Botswana - African Horseback Safaris

“I had a lovely time and the riding was incredible.  All the horses were great – very reliable and responsive and knew their job very well.  We saw a lot of wildlife; I don’t  think there was a single day we went out and didn’t see something exciting!  Likewise the staff were friendly and I was very well looked after.  I’d love to go back some time when I get the chance.  Thank you very much for helping me pull this trip together – I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable horseback safari.”

“The animals speak for themselves (seeing an elephant at 20 metres, and one outside my tent on the first morning inspecting my pjamas, lions etc…..going to sleep is a bit like being on LSD, there are so many noises it was crazy! The tents were perfect – everything you need and a lovely lady who delivered coffee every morning. The horses were gorgeous – so fit, responsive and well looked after.  The small groups were great  and once you enter the delta, there is really no other vehicle/anybody there. But one thing I would like to stress  –  everybody noticed  the staff and guides were so kind.  Everything seemed effortless, but clearly a lot of thought had gone into it. Drinks and smiles all the time…..  I really can’t recommend them enough and the atmosphere was just as important as the riding/game.The food was delic and lots of it…I had a couple of afternoons off, and it was nice that you could do something else because there was so much to take in. Thank you so much for all your help – I really did not have to lift a finger”

“I did indeed have a wonderful time in Botswana. Although its a huge cliche, the only way I can describe it was ‘life-changing’. The facilities at the camp were faultless, the food was great and drinks were on hand at all times. The riding was sublime, even without the wildlife, it would have been fantastic.”

“The holiday was everything and more than we expected. Macatoo is truly a special place with wonderful people and incredible horses. Thank You”

“Had a simply fab time! Wonderful riding and lots of laughs!”

“The Okavango Delta was a complete and marvellous contrast with horses and riding to die for.”

“As always the holiday was amazing. Camp was great and the food was delicious. Many thanks for all the organising you do your end”

“Was an absolutely outstanding trip. Macatoo was great the food was nice and homely and we loved the atmosphere; the guides are incredibly knowledgeable and cater information to personal interests which I thought was great”

The service and accommodations at Macatoo were excellent, and the guides went out of their way to make your stay great.

“Well what a holiday! Absolutely fantastic in every imaginable way. The riding was superb, the staff were all fantastic but Neil and I both thought the two main guides Secongo and Bongwei were the making of the place – fantastic bushmen, absolutely fascinating to listen to, amazing knack of instilling confidence in ‘big game’ situations and brilliant hosts too in the evenings. We will certainly be recommending you and AHS to lots of friends. We would love to go back again some day.”
