Awesome
It was such an amazing experience from start to finish. Manuel did an amazing job planning our safari and was so responsive and helpful. Our driver arrived on time and was very personable. The tour guides did an amazing job ensuring we got to see everything. We even got lucky and saw the leopard, and while on the boat cruise, a herd of elephants started crossing the river right in front of us. It was such an amazing experience. Oh, and the lunch spot was delicious with such a wide spread buffet. We really don't have a single complaint. This trip was definitely one we'll never forget. We're very grateful for the whole team. Highly recommend.

Our wonderful guide Likhwa was always attentive and tried to make every day special for us.
Even before our trip, we were impressed by Exec Africa's good organisation and communication. Based on a suggested tour, we were able to easily change or add to the itinerary according to our wishes. Our guide Likhwa (Lee) introduced himself before the trip and then picked us up directly from the airport in Victoria Falls.
The hotels on our tour from Hwange to Maun were well chosen and all the planned tours/excursions were private (except the boat trip on the Chobe River) and took place as planned.
Maybe you can get this or a similar trip cheaper, but we were very satisfied with the trip and this was certainly due to the good organisation of Exec Africa.
Lee was very attentive and always tried to fulfil our wishes. In Maun, for example, we were given a room right behind the kitchen (including the smell and noise). We expressed our dissatisfaction about this in passing and he immediately endeavoured to change our room without being asked. He also always paid attention to whether we wanted to take a photo or just take a short break on the way.
Overall, our trip with all the tours was cleverly organised and therefore very varied.
We would therefore recommend Exec Africa and our guide Lee without reservation.

Highly recommended for nature lovers and first-time visitors.
The 8-day trip from Victoria Falls to the Okavango Delta with Exec Africa Travel and Tours was an unforgettable adventure. From the breathtaking power of Victoria Falls to the tranquil mokoro rides in the delta, each day brought new surprises. The itinerary was well-paced, combining wildlife safaris, cultural experiences and comfortable accommodation. Our guide Joseph was knowledgeable, friendly and ensured we felt safe and informed throughout the journey. Highlights included the wildlife of Chobe National Park, stunning sunsets and the peaceful remoteness of the delta. The transport was reliable and the food exceeded expectations. If you are looking for a balanced mix of adventure and relaxation in one of South Africa’s most iconic landscapes, then contact Exec Africa Travel and Tours. Highly recommended for nature lovers and first-time visitors.

Seamless, Stunning, and Soulful – Our 5-Day Journey Through Africa’s Wonders
My friend and I recently embarked on the 5-day Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park, and Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park Tour with Exec Africa Travel and Tours and we can confidently say it was one of the most unforgettable travel experiences we’ve ever had. From the very first inquiry to the final drop-off, the entire journey was seamless, exciting, and deeply enriching – all thanks to a truly outstanding team.
A special shout-out to Mr. Likhwa (Lee), our incredible tour guide whose warmth, knowledge, and professionalism elevated the entire trip. Lee wasn’t just a guide – he was a storyteller, a wildlife expert, a cultural ambassador and a genuinely great person to be around. Whether we were marveling at the thundering beauty of Victoria Falls, cruising along the Chobe River among elephants and hippos, or tracking white rhinos in Mosi-oa-Tunya, Lee's passion and attentiveness made every moment feel personal and profound.
Equally deserving of praise is Manuel, our reservations consultant, who ensured everything was meticulously organized before we even set foot on Zimbabwean soil. His communication was prompt and transparent, and he patiently worked with us to tailor the itinerary to our exact preferences. Payment confirmations, accommodation details, cross-border logistics – everything was handled smoothly and professionally. Manuel truly set the tone for the high level of service we were about to receive.
The accommodations were well-chosen, the transitions between Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Botswana were handled effortlessly and every single day was packed with awe-inspiring sights and enriching cultural interactions. We felt safe, informed, and genuinely cared for throughout the journey.
If you are dreaming of discovering Southern Africa’s natural wonders with a team that prioritizes excellence, authenticity, and attention to detail, look no further than Exec Africa Travel and Tours. Thank you, Lee and Manuel, for creating a travel memory we will cherish for a lifetime.

We had an unforgettable adventure!
We had an unforgettable adventure! From the dry plains of the Hwange to the lush wetlands of the Okavango Delta, each stop was unique. The Hwange and Chobe game drives were filled with elephant, lion, and even wildebeest sightings. Victoria Falls was a great mid-trip attraction, with stunning views and optional adrenaline activities. The Delta was a peaceful contrast - canoe rides, walking safaris, and great bird watching. The accommodations were of a high standard, a mix of comfort and closeness to nature. Our guide LEE made the trip special with his deep knowledge and attention to detail. The food and service exceeded expectations. The itinerary was well-paced and had a great mix of activities. A must do for wildlife lovers and first-time visitors to Africa. We would happily do it again.

An amazing and truly enjoyable tour with Exec Africa
Exec Africa has responded swiftly and professionally from the moment I requested for a quotation of 4-5 days tour of Victoria Falls and Chobe National Park via Safari Booking. Manuel has crafted a very well organized itinerary at reasonable cost.
Lee (Likwa), our guide for the 5 days in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Zambia was very responsible, punctual and informative. We thoroughly enjoyed our trips with him and would highly recommend him and Exec Africa

This 7 day adventure exceeded all expectations!
This 7 day adventure exceeded all expectations! From the moment we met our tour guide (Stanford) from Execute Africa Travel and Tours, we knew we were in good hands. His warmth and professionalism set the tone for us. We explored the wildlife-rich Chobe River, marveled at the majestic Victoria Falls, and ventured deep into Hwange National Park to see lions, elephants, and more. Stanford's knowledge of the parks and their ecosystems made every moment even more profound. The logistics were smooth, the accommodations were comfortable, and the pace of the trip was just right. Stanford's dedication and attention to detail made the experience smooth and memorable. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants an authentic, well-guided South African safari experience.

Fabulous in every way.
If you are planning a trip to Victoria Falls, I highly recommend booking with Exec Africa Travel and Tours. From an internet search, I inquired about possible activities and received many prompt, friendly and helpful emails from Manuel. He planned my trip including a pick up at the airport, a tour to Botswana, falls tours on both the Zimbabwean and Zambian side, a beautiful sunset cruise and dinner and a drop off at the airport. Of particular note was my driver Likhawa (Lee) who was friendly, knowledgeable and always helpful and who speaks excellent English.
My sincere thanks to Exec Africa and Tours who turned an internet search into a wonderful once in a lifetime experience.

Great friendly service, we felt so looked after!
From the planning stage to our actual holiday the communication from Exec African travel and tours was fantastic.
Manuel planned our itinerary so we got to experience everything we desired.
Our tour guide Lee was waiting at the airport and escorted us to our private air conditioned vehicle, with a cool bottle of water waiting. While driving to our accommodation he confirmed our evening activity Dinner on the Zambezi River and what time he would be picking us up. On arrival at our hotel he bought our suitcases to reception and made sure we had a smooth check in. We stayed at Dzimbahwe lodge Victoria Falls. The lodge was small and fairly basic but was a good base for our up coming activities. We had a swim then prepared for our sunset cruise on the Zambezi River. Lee picked us up and transferred us to the beautiful boat where we had an amazing dinner with beautiful wines cruising the Zambezi while seeing the wildlife in and around the river. Returning back to port Lee once again was waiting to take us back to our accommodation during this time he confirmed pick up time in the morning for our Chobe National Park Safari.
After an early breakfast Lee picked us up and transferred us to the Botswana border and handed us over to our Safari guide Cobra. After border formalities we enjoyed the Safari seeing many animals we had an included lunch at a very nice lodge then we enjoyed an afternoon cruise on the Chobe River, not as luxurious as our sunset cruise but very enjoyable. Coming back to the border once again Lee was there waiting for us to take us back to our lodge so we could prepare for our evening activity a special
BOMA Dinner and drum show. The food and entertainment were fantastic the only complaint that I had was that some people were smoking inside the eating area. Once again after our dinner/show our guide Lee was waiting for us to take us safely back to our lodge.
Day 3 we were up early for a morning walk around the falls followed by breakfast then off to do a helicopter ride over the falls, we then returned to our lodge freshened up where we then checked out and started our journey to Hwangi Safari Lodge after checking in to this beautiful lodge we had some lunch and a swim then went on an afternoon Safari adventure. Returning to enjoy the Lodges restaurant for dinner and well deserved sleep.
Day 4 after an early breakfast we had a full game drive with Lazarus he taught us about tracking animal prints and well we ended up having morning tea with a couple of lions that were hanging around a water hole, I had to pinch myself to check that this was really happening. Then off we went again to spot more animals, but returned to the water hole to enjoy watching our lions and a herd of elephants while enjoying our packed lunch. It was an amazing day!
We returned back to the lodge with time to freshen up and enjoy a cocktail before dinner. Lee joined us for dinner on the lawn and we enjoyed telling him about our wonderful safari and lunching with lions.
Sadly after breakfast we had to head back to Victoria Falls for our plane back to Johannesburg.
Lee was an intelligent guide and answered all our questions and was full of interesting information. We were very lucky to have such delightful person look after us, we felt like royalty.
Manuel from Exec African tours and travel coordinated our trip wonderfully I highly recommend this company. Great communication skills and they leave nothing to chance.
We were extremely happy with this part of our 3 week tour of Africa.

Our guide Lee was a lovely young gentleman who looked after us and communicated clearly, was friendly and informative and ensured we had a wonderful time. He was totally professional while engaging with us and answered all our questions as well s given us insight to the local lifestyle. He was EXCELLENT in every way . We had just come from a previous tour company where our guide was not at all helpful so we were delighted to receive the high standard of assistance from Lee and this much much better tour company.
From my very first interaction with Exec Africa from a quote to our last drop at the airport they were fantastic to deal with and totally recommend this company.
