A week ago, my wife and I returned from a private mobile safari with Kalahari skies to Botswana where we visited the Kalahari central game reserve, Moremi, Khwai, Savuti and Chobe. We had the most amazing 15 days thanks to Rex, our guide who, apart from the regular wildlife and spectacular preditors (lions, cheeta’s, leopards), also managed to spot the most amazing birds and other smaller wildlife and shared a lot of knowledge about all of it. In all those 15 days we never got bored.
When we came back from the gamedrives, Matheo (Pretty sure that is not the correct spelling, sorry about that) the chef and his righthand Chris were there to take care of us with snacks and drinks by the campfire. 15 days of lunches (wether on the road or in camp) and three course dinners in the evenings and never the same food, all done on woodfire. They even baked bread, our daily muffins to go and upside-down cakes. It was simply amazing.
All three of the guys were always one step ahead of our needs and always with a smile.
The campsites were amazing. We specially remember the camp in Moremi next to the hippo pool. While having dinner we could hear them leaving the water on the way to their feeding grounds. Kalahari Skies provided us with a much bigger tent than what we anticipated with an ensuite shower and toilet facility. We even had a little toilet in the tent so we wouldn’t have to leave the tent at night. We couldn’t have wished for more.
All the camps were in beautiful locations which made for a perfect bush experience.
All in all, we had a truly “next-level” holiday that we will never forget.
Thank you very much.

Just back home after this wonderful trip in Botswana and Victoria Falls. May was a very good month to go.
Thank you for this perfect organisation where everything went smoothly and on time, transfers (included Zimbabwe activities with NiceUp Travel), equipment, safari cars, game viewing and most of all, the nice people we met !
The accommodation was each time in a perfect location, well remote in order to appreciate the wild life and also the tent was very comfortable, this is luxury tent ! We loved the wonderful atmosphere around the fire place just after sunset safari to enjoy a drink and share the game view experience and talk. This was all a very good and exciting experience to us !
Also our super Chef, Mano, spoiled us with delicious food which surprised us as we expected more basic things and had no idea how to get such nice meals with bush kitchen, waoh !
I don't forget the warm freshly cooked bread (thank you Lorato) that was served, incredible !
And what to say about the game viewing, mother nature has put a lot on our way but also, you brought your long experience in spotting animals and birds and following the tracks and finding the good locations, thanks for sharing your deep knowledge over wild life habits and over the country. We did really appreciate. Not to forget the big laughs we had altogether all along the days, great atmosphere !
So thank you again to both of you and to the full team. We warmly recommend any wild nature lover to get to you to plan a trip with you.
Kindest regards,
Genevieve

Hi Eddy
In 2019 we had the pleasure to go on a Safari with Kalahari Skies and Newman. We had a wonderful time and a lot of memories remain. Newman was a fantastic guide with a lot of knowledge and we were very satisfied and grateful to get to know him.
We now plan another Safari in 2023. This time we would like to go to Zambia or Uganda. The question arose if Kalahari Skies also organizes Safaris in Zambia or Uganda? If yes, do you have any proposal for those countries?
Would it even be possible to book Newman for such a Safari? We would be 4 -
6 people and would like to travel 15 - 18 days.
If no, do you have any contacts for these countries?
Looking forward to hearing from you.

Zelda and I just spent 10 days on a safari deep in the remote Okavango Delta with Kalahari Skies.
We can tell you: Eddy and Mano the owners of the company really know their stuff.
What a combination; Eddy with his vast knowledge gathered over many years in the bush is a top Ranger and Mano, his wife and partner, is a top chef!
Both of them are real “Bush Babies” and dedicated to preserve nature no matter what.
They run an efficient outfit with friendly support staff for setting up the mobile camp in different remote locations.
We slept in spacious en-suite tents on comfortable beds, with side tables, lamps a wardrobe for your clothing and an
en-suite shower and toilet.
The game viewing was fantastic, Eddy knows where to find the good game and is an avid birder.
His deep knowledge of the bush and its inhabitants makes for great informative game drives.
Mano prepares delicious meals in her bush kitchen, on open fire and in her custom made bush oven.
An added bonus is that Covid with all its stress situations is not an issue in these remote locations.
So it is actually perfect to get into the bush right now unwind and re-load your body, mind and soul.
Thank you so much Eddy and Mano and the team for looking after us so well!!
We will be back in 2022!

Kerry and I wish to thank you and your staff, Marks, Easy, Gideon, Roni and Ito for a wonderful safari experience. Moreover teaming up with the McGuigan family was a delightful experience.
Regards Colin and Kerry |
I have been on safari the "fancy" way several times in South Africa, Botswana and Tanzania in the past and wanted our granddaughter to experience something more authentic. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Our campsites were outstanding, the food was remarkable. There was no detail left uncovered for our comfort and delight. I highly recommend a camping safari with Kalahari skies.

This trip was a caress for my soul and will remain etched in my memory forever.
Love from Graciela & Mariangel |

We had a 7 days safari with Kalahari skies. Not only did we see a lot of
game, but the organisation was excellent. Mano, the wife produced
delicious food. Eddi is extremely dedicated, Rainy and Max were
excellent. It was a great experience for people who had no experience of
the bush before. highly recommended
|
Three of us had a fabulous tour with Kalahari skies. Itinerary, vehicle,
tent lodging and guiding were all unbeatable. Absolutely recommended!!
|
Eddy was wonderful, tailored a trip for us and our Canadian family that was enjoyed by all ages.
Everything ran smoothly, the wildlife was amazing, the food was excellent and evenings around the fire under African skies will never be forgotten. |
