What Happens Next

From wishlist to wilderness

A clear, personal process — every step guided by people who know and love Botswana.

01
Within 24 hours

We Read Every Word

Your wishlist, travel style, and dates are reviewed by a member of our team — not a bot. We take time to understand what you're actually looking for before we respond.

02
Day 1–2

A Personal Response

You'll receive a tailored reply from someone who knows Botswana intimately. We may ask a few questions to refine the itinerary before we build it.

03
Day 2–5

Your Itinerary, Built for You

We craft a bespoke itinerary — lodge combinations, activity suggestions, travel logistics — based entirely on what you've shared. No templates. No packages.

04
Ongoing

Refinement & Questions

We go back and forth until every detail feels right. Dates, room types, dietary needs, special occasions — nothing is finalised until you're completely happy.

05
When you're ready

Confirmation & Deposit

Once you're ready to proceed, we issue a formal booking confirmation and collect a deposit to secure your dates. Full payment is due closer to travel.

06
Your departure day

Your Safari Begins

Detailed pre-departure notes, packing lists, and a dedicated contact number are provided before you fly. We're here from first enquiry to final sunset.
