the recovery kit as we got a flat tire.

I recently had the pleasure of using Drive Botswana for travel arrangements to Botswana and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, and I couldn't be happier with their services. From the outset, they were incredibly helpful, assisting with all phases of our travel planning. They suggested excellent accommodation options and provided viable alternatives that enhanced our travel experience.

One of the most impressive aspects of their service was the round-the-clock support. No matter the time or issue, they were there to assist us. This was particularly invaluable during our last trip when our flight was unexpectedly delayed. We contacted Drive Botswana at 10:30 PM in a pinch, and by 8 AM the next morning, they had already rescheduled our accommodations for the first couple of nights. Their ability to handle last-minute changes so efficiently was truly exceptional.

Drive Botswana goes above and beyond in making sure their clients' travel experiences are smooth and enjoyable. Their dedication and commitment to customer service are what set them apart. I wholeheartedly recommend Drive Botswana to anyone looking for a reliable and proactive travel agent. Their support is, quite literally, priceless.

Phil held our hand every step of the way in organising our trip to Botswana. Responsive, professional, helpful, caring, passionate. We literally cannot fault the service he and Drive Botswana provide and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them. Thanks for everything.

Highly recommend using this agency to help book your Botswana 4x4 journey! We spent two weeks camping at most of the national parks, it was an amazing experience! Andy will sort you out with a detailed travel plan with tips/tricks and what to do! We will do this again

Truly a trip of a lifetime! Phil at Drive Botswana was excellent at helping us plan the trip around the dates we had. We had a wedding in Namibia at the end of the trip so he curated a perfect itinerary for our 9 days in Namibia which ended with our friends wedding.

Phil also gave lots of options for a special night during our stay as a gift for my partner, I ended up choosing the dream cruiser at Onguma Lodge which was a truly unforgettable experience.

The directions were superb, although we had a GPS with the car it was still nice to reference the directions that Drive Botswana had provided to ensure that we were going on their recommended route rather than an unsuitable route.

This was our first safari experience and as a younger couple were slightly nervous about the trip prior to going but Phil made the whole trip so seamless.

Namibia is a beautiful country, with the friendliest people in - highly recommend anyone who is thinking about going to book through Drive Botswana!

10/10 would recommend booking your trip with Drive Botswana! They made the booking process so easy, provided great recommendations, and also provided very detailed information and driving instructions for our trip through Namibia and Botswana. It was the trip of a lifetime thanks to Drive Botswana. We are actually going to be booking a second trip through them for this year!! Thank you!
