Wonderful Tour with Amazing Guide
My parents and I went on the tour of Victoria Falls and Chobe River in Botswana for 7 days with Africa Uncovered Safaris. The booking process was very easy and Archie was a great contact. Very responsive and answered all of our questions. From the moment we landed in Victoria Falls, our guide Musa was incredible! He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we were well looked after and were able to do all the activities we wanted. One of our travelers ended up having a medical issue on the trip and both Musa and Archie were amazing support, getting us medical treatment immediately and their adaptability allowed us to rearrange our trip to still insure a fantastic experience. Even with the slight hiccup, we only missed one day of activities and all travelers were very happy with our experience overall. The quality of their service has been unmatched to any other tours we have taken before and the price point was very reasonable. All meals were included and the lodgings were great. I highly recommend their services and would use them again in the future!

Trip of a lifetime!
From the moment we landed, we knew that this was the right tour company for us as Norman and Simba collected us with open arms from the Vic Falls Airport - despite our tour not starting until the following day.
The next morning we were collected again and set off to Vic Falls for a walking tour. This was exceptional, with our guide providing detailed information on the history of the falls. Various view points made for a captivating experience, even with the falls being low on waterfall. Following this we headed off to Botswana, greeted again by a super friendly and always smiling, Norman. Great conversation and education punctuated our trip, making the hour or so drive into Botswana fly over. Especially as we see a mother and baby elephant feeding next to the road. Our afternoon boat safari was amazing, with elephant right up close, hippo lining the shores and beautiful scenery. The evening finished with a lovely dinner with Norman and Simba. Norman continued to do a great job of answering all of our questions and providing brilliant insight into the animals, culture and his experiences.
Our next day is truly one to remember with the two safari trips, morning and afternoon. Elephants everywhere, hippo out of the water and lifelong memories made.
The following day we had requested for an additional excursion to Devil’s Pool, which the team expertly organised. This is a must do, not many people in the world can say they have sat on top of a waterfall!
With the trip finishing with a lovely lunch at the Baines restaurant overlooking the Zambezi, it was a perfect end and way to say goodbye to our guide, Norman.
My wife and I would like to extend an especial thanks to Norman and the team for organising this. Norman’s positivity, excitement both before and after our excursions, and his continuous informativeness really made this trip for us.
We recommend Africa Uncovered Safaris and Norman as guide, for anyone looking to have a super memorable, outstanding trip!

Extraordinary trip with a warm, knowledgeable guide
My wife and I loved our trip through Zimbabwe and Botswana. Here’s what made the trip amazing:
1) Incredible nature: Chobe and the Okavango Delta were my favorites because we got to see so many animals from such a close distance. Walking among elephants, giraffes, and zebras during the bush walks was truly wild
2) Seamless logistics: Archie was professional and accommodating during the planning process (don’t be put off by WhatsApp because it worked well!), while Tafara ensured every stay and activity was perfectly coordinated during the trip so we never had to worry
3) Fantastic guide: Tafara, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and organized, not to mention a wonderful companion throughout our many game drives and meals together. He could spot animals from far off like no other and an hour later discuss politics over one of many delicious restaurants he brought us to. He’s the best
When we return (and we will), we’d definitely go with Africa Uncovered. They added a ton of value throughout the trip and it couldn’t have been any easier!

Amazing safari trip to Botswana and Victoria Falls
I did the 7-day Botswana trip from Victoria Falls along with my girlfriend and her sister, with Tafara as our guide. I genuinely believe that this was one of the best experiences of my life. Tafara was kind, knowledgeable, and very helpful. He made sure that the time we had was spent well. He also accommodated small requests that we had, and even took us to some interesting places in Victoria Falls that were not officially in the itinerary. The activities themselves were also great and well planned, we were lucky to see many animals during the game drives. The camping and Mokoro ride in the Okavango Delta was definitely the highlight of the trip, the local guides were very friendly and made the experience unforgettable. Also a special thanks to Archie for his behind the scenes work, smooth communication and quick response to questions.

Most comfortable journey ever
I live in Zambia and wanted to travel overland as I don't like flying. And since my dear family is coming to Africa to see me, I was looking for a safe and comfortable tour and I came across this company.
In particular, our personal guide Tafara was fantastic. His personality, knowledge, management skills and consideration were all excellent.
Our trip was very flexible and he suggested a comfortable plan according to our wishes. During the transfer he told us interesting stories about animals and nature and we were never bored.
I travel abroad a lot, but I've never travelled so far without worrying about time, everything is so well organised.
Moreover, he eventually escorted me to back to Zambia and I felt very safe.
I never expected such a safe and comfortable trip to Africa. Thanks to our professional guide Tafara and the company, I would recommend this tour to everyone.

One of the BEST trips and guides in my life: Botswana and Victoria Falls
I participated in the „7 days Botswana Magic and Incredible Victoria Falls“ tour in September with my sister and boyfriend, and I can truly recommend it!! I think it covered all the must-see spots in Zimbabwe and Botswana. Our guide, Tafara, was kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and really professional throughout the entire trip. Even though I’m not confident in speaking English (my English level is between B1 and B2 level) and a bit shy, he was patient and attentive, always making sure I felt comfortable. He created a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made the experience even more enjoyable. Tafara went above and beyond to accommodate our requests to the best of his ability, and even made additional suggestions that were even better than what we had in mind. Thanks to his recommendations, we made the most of our extra time even more fulfilling experience. The driving time to the next destination is sometimes long, but it was good chance to take a rest and Tafara explained about everything what we could be interested in and answered our questions. You can see the wild animals on the way too, not only during the game drives. Tafara stopped the car when we found interesting animals to take pictures and explained about them. He is divinity one of the best guid who we have experienced!!

The best guide ever
We had the best experience here. The guide Norman was flexible to our requests and very professional. Next time we visit Zimbabwe, definitely we will ask him guiding us again.
