点评:We had an excellent safari arranged by Safari Ventures. It was an 8 day Botswana adventure that took us to Chobe River (Chobe Game Lodge) and the Okavango Delta (Moremi Camp and Okavango Camp). Robin Neal of Safari Ventures did a fantastic job planning our itinerary.
Robin was quick to respond to all our questions at the time of booking and during the months leading up to the trip. It was our first time on a safari and traveling to Africa so she was able to provide us with recommendations on the weather, clothing as well as potential insects.
We arranged our own flights from the United States so that we could see Victoria Falls on our own before the safari and also to stay for a few days in Cape Town after the safari.
Robin made sure we were picked up at our hotel in Victoria Falls with a driver who was not one pleasant but interesting to talk to about life in Zimbabwe as he drove us to the Botswana Border where another driver took us to Chobe Game Lodge.
On the last day when we flew to Maun, to our surprise Robin had someone meet us at the Maun airport to help navigate the Botswana document departure requirements and get us to our Cape Town flight gate.
I would highly recommend Robin Neal and Safari Ventures. At each camp, the staff knew our itinerary so we didn’t have to deal with the worry and logistics of getting to our “safari” short hop plane rides between camps. Robin had pre-arranged everything so we didn’t have to think about any logistics; we could simply enjoy ourselves and not worry.
A couple weeks before our departure, my travel companion suffered an injury that made walking difficult. I contacted Robin and she arranged for us to have a room at each camp that would be close to the dining area and safari drive departures. It’s that kind of exemplary service that made Safari Ventures and Robin stand out truly delivering a trip of a lifetime for us.
翻译:我们参加了Safari Ventures安排的精彩的博茨瓦纳之旅。这是一次为期8天的探险之旅,我们游览了乔贝河(入住乔贝野生动物保护区)和奥卡万戈三角洲(入住莫雷米营地和奥卡万戈营地)。Safari Ventures的Robin Neal为我们精心策划了行程。
在预订时以及出发前的几个月里,Robin都能迅速回复我们的所有问题。这是我们第一次参加野生动物之旅,也是第一次去非洲旅行,所以她能够就天气、着装以及可能遇到的昆虫等问题为我们提供建议。
我们自行安排了从美国出发的航班,以便在开始野生动物之旅前先游览维多利亚瀑布,并在野生动物之旅结束后在开普敦停留几天。
Robin安排了一位司机到我们在维多利亚瀑布的酒店接我们。这位司机虽然不太友善,但和他聊起津巴布韦的生活却很有趣。他开车送我们到博茨瓦纳边境,在那里另一位司机接我们前往乔贝野生动物保护区。
在我们飞往马翁的最后一天,令我们惊喜的是,罗宾安排了人在马翁机场接我们,帮助我们办理博茨瓦纳的离境文件,并送我们到开普敦的登机口。
我强烈推荐罗宾·尼尔和Safari Ventures旅行社。每个营地的工作人员都了解我们的行程安排,所以我们无需操心如何前往各个营地之间短途的“safari”航班。罗宾事先安排好了一切,我们不必担心任何后勤问题,可以尽情享受旅程,无需操心。
出发前几周,我的旅伴受伤,行走困难。我联系了罗宾,她为我们安排了每个营地靠近餐厅和safari出发点的房间。正是这种卓越的服务,让Safari Ventures旅行社和罗宾脱颖而出,真正为我们打造了一次毕生难忘的旅行。
