Amazing Holiday - Off2Africa were very professional and their recomendations were spot on.
5/5

As an ex-Zimbabwean returning to Zimbabwe after many years - we booked through Off2Africa to ensure we got the best travel experience possible. Their recommendations were excellent - and all transfers flowed seamlessly. After a few days in Vic Falls, we stayed at Bakwena Lodge just outside Chobe National park. For our group of 6, this was a wonderful lodge and great value for money. Amazing animal sightings in the park included Leopard and Lion and even wild dog when en-route back to the lodge one evening. From there, we caught a road transfer to Khulu Lodge just outside Hwange national Park - where again we had some fantastic animal encounters including Elephant drinking from the pool 2 meters from where we sat - that was truly a unique experience and one we will always remember.
Off2africa truly value their clients and stayed in touch with us during our trip to ensure everything was tracking to plan. I would highly recommend them - they know and understand the region and will ensure you have a trip to remember!

Experience of a life time!
5/5

We visited Victoria Falls, Hwange and Botswana as a family group and it was the most amazing trip!
Everything ran smoothly and Becks recommendations on accommodation, safaris, and activities were excellent.
We had some amazing encounters with leopards, elephants, lions and so much more. Everyone that has seen our photos wants to go and experience it just like we did.
We fell so in love with our holiday and the country that we are going back next year to get married. We completely trust Beck's knowledge and advise on booking our next very special trip. We can't wait to go back!!

Professional, efficient, informative and friendly
5/5

I recently went on a bucket list trip to Chilo Gorge Safari Lodge, booked through Off2Africa and was delighted with all aspects of the trip. It was well planned and went smoothly from start to finish. They always responded quickly to e-mails and provided relevant information. I highly recommend both the company and the package!

Off2Africa did everything we needed and wanted, planned well for us. We had a wonderful time.
5/5

As an ex-Zimbabwean, I had specific wants and needs like visits to familiar places, staying in familiar places and no real interest in visiting a game park. Off2Africa understood these wants and fulfilled our wishes in exactly the right manner. They got us into the places we wanted to see, gave us good advice on travel times and distances and in fact did all of the essential thinking and planning for us. Tifiny anticipated a number of our interests and proactively ensured we were aware of the options available. In fact I sent one e-mail to Off2Africa telling Tifiny she was "the best". One thing we learned - My US bank needed more information on the receiving bank than had been supplied. This caused some stress in meeting the payment deadline. The venues they chose of us included Big Cave at the Matopos, a wonderful choice as this is a sublime place. Shearwater Village at Vic Falls was also a good choice. I would happily recommend Off2Africa to others.

Wonderful experience booking with Off2Africa
5/5

My first inquiry about Gonarezhou to Off2Africa was met with a quick response and the agent provided insight into the area and suggested options for stopover since it was a long journey from Harare to Chiredzi and back, considering we had a two year old. The Agent also managed to get us a special package at Chilo Gorge Safari which resulted in us spending 3 amazing nights there. Off2Africa's level of communication is exceptional as emails are responded to promptly. I have booked with other agents before who were not as effective in their communication but from now on, I am sticking with Off2Africa. Thank you Craig and Tiffiny for the wonderful experience.

5/5

We had an even better experience this time round - if that was even possible. I think what made is so was the fact that, although still hot, it was not stifling like it was last year, therefore making afternoon naps and night time sleeping possible.
The fishing was also better.
We had an awesome first night game drive - with an exceptionally close encounter with a curious elephant, but didn’t really see much after that (because of the previous weeks rain I suspect).
Because of those heavy rains there was a lot more greenery around which gave the whole conservancy a much lusher feel.

Thanks again to the consultants at Off2Africa for facilitating, what we hope to make an annual treat!!

Amazing and efficient.
5/5

We contacted Off2Africa just a few days before we wanted to travel. They had less than a week to arrange flights, transfers, accommodation and experiences for two people on a tight budget. No problem they said.
Flight 1 done. Straight out of the airport to smiling driver waiting for us. First hotel was Victoria Falls Safari Lodge. Wow. Stunning accommodation. The views were to die for. The food was heavenly. We got to see the Victoria Falls, Boma Restaurant and we went into town to the market, an experience not to be missed. From there we were transported to Botswana as due to the rains game viewing in Zimbabwe was poor. Another amazing hotel. Chobe Safari Lodge. Here a game drive was organised. We were lucky enough to see Lions as well as loads of other game. The hotel room was gorgeous. River front and lots of animals to see from the room. The luxury we experienced was beyond our imagination. Finally we headed back to Zambia for an overnight stay to be ready for our short flight back to Cape Town. Here the company showed their sense of humour. After two luxurious stays on the trip we were staying in a tent. I was not impressed. Until I opened the door. Inside a four poster bed a beautiful bathroom just another example of luxury. We sat by the river relaxing and watching the hippos just feet away. The animal experience didn't stop there. The outdoor shower at 6am with a beautiful gheko was a highlight for me. Finally we were transported to the airport and flew back to our final three days in Cape Town before our return to the UK.
I cannot recommend Off2Africa more highly. They managed to organise everything in less than a week. They kept to our budget. Most importantly we could contact them night and day at anytime and whenever you spoke to them they were cheerful as well as being efficient.
If you are looking for a company to organise your trip don't hesitate use Off2Africa.

Beck organised our whole trip including flights, transfers & safari lodged & all were brilliant !
5/5

Beck listened to the sort of trip & budget we wanted then suggested several options for us to look at - we were spoilt for choice! Both Rhino Post and Pondoro Lodge exceeded our expectations & were totally amazing. Our flights and particularly our transfers - jeeps, cars and drivers - were very professional & timely (unusual for Africa) and we felt (as 2 Middle Aged ladies !!) in very safe hands throughout our whole trip. We saw fantastic game & stayed in incredible surroundings & comfort. We would definitely use them again for any travel in Southern Africa & beyond.

Personalised professional service that doesn't end with the experience itself.
5/5

Once again we really enjoyed a trip arranged by Tifiny and Beck at Off 2 Africa. Tifiny went out of her way to ensure that we had the best possible experience, and despite us having been to Mana many times before, staying at and being pampered by the Ruchomechi staff made the experience so special. What so impressed me was the thoughtfulness on our return when Tifiny took the trouble to email and find out how the trip went.

Will definitely go again using Off 2 Africa once more.

Three wonderful travels
5/5

We travelled three times with Off2 Africa and each time it was absolutely wonderful. We travelled twice all through Zimbabwe and once through Namibia.
Each time we had a tailor made travel thanks to Beck. His knowledge of these countries and his wishes to organize exactly what will be the best from us according to our hopes made our travels unforgettable.
We had some wonderful experiences such as special dinners on Lake Kariba, fantastic walks into the bush, beautiful lodges and hotels..... and so on.
