Kalahari Skies

Visited: Sep. 2024 Reviewed: Oct. 18, 2024 Submitted in:

We had a fantastic trip with Kalahari Skies in Botswana.
Our guide, Gideon, was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of the whole area, beside he is a wonderful, genuinely nice guy whom we could discuss any topic during our conversations over our trips and meals. The stuff was excellent, we loved Katel’s broad smile welcoming us back to the camp and Drim’s amazing cooking. We had a great time in spite of the extreme heat (in September) and have great memories having seen so much wildlife: lions just couple of feet away from the jeep, elephants and buffalos crossing the river, leopard eating an impala on a tree and many other amazing sights.
We definitely would recommend Kalahari Skies to anybody who wants to have an authentic safari experience.
Thank you Gideon, Katel, Drim, Eddie and Lyn,

The best safari ever!!!
With my family we did 10 day safari in tented camp with Eddy and his team. Difficult to express in words the amazing, unique feelings we have experienced. Everything was perfectly organized and managed, with professionalism and much passion. Eddy is an excellent guide, makes you live the savanna as nobody else can do. He knows everything about wildlife and share his knowledge as well as interesting anecdotes while driving during the day and chatting around the fire in the evening. His wife Manu and their assistants prepared for us amazingly delicious food every day, always attentive to our taste and needs. The experience of the tended camp allow to really feel the beauty of the nature....makes you feeling part of it.
Just need to be conscious and respectful of its rules. Next safari? Certainly with Eddy and in tented camp!

A mobile safari with a fantastic guide and the best cook in the Bush.
Landscapes worthy of the birth of the world, the encounter with wildlife, here is what I lived during ten days.
An unforgettable experience that allowed me to discover the Kalahari desert with its extraordinary fauna and flora (cheetahs, oryx, giraffes, zebras, steenbok... and a multitude of birds...), travel along the banks of the Boteti River to observe hundreds of elephants and two hunting lionesses and enjoy the vastness of the Nxai Pan with its flights of flamingos, white elephants and giraffes.
The pleasure of returning to camp each evening to spend a beautiful moment of sharing with the guide around the fire observing the Milky Way and the stars and being awakened in the middle of the night by the roar of the lion.
Thanks Eddy, Guidéon and Methéo. Everything was perfect, the equipment (tent, car, food) and your services.

Bush safari with Eddy and Mannou,

If you seek a bush safari in Botswana, with a guide who is so close to nature it looks like he is one with the animals, with modern and reliable cars and equipment, with Mannou, his wife, taking care of the logistics and present you 3 times a day with an excellent meal, then Kalahari Skies by Eddy Everaerdt is the place to be. There are not enough words to describe how they treat you in a warm and friendly way and on the other side Eddy is a walking textbook with suberp knowledge of all the wildlife and birds in the region. Except for the rhino, we saw practically all the wildlife you can imagine, with Eddy on a restless search and amazing talent and nose to find all the animals! We enjoyed every minute, and will sure be back!

This was not the first time we went with Kalahari Skies deep into the pristine bush of the Delta and the Savute Area. It will most certainly not be our last time either..
Besides the extensive knowledge of the staff, they are also friendly, helpful and they seem to have a lot of fun and commitment working for the company. The equipment is of high standard, pretty new, they offer comfortable beds and bedding in spacious en-suite tents with even a clothing cupboard so that you do not have to live out of your duffel bag. The food is outstanding and the game drive vehicles are well equipped and comfortable. I would not hesitate to refer Kalahari Skies to friends and family and others for their special safari experience. Well Done guys and keep it up! Zelda and Otti

Our first safari ever was a complete success. Everything was perfectly organized and managed: the exciting game drives, the excellent cooking, the carefree staying in the tented camps.
Eddy showed us a wonderful piece of African nature of which he seems to know every animal and every tree. His knowledge about fauna and flora is incredible. Together with Mano, Leonard and Tumelo, he made this trip an extraordinary experience that we will never forget.
