Africa Driven Arvostelua 

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!

Drive Botswana helped us to make our trip to Namibia/Botswana/Zimbabwe unforgettable. During the preparation the response was always extremely fast and precise. They made the planning of the trip very easy and uncomplicated, as they took care of all communication in Africa. The entire trip went perfectly smooth and without any issues. We were provided with very detailed information and maps to find our way around. The one time we had a crack in our windshield they were very supportive to find a solution for us. We highly recommend to book your trip with Drive Botswana to ensure a smooth and memorable trip.

We had done a self drive safari 5 years ago which we planned ourselves, which entailed a huge amount of work. This time we were so lucky to discover Drivebotswana who with a little consultation devised a superb 3 week self drive safari with a fully equipped Toyota Hilux starting in Johannesburg and ending in Kasane, Botswana, taking in Namibia from Fish River Canyon to Caprivi. Into Botswana to Okavango and Chobe. And wonderful places in between. All campsites and lodges pre-booked.
Worked perfectly, fantastic experience.

DriveBotswana understood from the start exactly what we wanted and put together a programme that was ideal for us. Communication was prompt, detailed and accurate. Instructions for the whole trip were very comprehensive and everything went to plan. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who wants to drive around Botswana and see this beautiful country and its wildlife. There is no doubt we would not have had as good a trip if we had planned it ourselves (as we usually do) and would certainly not have been so confident in our travels.

We had a wonderful time in Namibia. The travel agency's documentation was very clear, everything went smoothly and we enjoyed an unforgettable time in the many different lodges.

Our trip of 3 weeks self drive circling Namibia taking in all the major sights except the Caprivi Strait, was organised by Drive Botswana. We were provided with a fairly new 4x4 vehicle fully equipped for self sufficient camping. The whole adventure was organised well by Drive Botswana with all camp sites and lodges booked. It all went without a hitch. Driving distances are long but enjoyable soaking up the variety of scenery. Very good route directions were given and with good road signage navigation was easy. I warmly recommend Drive Botswana to you, they use their experience and knowledge to provide worry free arrangements for a trip that won’t disappoint.

What an adventure! We are still in awe of what we experienced and saw on our two week self-drive camping holiday organised by Drive Botswana. The itinerary devised by Andy gave us a fantastic taste of what Botswana has to offer. I would not hesitate to recommend Drive Botswana. Andy is very professional and personable. The itinerary planned for us felt personalised and everything went smoothly. Andy is knowledgeable about Botswana and gave excellent tips and recommendations. He was quick to reply to any queries we had. When our luggage unfortunately got left behind in the UK, he went out of his way to help reunite us with it! The vehicle, campsites and activities booked for us were all brilliant. We will be booking with Drive Botswana again!

Andy from Drive Botswana organiced our trip through Namibia in a 4 wheel drive combining camping with lodges. He did a fantastic job. He was very patient with all our changes and made good suggestions for our itinerary. We are looking forward to travel again with them probably this time in Botswana.

If you look for a really genuine experience in Botwana, check with Drive Botwana. In the summer of 2023 we did a selfdrive with Drive Botwana with our family. We enjoyed it very much. The staff was ever so helpful and we really had a once in a lifetime holiday!

Absolutely 10/10 from Andy. Communication, service and overall professionalism was out of this world. Couldn't ask for a better company.

Phil from Drive Botswana helped us plan a fantastic self-driving trip to Botswana, including car rental, accommodation and activities. We had a great mix of camping and lodges, and are extremely happy with how everything was planned and how well it all worked, from every booking to pick-up times for activities. The planning stage was very flexible, and Phil came up with great recommendations after having heard our thoughts. The response time from him was also excellent, no matter at what time I wrote him an email, I received a reply right away- impressive!
Initially, I was planning on organizing our trip myself, but I'm very happy we went with Drive Botswana, as they have so much knowledge, and good connections, and can organize an itinerary exactly according to your wishes. I can only recommend them!!

The itinerary that Phil put together for the 19-day trip through Botswana, starting in Johannesburg, was a just fantastic. Phil was extremely helpful throughout the whole process of planning and altering camps and including extras. The extra nights in the Central Kalahari, for example, were unforgettable as well as the helicopter flight over the Okavango Delta.
We also had just the right mixture of camping and a lodge every now and then. Especially during the two days at Sango Safari Camp in the Khwai region the expert guide made sure, that we saw all the wildlife that we Europeans would have easily missed during the self-drive stretches.
The directions and GPS coordinates as well as the detailed decsriptions helped enormously to get from A to B safely.
We gladly recommend Drive Botswana, because you can tell that their heart is in it and because we made incredible memories trusting their expertise.

We just returned from an absolutely amazing 16 day self drive trip to Botswana planned for us by Drive Botswana. Our expectations were exceeded on all fronts and we were totally wowed by the diversity and proximity of wildlife.

Drive Botswana did a wonderful job planning the trip for us, being always available for questions and providing support when needed. The information provided in advance of the trip were super helpful and the driving instructions on point. Accommodation was carefully selected and every stop on our itinerary offered something new and unique.

Simply a brilliant experience!

Everything went perfect! We planned our trip through Namibia and Botswana with Drive Botswana. We were able to ask all our questions and got a very detailed handbook in advance. In Namibia we did a self-drive tour and in Botswana we did a semi-participatory guided tour with Busways. Phil answered all of our questions very quickly and made us feel very comfortable. Drive Botswana booked all our accommodations in advance and they were all perfect. It was our first time in Africa and we really recommend booking it with Drive Botswana. We still cannot believe all the wildlife we were able to see, it was unbelievable and an amazing experience. Thank you!

This was an absolutely awesome experience! The whole trip exceeded our expectations and everything worked without any hitches. Drive Botswana's service was exceptional and we cannot recommend them highly enough.

We had a really amazing trip.
We loved selfdriving safari. Of course we liked the wildlife seeing, we were lucky to spot lions at Savuti and a leopard in Moremi's. Besides that we saw a lot of other wildlife elephants, giraffes, zebra's, hippo's, crocodiles and antelopes.
Some places where we stayed in the middle of the parks were really amazing, personally i liked Nxai Pan and Nogatsaa the most, because we were almost the only one there (except from a lot of elephants that crossed our campsite at only a few meters). . The rivercruise at Chobes river was also really nice with a lot of wildlife seeing.

The alternation of a bed and a warm shower in a lodge after a week of camping was nice.

We really appreciated how well everything was organized. We always got all the right information, when we had an appointment people were always there, and we where always expected at places where we arrived.

Everything you could wish from a travel agency and even more:
- organization of the perfect trip
- constant presence even remotely thanks to an efficient email exchange
- punctuality and accuracy in the answers
- courtesy and helpfulness of the staff not only in organizing the trip but also in answering any questions, doubts, insights
- precision in the details provided (maps and directions, necessary travel documents, suggestions for a trip with children, etc.)
- ability to respect the required spending budget.
If we will rearrange another trip to Africa or someone will ask us for suggestions, we would have no hesitation in repeating and/or recommending the magnificent experience with Drive Botswana!!!

Our 6x week safari through Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe, organised through Phil at Drive Botswana was superb. We were sent very comprehensive plans of routes with all contact details, GPS coordinates, details of road conditions, and when/where to stock up on provisions for days with no available facilities. Any minor issues were promptly dealt with. Vehicles hired through Bushlore who were equally professional and helpful. Superb trip through beautiful countries.

We organized together our 3-week itinerary in Botswana with Phil and during the preparations, Drive Botswana was really very responsive and proactive, especially in terms of accommodation.
Once there, no surprises! Everything went extremely well, all reservations were made and our adventure went off without a problem.
We experienced 3 wonderful weeks, full of adventure and nature with a very well "equipped" vehicle

We have been on a journey with DriveBotswana thrice and everytime it was wonderfull. Phil and Andy are very professional and both the planning part as the on the road support have been excellent everytime. Highly recommended!
