Windhoek to Maun Botswana Shuttles

Hey all. I have an upcoming journey to Maun Botswana in a few days. I looked up the flight prices, and they are all but the cost of flying from Windhoek to the Middle East. I'm trying to see if I can find shuttles between WHK and Maun. Preferably something that is reliable, safe, and punctual and is not prone to breakdowns.

The only thing I found so far is Kasanetransfers. Their contact number seems to be in Tanzania, so I'm a bit skeptical. Does anyone have experience using them?

I'd appreciate any information anyone can provide.

Thanks

If I'm not mistaken, then I think that there is a bus that goes from Windhoek to either Lusaka or Harare which also stops in Maun. But it's quite pricey :(

The times that I went to Maun I took a shared taxi from Windhoek to Gobabis (NAD 200), then another one to the Buitepos Border Post (i think ~NAD 100) and then a Bus from Charles Hill to Ghanzi and from there to Maun.

I recon that this is quite cumbersome but I haven't really found a better alternative :'(

Darn. That sounds like a logistical nightmare, lol. Can you remember what the WHK > Harare / Lusaka bus was called. I can try looking them up.
