Amazing and magical! 🤩🤩We visited Botswana and the Okavango Delta some years ago! It is by far the best place for wildlife and nature in Africa! Like you, we had unforgettable experiences there! The elephant at the lodge and the buffalo herd at sunrise were stunning! 👍👍Thanks for sharing! 😊😊🐷
This brings back many fond memories of Botswana. We first visit Vumbura Plains when it opened. It was beyond anything anyone had ever experienced in the bush. Modern, different, fabulous. Love love love it. Your video of the ellie is sensational.
Even after watching you all these years, you simply still stun with your amazing adventures! I am still homebound and these are wonderful trips to watch. Thank you so much!😊
It’s so amazing to me that God create all of this. The beauty of the land, the animals, the sunrises and the sunsets, the blue skies and the clouds. Thank you God for what you and only you created. Thank you for another great video! Safe travels and God bless you and your family! Sin is the issue and Jesus Christ is the answer! 🙏 Amen!
I totally agree, God is the way, the light and the life!! Only He could make this beautiful planet 🌏, take care of it people!!! He gave us everything, cherish every day, and thank Him constantly!!,
I watched both videos straight through. Phenomenal!!! Fantastic!!! I'll watch it all again 🥰Thank you for so much beauty. 🙏❤️ Waiting for the next one 💞
Wow!!! Just stunning!! Words fail me, dear LTE!! Utterly and happily overwhelming ... you are on a whole different level, my friend! Loved absolutely 💯 every moment of this brilliant video!! What a gift!!!! Thank you sooooo much!! Bucket list for sure! 😊 I am, also, soooo happy and proud of your very richly deserved award!! Highest congratulations!! It's high time! All the best to you and yours, my friend! V opens door. Elephant says, ' oh, hello! Might you have a peanut?' V shakes his head 'no!' Elephant ... ' perhaps a cabbage?' V says, ' sorry, but we don't have one at the moment!'. Elephant looks disappointed and says, " Well, I'll just have a couple of leaves from this old tree, then, and be on my way ... Enjoy your stay!' V looks at you and says, ' What just happened??!' 😅 Very much looking forward to next week, dear LTE, but I didn't think this could be topped!! 😃
A magical way of spending a Sunday afternoon, watching and being absorbed into the beauty of the Botswana. I'm fortunate to have been to Chobe and no words can express the experience - which is the magic of your videos! Thanks for sharing. Will have to go to the Okavango Delta.
We’ve been to vumbura plains last year Oktober and loved it as well. However our absolute favorite within wilderness was definitely the Mombo Camp. The camp itself was absolutely amazing and the nature around it as well. And if you go to Mombo camp, definitely ask for the ranger named Doc. He was amazing. Furthermore we also loved kings pool
Wowwww 😍😍😍 what a nice Incredible Safari Experience in Wilderness In Africa my Dream travel destinations and To experience one of a Kind Very Beautiful Nature Thank u so much for your Wonderful Walk around and Travel Video Godbless from the Philippines ♥️🇵🇭🙂🙏❤♥️😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I just did my 50th birthday with the Masai people on a safari. It was the best experience in my life. I could have reached out and touched ever animal. Great video
Thank you for this fantastic and breathtaking video !!. I had the big fortune to visit the Okavango Delta in 1997 togehther with my brother an famili. We stayed in the Camp Okuti and made fantastic self driven gamedrives, an exprerience for a lifetime.I was very exited but i think wenn you are in bush you should also be a little afraid !!
🏃♀️ 🐘🦒🐆Scary emotion. Nature is executing, but I prefer to stay in the city. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video, I'm already satisfied without having to go to the jungle.
Wow…🦓🐘🐅🦒🦁🦊🦌great video.i spotted 4 of the Big 5.🎉👌. How much did you pay per night? Food included? Botswana 🇧🇼!!!! Tranquil…food looks 😋.can’t wait for the DumaTau upload, enjoy exploring Botswana.😄
That was incredible, to have the lions walk past so close would leave you wondering if you are their next prey, I would be slightly scared but so in awe of these amazing creatures, what time of the year did you go to vumbura? Looking forward to the next chapter!!
Reminded me of the Lemala Camps in Tanzania. Very lavish camps in the middle of the Serengeti. One of the days, I encountered the Mr & Mrs lions with cubs under the camp. Freaked me out but what an adrenaline rush!
We were planning to go to Namibia after watching your Namibia videos. But now, we are in two minds after watching your Botswana videos. Namibia or Botswana?? Hard to choose for our next big trip. Do you have a favourite? Thank you . Amazing videos.
Or you can combine both countries into one trip (it's very easy getting from Namibia to Botswana). Wilderness has lodges in both countries and can assist with the logistics. Namibia is more about (desert) landscapes while Botswana is more about wildlife.
@@luxurytravelexpert Yes we could. I think we are going to do our 2 weeks in Namibia with Wilderness, desert and Etosha. Then we will do Botswana, I think. 😀 Could you please let me know which month you went to Botswana? Thank you.
The best period to travel in Namibia and Botswana is the Southern African winter (June to September) when the weather is dry and sunny. If you are going to travel to Botswana after Namibia, you may as well skip Etosha National Park (since wildlife spotting in Botswana is superior to Namibia). You can always contact me by email for more information or advice.
Thank you doc . We have been thinking about going to okavango delta but didnt know which lodges to book. But this is great . We are from bay area cali and this is very helpful for us as we dont that much about okavango delta . We will be going there for 7 days . Do you have recommendation for another lodge ?
I highly recommend to combine a few lodges while traveling in Botswana (and stay 2 to 3 nights at each lodge). A great itinerary (same itinerary as mine) would be: Wilderness Jao, Wilderness Vumbura Plains and Wilderness DumaTau. Contact me by email if you need more information 😉
@@luxurytravelexpert Thank you doc. We as a family went to mauritius after watching your 4 seasons and one and only video and get a lot of help from your videos. Thank you doc for your very detailed videos.
DOC ❤ THE RUSTIC CHARM OF THE LODGE! NIGHT LIFE ON THE DECK ✅ PERFECT FOR A WILDERNESS RETREAT ✅ SEEING THE ANIMALS ROAM FREE ✅ WHILE RIDING INTO THE SUNSET 😊ANOTHER UNIQUE BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE 😊ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF THE EXCITEMENT & JOY 😊 ON YOUR SON'S FACE 😊
When I saw how low the car seats were to the ground around the lions. OH HELL NAW. I'll stay on this side of RUclips or on my deck with the elephants. Thank you for the experience.
Hello Traveler and his Trusty Executive Assistant. (Um) there is an elephant trying to swim in the plunge pool !! My My Mr. Leopard, what great big teeth you have, all the more to eat you with my dear !!! Mufasa, Scar, and Simba !! I thought this safari stop was great, but from the looks of it, the next chapter is going to blow our socks off !!! Our Trusty Sidekick is going to have to spend some writing this chapter of his memoirs !!!
Lions aren't interested in humans, otherwise these safari excursions in the wild wouldn't be happening. They know humans watch them, but they won't bother you unless you pose a threat.
Hi, I recently discovered your amazing channel. One question though: what is (in your opinion) the difference between luxury and ultra luxury (resorts/hotels)? many thanks!
You've often talked about being a nervous flyer, how do you handle these small planes that take you from resort to resort? Does filming still help enough?
I've looked for Scandinavian vids on your channel, but cant find them. I,m under the impression you might be Scandinavian. But anyway, could you find some beautiful spots for all of us in Scandinavia? 😊
What kind of plane is that please at the start. I'm just am aviation enthusiast from next door Zimbabwe Hope to do Namibia next year when my Range Rover P38 restoration is finished
What a beautiful lodge . It would be amazing to stay there if you had the money , but that exact same experience is available for a fraction of the cost . Namibia and South Africa are as beautiful and you can rent a car drive to etosha national park or drive down the caprivi strip and be surrounded by elephants on the road. Or go to any park in either country and Lions are right beside your vehicle ,which are easily seen by renting a car on your own . Many hotels are $100-200/night. Who cares where you sleep ….. don’t think it’s unattainable to see the EXACT SAME THING ON A BUDGET. I’ve done it 3 times for cheap and I’m from Canada ….. drove around for 6 weeks . Just not at a 5 star hotel/ tent experience. In fact , likely 2 nights there was what I spent in a month. If you haven’t been there , you probably think after seeing this video you could NEVER DO IT , definitely NOT TRUE . Botswana can also be seen on a budget .
I’m not sure what happened, but when I tried to watch this video today the captions weren’t available (even though they are for the videos before and after this) - I’m not sure if there was a weird glitch or what, but I wanted to mention it.
There are very few snakes in Botswana, in my experience after living there for 3 years. There are some venomous ones, but I've been told most are harmless.

You need to switch on the RUclips captions to watch the video with subtitles 😉
The problem is that I don’t even have the option to turn on the captions, whereas I do for your other videos…I’m not sure why 😕
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. It was a glitch indeed. The captions are back now 🙂
@@luxurytravelexpert Thanks so much! I appreciate you being so quick to check on this and respond! 😊
Didn't you have problems with the snakes ?
The rooms and lodges seem to be open and I would fear some snakes entering.
I didn't encounter any. There is nothing to worry about. Also, the suites are elevated.
There are very few snakes in Botswana, in my experience after living there for 3 years. There are some venomous ones, but I've been told most are harmless.
