Amazing Zimbabwe and Botswana camping experience, fantastic value!!
5/5

My partner and I did the 9 day budget camping tour from Victoria Falls to the Okavango Delta. Such an unreal experience, would absolutely recommend. There is a fantastic balance of activities and time to relax, in our opinion.

Our primary guide Francis was super welcoming, he had so much knowledge that he was happy to share with us. He really made the experience more fun and engaging. We learnt so much about all the animals and environment along with the culture of Zimbabwe and Botswana. Really can't thank Francis enough for his guidance.

The activities were exactly as outlined, plenty of safaris in which we saw all the animals we were hoping to see! Even though we didn't make any changes to the itinerary, we felt like there was plenty of flexibility if we wanted to adjust anything. Biggest highlight of this tour was definitely camping in the Delta, it's something everyone has got to try.

A few of the activities are booked with the local tour operators at each specific location, and we found the handover/communication with some of them to be a bit lacking, (i.e. pickup times not being provided to us until a few hours before), however, everything went according to plan, so it's really just about trusting the process. The team at Zambezi were welcoming and very responsive prior and during our tour.

We highly recommend this experience, especially if you are looking for a budget option. The team at Zambezi are awesome and will provide you with such an awesome tour!

Unforgettable African experience!
5/5

We planned our 8-day tour by email exchanges with Silence several months before our trip. Silence was very kind and responsive, promptly answering our questions and addressing our concerns.

Upon arrival in Victoria Falls, everything was perfect! The falls were amazing, and we enjoyed all the activites there. We then moved to Kasane, where the safari game drives were fantastic, and the Chobe River cruise exceeded our expectations, providing us with unforgettable moments.

Our stop at Elephant Sands was a tranquil oasis, allowing us to recharge before venturing into the Okavango Delta. The Delta was the highlight of our trip, surpassing our expectations and evoking strong emotions. We loved to be immerse in the wilderness, camping with only the essentials, and experiencing the raw beauty of nature.

Francis, our guide, was discreet, professional, and friendly, making him the perfect companion. We enjoyed talking about Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and wildlife with him, and really appreciated the opportunity to share dinner together. Dear Francis, we hope to share other adventures with you in the future :)
In the Okavango, SP and his team from the local community were attentive and kind, showing us the incredible beauty of the region.

We already miss Africa. Thank you for making our journey unforgettable.

Amazing safari experience in Chobe National park
5/5

Me and my wife planned a safari tour in Botsuana for our honey moon and we found on the internet good reviews about Zambezi expeditions. For sure was the best decision we could make cause everything was so well organized. We booked for the 3 days tour to visit Chobe and stay in the national park.

Thanks to all the team, we felt really confortable with the planning and the activities.

Especial mention to Francis, our driver from Victoria Falls to Chobe, thank you!

Highly recommended.

Amazing trip - super well organized
5/5

Coming from Cape Town I was looking for a tour operator to see the Vic Falls, Chobe and Okavango. It was really well organized, the team is very nice and the communication was superb. I can 100% recommend booking them.

Outstanding service and offerings were provided for multiple excursions and with flexibility.
5/5

Our tour operator had booked several excursions in advance from Zambezi Expeditions which we added to and altered during our stay in Victoria Falls. Every single driver, guide and, especially, Oscar coordinating it all, were wonderful. We felt like no question was unanswered and all programs were the highest quality . We are especially grateful for the last minute adjustment and addition of a Livingstone cultural day including Makuni Village in Zambia. To be honest, we wish we had worked directly with Zambezi Expedition Travel right from the beginning instead of our original operators.

We thank them from the bottom of our hearts for memorable moments and laughter and wonderful service.

Incredible trip organized by an incredible team!
5/5

Oscar and his team at Zambezi organized a fantastic tour for us! We saw amazing wildlife, the accommodations were nicer than expected, and the food was great. Oscar is a phenomenal communicator - always available before and during the tour. He and his team were friendly and professional. We ended up wanting to adjust our itinerary to include more game drives, and Oscar and his team were able to do this midway through our trip for a reasonable price. Finally, we had a blast getting to know our driver, Francis. He is a wonderful guy!

Invested in their guest's experience!
5/5

Zambezi worked with us each step of the way to ensure that we had the most memorable and amazing trip through Botswana. Our guide, Francis was super kind, welcoming and informative. Zambezi staff went the extra mile to make our stay meet all of our expectations, and we are super appreciative. Francis even went out of his way to introduce us to different indigenous fruits during the long drive!

Very professional with personalised and caring service
5/5

I would like to give more than 5 stars.

It was our first safari experience and everything impressed us, but without a doubt what made the experience better was having done the Games with Zambezi Expedition Travel and Tours.

From the beginning we felt welcomed and given all the necessary information for beginners :).

Even during the trip, when we decided to adapt the itinerary to do a longer Game, Zambezi Expedition supported us and left everything prepared.

The entire staff was very professional and caring, but I would especially like to thank Nkosi, our driver who was super cheerful and willing. Silence who left everything well prepared. And Oscar who managed to adapt our tour according to our wishes.

We will definitely be back.
