We are lucky to be heading out to Moremi/Savuti/Chobe from Ireland next week with our two teenagers. Really loved watching all your videos; fabulous photography and great fun too. So excited to experience wildlife in the wilderness ourselves.
Such a pleasure to watch episodes, and follow your channel. Very important advises to have a pleasant time into the bush. Thanks for sharing. I will be there this coming end of November after visiting Moremi South Bridge and 3rd Bridge as well. Thank you 🙏
We are in Khwai for 9days from next week 22nd. Nice to refresh the memories of the region.. hope to find a leopard, any leopard, and spend a few hours(or more) with them.
Awesome video! So happy to have found your channel, as we'll be in Botswana in about a month. Cannot wait to experience this amazing part of the world!!
@@TheSafariExpert Campsite MG12 (22-9-2022 to 26-9-2022). There was a dead elephant in the river, which a male lion was feeding on. We saw the mother and her cub daily, and on our last day, we saw the male leopard. Villiers you are truly blessed to visit the area so regularly. Can't wait to see your next 2 series. Take care.
Ace video, Villiers. Thanks. We visited Botwsana - including Khwai - on a private safari in 2017. Rather expensive but fantastic. (I know the model used in Botswana is low envrionmental impact, high cost tourism). Hoping to get back to Africa from Australia again one day soon.
Amazing video as always! Missed those lions around the same time as you (unless these were the pride by the khwai airstrip - which was a great sighting)
@@TheSafariExpert we did thanks. Camping and Mokoro-ing up the Delta was wild and exclusive, and Chobe was incredibly game rich given the time of year.. lions lions and more lions and of course thousands of elephants around every corner!
Just back from northern Botswana, and what an experience ! We didn’t pass through Khwai, so I guess on our next trip to Botswana we will need to spend some time. Drive Botswana are class ! We used them to plan an 18-day self drive across Namibia. Highly recommended. Looking forward to the next video Villiers. Keep them coming 😃
Been looking forward to this. You had a great campsite compared to us. We saw your leopard too although we had a bunch of badly behaved safari vehicles pushing down trees and bushes to try get close to her also. She came out the bush a meter in front of us and lay down next to us and of course I had the wrong lens on etc but I got it all be it badly 😅 Another great episode thank you for sharing
@@TheSafariExpert my pleasure mate. Hope it helped. Your footage is amazing. I need to come visit you soon for some lessons. Right now I have all the gear but no idea 😂 Ps love the kettle, same as mine. 😂
just seen the video and excellent - Question: we are driving to Khwai campsite in May and i am trying to find on google maps the dead tree forest. you were at Magatho campsite so across the river. any chance you can give me the co ordinates? thanks
What if those big animals ambush an attack to that tent , is it not safer to sleep In the car,with no mosquitoes and other insects ? I mean still some big animals like the Rhinos elephants and even hippos since your camp was just near the river Dont even mention those cats, you don't even see them attacking you ,

@@TheSafariExpert im wanting to go to khwai, moremi and chobe next year in june would you recommend this as a good time to go?
@@mhjb13, that would be a great time! Just make sure you book ASAP, because that is high season. Drive Botswana can help you with bookings 👍🏻

Thanks for sharing this awesome trip to Magotho/Khwai. We must have just missed you, as we were there in September 2002.
You must mean 2022 😉 Which stand did you can on, Quentin?

Epic stuff Villiers
Thank you 🙏🏻

Epic video dude!!
Dankie seun!
Amazing video as always! Missed those lions around the same time as you (unless these were the pride by the khwai airstrip - which was a great sighting)
No, it wasn’t the same pride, Radheesh. We saw this lot close to the Chobe cutline. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip!? 🍀
@@TheSafariExpert we did thanks. Camping and Mokoro-ing up the Delta was wild and exclusive, and Chobe was incredibly game rich given the time of year.. lions lions and more lions and of course thousands of elephants around every corner!
Wow beautiful bro..I love it 😍♥️
Thanks so much, Ajay!
Awesome. Just to help a brother out, how many times did you engage the 4 wheel drive mode from Maun to Magotho if it was needed or not?
Just back from northern Botswana, and what an experience ! We didn’t pass through Khwai, so I guess on our next trip to Botswana we will need to spend some time.
Drive Botswana are class ! We used them to plan an 18-day self drive across Namibia. Highly recommended.
Looking forward to the next video Villiers. Keep them coming 😃
You really have to visit Khwai, Patrick 🤩 I’m glad you also had a great trip to northern Botswana and that you already use Drive Botswana 🥳
Love you're videos
Thanks CoCo 🙏🏻
What are those pink blooming trees? They are beautiful!
Kalahari Apple-leaf trees
@@TheSafariExpert Thank you for your prompt response. They are beautiful.

Thanks Bruce. And thanks for the info before our trip 🙏🏻

Ps love the kettle, same as mine. 😂
@@OverlandingwithBruce, let me know when you can make it down to Hoedies 😁👌🏻🎥
@@TheSafariExpert will do. 👍
Wow what a fantastic episode and Leopard on day one!!! amazing!! Well done!
Thanks a mil! Always lekker to hear that from someone that knows and loves Khwai as much as I do 😊
Incredible, I'm just back from Namibia and you've got me thinking about Botswana for next year. Did you buy the permits in Maun?
No, they were all arranged half a year before the trip. Drive Botswana can oranise them for you 👍🏻
@@TheSafariExpert Many thanks for the swift reply. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
just seen the video and excellent - Question: we are driving to Khwai campsite in May and i am trying to find on google maps the dead tree forest. you were at Magatho campsite so across the river. any chance you can give me the co ordinates? thanks
What would you say are the differences between a self drive in moremi vs Khwai?
I think it would be similar, but the area around Magotho in Khwai looks a little different with all those camel-thorn trees.
What if those big animals ambush an attack to that tent , is it not safer to sleep In the car,with no mosquitoes and other insects ?
I mean still some big animals like the Rhinos elephants and even hippos since your camp was just near the river
Dont even mention those cats, you don't even see them attacking you ,
