We had a lovely time on the Botswana trip. Perfect.balance of relaxation, adventure and excitement. The animal viewings were outstanding. The activities such as canoeing, boating, and helicopter were well planned and executed and so much fun. The accommodations were lovely and made all the down time so relaxing. Whether you were relaxing by the river or getting a foot massage where available, all contributed to a perfect vacation. All the food was excellent. Freshly prepared. Lots of variety. Delicious.

Great trip and amazing experiences. Be prepared for the cold mornings and evenings on the drives (it can get baltic). Switch off and enjoy the sunsets / sunrises (not sure which was better). Botswana lived up to everything I wanted and expected. Just go for it.

Our tour with Admore was well organized, knowledgeable and willing to answer any question. We always felt safe. The food was amazing (often having three courses of real food), we ate very well and were never ill. The accommodations were all very good and comfortable (be prepared for canvas sided cabins that are not air or insect tight; we tent in Canada and were comfortable with this). Chobe Safari Lodge (Kasane) and Chobe river Gondwana (Namibia) accommodations food and activities were excellent - these were our favorite. (If you need solid walls and tight windows to feel comfortable sleeping - the Chobe Safari Lodge in Kasane is for you.) We saw lots of wildlife with knowledgeable guides and drivers and enjoyed the viewing from the accommodation's porches and lounges as well. The bathtub at Nata Lodge cabins was a treat. The pools were all refreshingly cool after game drives in hot sunny weather. We were lucky with the salt pans drives, we saw the flamingos (excellent guide PK) and the meerkats (thankful for the spotter). The game viewing at Leopard Lodge was not as good as elsewhere (we would skip this location in hindsight to stay longer elsewhere) but the food and company were excellent.
This tour was in the middle of our longer stay in Africa, our first time travelling to this continent (from Canada). It was late April and early May 2023. The Australians and New Zealanders in our group were all wonderful people.
We also took in some day tours with other providers before and after the Intrepid tour, embracing recommendations from our booking.com accommodations and enjoyed each one (a sunset boat ride on Chobe river, a day trip to Victoria Falls, a half day tour of Soweto and a day tour to Pilanesberg National Park where we had an awesome leopard viewing). Last minute plans were very doable which we enjoyed (it was not peak season and tourism is not fully recovered from pandemic).
Overall, it is an understatement to say we loved our vacation including this tour. We had so many amazing experiences. Thank you to all the local providers, our tour group leader Admore, the competent drivers, knowledgeable guides, and all the workers who made this vacation seamless and wonderful. You work and live in a fascinating place.

This was an unforgettable experience! I am a birder, and I never saw so many spectacular and exotic birds in such a short amount of time! Seeing all these elephants on the roadside, outside the parks, was exciting. Botswana opened a window to Africa for me. I will be back!
