Well organised
I found Forche Tours from a TripAdvisor post raving about their experience and now we understand why. Everything was arranged via emails and WhatsApp, Fortune organised our helicopter tour and sunset/dinner cruise and communicated every step of the way. Would highly recommend Forche Tours to anyone visiting Zimbabwe

Competent and very helpful partner for traveling
We booked an individual tour in and around VicFalls and everything was organized perfectly. The owner Fortune was available 24/7 and took care of my mom and me excellent. It was one of the best personal service I had in my 25 years travel experience and I can highly recommend Forche Tours. Thanks again for your wonderful help and organizing an unforgettable trip for us.

Excellent Job
We used Forche Tours in Zimbabwe on the recommendation of a long time trusted friend and guide in Botswana. Fortune was our guide and took care of every detail. We had booked a departing flight ourselves that was cancelled and we had been trying to reschedule for several days. We didn't want to lose our time at Victoria Falls. Fortune took my friend's credit card and was able to get us new flights. We were saved a huge headache and able to enjoy our day in Victoria Falls. Fortune also got us tables at great restaurants, took the shopper in our group shopping - we all had a great time. Our guide also had extensive knowledge and information about Zimbabwe and the City and the wildlife we saw on the trip. Excellent service, honest and trustworthy.

Forche Tours and Travel go an extra mile.
We booked a day trip to Hwange National Park. The services were delivered as expected and flawless. Fortune is very helpful and gets out of his way to help his guests eventhough it is not part of the services he offers. We highly recommend his travel company.

Extremely Knowledgeable about touring Africa, an excellent tour guide.
Forche's worked in partnership with us from the booking of our tour to the end of the tour. He booked excellent hotels and lodges for us to stay in. The tours were outstanding, we felt safe and at ease with our tour guides. They were good communicators and shared with us the history of South Africa Cape town, Botswana, Zambia and Zimbabwe. All we can say is thank you to Forche Tours for making our holiday an experience of a life time.

Fortune, our tour operator was genuine and kind.
When we arrived to Zimbabwe, we were panicked because we had just learned that our flight from Vic Falls to Joburg had been cancelled, and we were having an impossible time getting another flight. Our guide assisted us in getting another flight while he insisted we visit the falls and enjoy the end of our vacation. He came through by thinking outside of the box! We got a return flight from Zambia which was a short drive away. He helped us get through the border and made arrangements for a driver to get us to the airport.
Fortune was a lovely, trustworthy man that we will never forget.

Invaluable
My group had been on a two-week safari and while we were out of touch, our flight back to Johannesburg had been cancelled. When our guide, Fortune, picked us up we told him of our difficulties in finding another flight and he took over the search for flights while we toured Victoria Falls. Not only did he find us a flight, but he drove us wherever we wanted to go and have us interesting facts about the area, the animals, the people. He was very kind and very friendly!

He was the best ever…would give him 20 stars if I could. Incredibly friendly, helpful, knowledgeable
Fortune was our guide and he exceeded being amazing. He went way above and beyond to help us out of a flight cancellation situation…took all of the stress out of it and took care of it while we enjoyed a fabulous lunch at a place with the best views you will ever see…near Victoria Falls. He graciously took care of our every need and his recommendations were awesome. We felt like we were with a good friend after a short time with him. He was extremely knowledgeable, helpful in every way and a great pleasure to spend time with. I can’t recommend this company enough…it will exceed your every expectation.

Great
I gave the wrong date when I initially booked the Chobe Day Tour and didn’t realize it until I called Fortune to ask where he was…he was very understanding and booked me the next day. The tour went off without a hitch - many thanks to Fortune!

Exceptional Service
Fortune our tour operator from Forche Tours made our holiday arrangements smooth and well organised, communication with Fortune was very good he returned our calls and emails promptly everything was organised via emails and phone. Fortune made all our bookings for hotels excursions and transportation. When we arrived in Zimbabwe our vehicle was waiting to take us to the hotel Fortune made all the bookings for our party of 6 people our first evening we went to the Boma Restaurant to experience the local food and culture, the next day we went to Victoria Falls and had a Helicopter ride well worth doing, on the evening we went on the sunset dinner cruise on the river absolutely beautiful, other tours included Safaris in Botswana and enjoying the locals restaurants like The Look Out Restaurant in Zimbabwe was amazing. We crossed over the border to Zambia for the steam train experience if you want to do the train make sure to have the 5 course meal. Be prepared to pay for the visas when your in Africa Forche Tours made sure it went smoothly and the mini buses were waiting for us the other side of the border to continue the tours. Overall we had a fantastic holiday that was good value for money thanks to Fortune and his team.
