Highlights
- Elephant herd crossing the water – Chobe Natl Park, Botswana
- Feeling CLOSE to the animals on our Walking Safari – Mosi-oa-tunya, Zambia
- Finally getting the hang of mokoro driving – Okovango Delta, Botswana
- Camping out really made us feel like we were on an adventure!
- Lots of really cool people and animals accompanied us the whole time!
Lowlights
- Four whole days doing nothing but travel.
- Poor communication between our guide and Acacia Small Groups – this directly caused delays and low group morale.
- Getting lost on the way to the first night’s lodge — after 12 hours on the road
- Constant equipment issues. We constantly had issues with tent zippers breaking and other people had to sleep in fleece blankets one night before sleeping bags were found!
- Livingstone sales pitch video for overpriced activities. This sales pitch lasted for an hour and caused other members of the group to miss out on things – The Waterfront, Zambia
