Excellent service, meeting the needs of the customer
Tongasai from Cultural vibes Travel & tours did pick us up personally in Budlawayo and drove us to the Nwange Lodge for over night stay.After the game the next day , he did drive us to Vic falls. On the way we discussed potential events in Vic falls. Tonagesai did suggest a lot of good events and helped us book these events even though we did arrive late . He also picked us up at the lodge in Vic falls the next day and drove us to the vic falls and back. Very good service

Great Service, Highly recommended
We booked our trip with Tongesai and we were very impressed and pleased with all of the services. We were a bit apprehensive at first since there weren't many reviews and since we had to wire money beforehand, however, Tongesai was very thoughtful and communicative and provided us with an ideal itinerary. He ensured that all of our activities and travel accommodations were seamless and the tours he set up were amazing. I would highly recommend doing the Devil's pool at the Royal Livingstone Hotel. He was very knowledgeable and was able to provide us with suggestions that based our interest. Thank you, Tongesai for a very memorable trip!

Highly professional, friendly, extremely reliable, an absolute pleasure to manage my package
My experience with Cultural Vibes, Mr Tongesai Mutematsaka, was outstanding, with efficient and speedy communications, extremely reliable and dependable service in terms of collections, timing etc. The resort recommended, Ivory Lodge, was first class and highly recommended for a quality and comfortable stay. Overall, value for money, friendliness and reliability, I cannot recommend Cultural Vibes and Tours highly enough and it was my pleasure to support him for a true Zimbabwean experience.

Excellent and tailored service. Tongesai was organized and acommodating to my requests in VFA!
Tongesai was communicative about any changes to the itinerary and activities for each day. The tours were often times led by other operators, but Tongesai always made the effort to make sure they tied in nicely, both schedule and activity-wise. I had 5 days and 4 nights in Victoria Falls and managed to experience a lot of what is on offer in the town and region, including a day trip to Chobe NP in Botswana, and, remarkably, a solo flight in a helicopter over the falls. The restaurants reserved for meals were of good quality and diverse. The lodge picked by Tongesai, Bayete Lodge, was excellent, a true oasis.
I would recommend communicating to Tongesai what your ideas are for the allocated time in Victoria Falls and seeing what is possible - having a local's perspective, he can allocate you to what best suits your needs and aspirations during your time there.

Tongesai was EXTREMELY responsive to emails and customized our trip exactly as we requested.
A vacation truly feels like a vacation when the only thing you have to worry about it getting yourself to the airport. From the airport pick up, to the resort, to the numerous adventures and tours, to the last minute shopping trip, and the return to the airport, everything went so smoothly. Tongesai did a great job tailoring our (way too quick 2.5 day) adventure to exactly what we wanted. Instead of doing a helicopter ride we opted for an additional day on a game drive to Chobe National Park. This also gave us some much needed time for shopping at Elephant Walk and the market. We stayed at the Bayete Resort which is a beautiful place with helpful staff and great accommodations. The pool was a nice relaxing treat for the end of adventure filled days. The Boma Dinner was so much fun, the falls were gorgeous, and it was really nice seeing the rhinos making a comeback on the Stanley and Livingstone Reserve. If you have never considered Zimbabwe a destination resort, then you must reconsider. From beginning to end, the people of Zimbabwe were some of the most friendly people I have met on the planet. Thank you to all and a special thank you to Tongesai for making this such a special vacation:)

Well organized tour and activities
Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours is great and highly recommended!
I provided the dates I would be traveling to Victoria Falls and Tongesai (Owner of Cultural Vibes) proposed accommodations and activities. What's great is that you can choose exactly what you want to do and you will receive a personalized itinerary. The payment process was seamless and I was emailed copies of the activity vouchers as confirmation.
When I arrived at my hotel, Tongesai met me and provided me with the activity vouchers. Pickup times for the activities were spot on and the activities exceeded my expectations. I even requested a last minute addition to my itinerary and Tongesai was able to make it happen!
Even after my trip was complete and a different vendor had not emailed me a video I was promised, Tongesai went out of his way to follow up with that vendor to ensure they finally delivered.
If you book a trip with Cultural Vibes Travel & Tours, you won't be disappointed.

Our Trip Was Perfect.
Tongesai was so helpful the entire time we were planning our trip so we had high expectations and he even exceeded those. He planned out every day for us perfectly and was very timely and professional the entire time.
He was able to set up our safari, tour of the falls and tour of the devil's pool so everything was set up for us when we got there. We stayed in Zambia and he was able to provide us with seamless transfers across the border multiple times per day.
We were so impressed and highly recommend Cultural Vibes!

Truly magical trip with Cultural Vibes Travel
My family and I had a magical and amazing tour at Victoria Falls, thanks to Tongesai Mutematsaka at Cultural Vibes Travel and Tours based in Zimbabwe.
The trip from start to end was superb and I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a Zimbabwe holiday.
Our accommodation was lovely and we saw African wildlife daily from our room and restaurant in the evening.
We were looked after by our driver and guide John Matumbura (he runs The Cyclonic Tours) every step of our trip.
We even changed our itenery while over there to see Zambia and everything was organised perfectly so we could have the holiday of our dreams.
I would say to anyone looking at Safari booking to use Culture Vibes as you will have the most amazing holiday xxx

Tongesai was responsive and very courteous.
We initially planned to go with another tour operator, but when we contacted Tongesai, he was very accomodative and responsive. He picked us up on time and went out of his way to make us feel at home. He even suggested very good restaurants. We had a great time and I would certainly book with Tongesai again.

Tongesai & John made our trip to Zimbabwe hassle-free and extremely enjoyable!
Tongesai was extremely helpful in our booking process for our trip to Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe and Hwange National Park. He took care of all the details, and created a specialized itinerary to work around all of our flight times. He even surprised us with a sunset cruise on the Zambezi for our free night. John was our driver and tour guide of the falls, and we enjoyed talking to him and learning all about Zimbabwe. We would highly recommend this group to anyone looking to plan a trip to the area.
