Matt just returned form a Namibia Botswana NBa21 and has this interesting blog about the The Caprivi Strip which is an interesting piece of geography. If you look on a map of Southern Africa, take a close look at the borders of Namibia. You’ll find a thin strip of land jutting out from the mainland, across Botswana, reaching all the way to Zimbabwe.
Annika one of our German guides returned from a Botswana Wildside BT14 camping safari and had an amazing experience in the National Parks of Botswana. I recently got back from a Botswana Wildiside camping tour, which includes five nights of wild camping in Moremi Game Reserve, Savuti and Chobe National Park.
I often get asked by clients wanting to book onto a Sunway Safaris trip 2 questions.
1) What the birding will be like on tour? Well it can be great depending on the time of the year they would like to travel. The tours that depart in October through to May are usually better for birding as the summer migrants have arrived. But in General the birding throughout the year is good
2) Do the guides know their birds? Yes most have the guides have a good general knowledge of the birds in the area you travel. Some of the guides specialize in birds so it really is luck of the draw as too which guide you get.

Johan one of longer serving guides has just got back from a Cape To Victoria Falls CVa21 and had an amazing group that just wanted to swim at every given chance. He has this to share. On my last tour we had some really good weather, and if you talk about good weather in Africa you talk about sunny blue skies...but during this time especially summer, the heat can really pick up during the hot hours of the day.
