Dear Petru,
I have been thinking to write a review of my trip since I got back home. Due to my hectic workload, couldn’t do it.
South Africa - The pick-up and city tour both were very good. I know I was little upset with the first tour guy from Wilro. But the gentleman turned out to be a good tour guide.
Our stay at Michael Angelo was wonderful. The room was exotic. The breakfast was out of this world!! The Nelson Mandela Square is a very safe place to wonder around. We had a nice relaxing dinner at the Piccolo Monde restaurant.
The Victoria Falls Safari Lodge was good. The room was okay with a nice view. The food was just okay at the restaurant. Nothing exotic. The restaurant staff, Dee was kind enough to pack our breakfast for the road transfer because we were running real late that day after coming back from Lions Walk.
I’m glad that we chose to stay at the Chobe Game lodge. It was an experience! The rooms were very comfi. We got 402/403 room as an upgrade. It was super comfi.
The food was excellent! They had a boma dinner party. The safari game drives were fine as well. We liked the boat rides best. It was serenely peaceful, watching the elephants with their babies cross the Chobe River.
Camp Xakanaxa was a different kind of experience! The ride on that small plane was so exciting!! Landing in a strip airport was an awesome thing to do. The women at the camp are very friendly! The standalone cottages are cute!. Dinner was exceptionally good. In November, the weather was perfect for us. The woods were looking little dry. But that was an advantage (I thought) for the rangers to find the animals easily. Harrison was our ranger. A real good one!!
We enjoyed the overall trip very much. Thanks for your work to take care of our packed trip itinerary for a short period of time. Job well done!!
Just for your information, I would like to let you know that my credit card has been compromised in SA. I came to know about it last week when I got my credit card statement. The credit card company is investigating the fraudulent activities. Just caution your customers.
Thanks again
