Go on the trip of a lifetime! in Botswana will arrange a customized mobile camping photo safari. They will take you to iconic destinations such as the Okavango Delta and Savuti. My friend Gee is the owner, operator and guide, and I have been on safari six times with him – and each trip has been amazing!
Visit their website: https://makomkom.com/
Everyone who goes on these trips starts out saying an African Safari is on their bucket list and they expect it to be a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and by the time it is over, they are asking when can they go back!

See the journal and photos from my last trip here: https://teamwindchase.com/Africa-2025-01.htm
If you are interested in going on a safari, or have questions, I would be happy to answer any questions and/or help you make the arrangements with Makomkom Safaris. Email me (Phyllis Dawson) at [email protected].
