Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and...

    The guides (Mambo, Daniel, Jackson) on the Cape Town to Vic Falls leg where excellent. The intinerary is good, except the "Okavango" is not the real Delta. It's the Panhandle, it's boring and you don't see the real Delta. It's fake advertising. The guide Joe on the Vic Falls to Jo'burg leg is the worst guide I ever met. He’s an authoritarian dictatorial leader who makes the whole tour revolve around himself, not around the travel experience, with his constant commenting on everything that crosses the view. He completely dominates the whole space, constantly drawing attention to himself, and wants to be in control of every move, restricting your movement. After a discussion over an open truck window with another group member he threatened to put me out of the tour in front of the whole group, accused me of disrespecting the crew and called me a racist out of nowhere. Next his behaviour during the game drives on the truck in Kruger Park is disgraceful. Every serious guide knows you’re supposed to keep quiet while actually viewing, photographing and enjoying the wildlife. Joe on the other hand is constantly making silly remarks on EVERY animal we encounter. Not once, but over and over again, while driving or while standing still to watch. (buffalo soldier, donkeys in pyjamas, pumba, gnu gnu gnu, heep heep hippo, impala = McDonalds, chicken impressions, hyena sounds, provoking elephants to charge, commenting every move, etc... it goes on and on). In response to my complaint, INTRPID believes this behaviour on game drives is ok, they ignore the false racism accusations, and repeat the guide's lies on "his authority being undermined" (yes that's what this person is all about). Avoid being stuck with this tour leader.

    This was my first experience with group travel and I really wasn’t sure it would be for me. But this trip exceeded my expectations in every way. My fellow travelers were a broad mix of fascinating, intelligent people ranging in age from 26-76 and our guides were extremely knowledgeable and helpful, as well. The food was delicious and the sights incredible. Absolutely the adventure of a lifetime! Highly recommended.
