So you’ve finally gotten around to planning your trip of a lifetime to Africa. You’ve been glued to the National Geographic and Discovery Channel for years, and been an avid follower of Sir David Attenborough’s wildlife shows, but it is only when you begin researching your trip to Africa that you begin to realize the sheer size of the task which faces you. Africa is a huge continent; there are so many different safaris to choose from, so much so that simply choosing which one can be rather daunting. There are walking safaris, mobile safaris, kayak and boating safaris, river safaris and luxury balloon safaris and rail safaris. 
Generally speaking, you want to experience wild Africa, where at every turn you come face to face with wildlife and are awoken to the sounds of the African wilderness and fall asleep underneath a canvas of stars. South Africa, Tanzania, Botswana and Kenya are exceptional safari destinations for first-time safari-goers. Within these countries, English is widely spoken and health issues are minimal. Malaria medication is required in each country with parts of South Africa being malaria free. Should you not wish to take the anti-malaria tablets then I would suggest visiting The Eastern Cape, North West province and the Waterberg in South Africa as they are the only malaria free safari areas.  The accommodation on a luxury safari to Africa varies greatly, from classic mobile safaris where you pitch your camp yourself to 5-star luxury tented accommodation and everything in between. It really depends on your budget. 
If you’re searching for that certain ‘je ne sais quoi’ then a safari holiday to Botswana has to be your ultimate choice for luxury. Botswana is highly regarded as one of Africa’s most luxurious and prestigious safari destinations. There are very few places in the world where you can indulge in rich and rustic environments and combine it with watching wildlife on water, land and by air. 
With Botswana being relatively remote it does make the price for a safari holiday rather expensive, as it encourages high-end, low volume tourism. However, the large fees keep the wildlife experience personal and often include light aircraft into the camps, similar to that of a taxi service. 
One of Botswana’s finest lodges is the Muchenje Safari Lodge, which sits eloquently on an escarpment with exceptional views of the Chobe River, and Namibia’s Caprivi Strip and season floodplains. The Lodge enjoys a unique position in the west of Botswana’s Chobe National Park. The lodge is owner run which is unique to Botswana and adds to the personal touch of your unique holiday to Botswana. The Lodge has eleven beautiful thatched bungalow’s, each having their unique view over the Chobe River.
