Not only was this a beautiful scene, but it was made more enjoyable because our guide, Stanza of Letaka Safaris was sensitive to our photography needs and positioned the vehicle to get the best backlit shot. At this moment we knew that our travel agent, Evelyn Weskob had indeed chosen the best operators for our needs and our budgets. Evelyn lived in Maun, Botswana for more than 20 years and ran a travel business there. She now lives in Perth.
