Friendly, helpful, enthusiastic & knowledgeable all for a very reasonable price :)
The experience of a lifetime!
May 2026
TL;DR - These guys are fantastic! We had a wonderful tour.
We went on safari to celebrate Michelle's birthday. We looked for mid range lodge/hotel accommodation in a small group shared tour and booked the 9 day Majestic Victoria Falls and Botswana Safari.
What we actually got was our own private tour with good accommodation and an overnight camping adventure all for a very reasonable price.
I found the itinerary advertised on Safari Bookings.com and then continued the booking process direct with Archie at Africa Uncovered Safaris. Archie was very helpful, answered any questions promptly and made the booking process straight forward. We had a bit of a hiccup during the tour, caused by us, not Africa Uncovered and Archie was able to help Tafara sort things out so we didn't miss out on anything.
Tafara was our guide for trip. From the moment he met us at Victoria Falls airport to dropping us at the Zambian border at the end of the trip, he really was a star. Everything was sorted for us and he made sure we were in the right place at the right time for all the activities included in the tour (and the optional extras we booked). His knowledge and enthusiasm really helped make the trip the success it was.
The trip was on a full board basis and Tafara took us to a variety of different restaurants along the way. We were never hungry!
Every day was an adventure. Included in the tour were morning and afternoon game drives in Chobe, an evening dinner cruise on the Zambezi, a safari cruise on the Chobe river, a guided walking tour of Victoria Falls, an overnight adventure in the Okavango Delta including two walking safaris and mokoro (dug out canoe) transport, a sunset game drive at Nata Bird Sanctuary and a game drive at Elephant Sands. Tafara also took us to the vulture feeding at Victoria Falls Safari Club as a bonus activity. Every single one of the activities was a great experience. We also opted to to do a helicopter flight over Victoria Falls (expensive but so worth it!) and a light aircraft flight over the Okavango Delta.
There was a lot of driving between locations but Tafara handled that expertly and always stopped to show us the animals by the side of the road (a lot of the time we were driving through national parks)
I don't think the 9 day trip is on offer at the moment but check with Archie and he might be able to come up with something similar. There is a 7 day trip available that looks similar.
Thankyou so much guys for making this a trip to remember :)

Relaxing in Botswana
I booked a 6-night 7-day safari with Africa Uncovered Safaris. My driver and main guide Muza took good care of me the whole time. We were off to a good start seeing a leopard cross the road on the way to Chobe National Park. I experienced lots of animal sitings, as well as camping and canoeing on the Okavango Mokoro. I have to say, the lodges were excellent - very comfortable and clean places to stay. Muza my guide was extremely experienced. He's been taking clients on Safaris for over 20 years. Overall, it was a top-notch experience.

Unforgettable experience, worth the last penny
Competent, great value for money, organised, thorough, friendly and supportive: the perfect safari agency when you want to travel hassle-free. We used their services for a 7-Day Botswana classic safari in January 2026 and Archie and the Africa Uncovered team really over delivered our expectations. Big shout-out to our field guide Norman, who made our journey unforgettable. Solid 5stars+/5, highly recommended.

Great Experience with Africa Uncovered Safaris
We had a great experience. Our agent (Archie Dzinetsa) communicated well, was accurate regarding their listing, reliable, and had great service. Our guide Musa was great. He was kind, communicated well, knowledgeable about the tours/animals/etc, and stayed with us the whole time to ensure we had a great experience.
We really enjoyed seeing the various tours and opportunities to experience nature (boat cruise, land drive, Mokoro rides, etc.). We are thankful to have chosen this company as we crossed paths with another couple who were having issues with their tour company. Our trip was a blast and that is due to the itinerary done by Archie and Musa.
Of note we did a tour from Victoria falls that ended in Maun with a couple days in the Okavango Delta. Would recommend and would do it again with the same company

Efficiency, preparation, kindness and very personal touch.
Since the moment we decided to ask for a quote, Africa Uncovered Safaris established an excellent communication. They answered all our questions about the schedule for the 5 days safari and accommodated all our experiences based on our time of arrival and departure. Archie, the owner of the company, has been always very responsive and reliable, in all circumstances.
We had the pleasure to spend 5 days with Tafara, the gentleman who showed us the different beautiful sites around Victoria Falls. He was officially our 'guide' but our relationship went behind this label. We were able to establish a relationship framed on reciprocal estime, respect and friendship. With his kindness, sincerity and open mind, he added a bigger value to any experience we had and to any place we visited.
Our activities were the following: Boma dinner; sunset dinner on the Zambesi river; Victoria Falls tour; Painted dogs rescue village; Hwange National Park; a Shona village and more. Our accommodations were amazing and all meals very delicious. We had serval encounters with the parks' fauna: elephants; zebras; crocodile; giraffes; rhino; vultures; impalas; storks; and more.
If you are thinking to explore that part of Zimbabwe, I would strongly recommend Africa Uncovered Safaris and its team.

Highly organised, efficient and lots of fun!
We did the 9 day majestic Zimbabwe and Botswana wildlife tour and enjoyed every single second! Our guide, Norman, and our driver, Simba, were simply the best travel companions! They were attentive to anything we needed, thoughtful, knowledgeable, efficient, always smiling and laughing and lots of fun. The hotels were all amazing - always clean and spotless with wonderful breakfasts and fabulous grounds and gardens. Every restaurant we ate at was different and they all had delicious food. And the game drives and boat cruises were absolutely enchanting! We saw so many different and wonderful animals - we felt very privileged. So thank you Africa Uncovered Safaris for making this trip so incredibly wonderful.

Very knowledgeable, aimed at providing the best experience possible. More detail in advance is good.
We’ve been back a couple of weeks and have had time to digest our trip with Africa Uncovered Safaris. It was only after talking about the trip with others that we realized how special and unique it felt to us. The connection to the habitat of the places we visited – Chobe River, Chobe National Park, the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, camping in the Okavango Delta – was remarkable. One of the words that comes to mind is unscripted. You’re not guaranteed to see anything, yet I felt we experienced everything. On our evening bush walk camping in the Okavango Delta (which we arrived at via an amazing ride in a canoe known as a mokoro), we were guided through the brush by extremely knowledgeable guides, including Muza, our guide from Africa Uncovered, who was with us the entire time. As we were returning, our lead guide let us know we wouldn’t return to the campsite yet as it was surrounded by elephants – which we could see from where we were standing. As the sun was setting, we waited, patiently, as our guides determined the safest route to return to the campsite, once the elephants left. We were in good hands and at no point did it feel as if we were in danger. In fact, it was exhilarating, an authentic experience I never expected and will never forget. And this was one of many incredible experiences. Additionally, all the accommodations were lovely and extremely comfortable. Thanks to Muza and Africa Uncovered Safaris for providing such a wonderful memory.

Unforgetable!!!
The experience was fabulous. They answered all my questions from the start, including the payment link. It was reliable. On the day we arrived, they picked us up at the airport, and everything went smoothly. Norman (guide) and Simba (driver) were excellent; we felt very welcome, like family. They took care of even the smallest details throughout the trip and made our first visit to Africa an unforgettable experience.The hotels they choose were very good and
the food too, we were never hungry I would definitely use this tour operator again. Highly recommended!
