Excellent service, perfect guide Tafara.
We very appreciated very good organization and very smooth run of the whole tour. Excellent guide Tafara was very helpful and headman Archie changed one of our accomodations place per our demand into much higher level without any surcharge. We strongly recommend using of this tour operator.

Tafara and Simba were phenomenal—very knowledgeable but also extremely kind and gracious hosts.
We had an incredible time with Africa Uncovered Safaris! Tafara and Simba were so professional and knowledgeable but also really took the time to individualize our group’s experience. They were flexible and helped us change/add excursions as we desired. They were also very attentive to our needs (we asked them to take us to a grocery store to buy some toiletries but they showed up that morning with the toiletries in hand so we didn’t have to waste time stopping at the grocery store). It was also such a pleasure to get to know them and their life stories—they were just very warm and welcoming. I am very grateful for how special they made our experience and highly recommend this company (especially Tafara and Simba) to all.

Victoria Falls and Chobe National Park
My self and a group of work friends used African Uncovered Safaris for a four day three night trip excursion after working in Harare for the week prior to heading back to the US. Tafara our guide and Simba our driver were amazing! We wanted to last minute add on swimming at Devil’s Pool at Victoria Falls. They made it happen with a little bit of adjustment to our schedule. We didn’t miss anything on our itinerary! The walking tour of Victoria Falls our sunset and sunrise safaris at Chobe were amazing! They far exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend them!!!!

Perfect Personalized Service
Our group of six were looking for a short four day trip to Victoria Falls, and then to nearby Chobe National Park. I did some original screening and found this company. I emailed Archie in the main office for information and he immediately replied. This is always the mark of a great company. We communicated back-and-forth several times to make a personalized tour trip with select hotels. Payment was easy, and communication was swift and clear.
When we arrived at Victoria Falls airport, we were met by the guides, Tafara and Simba. They were incredibly helpful throughout. For example, we had some extra free time and Tafara found an amazing vulture experience close by. We inquired about adding on Devil‘s Pool, and he immediately arranged this. I lost a toothbrush, and a new one was in my hand within the hour!
I cannot overemphasize how cheerful, helpful, and collaborative our guides were. They were always appropriate and respectful. This included multiple border crossings which required patience and organization. They were very attentive to getting us back to the airport on time. We became good friends and look forward to keeping in touch. I would highly, highly recommend this tour company to anyone in the area!

Amazing trip to Chobe park!
How lucky I am that I turned to this company to organize a safari in Chobe Park! Archie promptly replied by mail and we quickly agreed on all the nuances. I am very grateful that he offered a transfer from the airport to our lodge and we did not have to look for a taxi and get there on our own. Norman and Simba met us at the airport - very cool and sincere guys! The organization of the safari is simply on top! Everything is clear and punctual. We really liked everything! On the day of departure, they also arranged for us to transfer to the airport, for which, again, we are very grateful to them, saying goodbye to them we just cried, how warm and sweet everything was On our next visit to Zimbabwe, we know exactly where to turn!!! Many thanks for everything;-)

You must visit Zimbabwe with African Uncovered!
I went on a 5-day safari in Zimbabwe and had an incredible experience!
Hwange National Park offers an excellent structure with very expert guides (my guide on Game Drive was Talks and he is incredible!), fascinating scenery with a variety of surprising wild animals. I saw lions, elephants, zebras, antelopes, pumbas, giraffes, monkeys and different birds.
My guide for the entire tour was Muza and he offered valuable tips and guidance throughout the itinerary.
I strongly recommend!!!

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!
