Beautiful panorama drive
The Panorama Route is absolutely stunning, and Stanley made the whole day even better. He was full of interesting information, but also knew when to keep things light and just let us enjoy the views. Relaxed, funny, and clearly knows the area really well—Stanley made it a really enjoyable day out.

Well organized and made whole trip a simple breeze
We recently used Afro Dawn (AD) for a five day 4 night Victoria Falls/ Chobe Park excursion. When initially booking from USA, I looked at several companies and contacted each with questions. Isabella, the coordinator at AD, was extremely helpful, answered all my inquiries promptly and put together a custom made excursion for exactly what we wanted to do. All meals and trips to VF park, boma dinner show, zambezi river cruise, and 4 game drives/river excursions in Chobe were included, along with all transport, guides everywhere, and 4 nights accommodations. We had a lovely river facing room for Chobe stay and comfortable lodge for VF stay. We were met at the airport by Paul, who was like a personal guide for the entire time. He was FANTASTIC. We felt so safe with him and he was extremely attentive. We even got to meet Isabella, as she served as our excellent guide for VF. Paul " held our hands" for the transfers in and out of Botswana. Overall this company is five star and would highly recommend them

Absolutely fantastic tour with Duan, Izzy, Stan and Mike. I recommend this tour to everyone!!!
This tour was unbelievable. Probably three of the best days of my life! At camp Duan and Izzy made us feel incredibly welcome and kept us entertained through. The food was lovely and the pick up was super convenient. Izzy went the extra mile and picked up some underwear for me as I had forgotten mine. I will be eternally grateful. The day tours into Kruger were simply amazing - Duan, Stan and Mike were extremely knowledgable, friendly and hilarious. We saw all of the big 5 and have made memories for a lifetime. I couldn’t fault a single thing and would come back in a heartbeat. I recommend this tour to everyone.

This tour was absolutely AMAZING!
First of all I can’t begin to say enough about Paul and Isabella. They were there from beginning to end. Paul was at the airport from our arrival time and was a godsend for explaining and getting us through all the immigration and custom part of our stay. He was also a plethora of information about the two countries we visited.
Isabella just gave us the best tour of Victoria Falls and we came away from that tour just so incredibly grateful we had her for that tour.
Thank you both for a great time and it truly was the highlight of our trip to your beautiful country.

Perfect African journey with Calvin Kileo
In this kind of journey, the tour guide is almost everything. Our tour guide Calvin Kileo was everything we could wish for. He’s exceptional knowledge alongside he’s approach, patience and dedication is the result of a pure professionalism that maid our vacation perfect. The car was excellent very convenient and in excellent shape. Calvin made sure that it’s clean on every morning and that a sealed bottle of water is placed every seat. Felt like first class. Thank you Calvin for the great week and perfect African experience.

Two combined best Safaris
A visit to Hwange National Park and Full Day Chobe Trip is a must activity to do when you visit Victoria Falls Zimbabwe. The first Safari we took was full day Hwange Trip and its about 2hrs 30mins to reach that side because the road is very bad, lot of potholes. Thanks to Delight, he was a good and knowledgeable driver. l wish we had planned an overnight trip because the park is too big and has a lot to see one day is not enough seriously. Our safari guide was very professional, kind and knowledgeable about flora and fauna. We saw a lot of elephants, kudus, zebra, l cant mention all but l promise you it was the best safari. The most interesting part about this tour is we saw some lions 10meters away from a jeep, it was resting after the kill.
The chobe day trip is another unique safari l experienced when l visit Victoria Falls. lmagine having a 4x4 jeep safari then a boat safari on the same day and on both you will see some animals. Matthews picks us up at the hotel at 0710hrs and do the the handover to our driver the big guy l forget his name. We drive to Kazungula do the boarder process and get into our jeep to Chobe national park. The safari was good we also see some lions maybe 5 of them and buffalo. We had our buffet lunch it was delicious, we do enjoy it. After lunch to went on a cruise safari we saw some crocodile on the river banks of the river, elephants swimming in the chobe river and some buffalo drinking water. That was the best moments l have on this safari.
Words cant express all the happiness that Fuhara Safaris gave me . l enjoyed my whole trip and they are are must do activities such as guided tour of the Falls, sunset cruise either standard or luxury you will enjou either, boma dinner drum show and shopping around their small town.
l do recommend them so much.

Fantastic!
Working with Ntanda Ventures was an absolute pleasure. Sonja curated the perfect safari experience for us in Zambia, despite the limited time and budget we had to work with. She immediately understood our needs and crafted an itinerary that far exceeded our expectations. From the moment I reached out, I felt completely supported—Sonja was exceptionally responsive, flexible, and attentive to every detail.
The lodge she recommended was incredible, and our guide made sure every moment was unforgettable. I truly can't thank Sonja and the Ntanda Ventures team enough. This was one of the most memorable adventures of my life!

A life-changing experience — exceptional service from start to finish
From the moment my sister and I decided to plan this trip, we knew we were in a bit of a rush. We had tight timelines, limited availability, and a strong desire to make it all happen — but we also had very little time to plan. That’s when Matt from Tapestry of Africa stepped in, and everything changed.
Matt was incredibly responsive, patient, and genuinely invested in helping us build the experience we dreamed of. He answered every question — quickly and clearly — and worked with us to design a 9-day itinerary that fit our budget while still delivering the magic we were hoping for. Within days, we had a full plan covering both Safari in Tanzania and time in Zanzibar.
We felt supported, understood, and completely taken care of — not just during the planning phase, but all the way through the trip. Every transfer, every lodge, every guide exceeded our expectations. It’s rare to come across this level of service, and we’re honestly so grateful. What could have been a stressful rush turned into one of the most seamless and rewarding travel experiences we’ve had.
Once the safari began, things only got better. From day one, our guide Yudah made us feel incredibly comfortable and safe — and that was key. Thanks to his warm presence and professionalism, we were able to build a great connection and fully enjoy every moment of the journey. Everything felt smooth, well-paced, and thoughtfully handled.
As the days went by, the experience kept getting more and more exciting. We visited several parks, and with each one, the sightings became more impressive. We saw an incredible variety of animals — often from just a few meters away — and it honestly felt surreal. The closeness to wildlife was breathtaking and something we’ll never forget.
What truly made it exceptional was Yudah’s dedication and passion. He went above and beyond to make sure we didn’t just “see animals,” but that we saw the best of them, in the best possible way. He was constantly scanning the landscape, always giving his best to help us find every animal on our list and position the vehicle just right so we could take the perfect photos. His knowledge, energy, and commitment added so much value to the trip — it was unforgettable
After the excitement of the safari, we traveled to Zanzibar, where we had the chance to slow down and unwind. We stayed in a beautiful and comfortable hotel with lovely facilities, and we were welcomed with warmth and kindness. It was the perfect way to end such an intense and emotional journey — resting by the sea, soaking in the views, and reflecting on everything we had experienced.
Throughout the entire trip, we felt genuinely supported and cared for. Not only by Matt, who set everything up so efficiently and Yudah during the Safari, but also by Hilda, who was present every step of the way. From the planning phase to the post-travel follow-up, she was checking in to make sure we had arrived safely, were well prepared, and were enjoying every moment. It made a big difference to know we were not alone — we always felt accompanied and in the best hands.
To Matt, Yudah, Hilda, and the entire Tapestry of Africa team: thank you. You created something that went far beyond a holiday. You gave us an experience we’ll carry with us forever.
