Responsive and fun
My husband and I completed a 6 day safari with Africa Uncovered last week and we still cannot believe how good it was. From the very beginning of planning our itinerary, we were impressed with Archie’s responsiveness. He got back to us quickly and always offered to meet our expectations. He was able to build an itinerary which was exactly what we wanted.
Our guide Tafara met us at the airport and as it was a late night arrival took us straight to our accommodation, which was lovely. The other family who were supposed to join our group had cancelled, so we ended up with Tafara all to ourselves for the full week. How lucky were we? He gave us some suggestions for the next day, to make the most of the time we had and that first day was amazing. Tafara suggested we had enough time to cross the border into Zambia, so we took the opportunity to and so glad we did. We were taken to a reserve where we saw elephants, giraffes, and most importantly white rhinos.
We had 2 days in Victoria Falls, then 2 days in Hwange, and 2 days in Botswana. All our transfers and border crossings were done with a minimum of fuss. Some of the drives were very bumpy, but that’s not the company’s fault. Just relax and enjoy. And if you relax enough, you may even doze off, as I did.
Our safari drivers were very good, always safe and mindful of the animals we were watching. All our guides were friendly and obviously enjoy their jobs.
We are already planning a return trip to visit other countries on Africa Uncovered’s menu. We can highly recommend this company and Tafara in particular as a guide.

Zimbabwe and Botswana magic tour
100% fully recommended. The recent experience in Zimbabwe and Botswana with the company was awesome with special mention to our guide Norman who made the trip super top
High quality seamless safari
I did a trip to Zimbabwe and Botswana with Africa Uncovered Safaris. It was my fourth safari in Africa but my first time with this company. I was very impressed from start to finish. Archie made the planning aspect very easy and let me change the itinerary to suit my interests. The choice of accommodations was fantastic: everywhere was extremely clean, spacious and tastefully decorated. The game viewing was excellent, I saw lions in almost all of the game drives I did, alongside elephants, zebras, wildebeest, hyenas, jackals, giraffe, hippos, buffalo, crocodiles etc. I didn’t see any leopard or cheetah but it’s the wild, not a zoo, so these things cannot be promised. I saw loads of interesting birds and wished I had bought a bird book with me to learn more. The boat cruise on the Zambezi river was a highlight for me. I was actually intending on skipping this but Archie really recommended it and I’m so glad I did it. I did a day trip into Zambia to see rhinoceros in a protected area which was lovely.
As a solo female traveler I felt extremely safe with my guide Norman and under the care of Archie. One of the guides in Hwange called Simba was fantastic too. During the Victoria falls tour, I had a female guide named Peace. She was brilliant. She told me that Africa Uncovered Safaris had specifically sought a female guide for me, knowing I am a female solo traveler, without me even asking - I was so impressed by this attention to detail.
The quality of the food was very good throughout the tour. Most of the food was halal. Everything ran on time and I knew exactly what to expect.
I would not hesitate to book with Archie again and I was delighted to hear he can also arrange safaris in Namibia and Zambia, I am already planning my next one. For this region I have found my ‘go to’ safari operator with Africa Uncovered Safaris.
If you are a solo female traveler please don’t hesitate, you will feel totally safe.
Tips and advice: the game drives are in open sided vehicles and it gets very cold in the early morning and evening so bring layers and a light down jacket!

Outstanding guide and company
I had the joy of being partnered with Norman for a custom 11 day itinerary from Victoria Falls to Botswana's Okavango delta and back. Arranging the itinerary was smooth and efficient and my preferences and requests were immediately incorporated. Norman was an absolute treasure! He chose restaurants to adjust to my meal preferences, made sure I was able to do any extra activities I wanted and always made sure I was satisfied with accommodations and experiences. We also had excellent conversations during the drives, and I left with a new friend. The entire experience was exceptional!
Excellent communication, personalized service
I had an amazing experience seeing Botswana with Africa Uncovered Safaris. From the first correspondence the communication was clear and flexible with my plans. My guide, Norman, was fantastic. It was a true pleasure spending my week with him, learning about the country and animals, while becoming friends. A particular highlight was the overnight in the Okavango Delta, which was an incredible experience to be on foot and camping so close to the wildlife. I would highly recommend Africa Uncovered Safaris to everyone interested in seeing Botswana — the chosen route is perfect!
