Three-day Victoria Falls Tour & Safari
For my birthday my mom and I decided to take a short trip to Botswana, do a half-day safari tour and then visit Victoria Falls. It was difficult trying to plan the trip on my own, so I reached out to Vayeni and spoke with Mel who helped plan the entire trip. Not only did we finally see lions on our safari, but we actually had a chance to pet and walk with them at the Lion Encounter, followed by the private Elephant Encounter, and a evening luxury cruise on the Zambezi River. What a fabulous experience!! I cannot express enough the amazing time we had due to her insight, coordination and flexibility. Our experience is one that we will remember fondly for a lifetime, and the hospitality of the staff was wonderful. Many, many thanks, and I would strongly recommend this company to anyone interested in traveling there.

All I had to do was to show up, and Vayeni had taken it from there, perfectly according to my wishes
Before visiting Zimbabwe I discussed the best travel itenary and arrangements with Suzanne. She came up with the most fitting suggestion for my trip. From the moment I got off the plane, all was taken care of. Literally all I had to do was show up and enjoy the experience. It was a five day trip in Zimbabwe, and yet it felt like a 3 week holiday. Both because I returned so relaxed andbecause I had seen and done so much. One of my best trips ever!

What a perfect trip. Thanks Vayeni!
The itinerary that Suzanne put together for us was perfect. She really worked with me to find the right trip that fit within my budget. Communication was prompt and very professional, both from home during the planning and during the trip. It was my first trip to the area, so I really appreciated the thorough itinerary, contact numbers, transfers that made it easy for me to just enjoy. All of the places we stayed, were really nice and had incredible staff.

Excellent service and local knowledge
We have just returned from a holiday which was organised and booked by Suzanne at Vayeni securing better deals than we could have done directly. In addition from the beginning to end, Vayeni provided excellent service and Suzanne was incredibly patient at answering my endless questions very promptly which gave great reassurance when booking a trip from the UK. Highly recommended.

Amazing trip, perfect organization!
Traveling to Zimbabwe with Vayeni has been the best decision that we took. We have been for 3 weeks in the country and visited amazing places (Mana Pools, Hwange, Great Zimbabwe,Gonarezhou, Matopos, Vumba, Nyanga). Suzanne has been a star helping us with all the planning and organizing. She helped us making our dream trip come through, selecting hotels and campsites that were perfect for the group. Her professionality, her quick response to our requests has been extraordinary all along (before and during the trip). We recommend Vayeni to everyone who wants to visit Zimbabwe! Thanks Vayeni!

Professional and thorough
Safari was amazing. More than I expected. I had talked to two people who had been on a safari tour and they encouraged me to do it (I was on the fence because it is very expensive.) I am so glad we experienced a Safari at Hwange National Park. And the service at Bomani Tented Lodge was excellent.
Met at the airport and had door to door service for our five nights. Felt safe and comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed both safari and Victoria Falls.
