Our tour of Botswana is a lovely combination of different types of adventure and tourism, we take in the tourist sights of Chobe river cruises and the mighty Victoria falls on organised tours, a great start to the time with Lee, Avril and Duncan, then we head off into the wilds. The challenge of the crossing to Savuti is the deep soft sand on the ridge road, we are back in the land of low tyre pressures, low gear and steady momentum which is a baptism of fire for Duncan and the girls. At the end of a long day we relax in the surprising luxury of an infinity pool overlooking a water hole. Next day the adventure continues with a night camped on the banks of Khwai Hippo Pools, up close and personal with elephants and Hippos in an unfenced camp, we park the cars at a protective angle and have a decent camp fire on the third side for safety, finally we drive for a full day through Moremi reserve and encounter many animals and some wobbly bridges to cross. A great start to our three weeks together.
