Ok, Ngaire, you too could grow to love Wild Dogs! They are the most efficient predators in Africa, fascinating to observe. Spending 4 days with me in a vehicle is clearly the excruciating part! Seriously, interests do differ. We spent the last part of our recent trip in a private mobile tented camp - that is rustic! At the end of our trip, we stayed at Mala Mala for a few days - a real shower with his and her bathrooms was a welcome change.

Marc, the elephants and the crocs alone make a cruise on the Chobe River a memorable experience. However, (here he goes again) the Chobe region is more densely developed than other areas of Botswana. Since Chobe is within driving distance of Vic Falls, it might make a nice combination. We've stayed at Cresta Mowana - would recommend Chobe Game Lodge.
