Good genuine locally based budget tour operator
Marvel runs serious fun tours and was brilliant helping us to organise our trip to Zimbabwe and Botswana. He was very accommodating with my requests and maintained good communication. We spent 5 nights in victoria falls, 2 nights in Hwange, 1 night back in vic falls and 2 nights in Chobe. The overall cost was similar to if I had organised each of the activities myself so it was good value for money, as we had the added reassurance of dealing with 1 company. It was also important to me to use a locally based company so the money is going direct to local Zim people. Marvel also provided us with a driver throughout so when we wanted to stop off at the supermarket or go out for dinner they drove us at no extra cost. Our driver was often Busani who was really helpful. Marvel also helped us out collecting lost luggage from the airport at no extra cost. The guides used for Hwange and Chobe were excellent. The company used for the Chobe camping trip wasn't brilliant but Chobe park itself made up for it, as it's beautiful and we saw so much wildlife including 100s of elephants, hippos, buffalos, crocs, giraffes, antelope, lion and a leopard! Camping was also fun (if you like camping and are used to it - this is not luxury camping). We didn't see so much wildlife in Hwange i think because of the time of year but for us it was interesting to drive out of vic falls and see some of the Zim countryside, plus we did see elephants, antelope, giraffes, zebra, hippos, hyena and a cheetah! There are so many activities in vic falls so it's really about what you want to see. I wanted my kids to see rhino's, as this was unlikely anywhere else and we went with wild horizons for the elephant encounter as they had better reviews than other companies and it was an amazing thing for the kids to do. We also did the hike down the gorge and saw the falls from a different perspective which was amazing. You do need to be of good fitness and not to be scared of heights though! Our kids are 11 and 13 and they loved it, I wouldn't recommend for younger kids. Marvel took us out to a local village which was also really interesting and good for the kids to see how differently people live. Of course the best thing was seeing the falls, which is absolutely spectacular. We didn't do a guided tour as we just wanted to do it at our own pace and take it all in, we had lunch there and went back to our favourite spots again after lunch as it's a once in a lifetime experience! Overall I would recommend Serious fun tours as a budget option, it was good value for money, they were genuinely lovely people and we had an amazing holiday.

Amazing Tour!
I had the most incredible experience on my tour through Botswana and Zimbabwe with our guide, Marvel. From start to finish, everything was truly amazing. Marvel went above and beyond to make sure our trip was exactly what we wanted – he listened carefully to our wishes and managed to realize every single one of them. Thanks to him, we were able to fully enjoy the beauty, wildlife, and culture of both countries without a single worry. I cannot recommend Marvel highly enough – he truly made this adventure a dream come true!

Great diversity in the offers and best prices of Victoria Falls
I highly recommend the 3 days/2 nights Chobe camping trip in Botswana with Victoria Falls Serious Fun. The safari was very well organized and included one boat cruise, one very good meal in a 4 stars hotel on the first day, traditional Botswanan meals on the camping site, and several game drives in Chobe national Park, with friendly and very knowledgeable professional guides, and all of that at an unbeatable price! Many thanks to Marvel Nyathi and Janice for providing such a great service at a very reasonable price!

Friendly and well organised stay in Victoria Falls.
Marvel and his team organised an exceptional value-for-money tour for us in Victoria Falls. All the activities were thoroughly enjoyable, and the accommodations were comfortable. Notable highlights included the helicopter tour of the Falls and our visit to the Chobe Game Reserve.

Great variety of activities, friendly and professional staff
We had the best trip thanks to Marvel and his team! They arranged everything from multiple safaris in two different locations, a Victoria Falls hike, helicopter tour, Boma dinner and sunset cruise, to all hotels and transport between locations. All of the guides they booked us with were incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Highly suggest them for anyone looking for a more budget-friendly customized itinerary.

Reliable and Very Professional
I booked a last minute trip to Chobe National Park- half day safari. The trip start on time and the immigration assistant in Zimbabwe and Botswana went very smooth. Highly recommend. Chobe National Park in Botwana has really lot of animal to see. We been as well to Kruger National Park and Pilanesberg National Park but I think Chobe National park is more wilder than the other two.

This was just the tour we were looking for!
From our first inquiry throughout the entire planning Marvel was prompt in answering any and all questions we had. When we arrived at the airport, he was there to greet us, along with Busani, to escort us to our resort. This tour not only took us to Victoria Falls, which was breathtaking, but also to Chobe National Park and Hwange National Park. We saw most of the Big Five plus many other animals along with a lot of beautiful birds. The knowledgeable guides told many facts about wildlife and also pointed out tracks during our walking safari. Marvel made sure things were going smoothly during our stay, and Busani made sure we arrived everywhere on time. The resort was beautiful and the food was plentiful and delicious. Our lodge at Hwange was also very nice. Busani even made an extra stop at the market on the way back to the airport because I wanted to make one more purchase. I would not hesitate to recommend Victoria Falls Serious Fun Tours and Travel for your next adventure!

Smooth arrangement and instant assistance for our trip in Victorian Falls and Hwange Park.
I recently enjoyed an unforgettable vacation in Victoria Falls, expertly arranged by Marvel. He really took my budget and expectations into consideration. The safari in Hwange Park offered breathtaking wildlife encounters, the white-water rafting on the Zambezi River was exhilarating, and dining at local restaurants provided a delightful taste of Zimbabwean culture. I highly recommend Marvel for crafting such a seamless and memorable adventure.

Very friendly and great communicator
Day trip to Hwange National Park, the whole experience was amazing. Was an early start from Victoria Falls to Hwange, our driver was fantastic and kept us safe on the roads. That was an experience as sections of the road had deep pot holes, and sections were left unfinished. Shame really as the journey took 3 hours when should really be around 2.
The safari was amazing, it was a truly amazing experience and felt like being in the heart of where wild animals live.
If you're looking for a truly African safari I would highly recommend Hwange.

Very professional and helpful
We had such an amazing time holidaying in Victoria Falls. Our operator, Melverl was very helpful and stayed on top of things all the time. Everything was in order and ready for us before we got to Zimbabwe, and made our holiday an unforgettable experience.
Highly recommended for anyone looking to connect with nature and create lasting memories!
