Zim provided a trip that was varied and interesting with a wonderful guide and great accommodation
This trip was the best holiday we have ever had. Botswana and Zimbabwe were beautiful countries with amazing wild landscapes. The variety of animals and birds we saw was beyond our expectations from so many elephants to the delightful meerkat. We enjoyed meeting villagers and gaining an understanding of their very simple lives. People here are so happy and friendly. We never felt unsafe. Camping on the salt pans was quite an adventure as was the family of elephants who blocked our track and were a little scary. Awesome to see lions however the leopards remained elusive to us. Zim Travel have been brilliant to deal with and everything went like clockwork. Thank you to Pamela who organised the trip and to Stanford our amazing guide.

friendly organizer, everything well organized
Our guide was very friendly and helpful. On our tour I thought it was a shame that we had to pay the entrance fee to the Vic Falls because the tour already had a high price (but this was described in the document) The safari was very nice. we were able to take enough time to observe the animals. Overall, the tour was incredibly beautiful.

Friendly
It was a beautiful Time.
I liked the Victoria Falls alot.
I had already been on a safari before where I saw more animals.
That's why I would leave this out next time.
The service and the food were always nice and delicious.
I think the price is too expensive for the whole tour, especially since not everything is paid for. (Entry for the V.Falls)

A really great tour that varied in activities
Cosmos ( Renamed Bubba for the duration of the tour) was our tour guide and he did know his stuff. He was informative and funny, He lugged our bags. Organised tours and was just exceptional in all he did. The van was too small for our group so he organised a trailer for the luggage on his day off. He drove really well and spotted animals way before any of us. The van could do with replacing as its getting older and had a couple of issues which Cosmos fixed. The seats were very comfortable though.
The tour was good because it wasn't all open jeep. There were walks, morokos and boats with great food and drinks supplied. We upgraded the hotels and found them to be lovely. Sleeping under the stars was great, even got a hot water bottle to use. Food was good throughout the tour although sometimes it was cold. Spotted lots of animal and completed the big 5 minus the rhino.
There were no hiccups with the accommodation which was good.
Didn't think much of the Boma dinner and wouldn't recommend wasting a night there. Far too crowded. No view of the festivities.
All in all the tour was good value and varied.

Very professional, reliable, and responsive.
The booking process was a breeze. Both Pamela and Blessing were very communicable and responsive. The whole trip was amazing! Every place we visited was beautiful and we enjoyed it very much. Hotels were nice and comfortable, food were fantastic, and more importantly our guide, Moto, was incredible. He always made sure we were well looked after, and definitely made the trip more memorable. Thank you very much!

Fantastic from start to finish
We did the Chobe trip. Pick up and border crossing was very smooth, everything was well organised. Our game drive was wonderful - we saw Lions very close, elephants, hippos, buffalo and more. Lunch was a delicious buffet (veggie food was good). The afternoon river trip was amazing, we saw elephants and hippos up close, buffalo and crocodiles too. The journey home was simple. Everybody working on the tour was helpful and kind. We would highly recommend.

Pamela went out of her way to help us understand options and book the perfect safari package.
Our adventure was based out of the Chobe Safari Lodge. The reception, housekeeping, dining, and guide staff were without exception positive, helpful, and capable. The inclusive price was fair for the room, the meals and the activities we wanted. The game and boat tours themselves were all incredible (4 did 4 total of 3 different varieties).
Would use this the same agency to book again, and will bring our kids next time.

Miles above the budget price.
We booked expecting a budget (but non-camping) experience. Instead, we had Pamela meet us at the airport and then see to absolutely everything else. She took care of our three-person family, only. We were not grouped in with other travelers! The lodgings were also far above what we would consider "budget."
In addition to the regular 8-day "budget" tour to Vic Falls, Chobe, Elephant Sands, and the Delta, we requested an add-on day trip to Hwange. While the road to Hwange is terrible, Africa Zim accommodated this request, and we were very happy with that tour as well.
The only flaw at all is that the information we had did not make clear to us that we would be taken care of so well!
