We had planned a wonderful family trip to southern Africa with our 10-year-old twins. Julie and Vincent put together a magnificent itinerary for us at the end of December 2024, between Botswana and Zimbabwe.

Despite the start of the rainy season, we had no trouble encountering a wide variety of animals in the national parks and campsites. My 10-year-old daughter had the fright of her life when a baboon climbed into the 4×4’s cell right in front of her to steal our fruit!

Southern Africa is and remains a paradise for wonderful adventures. Animals reign supreme, humans remain discreet, nature is untouched – what a pleasure!

Thank you to Julie and Vincent for their superb organisation, well done!
