It is a great half day excursion from Gaborone. Our guide Oto was knowledgeable and extremely enthusiastic to show us the rock paintings, the Livingstone tree and the village of Manyana. Wonderful way to see the area around Gaborone.

Otto really provided me with a good understanding of the Botswana culture (in a way I got immersed in it).
I would recommend it since she really got me to better understand the way of life, both with regards to the present and the past.

I had a wonderful time! Seeing Manyana and the wall paintings was incredible, once in a life time. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had lots to say about everything.

This was an amazing tour that really gave a sense for life in a small village. The ancient cave paintings were breathtaking and the trip from the paintings to the Livingstone tree made memories for a lifetime! Highly recommend this trip.
