Zimbabwe Botswana Game Tracker Tour Feedback:

“An unbelievable trip with Malinga and Eddie. It met all our expectations and more!”

Jacqui and Howie recently travelled with us and shared some wonderful feedback about their experience.

They loved the comfort and big windows of the red Sunway truck, the variety of accommodation and, of course, the food. There was always plenty to eat, with three hearty meals a day, fresh fruit available and the opportunity to pick up snacks along the way.

The Okavango camping experience was a particular highlight, with the sounds of wildlife around camp at night. They were also amazed by the incredible wildlife sightings throughout the journey, including herds of elephants and a pride of lions walking past them in Hwange National Park, which became their favourite destination.

As keen birdwatchers, they also managed to record an impressive **103 bird species** during the trip!

Canoeing alongside hippos, learning about the history of the countries they visited and taking helicopter flights over Victoria Falls and the Okavango Delta added even more unforgettable experiences.

Jacqui summed it up perfectly:

*“I had happy tears most of the trip because it was so perfect.”*

A huge thank you to Jacqui and Howie for sharing their experience, and to guides Malinga and Eddie for helping make it such a memorable journey.

Sunrise, sand dunes, and one of the most remarkable places on Earth.

As the first light of day touched the sands of Dune 45, the Namib Desert began to transform. The cool blues of dawn gave way to deep orange and red hues, revealing the dramatic shapes and colours that make Sossusvlei one of Africa's most photographed destinations.

From there, the adventure continued up Big Daddy, one of the highest sand dunes in the world. Every step through the soft sand was rewarded with sweeping views across an endless sea of dunes stretching towards the horizon.

Then came Dead Vlei.

Surrounded by towering dunes and dotted with ancient camel thorn trees, this surreal white clay pan feels almost otherworldly. The contrast between the bright clay, dark tree skeletons and towering red dunes creates one of the most unique landscapes on Earth.

Sossusvlei isn't just a place to visit, it's a place to experience. From sunrise at Dune 45 to the summit of , Big Daddy and the striking beauty of Dead Vlei, this is a journey through some of Namibia's most extraordinary scenery.

One of those classic Kruger moments that never gets old.

Our game drive came to a gentle stop as a herd of elephants made their way across the road, totally in charge of the traffic.

Watching elephants in the wild is always special, but there's something magical about being surrounded by a family herd as they move together through the bush. The younger calves stayed close to their mothers, the older elephants kept a watchful eye on the group, and for a few minutes, everything else faded into the background.

These are the moments that remind us why Kruger National Park is one of Africa's most incredible wildlife destinations. No fences, no schedules, just wildlife going about its daily life while we have the privilege of watching from a respectful distance.



Did you know? With thousands of elephants roaming freely across the park, Kruger National Park is one of Africa's premier destinations for elephant sightings and wildlife photography.

A truly unforgettable African safari moment with Sunway Safaris.

There's nothing quite like seeing a wild lion walking confidently down a remote dirt road, approaching your safari vehicle before calmly passing by just a few metres away. Encounters like this are what make an African safari one of the world's most extraordinary wildlife experiences.

For our guests, this was a rare opportunity to observe one of Africa's most iconic predators behaving naturally in its own environment. The quiet confidence, power, and presence of a lion in the wild is something no photograph can fully capture.

Every game drive offers something different, but when a lion chooses the road ahead, everyone knows they're witnessing a moment that will be remembered forever.

At Sunway Safaris, we travel through some of Africa's most wildlife-rich regions, giving our guests the chance to experience authentic safari encounters with lions, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, and countless other species in their natural habitats.
