Mixed feelings
We booked through a platform and Hilmar then contacted us directly offering other tours which we would pay for on the day of the tours. He gave us prices for them but there were many hidden costs he hadn’t warned us about, which left us unprepared
Also, unlike all the other tour operators we had, he had not made contact with us up to the night before the tour despite multiple unanswered emails, what’s apps & attempted phone calls. This left us stressed and in limbo wondering whether the tours go ahead or should we book with another company. When he did eventually make contact, he said his phone hadn’t been working, which to us is unacceptable if one is trying to run a business. I presume he should have access to another phone and/or a computer/laptop from which he could check his emails and make contact with his clients. He did make a fleeting apology but I think a small attempt at compensation for stress due to lack of contact would have been a good PR move & greatly appreciated!!
The tours were very enjoyable….the helicopter ride was amazing as was the sunset river cruise & village tour.
Lunch at the lookout cafe was lovely but again, in contrast to other companies who provided a full 3 course lunch with tea/coffee, I felt that not including even a glass of water/cup of coffee, let alone starter or desert, with lunch was rather miserable & small minded.
The transfer vehicles, apart from Hilmar’s own car, and boat for the cruise also left a lot to be desired and could do with an upgrade, in comparison to other tours transport, considering the prices tourists pay and the tips we are expected to give!
Thank you Hilmar. Overall had a lovely day but don’t think that I would recommend or book with Dream Holiday Vacations should I return to Victoria Falls

A day to remember
The whole package was great. We were looked after very well, got loads of information about the falls. The views from the helicopter were worth it and the views from the lunch venue were also beautiful.

Professional and Fun! Thank you, Hilmar!
Thank youVacations for making our 3-night stay in Victoria Falls a wonderful experience! Hilmar was an excellent host and guide. Communication was efficient and professional at all times. Hilmar is friendly, knowledgeable, patient and always keen to assist. Hilmar organised activities to suit our preferences and always made sure we were at the right place at the right time. During our time in Victoria Falls we did the following activities - Walking Tour of Victoria Falls, Helicopter flight over the falls, Boma Dinner, Cycle Tour (around Chinotimba, along Zambezi River Drive, across the bridge to Zambia), Sunset river cruise on the Zambezi River and a visit to Chammabondo Primary School. All activities were well organised, safe and very enjoyable. Hilmar escorted us from our hotel to every activity - he wanted to make sure we were well looked after!
All in all, we would highly recommend Dream Africa Vacations for your stay at Victoria Falls.
