Heather and Steve enjoyed a special Botswana safari, with a particular highlight being that of the local choir singing around the campfire. Two of the Botswana safari camps delivered anniversary champagne.
Here is their feedback :
Hi, Brett. So sorry for the delay in responding; I am the primary correspondent & have been quite sick, having developed an adverse side effect from my malaria prophylaxsis. Luckily, it didn’t happen until after we returned!
Speaking of the trip, though, we have to say that you hit the nail on the head! Chundukwa Lodge & each of the safari camps (Linyanti, Footsteps & Meno a Kwena) had something special about them, the experiences at each far exceeded our expectations, &, without exception, the staff at each–both visible & behind the scenes–were phenomenal. Two of the places even had anniversary champagne awaiting our arrival (thank you!). And, lodge staff were always out front, awaiting our arrival (& even, at Linyanti & Footsteps, awaiting our return from an outing), usually with something refreshing or otherwise helpful in hand. Of course, I’m sure you know about Linyanti’s staff choir; quite memorable! I should also mention that we stopped at Shinde Lodge, shortly before our flight from Footsteps &, although we were not guests, the staff there was equally warm & hospitable.
The other thing that really struck us was the degree of organization for all of the transfers & meet-&-greets. Not only was every greeter, driver, pilot & guide right on time, they each had our name & knew where we were coming from & where we were headed. Given that we were only two of many visitors this network handles on a daily basis, it was truly impressive!
So, we have no constructive criticism for you, only glowing compliments & heartfelt thanks; it truly was a trip of a lifetime!
Thanks again,
Heather & Steve
