Botswana

Thank you so very much for the bookings you made for us! Every camp site was beyond our expectations. We all had a wonderful experience and had some amazing sightings, including a mother hyena and her young pup. Also on our favourite list was the camp at Bains Baobabs. Once again a big thank you.

Claudia Lloyd

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for helping plan & book our Botswana trip. It was perfect for us. We really enjoyed getting to see so much of the country. The Botswanan people were lovely & helpful, we saw incredible amounts of game, & the different campsites were all unique & fantastic. We will totally recommend a Botswana trip to fellow Canadians, & will recommend using your service if they want help planning.

From our first contact Lea and Francois have been absolutely fantastic. They listened to the tour brief and planned our entire trip with a clear and professionally presented itinerary. Their rates are very reasonable, their communication is excellent and nothing is a problem for them. It’s a pleasure to do business with Ultimate Routes. We will use them for all our overland adventure planning.

It's about almost two weeks now that we returned to Germany after our epic trip through Botswana. Going solo through CKGR from South to North was an experience that changed our lives forever. “to be alone” was elevated to the next level. Everything went well and it was an experience we will definitely never forget. Thank you so much for supporting us with route planning and managing the bookings, I will recommend you whenever I can and hopefully come back to you for our next trip.

We had an absolutely wonderful trip, thank you to the Ultimate Routes team for making our Botswana dreams come true! Sightings were terrific, so many elephants and saw lions most days. Also saw Wild Dogs between Khwai and Mababe Gate. Had Elephants walk through most of our camp sites, Honey Badger, Hyenas as well. Also had lions come through at Nxai Pan, saw their tracks in the morning, none of us even knew they were there.

Matthew Smith

Your help for our bookings was great and you achieved the nearly impossible. Thank you so much again.

Hi Lea and Francois, we had an AMAZING trip and cannot thank you both enough for all the time and effort you put into setting it up. We made a couple minor changes as we were traveling, but for the most part the number of days at each place worked out well. Thank you again SOOOO much - it was such a spectacular trip!

Reisa and Kevin Latorra, Jim and Lisa Osse

Ten opsigte van ons trip. Alle besprekings was baie goed en almal het ons verwag by aankoms. Die voertuig bespreking was great. Voertuig was fantasties en yskas het gewerk. 'n Baie lekker trip want lank sal onthou word met alles wat goed volgens plan verloop. Baie dankie vir al julle insette met die trip.

Firstly we had an amazing trip and had fantastic experiences. Thank you so much for the hard work and organization in making our first self drive trip (and hopefully many more to come) so awesome.

Charles Thatcher

Ek en Niel wil net baie baie dankie sê vir al jul hulp, baie dankie vir jou spesifiek Francois, ons sou nooooit reggekom het op ons eie. As ons by ons bestemming aangekom het, het ek net my vouchers of kwitansies gewys, en alles was in orde. Selfs die koornidate kon ons net insit, en tracks4africa het ons by ons slaapplek gebring.

Lizelle Tolken

Ultimate Routes took our idea and took it beyond our expectations. Taking us off the main roads and experiencing places that we would have never considered visiting. Looking forward to our Caprivi and Botswana in 2021, also booked through Ultimate Routes.

Michael Alberts

Personally I absolutely loved the trip and cannot thank you and your team enough for planning this epic trip for us! You guys did a fantastic job planning for people you do not really know all that well and ensured a smooth and easy holiday for us. Having said all that, I will definitely do my next big trip through you again! I am really happy! So that you once again!

Coenraad Berrange

Hi Lea, Francois and the UR team Mike and I are just back from our 6 week trip to Nam, Zam, Mana Pools & Bots. It was epic, we made happy memories and your planning and help to make it so is much appreciated. Every check-in was easy and quick, every campsite a perfect fit for us, every route manageable and enjoyable and we loved every minute.

We had a wonderful trip to Botswana and thank you for the itinerary that you planned for us. All the accommodation selected for us was excellent, but Goo Moremi was great and Koro Lodge was exceptional.

Steve Tappin

Ek wil julle weereens bedank vir 'n wonderlike toer wat julle vir ons gereel het. Alles het korrek volgens plan verloop.

Jan Kotze

From the moment we contacted Ultimate Routes, we were impressed by the professionalism and efficiency of your team. Throughout the entire planning process, you were attentive to our needs and preferences. During our trip, we were amazed by how seamlessly everything flowed. Not once did we encounter any issues with paperwork or logistics—all thanks to the organization of your team. It truly made our experience stress-free and enjoyable.

Cobus Rautenbach

I recently made a booking with Ultimate Routes with specific requirements for my tour and they made it all happen. From keeping off main routes and just travelling on back/gravel roads & mountain passes, through small towns – wow they got me smiling. Their service is great and they reply quickly to emails. Well done guys. I’m looking forward to what you come up with next on my upcoming 2019 tours.

Dylan Veneman

I was skeptical about using your services as I have planned trips myself for many years and it is very frustrating and time-consuming. I found Ultimate routes on a Tracks 4 Africa newsletter and followed you on Facebook. It was not long before I called and asked how much this wonderful service costs and was shocked to hear how cheap it was. To be quite honest, it sounded too good to be true. Then I asked you to plan this Botswana trip and boy, was I impressed!

Russel Tarr

Ons het dit baie geniet. Als het 100% smooth verloop, geen issues gehad met "in book" nie. Ek is so bly ons deur julle geboek het.

Yolande Kruger

Ek het die beste diens van Lea en Francois gekry! Besprekings in lyn met my planne vir ʼn toer deur Botswana se Kalahari en selfs plek gekry vir ons by Rooiputs. Briljant! Daar was nie enigsins ‘n sloerdery nie, alles net flink en dadelik gedoen. Dankie julle twee!

Pieter Rootman

South Africa

We had a very nice trip and will certainly ask you to arrange our trips in the future. Thank you for everything and for being able to arrange our very last minute holiday.

Ryan Vivier

A big thank you for all the organising of our recent trip to Moremi and Kwai, it is as always amazing.
