“Frank, Leandra and the team at SAFARI FRANK have been a delight to work with. They designed a creative, varied itinerary for us across Botswana and Tanzania - perfect for what we wanted and the time of year we were traveling. From mobile camping to a a couple of nights in some sensational lodges - the trip had it all. They really listened to what we wanted and considered our group in designing the itinerary."

“The trip itself was brilliant - admittedly a lot of that was due to the incredible experiences that Botswana and Tanzania offer - but Frank and the team can take much of the credit for pointing us in the right direction, putting us in some amazing places (and yes, the mobile safari was awesome) and linking us up with some brilliant safari guides and people. The detailed travel information that they provided was also first class. Can highly recommend!”
