An extraordinary, flawlessly executed trip of a lifetime with Africa Zim. Simply unforgettable!
This was our very first safari experience, traveling as a family of three (my wife, our 20-year-old son, and myself), and we can say without hesitation that it was the trip of our lives.
Our 15-day journey took us across three incredible countries, starting in Windhoek (Namibia) and continuing through the majestic dunes of Sossusvlei, the coastal charm of Swakopmund and Walvis Bay, the ancient landscapes of Damaraland, and the wildlife-rich Etosha National Park. From there, we traveled along the Okavango River (Divava) into Botswana for an amazing experience in the Okavango Delta, stopped at Elephant Sands, explored the abundant elephant herds of Chobe National Park, and concluded at the spectacular Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe). Every single day was filled with awe-inspiring wildlife, striking scenery, and seamless hospitality.
We booked our tour only a few months before our departure date, which could have been stressful, but Pamela and Sharon in the tour office made the entire process effortless.
Pamela was exceptionally quick to respond to every single inquiry we had. Because we booked on relatively short notice, a few of the original accommodations were already full. Pamela handled this brilliantly: she presented fantastic alternative lodges that exceeded our expectations, remaining 100% transparent about any costs involved throughout the planning stage.
What impressed us even further was that Pamela stayed in touch with us during the tour itself to ask for feedback and ensure everything was running smoothly. That proactive level of care and customer service made us feel completely supported from day one.
While the itinerary was magnificent, what truly elevated this holiday from great to unforgettable was our guide, Stanford.
Stanford started as our driver and guide, displaying immense knowledge about African wildlife, ecology, geography, and local culture. He was exceptionally kind, attentive, and consistently focused on our safety and comfort.
Over the course of 15 days together, Stanford became far more than just a guide: he became a genuine friend. So much so that we still keep in touch through the WhatsApp group we created for the four of us. We had endless, enriching conversations sharing details about our respective cultures, learning about the regions we were passing through, and discussing the wildlife around us. Yet, Stanford also possessed a rare instinct for knowing exactly when to give our family quiet moments to soak in the scenery and rest. He found the perfect balance between engaging companionship and personal space.
Furthermore, Stanford’s flexibility was second to none. Whenever we expressed interest in something along the road, he was always happy to make unscheduled stops, take small detours to check out sights not included in the original itinerary, or help us add extra local activities along the way. His "can-do" attitude made the entire adventure feel custom-tailored to us in real time.
Africa Zim Travel & Tours delivered outstanding value for money. Vehicles were spotless, every transfer was punctual, and the quality of accommodation, meals, and park inclusions was top-tier relative to the investment. Their organization and reliability were flawless from start to finish.
If you are planning an African safari we cannot recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours highly enough. Thank you to Pamela, Sharon, and above all, Stanford, for giving our family memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives!
An Unforgettable 15-Day Southern African Journey with Africa Zim Travel
We have just completed an incredible 15-day private tour from Windhoek, Namibia, to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, organised by Africa Zim Travel & Tours. It was a truly memorable journey through Namibia and Botswana, ending at the magnificent Victoria Falls.
The itinerary was exceptionally well designed, giving us a wonderful combination of deserts, wildlife, rivers, national parks and spectacular natural scenery. Over 15 days, we travelled through Windhoek, Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Damaraland, Etosha National Park, the Okavango River, the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park and Victoria Falls.
What impressed us most about Africa Zim Travel was the organisation and smooth execution of the entire journey. Despite the enormous distances involved and travelling through different countries and environments, everything worked remarkably well.
The combination of a carefully planned itinerary, excellent accommodation, private transportation, safari activities and a dedicated driver-guide made the trip very comfortable and enjoyable. The itinerary also gave us enough variety that every few days brought a completely different landscape and experience.
We would like to give a special thanks to driver cum guide Thobias. His professionalism, safe driving, good humour, patience and knowledge made a significant contribution to our enjoyment of the trip. Spending so many days together on the road, we could not have asked for a better driver and companion.
Thank you to Pamela and the entire Africa Zim Travel & Tours team for organising such a wonderful adventure. chosen, but a few stood out particularly for us.
Chobe Safari Lodge was superb, especially because of its beautiful location on the banks of the Chobe River, surrounded by wildlife and birdlife.
Etosha Safari Lodge was another favourite. The lodge was comfortable, spacious and beautifully situated just outside Etosha National Park, making it an excellent base for our safari.
We also particularly enjoyed our stay in Swakopmund. The Delight Swakopmund was comfortable, centrally located and provided an excellent base for exploring the town.

Better than expected
We were stunned to realise we had a private tour. Just the 2 of us and our guide, Charity. We spent 8 days being chauffeured around and taken to some of the beast eateries in the evenings. Charity knew them everywhere we went.
Can't say enough about Charity. She was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Anything we wanted to do, she was more than happy to help arrange. Her recommendations for dining were superb and her local knowledge amazing. We learnt so much from her.
Would definitely recommend Africa Zim to anyone considering Zimbabwe and Botswana and we would absolutely use them for another tour.
Expert travel agency - great private tours arranged for fair price
We used Africa Zim for a recent holiday and they are very credible. They arranged private tours and guides for my family with good flexibility and great service. They helped us through any small issues and guided our border crossings and provided local recommendations for food and visits. I liked Kudzie our private guide and recommend you ask for him. You will be very safe and at ease with their service. I was surprised at how safe the experience was, far safer than my home city in the Midwest America. And the animals you will see are beyond the imagination our guide helped spot lion cubs and their mother, rhinos in Zambia, herds of elephants and hippos. You will fall in love with Africa and in love with this travel agency.
Africa Zim was an incredible team - highly trusted, super friendly and very knowledgeable
We had an incredible time with Africa Zim team they arranged a perfectly scheduled and rich experience for us. Our family of 6 including a 10 yr and 16 yr old had the most magical adventure we always dreamed of. Pamela and Sharon worked closely with us to schedule the trip and delightful and our driver & tour guide Kudzie was kind and very competent. We went to local places and the tourist highlights. Chobe visit could easily be 2-3 days with the land and boat safari, Hwange was further but my favorite as it was even more of a local destination. Go to Miombo safari lodge in Hwange and you will love the more rustic and local safari - Tok is the best guide. I can’t say enough about Africa Zim team but they are trusted and very efficient and kind.
