Knowledgeable, kind, proffesional, and punctual
5/5

Tongesai was the best tour guide we could’ve had. He was kind, punctual, and very knowledgeable about the history of Victoria falls. We initially planned on having Tongesai for only one day during our trip, but we ended up using his services for the duration of our trip because of how great his services were .

Highly Reliable Operator in Zimbawe
5/5

Mr Tongesai was very prompt and responsive in all email correspondences prior to the trip.

He was always punctual, and can be relied on for all your trip needs. We book our tickets through him. He is a local and cares for sustainable tourism in Victoria falls. The tour itself was superb, from game drives to the helicopter ride to the victoria falls , as well as the opportunity to experience the boma traditional dinner and dance. The cultural experience is phenomenal.

Highly recommend.

Friendly, organised and knowledgeable
5/5

Our time with Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours was excellent! Tongesai was very professional and friendly, making our time in Victoria Falls very relaxing and easy. Tongesai was always on time and highly organised. All transfers and travel between borders and the national parks were seamless and we felt very safe and looked after by Tongesai. Tongesai shared information about Victoria Falls and the town with us and his enthusiasm about showing people around was infectious. We’d highly recommend Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours to anyone visiting Victoria Falls!

Our experience with Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours was great! Tongesai was very friendly and ensured that we were comfortable throughout. He shared interesting information about the falls and region. Tongesai was prompt with his communication before and during the tour. He was always timely when collecting us from our accommodation. We would recommend Cultural Vibes to our friends.

The tour operator can make or break your trip. We had a 5 star operator. First class tour.
5/5

Our tour guide was always early to pick us up and a first class guy. The vehicles were clean and the operator was well connected in the community, which allowed us to make on the fly schedule changes. Victoria Falls is incredible on foot at the park as well as touring via helicopter. The tour operator arranged it all. You can’t do it by yourself. They arranged 5 star hotel for us to stay and have some meals. Everything was perfect. I would highly recommend this tour company and our tour.

Cultural Vibes was amazing. They picked us up from the airport, set up all of our tours and meals, and were amazing when we asked for things to be added to our schedule. Would definitely recommend booking with them!

Extremely organized, flexible and delivered a complete amazing tour.
5/5

I used Cultural Vibes to organize a tour for myself of Victoria Falls. Half of the activities were conducted by Cultural Vibes itself and the other were by operators hired by them. The best thing about the tour was their flexibility to meet my constantly changing requests. Tongesai had to build my tour not once, but twice due since I had to postpone my initial dates due to an injury. He always got back to me promptly and in the end everything worked out as expected, sometimes better.

Tongesai met me at the airport and took me to my lodgings at the Victoria Falls which lives up to its reputation for facilities and service. The breakfast and dinner buffets are exceptional in quality and selection. The first evening was a Zambezi river cruise which was beautiful.

On the first day contained an extremely interesting Elephant Interaction where I got to feed and touch an elephant. Later Tongesai took me around Victoria Falls which was as beautiful as advertised. I was there in September which meant the flow over the falls was at its minimum but Tongesai pointed out I could actually see them because there was no mist. That afternoon I walked around the town of Victoria Falls which has interesting shops, but a little less interesting.

On my second full day I started off with a game drive in Zambezi National Park which was a little less interesting than Kruger National Park, but the driver was excellent and fun to talk to. Later I took a helicopter ride over the falls which is worth every penny (especially when you get the front seat with the best view). That evening I went to the Boma dinner and cultural show which was outstanding both in food and entertainment.

The next day Tongesai took me over the border into Zambia where we were taken around by a Zambian guide. The Livingstone Museum is excellent for its history and nature collections, the rest of the town was less interesting and we didn't go to the Zambia side of the falls as I expected. On our return to Zimbabwe, Tongesai went out of his way to take me to the curio shops and helped me find a picture book of the falls I wanted.

The local village with its singing and dancing was more interesting. On my last full day Tongesai escorted me to the Botswana border where I was taken with another group on a tour of Chobe National Park which was simply the best day of animal spotting I had in two weeks. The numbers of elephant, hippos, tigers, giraffes and buffalo all gathering at the river is beyond description.

On my last day Tongesai took me to the airport where I easily made my flight on time.

In short, I was hoping for a trip of a lifetime and I got it. Everything that was promised was delivered and there were no disputes about money. I definitely recommend Cultural Vibes.
