The tour operator was efficient and planned our trip extremely well, ensuring our needs were met.
We booked a 9-day tour so we had several guides throughout our stay in Africa. All guides were well informed and very pleasant. We saw the Big 5 and the Ugly 5! We were beyond excited about each of our game drives! The lodges we stayed at were gorgeous and extremely comfortable. Camping for 5 nights was definitely an adventure but the beds were comfortable and we had en-suite restrooms with our tents. The Camp staff were amazing! Food was always delicious and our accommodations were always comfortable. I have never slept that well! The cost was what we expected and was reasonable for our accommodations throughout the 9-day tour. Thank you for the experience!

Very well coordinated tour!
The tour was very well organised and very well coordinated…
Replies to our queries were very prompt and they will update us on the pick up time for the following day..
We were very well taken care of right from the time we landed.
The accommodation provided was clean and comfortable.
The lunch and dinner included in the package was luxurious!
The guides helped us through numerous boarder crossings.. and when they realised we might be in a bit rush to get to airport, due to longer than usual queue at the crossing …they specially arranged another vehicle just to make sure we get to the airport in time..
We love all the guides we met..
Special Thanks to Blessing who who picked us up and coordinated our departure..
Pretty Ms Delphister from Zambia side who pointed out the best picture spots..
Vusi ( Botswana safari ) - he’s the best! We saw a cheetah and 2 lioness and a lion.. he really took pride in his job!
We’ll really recommend this tour …

Extremely courteous and accommodating. The office was very responsive. Our driver Brown excellent.
The itinerary through South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana was great. Our accommodation, and the driver Brown were all excellent. The safari guides in Hwange, Victoria Falls, Chobe, Elephant Sands, Planet Boabob and Maun/Moremi area were great. Our food options were great and the staff were all excellent. The only challenge were the road conditions that are outside the control of the tour organizer, the government would be prudent to focus on fixing the roads to help the tourism thrive.

Good Experience visiting Victoria Falls Both Sides
Tatenda is very responsive and answers all my questions quickly, which is very helpful in trip planning. We were picked up at the airport and later visited Victoria falls on both sides, which is smooth. Both Mr Brown on the Zimbabwe side and Delphister from Zambia were great in taking us through various viewpoints and help us take great pictures. The two sides offer different experiences and we highly recommend visiting both sides!
Efficient, trustworthy, enthusiastic, and helpful
The accommodations were exceptionally clean and had wonderful breakfasts. The trip might have seemed at the onset toward the more pricey side but the experiences were priceless and once on the vacation there was nothing to “worry about” as everything timing wise was taken care of by very professionally trained operators. Always felt safe, cared for, and comfortable!

Great experience
Great tour. Definitely worth a visit to both sides of Victoria falls. I was lucky to have both Brown on the Zimbabwe side and Lucky on the Zambia side. Seamless entry via the immigration with both guides helping out. (Don’t forget to get the Kaza visa if you are looking to do this and a safari in Chobe)
Great detail given about the falls from both guides throughout.
We saw some people walking the bridge and the long walk to the other side. Lots of vehicles and big trucks on that dirt track, so having a vehicle pick us up on both sides (with air con and water) was just perfect.
Brown took us to the ‘Big Tree’ on the way back to our hotel, a 1200 year old Baobab tree. We even saw elephants, monkeys and other wildlife on the way/ way back to our hotel.
Me and my wife both felt very much at ease with both guides who helped takes photos of us constantly on both tours and gave us how long we wanted at every view point.
Ponchos were provided as well, which were very much needed when we went, as it was the season of high water, so a lot of spray.
These guys were great and I highly recommend them.

Very knowledgeable, informative, and friendly!
Perfect tour of both sides of falls with Thuba and Mike. Could not have been better!

Thuba was an absolute gem - great sense of humor and knowledge. Would highly recommend!!
Thuba was 100% on time and he's winning personality immediately made us feel comfortable. From the moment we stepped in his until the moment he dropped us off, we had a thoroughly enjoyable time. His skill as guide was magnificent!!

Very smooth and informative from pick up to drop off
Ben, Brown and Lucky were very warm and kind and I’d highly recommend the tour which made it possible for us to see the majesty of the falls in the short time we were in Livingstone …. from going through immigrations to the rain in falls :).
Thank you very much
