Day trip to Chobe National Park
4/5

Exploring the Chobe river was great and our captain was wonderful We saw lots of wild life. Lunch was excellent and also the safari drive was excellent.
Transportation (from the border to the Chobe National park) was just OK can be improved and probably would have been better to stop for cofee in a location where bathrooms were available.
Altogether great experience!

Our trip was great and we thought it was fantastic seeing the animals up close.
4/5

We did enjoy our stay, the accommodation was lovely and the food amazing. We would have liked to have been able to spend more time with our guide finding out about the local area.

Flexible and nimble staff
4/5

We requested Africa-Zim to organize a tour for us to Vic Falls and a visit to Chobe park in Botswana. We gave them 3 days to complete arrangements, and we began the trip at the end of the 3rd day. It was a moderately priced trip and we got excellent value for money. We had an afternoon to see Vic Falls then went onto Chobe park where we had 1 night at Water Lily lodge (4 star) in Kasane, 2 nights camping in a tent in Chobe, with the elephants and lions nearby, and 2 nights back in Kasane at Toro lodge (3 star). Our connections throughout were all done well and the people at each place knew Blessing quite well. I give this team 5 stars for their resourcefulness and good services.

8 days from Maun to Vic Falls
4/5

We booked a tour of 8 days, from Maun to Vic Falls. Blessing was very friendly, more a driver and organizer than a true tourist guide. He arranged all excursions, obviously with a profit percentage for him, but it's his job. He can arrange your suitable tour but you must have to tell him what is your program.
I can suggest to contact him if you have a clear idea about your trip.

The 8-day trip was relaxing, well-organized, and of great value
4/5

The communications in planning this trip were very good, the service was excellent, and the trip generally lived up to our expectations--even though when we booked it we did not exactly know what to expect. The first thing to understand is that this the 8-day safari is not a constant trip in the bush. Our director from Africa-Zim, Blessing, is wonderful--very organized and professional, as well as informative. Moreover, it was only our family on this tour--me, my husband, and our adult daughter, and we really appreciated the flexibility this trip offered. The first day we traveled from Livingstone to the Chobe Safari Hotel. The hotel was luxurious and the service was great, as was the boat tour on the Chobe river that we took the afternoon we arrived. The guide on the boat was superb in his ability to spot and talk about wildlife. The next day, we went to the Chobe game reserve, and once again, the sights were spectacular, and the expert guide made the 3-4 hour outing quite wonderful. The following day we drove about 7 hours to Maun and the Sedia Hotel. The hotel is not the best; the outing to the Okavanga Delta was very interesting, but we saw little wild life, in part because of the season. Nothing was scheduled for the next day in Maun, so my husband and I paid extra for a trip to the Moremi Game Reserve. It was a long drive, but once again, the guide was absolutely wonderful and it was well worth the added expense. The following day we spent in the Africa-Zim air-conditioned, comfortable van driving back to Victoria Falls. The Rainbow hotel was lovely, with a view of Victoria Falls and all the amenities one would want. We had a great time touring Victorian Falls the following day. Blessing then took us to the exquisite, historical Victoria Falls Hotel for a wonderful lunch, and then a celebratory dinner of authentic Africa cuisine at the Bhoma Hotel (with music, drums, singing, and dancing) our last night. It had been my husband's birthday the day before, and Blessing went out of his way to have the restaurant present him with a birthday cake. We had a wonderful trip. The only slight downside were the long drives between Chobe, the Okavanga Delta and back to Vic Falls, but the scenery was interesting, the air conditioned van very comfortable, and we really enjoyed talking to Blessing and learned a huge amount from our conversations with him. We had a wonderful trip for a very reasonable price and I strongly recommend Africa-Zim. Thank you so very much, Blessing.

Overall, great thank you for helping to plan and arrange for activities and accommodation in Vic Falls.
All the requests were addressed promptly during booking.

Good experience
4/5

Blessing Mumbure, my contact for Africa Zim Travel is a very good guy. We agreed my itinerary by mail and I can say that everything was done in the right way. No problem for the accomodations, no problem for the transfer from/to the airport or to the several places visited (Hwange National Park, Chobe National Park...). He can suggest the best that North Zimbabwe can offer and he's always available for your needs.

Every detail of the trip was well planned.
5/5

We just completed the most wonderful trip. We arrived at the Zimbabwe airport and Kudzi met us at the airport. We dropped our bags off at the Nkozi hotel and started out afternoon on the river cruise. The next day Kudzi picked us up after a restful night of sleep and delightful breakfast at the hotel. We headed to Chobe, Botswana for the day. Every step of the way, Kudzi guided us with transportation and coordinated all of our Chobe guides with a handoff. We were never left alone to figure it off ourselves and our days were perfectly coordinated. We were always on time thanks to Kudzi!

We returned back to Zimbabwe the following morning with each of the next 3 days perfectly planned and timed. We saw all 5 of the Big 5 animals during our trip there in Zimbabwe and Chobe. Moreover, the staff at the hotels and each excursion were so kind during our stay.

I would highly recommend Africa Zim travel. They handled everything for us and were so accommodating to adjusting our itinerary during our planning stage. Special thanks to Pam and Shannon for the planning and to Kudzi for being an exceptional guide and executor of a magical and stress-free trip.

Professional, responsive, and expertly organized with unforgettable experiences.
5/5


Our trip with Africa Zim Safari was truly unforgettable and exceeded our expectations in every way. From the planning stages through the end of our journey, Sharon, Pamela, and Blessings were exceptionally professional, responsive, and quick to answer any questions we had. Their excellent communication and attention to detail made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

The transportation throughout our trip was comfortable and reliable, and every accommodation was top-notch. The rooms were beautiful, well-appointed, and provided the perfect place to relax after each day's adventures. The food was also amazing, giving us the opportunity to enjoy a variety of delicious local and international dishes.

One of the highlights of our trip was our guide, Stanford. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife, local culture, and the places we visited added tremendous value to our experience. He was kind, attentive, and consistently went the extra mile to ensure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.

The incredible safari experiences, up-close encounters with animals, and memorable cultural events such as the Boma Drum Show truly enhanced our journey. And, of course, seeing Victoria Falls was a trip of a lifetime—a breathtaking experience that we will never forget.

Thanks to the entire Africa Zim Safari team, our African adventure was seamless, enriching, and filled with unforgettable memories. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional safari and travel experience.
