Chobe Safari Lodge Holiday 2015
We used Falcon Safaris only to arange our accomodation etc in Chobe Safari Lodge and were assisted by Patrick Manyika. He was quick with responses(via email) and through that helped us to plan accordingly.

New to the bush - choose Chobe Safari Lodge!
I'm a native Expat who was born and grew up in Botswana. Having left 20-years ago I was finally able to take my new family with me tonAfrica all the way from USA! Chobe Safari Lodge is a great spot to use as a base if you want to visit Moremi, Okavango, Vic Falls etc. The game drives are spectacular and don't forget the unbelievabe sunset river cruise! The staff is VERY professional and pleasant. I left my laptop at the hotel and they were able to find it, track me down and get it back to me with no issues at all (try that in a hotel in the USA...). Food is good, rooms are very comfortable and safari stylish. My kids loved waking up to watch the monkeys. A must stay!0

Trip of a lifetime
I found the staff most helpful. Aron, our booking agent, always came back to me promptly and designed a varied tour of Victoria Falls that made our holiday relaxing and interesting, making the place come alive. I would go back tomorrow if I could. It was a trip of a lifetime.
Excellent communication. Dependable. Trustworthy.
My daughter and I traveled to Zimbabwe to see Victoria Falls. Our trip was short, 1 night . We used Falcon to book our hotel room and our transfers to and from the airport.
Our room at the Victoria Falls Hotel was beautiful and exactly what we had asked Falcon for.
The driver was waiting for at the airport on arrival and again at the hotel exactly when they said they would be there.
Communication with John at Falcon before our trip was excellent and made us feel very confident about everything we had asked for.
I would definitely use Falcon Safaris again if I returned to Zimbabwe.

Zambezi Sunset River Cruise
I booked my cruise a few months in advance just to be sure. As advised I was picked up by bus from my hotel at the advised time and taken to the ferry. The boat was not crowded and offered great viewing from all sides. Nice snack food and cocktails were served. I never imagined I would be cruising up the Zambezi River just above the Victoria Falls drinking a cool Gin & Tonic. The highlight was seeing a huge Lone Bull Elephant on one of the large islands. The crew was great - but special mention must be made of a young local man in traditional dress - his name was Innocent - he gave a wonderful commentary during the cruise.
Thankyou Innocent.
Our driver was on time on both occasions, on arrival, and departure. No complaints at all.
Not a lot to say really as we only used Falcon Safaris for our airport transfers. We cannot fault the service. When we got to the airport, our driver was waiting for us, and on our departure day he got to us very early, perhaps a little too early actually.

Highly recommend Falcon Safaris!
Since our trip to Zimbabwe would be my family's first experience in Africa, I really wanted everything to go wonderfully for them. Lucky for us, I chose Falcon Safaris to be our guides while we were there.
I spent almost a year sending emails back and forth to Patrick, who was incredibly patient, kind and accomodating with all our requests. By the end of my planning stage, I actually felt terrible for all the requests, changes and ideas I brought to him throughout the year, but he was always professional and willing to address all of my concerns. I couldn't have asked for a better planning phase.
When we arrived in Victoria Falls, Patrick and Brian met us at the airport, and from that time forth (13 more days!), we explored Victoria Falls (amazing!), Hwange National Park (incredible!), Matopos National Park (breathtaking!) and Antelope Park (wonderful!). Brian was with us every step of the way, and accomodated all of our requests with a smile and a kind heart. Not once was he late in picking us up, and not once did we feel nervous about our trip. He (and Patrick) executed everything PERFECTLY. By the end of our stay in Zimbabwe, we felt like Brian was a part of our family. He is truly an exceptional person!
I highly recommend Falcon Safaris to anyone hoping to explore Zimbabwe. Their knowledge, willingness to accommodate, and their kindness impressed us deeply. We will absolutely use them again when we return to beautiful Zim!
