Spectacular attention and very organized
Savannah Adventures officials are very professional. I arrived in Victoria Falls and was very well received at the airport. The other day they took me on a two-day safari in Chobe National Park in Botswana. The safari from another world! Many animals and extraordinary nature.
We slept in a campsite in the park. The food, the attention and the care of our guide was a great differential. Ahhh, we heard the sounds of the animals at night!!! Incredible!
Thanks to everyone from Savannah! Thanks Matthias!
We will return without a doubt!

Awesome
I came upon Savannah adventures through Safari Booking.com referral and I’m so glad I did. Mattias was my main contact source and he was wonderful with my many questions. Quickly responded via email. He arranged us a private Chobe national park tour, as well as an evening game drive with stargazing. Everything went well and was up to our high expectations. I would definitely give them five stars. Taj was our local contact and he was very good at making sure we were taking care of Victoria Falls. Thanks for the great time guys.

This is the best, everyone should try their moonlight Safari.
So we got picked at our hotel, we first went to the lookout cafe where the trip started. We were told about the Batoka Gorge by the tour guide, who is well acquainted with these things. We also visited the big tree and we got to taste his baobab gin, it was super cool! During the safari drive we so a large herd of Buffalos and elephants. The tour guide just knows exactly where to find the animals. In short it was a great trip and would recommend it without reservation.

Great Experiences with Savannah Adventures
We booked several tours with them and we we very satiesfied. The Safari Game Drive to the Zambezi National Park was amazing, the guide was on time, very knowledgable and found the animals at the right spots. We also enjoyed the vintage breakfast on a beautiful white sandy beach next to the zambezi river. What a treat! The walking safari to the Victoria Falls and the historic bridge is also a must, we were glad we booked it because it was fun and filled with historical infos of the area and Zimbabwe in general. The guide we had there was Carlos and he really enjoys being a guide you could tell. A wonderful experience , we were sad we only booked 3 night at this wonderful destination..we should have planned more time here. Thank you for your hospitality.

A totally professional, friendly, responsive and friendly operator.
We were a family of four travelling from UK to Victoria Falls. We stayed at N1 and wanted to make the most of our 11 days in Victoria Falls. We contacted Savannah Adventures and they immediately were responsive. They helped me compile an itinerary whilst in the UK. We paid cash upon arrival at N1. It was a simple and safe way of doing business. The game drives, and othe activities arranged by Savannah Adventures were superb. As well as the spectacular Falls, we saw countless animals, including rhino and lion. Everything went smoothly and has left us with best memories to last a lifetime. I even received a WhatsApp call in the UK from Savannah Adventures to go over everything. So professional. (One thing to remember if you are taking a child under 18 into Botswana, you need child's birth certificate. Savannah Adventures DID tell me but I forgot (fortunately I knew where it was and got a neighbour who keeps a key to go photograph it and WhatsApp it to me, so all was sorted in the end!). I would most definitely recommend Savannah Adventures to any of my friends who wish to travel to Zimbabwe.

Well organized tour with great guides.
My husband and I had an amazing day on our tour from Victoria Falls to Chobe. We were able to choose the activities we wanted (game drive, fishing, visit to the quadripoint) and everything was well coordinated. Pickup was on time, and our driver to the border, Eddy, was great to chat with and shared tons of info. He also kindly stopped for us to see animals. The game drive with Richard was incredible. We saw lions, a leopard, impala, hippos, elephants, giraffes, and more. We also did a quick fishing trip and then walked over the bridge to the quadripoint. I definitely recommend this company.

Excellent trip to Chobe
Our extended trip to Chobe with Savannah Adventures was an absolute highlight of our trip. We did the extended trip which means you enter the park first thing in the morning at 06h15. Transport from Victoria Falls was very smooth and entertaining. As you leave Victoria Falls at 05h and get back at 20h it is dark and you can already spot some animals. We saw hyenas, elephants and giraffe on our route. Reaching the park early and leaving later is an absolute plus. Our driver Eddy was very entertaining and very knowledgeable. In Chobe we did a fame drive of 6h in the morning and a river tour of 3h in the afternoon until sundown. We saw 10+ lions, 2 leopards, many elephants, buffalos and many other animals. Lunch at midday in buffet form was also great. Passing the border of Zimbabwe with Botswana was also super smooth. We had a blast of a day. In fact all our activities (helicopter flight over Falls, guided tour falls, etc) and transport was arranged by Savannah Adventures. They are 100% recommended. Good service, always on time, reasonable priced and with a lot of expertise and good tips

Very professional and attentive to detail.
Tafadzwa was amazing at planning my itinerary and making sure I was always on time for my activity pick ups. The detail provided was out of this world and I really felt content and privileged to have chosen savanna adventures for my trip around Zimbabwe!! I wouldn’t think twice about calling Taf for my next trip!

Top notch "Gin & Tonic Safari" at Victoria Falls!
I went with a friend on Savannah Adventures' Gin and Tonic safari after hearing about it through some travellers I was speaking to in town. Tafadzwa who is the charismatic young owner of the company greeted us personally, and after collecting another two guests we made our way to the National Park around mid-afternoon. The driver/guide certainly knew his stuff and even if we hadn't seen the large game we did see, it wouldn't have mattered as he made all the small animals, bugs and plant-life that people usually drive past in ignorance, so interesting. We did see plenty of large game though, including some beautiful giraffe and a pride of young lion at the very last minute after we were leaving our *sun-downer spot (which was spectacular by the way) and heading back to town. *At sundown we stopped right near a pristine white beach on the banks of the Zambezi, Tafadzwa and the guide laid out a camping table and chairs and a few nibbles - the selection of drinks were very welcome, but the Gin and Tonic was all we were interested in!
