Problem with our rented pick-up trucp from McKenzie Self-Drive 4x4 (mechto), in Maun, Botswana
We rented a vehicle to do a self-drive safari in the Moremi game reserve and Chobe national park, in Botswana. As it turned out, the vehicle we received was not quite up to what we expected. Most of the gas we poured went directly to the ground. Considering we were in the middle of of a national park, with the nearest gas station being 200+km away, let's just say we were in BIG TROUBLE.
As it turned out, our truck had two gas tanks that were rigged together with a FOAM PIPE. As you can imagnine, diesel+foam=meltdown.
We have been trying to get some money back for this misadventure, to no avail! BE WARNED: Do not rent a truck from this company, as they are unwilling to stand behind their vehicle is things go wrong, even if it is 100% their fault.

Moremi Mud Crossing April 2014
There was a lot of rain at the beginning of the 2014 season in Botswana and that left us having some fun in the mud. Good fun and something to laugh about over a beer once we got through it.

Savuti - Safari in Botswana
Savuti ligt in het zuidwestelijke deel van het Chobe National Park. Om er te komen moet je over een zeer zanderige weg; een 4x4 is dus noodzakelijk.
Water is schaars; Savute heeft een lange tijd van droogte gekend. In 2008 was er zoveel regen dat de rivier weer gevuld was, maar sindsdien is het weer erg droog.
