On top of all the details!
5/5

Lynn was amazing getting everything set up for our safari. There was a specific river cruise I wanted to go on and she was able to hold a date while we confirmed evening at home. She was sure to send us all the information as needed and knew the billing schedule. We appreciated the deal with the travel insurance as well. Would highly recommend working with safari.com to create your dream safari!

Absolutely incredible experience in Kenya, Zimbabwe and South Africa!
5/5

Mel took care of us from the word go. She answered all of our questions when we started doing research for our safari, and believe me, we had a lot of questions. We wanted to see all the animals we could and we didn't want to have to drive long distances to get to animal preserves. Our boutique stay in Zimbabwe was incredible. Since we requested two beds, they put us up in their 2 bedroom bungalow. It was so beautiful and absolutely perfect. Victoria Falls is just so amazing to experience in person. Our safari stays in Kenya and South Africa were so amazing. We saw lions, leopards, elephants, zebra, baboons, giraffe, rhinos, hippos and cheetahs, not to mentions tons of hooved animals and birds. The guides are trackers were so patient and wonderful with us. I highly recommend Governor's Camp and Simbavati River Lodge. This was a once in a lifetime trip, if it is for you, go big and stay at the nice places and fly in between locations. Spending hours and hours driving between locations would suck big time. We compared several companies and Safari.com came out the winner by a landslide. I fully recommend them for all of your Africa travel needs.

A seamless yet unforgettable vacation.
5/5

Our safari experience in Sabi Sands was truly unforgettable, and a huge part of that was thanks to our trip planner. From start to finish, everything was organized seamlessly, making what could have been a complicated journey feel effortless. Despite the long travel required to reach the reserve, every detail was thoughtfully arranged and everything went exactly according to plan. The safari fit perfectly into our South Africa itinerary.

The resort that was selected for us exceeded all expectations. It was incredibly luxurious while still feeling warm and personal. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and their hospitality was exceptional throughout our stay. Every member of the team made the experience feel special and tailored to us.

The safari guides and staff were extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecosystem, which made every game drive both exciting and educational. We were fortunate enough to see an incredible variety of animals during our time in the reserve, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

We are so grateful for the care and expertise that went into planning this trip. It was the perfect combination of adventure, luxury, and seamless logistics, and we would highly recommend both the trip planner and this experience to anyone considering a safari in South Africa.

Our travel angel!
5/5

From day one of planning our anniversary vacation to the end of our anniversary vacation, Ms. Leigh-Ann Croeser was absolutely wonderful. She was our travel angel. While on our trip we lost our luggages and she was making calls to the airlines and getting information for us to help us out so we wouldn’t have to stress while on vacation. She went above and beyond for us. Any questions we had she would respond almost immediately. She was so patient with us and so caring. She always answered my calls and her voice was so soothing and thoughtful. You can tell she loves what she does and she wanted us to have an amazing experience. She always made sure that our tours and resorts were up to par. She even went as far as letting the resorts know that our luggage was missing so they could accommodate us with essentials. The resorts even provided their uniform for us to use. We are so grateful that we found the best travel agent! I highly recommend to book through Safari if you want to have an otherworldly experience.

Leigh-Ann listed and put together a perfect package for me.
5/5

When I decided to add Victoria Falls to my already booked itinerary in South Africa, I researched several companies and I'm so glad I chose Safari.com. Leigh-Ann listened to what we wanted and gave us several package options of various prices and itineraries.

We choose to stay at Avani, which was so amazing with zebras, giraffes, monkeys and impala roaming all around the grounds! It also was a 5 minute walk to to Victoria Falls and the locals curio shops with handmade items. Full breakfast was included at Avani with a great selection. The staff was so friendly!

A BOMA dinner was suggested and was awesome to see African music, dance and drumming.

The sunset cruise was beautiful and relaxing. The hippos put on a show for us.

Leigh-Ann also set us up for a guided walking tour of both sides of the falls, with an option to return as much as we wanted. I was glad to have the guide for the first time as he was not only knowledgeable but provided me with a much needed rain coat!

Unfortunately my friend had a family emergency and had to return home before we even got to Zambia. When I contacted Leigh-Ann she was very quick to respond and understood my concern of traveling alone. That anxiety quickly went away as soon as I arrived. Everyone was so friendly and I never felt afraid.

Leigh-Ann was so good at listening to what we wanted, our budget, was always quick to respond to every question and calmed me when I realized I'd be traveling alone.

I highly recommend Safari.com for your visit to Victoria Falls!

A Life-Changing Safari — Beyond Every Expectation
5/5

There are trips you take, and then there are trips that change you. Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge is unequivocally the latter.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear this was no ordinary safari lodge. The team had an almost uncanny ability to anticipate every need before it was even expressed — a cold towel here, a perfectly timed sundowner there, a room detail personalized just for us. The staff don't just provide service; they provide presence, and that makes all the difference.

The food deserves its own accolade. Every meal was an event — fresh, inventive, and beautifully presented, whether served under the open sky or around a boma fire. It elevated what could have been a "nice camp meal" into something truly memorable.

But the real magic happened out in the bush. Our ranger and tracker were, without exaggeration, extraordinary. Their knowledge runs impossibly deep — we tracked and spotted all of the Big 5, which alone felt like a miracle, but that was just the beginning. They decoded the language of the bush for us: the medicinal secrets of plants most people would walk past without a second glance, the stories written in animal tracks, and at night, the vast, uninterrupted African sky — they turned a canopy of stars into a living astronomy lesson. We came home knowing more about this planet than we ever expected to.

Beyond the wildlife, beyond the food, beyond the flawless service — Sabi Sabi gave us something rarer: a genuine sense of wonder. It rekindled curiosity I didn't know had gone quiet.

A special mention must go to Safari.com and our consultant Candis, who made the entire journey seamless from the very first conversation. No hidden fees, no last-minute surprises, no stress — just thoughtful, expert planning that let us be fully present for every incredible moment. If you want a safari done right, start with them.

If you are even remotely considering it — go. Don't hesitate, don't wait for the "right time." Sabi Sabi Bush Lodge is, without question, the most extraordinary experience of my life.
