General Notes

Please refer to the “Travel Information” section on the Road Scholar website, the start/end time listed in your first informational packet or contact the provider if you plan on booking your own flights for correct arrival and departure dates. Due to the nature of this program, listening devices are not available. The summer months of November-March are considered the green season in southern Africa; quick rain showers in the afternoon are common, and game viewing may be more difficult due to the lush vegetation and more plentiful water, which causes the wildlife to be more dispersed. Seasonal advantages this time of year: the vegetation is beautiful and green; the flowering plants are in bloom; many animals give birth at this time of year; and there are more bird species in the area due to migratory birds.

This is elephant country, home to the largest population of elephants in the world…many of these great grey giants can be seen at this time of year. (Note: seasonality makes a big difference in how much game you will see. If it’s dry you will see larger herds; if it has recently rained the animals will be more dispersed).

The Chobe region is best known for its vast magnificent river and floodplains filled with grazing herds of big game.

Experience one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World from the new Radisson Blu Hotel in Zambia. The Radisson Blu sits on the shore of the Zambezi River and within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. Travelers can gaze at the river and look out for park wildlife while enjoying a morning cup of coffee from their private terrace or taking a dip in the outdoor pool. Relax in this magical setting surrounded by the natural beauty of Zambia, or adventure to Victoria Falls, just a stone’s throw from the hotel. Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is a sanctuary free from predators, which guarantees a stable population of wildlife throughout the year. Elephants are seen during the dry season, and white rhino, giraffe, buffalo, waterbuck, impala, wildebeest, zebra, bushbuck, warthog, monkeys, baboon, hippo and crocodiles are residents in the park year round. This is the only wildlife area in Zambia with white rhinos because they are closely protected here from poachers by the scouts from the Department of National Parks and Wildlife. The park is filled with a mix of riverine forest, mopane woodland, and grassland, which also provides a variety of habitats for numerous bird species.
3 nights
Location: Chobe
As the only lodge in Chobe National Park, Chobe Game Lodge is the perfect place to enjoy magnificent views over the Chobe River as well as a friendly visit from the local wildlife. Its recently built boardwalk gives a new meaning to game-viewing, as you enjoy some refreshments on deck while watching herds of elephant, and various other wildlife, congregate by the river to bathe, drink, and play.

Location: Hwange National Park
Khulu Bush Camp is an intimate, classic safari camp built on a 6,000-acre conservation parcel of Hwange National Park, allowing unparalleled access to wildlife.

The camp consists of spacious, tented rooms, all with private bathroom facilities including indoor and outdoor bath or shower. During game drives and foot safaris at Khulu Bush Camp, witness a diverse range of habitat environments (open savannah, forest, semi-desert) that invites a mix of buffalo, zebra, impala, elephant, giraffe, and sable.

Patricia – Class of 2024 | NEBRASKA CITY, NE
I give Road Scholar a 5 out of 5 stars for this educational adventure to five countries in Africa. It was top-notch all the way, from the lodging, to the food, to the excursions. Our guide, Honest, was the best of the best! Completely knowledgeable of all subjects, but especially on the wildlife. I enjoyed the historic tours of Constitution Hill and The Aparthied Museum. The safaris were incredible with up-close encounters of many wildlife species. Our buffet meals were always delicious and we could never go hungry. I would recommend this trip to anyone that desires to experience a culture rich in history, family unity, and one that has overcome racial division.

This trip was incredible - from the places we visited, to the accommodations, to the wildlife, to the people we met and the conservation and social organizations we got to visit. This was my first visit to the continent of Africa and I cannot wait to return and see more. Our guide Chris deserves special mention - I've been on a few Road Scholar trips in the past and while all of the guides have been excellent, Chris exceeded that already high standard and made this something special. If I could get on a plane to Johannesburg today and do the whole thing again, I would!

This was a trip of a lifetime and worth every penny! It exceeded all expectations. Our guide was excellent, the accommodations during the safaris were great with awesome food and service (although I missed air conditioning at Hwange Nat'l Park). The educational parts of the program were very interesting. Best of all we were able to see almost all of the animals at a close distance while still feeling safe. Unfortunately we missed the flight over the Atlantic due to airline issues so we missed the first day of the program but RoadScholar was very helpful and took care of us as soon as we arrived. I highly recommend this program!

Cynthia – Class of 2013 | Los Gatos, CA
I just returned from my trip to Africa. It was truly the best Road Scholar trip I have taken and I have been on 14 of them. They have all been good but this one was outstanding. From the cohesiveness of our group of 12, to the beautiful lodging, meals, and especially the experiences, I could not have asked for more. One outstanding moment was when we hung out with a pride of lions who were quite content due to mama having gone 'shopping' that morning and everyone was satiated and well fed. There were 7 cubs, 3 lionesses, and yes, Big Daddy. The highlight was when the cubs began quarreling over their lunch and Daddy became annoyed and let out many long growls to discipline them. Most of us got this on video and if you remember that MGM lion roaring - you can understand what a thrill this was. There were so many unique and amazing experiences - with elephants and an irritated hippo, to boot, visiting the orphanage, school and 'old folks'. If you are considering this trip - I hope you are fortunate enough to have our guide Khule. Just go if you can!

Sandra – Class of 2008 | Cuba, MO
5 stars I just participated in my 15th Road Scholar trip and it was by far my best. I am 78 years old, widowed and travel solo. The group always made me feel included as there were other solo travelers in the group as well as couples. All the guides made me feel very safe at all times. Khule was our main guide for two weeks and he was excellent! He is a very kind man, intelligent, nonending patience, organized, and took care of every detail and kept the trip running smoothly. We all felt very blessed to have him as our guide. We saw many many animals and were able to get very close in a safe manner. We learned about South Africa's history, enteracted with the locals, ate at local restaurants, visited open markets. visited a couple of schools and an Old Folks Home. We had sundowners (happy hour) on the plain at sunset in Hwange National Park and viewed the stars in the night sky. We rode in safari vehicles through the bush and pontoon boats on the Chobe River. All the lodges were lovely including our 5 star lodge, Radisson, at the end of the trip but the lodges in the bush were out of a storybook; Khulu Lodge was my favorite. The lodges in the bush made you feel one with nature! The food was always delicious and plentiful. Anybody who loves nature and animals will loves this trip. The trip takes endurance. Once in a lifetime experience. I am very grateful I was able to experience it.

This is a great trip for folks who have never been to Africa because you get to see five countries, go on safari, see important sights in Johannesburg and meet the locals who are doing good work. While the game drives are a key part of this trip, they are bookended by other interesting venues, including Constitution Hill in Jo'burg and Victoria Falls from both the Zimbabwean and Zambian sides. There's a lot of moving around but the schedule is well-planned. This was my first Road Scholar trip and it definitely will not be my last.

I wish I could wax poetic about this trip but the first week was one disaster after another. Our original flight was cancelled (UNITED). We couldn't make a change because it was booked by Road Scholar and we spent the next two days on the phone with them trying to get on another flight. Finally left 3 days later than planned and our connecting flight was cancelled. So now it’s July 4th and the only agents available at Road Scholar did not understand our problem (would miss the next connection and needed a new ticket issued). We had to fly to Johannesburg and spend another day on the phone with Road Scholar to catch up to our group. I commend them for coming through at the end, but the lack of a direct and immediate connection with someone who could help us out was very frustrating and will make me think twice about trusting them to make our flight plans in the future. We would have given up and gone home several times that first week but Road Scholar kept warning us that if we decided to cancel rather than try to complete the trip, the insurance company was unlikely to pay for our losses!!! We managed to experience one week of the two week tour and loved it once we recovered from jet lag and anger. Be prepared for freezing nights and rooms with no heat if you travel in the African winter. Food was abundant. Only praise and love for our guide, Honest. He is extremely knowledgeable, easy to talk with, and a great photographer! A bit disappointed that we were not given additional expert speakers for the talks as promised. Now we are still waiting to hear from the insurance company hoping we will be able to get some money back for the time we missed.

So amazing..... This trip was a lifelong dream of mine. This program went above and beyond what I could have ever imagined, and was truly the trip of a life time. In addition to being on safari, I was able to learn about all things Africa (the history, the animals, the food, the people etc.), and I was able to connect with the local people in ways I could have never imagined. This was the trip of a lifetime for me, and I would recommend it to anyone! Don't wait, life is too short. This is my second solo trip with Road Scholar, and I never felt like I was left out or alone. 5 Star Rating

A fantastic experience. It exceeded expectations. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, it did. Each day had new things learn and explore. I was shocked at how close we were to all of the animals. We were a few feet from elephants, lions, zebra, and more. Our guides were knowledgeable and never sacrificed a great experience for safety. Daddy Chris was kind, caring, and funny. It couldn't have been easy to keep us always on task, but he did. This was a trip that I will always cherish.

Glenn – Class of 2008 | Kennewick, WA
i believe this trip involved more complex logistics than any other tour i have ever been on. On one day i think we were transported by boat, 2 different buses, and safari vehicle while going through at least 3 if not 4 countries. Mr. Khule was great in herding us unpredictable rats through the maze. There were delays and the inevitable rescheduling that he smoothly guided us through. it was quite a diverse group with some younger folks mixed in with one 87 year old. I compliment him on keeping the spectrum of individuals happy and unbothered. the diversity of this tour was exceptional. From gorgeous water falls, plush hotels, safari treks, boat rides to walks through markets, and charity to schools and old folks homes. Good!!!! only negative was that a couple of the guides were hard to hear/understand and in some cases at Joburg. and the 13 of us could not get close enough to the guide to hear. Good tour, good guides, and good times

Holly – Class of 2024 | Calabasas, CA
Transformed is the perfect word. Everyone I know who has visited Africa told me it would be a life changing event. I thought that meant the magical experience of watching, up close and personal, wild animals roaming free over endless vast amounts of land. Or not to mention the “Sundowner” respite every afternoon as the sun began its daily journey eastward and as staff of the Hulu Bush Camp in Zimbabwe unpacked our gin and tonics and cocktail bites wherever we landed at that magical pink moment. But the unexpected catalyst in this journey back to the Motherland were the people. These amazing perfectly “present” gorgeous people. The calmness as I looked directly in their unwavering eyes as they spoke their truth was mesmerizing. However, the people’s fundamental duty to steward the land with kindness and love was the remarkable trait that transformed me. And the South African native who exemplified our first-class Road Scholar experience was our guide and leader, Johann Roscher. His calm organized demeanor of making sure each one of us felt safe, taken care of, and had loads of fun ...combined with his extensive knowledge of African history ... personified the unique stellar experience traveling with Road Scholar embodies. Bravo to the Road Scholar organization behind all the logistics of planning foreign travel, luggage, unique lodges, transportation ...it was top notch! Having traveled extensively around the globe since I spent a semester in college at the University of Denmark, I will never attempt to take on the duty of planning my own travel ever again! Now that I am of a certain age and am a solo traveler, I will allow my new best friends at Road Scholar to handle all my travel in perpetuity ...my job is to only decide ... "Where in the World do I Want to Be?" Holly Powell African Safari: A Close-up on Wildlife January 26-February 9, 2024 5 STARS!!! *The only hotel whose buffet food was bad was Radison Blu in Livingstone, Zambia. Divine food before!

John | Bagdad, KY
On balance, a good trip. I'll start with the positives. First, Johann was probably the best tour leader I have had over the years. He excelled in all the areas one could hope for in a tour leader. In addition, half way through the trip I lost a hearing aid rendering me partially deaf. Johann, as well as other trip attendees, went above and beyond in helping me get through this unexpected disability. He also helped me build quite a list of bird species for the trip. In terms of lodging and meals, all were at or above expectations with the exception of the Radisson Blu in Livingstone. The food there was mediocre. I was especially impressed with the quality of food at the two "bush camps", Khulu and Chobe. I did find some of the charitable experiences somewhat contrived, and to a certain extent, a little demeaning to the recipients. All in all, I would not hesitate to recommend this trip to others.

This trip was amazing with a good mix of game drives and boat rides to view the animals and excursions to markets, schools and a senior center for the local understanding of the culture. The day spent in Johannesburg at the start of the trip was sobering as we learned about life under Apartheid with visits to Constitution Hill, Soweto, and the Hector Pietersen Museum. The many local people who shared their culture and lives with us were open and friendly. Lisa Reed, our guide, was an extraordinary fount of knowledge and a bright spot to all who interacted with her. We could tell she was well loved by everyone in the many places we went. Although it was hot, I found that going in October was fine because the trees had not started to leaf out yet and we could see further into the forest. There were also several babies to be seen from elephants, warthogs, baboons, painted dogs, and a white rhino. The lodges were great and the food was wonderful. This was my seventh trip with Road Scholar and my favorite so far.

This program was as described and accurate. It was all I expected and more. Saw many animals and was able to get great pictures. The activity level was as described, but getting in and out of the safari vehicles was a little diffecult (very high and hard to climb into for some). Our trip was in October during the very dry season and weather in the high 90's to over 100 most days. The dry season made viewing the animals easier because because of the lack of leaves and greenery, but the high temps and very hot sun made it more tiring than expected. I would consider if October is the best time of year if the very warm weather is a concern. Otherwise a perfect trip. I don't regret a thing.

This was an amazing trip and our guide, Mark, really made it that way.. We saw 4 of the big 5 in the wild along with hundreds of other species big and small. We saw Rhinos in a conserve area since unfortunately they need to be protected.. We saw Victoria Falls from the Zimbabwe side and the Zambezi side and took a helicopter ride over the falls which was amazing.. Mark, our guide, born and raised in Zimbabwe was very knowledgeable, patient, organized and taught us so much about the areas we visited not just the wildlife but also cultural, social, political & gave us all a greater appreciation for the places & people we visited.

The lodges were all very nice, and the meals were very good. Special dietary needs were taken care of. Well organized - and our leader, Keith, took great care of everyone, including solving a few problems that arose. Make sure to check what the weather will be at the time of your trip - several in our group had to make a quick shopping trip to buy warmer clothing. As mentioned in the trip description, binoculars are essential, so make sure that you have a good pair with you.

A first rate adventure into southern Africa. The program was very well organized. We kept a good brisk schedule. Walking was very manageable. There were community service opportunities in two of the countries which helped us see how people live, eat and shop. Animal sightings were very good. All the lodges we stayed at were wonderful. Super clean and every effort was made to have spotless rooms and service. This is Africa so some of the dinners were more meat than we usually eat, they were all hearty and well prepared. The drivers/guides were incredibly knowledgeable as was our main guide, Keith. He made sure all arrangements were seamless.

Our African Safari was A Trip of a Lifetime! It was an exceptionally well-planned and wonderfully executed program.

The local markets, museums as well as the schools, orphanage and senior care center provided us with insight into the local culture, politics and history.

Jennifer – Class of 2022 | Walnut Creek, CA
Outstanding! The program exceeded my expectations. We saw so much wildlife unclose and thriving in their natural habitat. The program offered a nice balance between game drives and other cultural activities. The best drives were early morning and late afternoon. We could have shortened/eliminated some of the long rides midday. I especially appreciated being among the local people and being introduced to local families, community members, and children. Unfortunately, the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg was closed on the days RS had planned to take our group (it was probably too late to change our itinerary). Of course, we selected this trip because it focused on wildlife and we saw so many animals with rare observations of lions and baboons interacting, and a pack of African painted dogs. We particularly loved the elephants, giraffe, lions, and babies with their mothers of all species. There were far fewer insects (mosques, flies) than anticipated. We used bug repellant every day and I only got one mosquito bite the entire trip. Special commendations to our intrepid and spectacular leader/guide; Mark Geraghty, Joel (Honest Siyawareva?) and all the local guides. They went above and beyond to share their knowledge, expertise, passion, and wonderful sense of humor. Mark even followed up by sending everyone a photo record of the trip. The accommodations were top notch; specifically Khulu Bush Camp in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe, Sousa Island Tent Camp, and the Riverclub in Zambia. Food was generally amazing, nutritious, and delicious. (I personally preferred to be able to serve myself so I wasn't given more food than I could finish, but I understand that various lodgings wanted to provide 5-star service.) Overall, it was the trip of a lifetime and I shall hold the sights and people in my heart forever! Thank you, Road Scholar!

It was the perfect blend of exposure to wild animals and their environment, of eye-opening and heart-warming cultural immersion and the broadening of one’s knowledge of the history of nations far off of our normal radar. Chris, our group leader, was peerless in his knowledge and skill as a shepherd and teacher who all of us felt fortunate to know. As travel became more accessible after the pandemic, my wife and I have been to Greece, Costa Rica and now this African Safari (and the Cape Town extension) within a year’s time. Each one was an indelible treasure, but this trip was the most impactful of all. As daunting as the expense and experience seems, it goes by in a flash of time and comfortable adventure, leaving a treasure of memories.

What a great wildlife adventure! I saw ALL of the Big Five and some were up close and personal! Over 400 Cape Buffalo crossed our path and stared us down while others continued to the watering hole! Lions and Rhino were unphased by our presence and photographs were taken at every turn. You couldn't ask for a more qualified program leader than Sisa Moyo! He made this trip captivating at every turn and met my every need! Great job, Road Scholar!

This was the most amazing, unique, and almost spiritual trip that I have ever taken in the 30 years I have traveled. Africa is beautiful. The service at all the camps and resorts was Michelin class! And most of all, our guide Sam was the most helpful, organized and knowledgeable that I have ever had. We all fell in love with our guide Sam and many tears were shed when he had to put us on our plane home! Don’t miss this trip if you love nature and wildlife!

The trip was an opportunity of a lifetime. The program leader/guide (Sam M) made the trip! His knowledge of the animals and the history of the countries was astounding! He was personable, funny, and went above and beyond for our group participants! 4 of the 5 accommodations were above 5 star and the food was amazing! The museums, lectures, and other information was a very pleasant addition to seeing all the animals and Victoria Falls. If you have any thought of going on an African Safari, Road Scholar is the definite way to go!!! Bucket List wish fulfilled!

We loved this trip - start to finish! Such a great opportunity to visit this amazing part of the world, and learn about the natural history, culture and geography of the region was outstanding. Accommodations, group leadership weather and wildlife did not dissapoint! Beautiful landscapes and wildlife to view across the whole trip. Particularly liked getting to learn about the regional cultures of Southern Africa.

Kerry – Class of 2014 | Montgomery Village, MD
This is a trip worth taking—superbly organized, lovely accommodations, delightful people everywhere we went, lots of cool animals to see, and all of it made particularly exceptional by our guide, Lisa. Her wealth of information about animals—and so much about Southern Africa!—were such a treat. If you go when winter is coming on (May, say), know that you will need more warm clothes than warm-weather ones. (And I, for one, never needed either sunscreen nor insect repellant, despite all the pre-trip info). And that I will, from now on, call them “sundowners” rather than “happy hours.” If “African safari” is on your bucket list, or whatever, this is a good one for you.

This was my third RS trip, but first ever to the African continent. What an adventure! From the smallest insects to the largest mammals, from iconic African landscapes to gracious and welcoming locals, it was wonderful to learn about and experience “up close and personal” the diversity and interconnectivity of this part of our planet, both in terms of human populations as well as the unique flora and fauna of southern Africa. I went with few pre conceived notions other than those gleaned from nature documentaries, films, zoos, etc. and returned with a host of unexpected and truly meaningful encounters that will forever bring a smile and shape how I see the world. Our camp accommodations were the perfect combination of style and comfort (great food and drink, of course) while keeping us immersed in the fantastic nature that surrounded us. Woven throughout and perhaps best of all, our group leader, Lisa, was nothing short of outstanding…..entertaining, beyond knowledgeable, and forever attentive to our every need. 5 gold stars to her, all of the camp staff and hosts, the guest presenters and Road Scholar’s local tour operator.

I highly recommend this trip. It has a perfect mix of a variety of experiences. Our guide Mark was hugely responsible for our enjoyment of this trip. Meals included were appreciated so we didn't waste time looking for places to eat on our own. Loved not having much free time, I can do nothing at home, we went so we could see and do all that we could and we did a lot of both and loved it! Trip of a lifetime and then some!!

This trip was the absolute best! We saw everything we hoped for as far as wildlife. This program is so much more than just animals. It covers culture, customs and understanding of each country and that country's role in Africa's history as well as today's world. I would say if you are interested in visiting Africa. just do it with this adventure. You will not regret it!!

The guide Mark was very well versed in the history and the animals of all the regions we visited. He handled all the PCR tests and visas that we all reguired several times since we crossed so many borders. In addition, Sam, a previous guide on another RS trip, was also a guide at one of the camps for 3 days. What a joy to have such great guides. The activities were all fun and exciting: petting and walking with ellies, horseback riding and swimming in the Zambeze. What a trip!!! Thank you Mark and Sam.

What a fabulous experience getting to know Southern Africa, specifically Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana. Of course seeing "the Big Five" (elephant, buffalo, rhinocerus, lion, leopard) plus many others was exciting. But equally valuable is the new appreciation I have for the amazing history and culture of this region with some the friendliest people I've ever met. Africa is so misrepresented in the western world! The bush camps were special -- luxurious accommodations with gourmet dining, while watching the wildlife a few steps away. Before you go, research how the time of year (wet season and dry season) makes a difference in the experience so your expectations are met.

This is was our 3rd Road Scholar international experience - it did NOT disappoint in any way. Although you always just scratch the travel surface, our small group experiences in these 4 African countries included amazing wildlife encounters and so, so much more. Excellent educational full-bodied! Five stars! It was a trip of a lifetime for us.

A combination of having an outstanding tour leader, Lisa Reed, having opportunities for over a dozen game drives (or other wildlife viewing experiences), getting to view Victoria Falls from both the Zambia and Zimbabwe sides, as well as comfortable accommodations made this Road Scholar African Safari: A Close-up on Wildlife a perfect way for me to check off "Safari and Victoria Falls" from my bucket list. Thank you Road Scholar and Lisa!

Margaret – Class of 2018 | Union Hall, VA
We are still trying to figure out how we could experience so much for the price of this tour. Our guide, Sam, was over-the-top fantastic garnering all of our respect, all the while being thoughtful, kind, courteous, knowledgeable and funny with the entire group. The lodging was fabulous and meals wonderful. Close your eyes and picture a 20' outdoor table set with lovely tableware -- and in the evening tea lights -- the atmosphere just calling for friendly conversation. Game drives stopped along the way and in a matter of minutes a table and tablecloth were set up with drinks and snacks while we all relaxed and shared the pictures we had taken. On our safari rides were able to see many, many animals -- a leopard was seen by one guide when only the flick of its tail was in view. I'd call that good scouting for sure. This was our second Road Scholar trip but it won't be our last. We are already scouring the catalogs for our next adventure. Bill and Peggy Clutz

What a fantastic trip to be involved in. Our tour guide (Mark) was very educated in the lives of the people. Being in the mist of my people, (people of color) it was amazing for some to have not met an African-American from the United States. The respect I was given was amazing. As I understand, the women in the family is highly respected. It was amazing to be almost an icon in the present of my people. I was totally overwhelmed with the kindness, respect and attention given. I, being a person of color can appreciate this. Mark did a great job of preparing us for this trip and I appreciate his concerns for myself and anyone who had a concern. My tourist partners were great. I felt as is I knew them for a long time. All in all, the trip was great, and Mark and Chantell were the best Thank you Frances(Frannie)Pratt

I really enjoyed this program. We were able to see an incredible number of animals on the many game drives, the two river cruises, and from the rooms of the lodges where we stayed. I wish I had known to bring warmer clothes for the evening and early morning game drives. Thank goodness for the warm ponchos! The staff at the lodges were friendly and welcoming. The visit to the school and village was extremely well organized and informative. We have been on similar visits during other Road Scholar programs, and this was by far the best. It didn't seem like something "added on" as a cultural experience. It's a good idea to have some cash with you at all times because some of the places on the itinerary had small items for sale to help support their charitable work. Although there weren't many opportunities for walking, I think the "On Your Feet" classification is accurate. We were busily engaged for most of the days. If anything, I would have appreciated a bit more time between experiences to ponder what we had seen and learned.

Sherry – Class of 2014 | Lynnwood, WA
I recommend this trip, for both its rewards and difficulties. The trip included abundant game drives as well as honest glimpses into life in Zimbabwe. I was glad to be spending money in a country that so needed it and even wished I'd brought more. Bring more cash than RS suggests. You may think, as I did, that you don't plan to shop much, but then you can't resist the delights. I would have preferred a more physically active tour; there wasn't much walking. Food was excellent in some locations and abysmal in others. The high level of service was astonishing. Along with others in the group, I found Keith to be the best guide we've encountered among our various travels. I was not happy with the inaccurate, overly general information provided before the tour. In May you need more than a fleece jacket to layer over a long-sleeved shirt and tee. For early morning and after-dark drives, you need gloves, a warm hat (not just a sun hat), and several more layers of warm clothing. Long underwear would have been a great help. It's true that you mustn't wear bright colors on game drives, but it would have been perfectly OK to wear subdued shades of blue. Due to an incident with misplaced bags, I urge Road Scholar to set things up so that we verify our bags when they're unloaded even though we also verified them when they were loaded for various transports. The absolute worst thing about this tour and others like it is the over-use of disposable plastic water bottles, contributing to the world plastic crisis. Even through we brought refillable bottles, clean water for the refills was not always available and we had to use the throw-aways. I urge RS to find solutions to this problem.

This is an outstanding program and exceeded our expectations. The guide, Honest, was outstanding - extremely knowledgeable, great sense of humor, good leader. A credit to Road Scholar. We felt safe at all times. The fellow travelers were wonderful and there was great group cohesion. Appreciated the small size - 10 participants. The safari lodges were terrific and the food was great at all of them. The educational programs, lectures and site visits were outstanding. The game drives were wonderful - we saw all of the Big Five and learned so much about the animals and birds. The staff at the lodges could not have been more welcoming, friendly and helpful. And such an unexpected pleasure to have free laundry services in the safari lodges. The safari vehicles were comfortable and we appreciated always getting to have an outside seat for good viewing. The late afternoon drives always included a break in a lovely area where beverages and snacks were plentiful, often served on a white clothed table! High teas at all the lodges were a treat. never had a problem with mosquitoes, dust, or what some participants in previous reviews complained about as very hard seats. We could not have been more pleased with this trip and are looking at another Road Scholar trip to Africa. There is so much to see and they are so well done.
