Luggage

The Classic Botswana Safari includes two light aircraft transfers. The maximum luggage limit on these flights, and therefore the safari, is 20kg per person including reasonable camera equipment. Your luggage must be packed in small squashable bags. This is seldom a problem as light, casual clothing is all that is needed except in the winter months (June to August) when we recommend you pack at least one warm jacket and a thick jumper or fleece.

Costs

This safari to Botswana includes, transport in custom-built 4WD safari vehicles and transfers in a light aircraft; accommodation in a great safari camp and a rustic yet comfortable mobile camp; camping equipment; private campsite fees; the services of a knowledgeable guide and usually three meals a day.

Drinks

During your safari, drinks such as mineral water, soft drinks, gin, beer and wine are included. If you have a preferred tipple that is not included in this list we can take requests and for a nominal fee, ensure that there is plenty to last the trip.

Torches

The Santantadibe mobile camp will be lit by paraffin or oil lamps each evening. An LED lantern will be supplied in each tent. We strongly recommend that you also take with you a good head torch which will let you read a book or catch up with your safari journal at night. We suggest you spend a little money on this essential safari item to avoid a lot of potential frustration in the bush.

Laundry

A complimentary laundry service is included at Kwara Camp.

A limited laundry service is offered during full days at your private Santantadibe mobile camp. Clothes will be hand washed only and the service will depend on the availability of water and on the weather. If you would like items laundered please mention this to your guide or one of the camp team. For cultural reasons we ask you not to include smalls in your laundry. Water and washing powder can be made available to you should you wish to wash these yourself.

Special requests

If you have any dietary requirements, special requests medical conditions that you would like us to be aware of we ask that you tell us well in advance. A good way to do this is to note these in the 'Special Requests' box made available on the booking form.

Whilst we cannot always guarantee a special request the safari operators and lodges will always try hard to help.
