Overview

Safari Essence is a small DMC and we’ve been operating in Maun for 10 years now, though we have all been in the tourism industry for much longer, 20 - 25 years, mostly in Botswana. We really cater for a very wide range of clients, expectations and budgets: selling everything from adventure expeditions and trails / mobile safaris / boating safaris / walking & kayaking expeditions / cycling safaris / horseback safaris / budget, midrange & high-end lodge circuits. Botswana does not offer as much in terms of cultural and ethnographic safaris and experiences as other African countries, but we do arrange for some cultural excursions to Tsodilo Hills and exclusive Hunter – Gatherer Experiences living with the ancient realm of the San people . As a DMC we offer all basic DMC services including bookings, ground handling, M&G of your clients at Maun Airport, assisting with site inspections and regular social media posting.
