High quality seamless safari

5/5

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

5/5

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

5/5

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!

Outstanding value for all a two week safari. Impressive!

5/5

Using Africa Uncovered Safaris for our 12 day holiday in Zimbabwe and Botswana was a priviledge. Thanks to the company’s Operation Manager , Archie, our trip was well organized. Never was there a glitch to our itinerary, accommodations, meals, game drives, cultural events.
There to ensure the success of these events was our personal guide, Tafara. His level of expertise was exceptional.
Local guides have been carefully selected to ensure responsible game viewing which enhanced our overall experience.
The price point for this safari was excellent for all that we received and experienced. We came home with a greater appreciation and understanding of Zimbabwe and Botswana.
Book with Africa Uncovered for your safari experience. You will NOT be disappointed!I

Fabulous trip with Africa Uncovered

5/5

Wow - what a fabulous trip that Africa Uncovered organized! My husband and I had such a wonderful time on the 7-Day Botswana Magic and Incredible Victoria Falls tour with our guide Norman. We learned so much about Botswana and Zimbabwe from him during the week and had such a grand adventure! From the game drives in Chobe, to the bush camping experience in the Okavango Delta, the trip was truly a dream come true. Everything was seamless and organized so well. We were grateful that Africa Uncovered offered an affordable safari experience that allowed us to check a travel dream off our bucket list that may otherwise not have been possible.

A couple of things that may be helpful to know: The trip includes all meals, which is a mix of hotel meals and meals out at restaurants that your guide will take you to. You can order anything off the menu, which was fabulous, excluding alcohol, which you would cover on your own. We were comfortable in all of the accommodations, which are mid-range, and particularly loved our time at Nata Lodge, which was a really unique room. While the drives from destination can be a bit long on some days on bumpy roads (about 4 hours from Chobe to Nata, and then Nata to Maun) we always had time in the afternoon to have lunch, relax a bit, and go on a game drive. Game drives were included in the trip every day (Chobe safari cruise, Chobe AM and PM game drives, game drive at the Nata Bird Sanctuary, mokoro and walking safaris in the Delta, and a game drive at Elephant Sands - so there are A LOT of opportunities to see wildlife. You'll also see animals from the car while driving - we saw a lion, elephants, zebras, giraffes, a sable, and numerous other things crossing the highway). We saw a number of other large tour groups doing similar itineraries, and I was so grateful to be in a small group with just my husband, Norman and I so that we could ask a lot questions and really get to know the country and culture. I highly recommend this trip and this company!
