The best tour operator we've ever dealt with
5/5

Just returned from 3 weeks safari in Botswana & Zimbabwe arranged by Off2Africa. I can't begin to explain what a perfect experience our trip was. We stayed at 4 camps in Botswana & 3 in Zimbabwe including Victoria Falls. After contacting Chloe from Off2Africa about the type of trip we were looking for she put together a proposal via a link which was very detailed but also visually exciting as it showed the accommodation we were to be staying, the wildlife expected to be seen as well as a detailed itinerary. All but one of our transfers was by light plane which saves so much time but also gives a great view of the countryside as you are only flying at 5,500 ft. The logistics of the transfers was seamless. The beauty of this was that it wasn't a "group tour" as it was just my wife & I but we met some great people, who have become friends, at each of the places we stayed. This was an early 40th wedding anniversary trip & Chloe had arranged something at every place we stayed, from bottles of champagne to a private candlelight dinner on a pontoon in a lagoon with waiter & chef in the Okavango Delta. Do not miss the "doors off" helicopter experience over the Okavango Delta. After Covid put a halt to a previously organised trip there I started looking at tour operators in Africa rather than in Australia. The reviews for Off2Africa were universally excellent. I can only add to those reviews as I couldn't recommend Off2Africa more highly with special mention to Chloe whose assistance was patient, helpful and professionally friendly. Thanks again guys.

Trip of a lifetime!
5/5

Chloe at Off2Africa put together the best trip ever! As a couple who had never been to Africa and just had a loose idea they wanted to go on a Safari, through dozens and dozens of emails, a 3 year Covid delay Chloe went above and beyond!
Chloe was able to help decide what we were looking to do and see, and suggested wonderful places to stay with the budget we had! All transportation was organized through Zimbabwe and into Botswana, right the way down to airport transfers. Everything was seamless! Her knowledge of the accommodation options and areas they are in are outstanding!
If you’re considering an African Safari, reach out to Chloe at Off2Africa, you will not be disappointed!

Incredible time in Southern Africa
5/5

The trip was just amazing. We really enjoyed it. Everything was perfectly organized by Sian and Off 2 Africa. Even the issue with the lost luggage at Johannesburg. A few days later they delivered it to us in Botswana.

The whole trip was a highlight. But in special the staff/guides. They really gave their best to make us happy. We saw so many animals and the guides made sure we were really close to them.
Food was also really good and we loved the Okavango Gin.

We liked the itinerary with 2 days Chobe and a lot of activities there. Then setari Camp to relax and then Rra Dinare with again game drives. It was perfect.

And of course the flights were a highlight and made the holiday very special.

We have nothing to complain. It was one of our best holidays ever and we would like to thank Sian and Off 2 Africa for the perfect organization of the trip.

The African Safari trip we’d been dreaming of
5/5

I arranged a Botswana Safari for me and my partner threw Off2Africa with Chloe and it was the most fantastic trip we’d been dreaming of. We saw so many amazing animals and everything ran smoothly. Both lodges were comfortable and great fun.

Chloe answered all of our queries promptly I’m the lead-up, including in relation to joining the Safari & meeting our departing flight time, baggage allowances & supporting us with a minor hiccup on delayed baggage on our arrival. We stayed at Bakwema Lodge near Chobe and Moremi Crossing in Okavango Delta, Botswana. Both were comfortable, well set-up and were all-inclusive, including delicious food, good jeeps and great guides.

Helped us curate an unforgettable Safari experience
5/5

It was my first safari and I was quite unsure which operator to work with as I was booking for a group of friends. I checked the different Safari packages on Safari.com and came across Off2Africa. It had interesting packages that suits our budget and what we were looking to do. When I started enquiring, Sian Edwards who responded to me was very patient. Initially we couldn’t decide if we wanted to do Botswana and Victoria Falls as weather would be very hot in Oct. After much consideration and advice from other friends, we decided to do the safari in Botswana instead of Kruger National Park. As we discussed among ourselves to fine tune what we really wanted in the safari, Sian continued to be very helpful and patient.
She helped us secure the best value in Chobe Princess River Cruise, Muchenje Safari Lodge in Botswana and Victoria Falls Safari Club in Victoria Falls. All three were very good and we enjoyed every one of them! Activities she recommended in Victoria Falls were very good, such as canopy tour, sunset dinner cruise, and Helicopter ride over the Victoria Falls. We enjoyed ourselves very much. She was very responsive when I communicated with her via email and WhatsApp.
She genuinely wanted to help us achieve the best safari experience!
It averaged about USD 560 per day per person for our 6 nights safari. All air conditioned rooms, full board, except VF safari club was breakfast, tea and happy hour! For the quality accommodation and service we received, it was very good value.
If you are planning for safari in Botswana, check Off2Africa, Sian Edwards out. Hope you have a great safari experience like we did!

Exceptional, one of the best organised trips I have been on. I cannot recommend them highly enough!
5/5

One of the best travel companies I have used. The level of organisation was exceptional and took the stress out of travelling. Off 2 Africa offered a very personal and adaptive booking experience which maximised our time in Botswana. Communications both before and during the trip were excellent and efficient. Having been able to meet the owner's on our safari you could not find a better company to book your trip to Africa through as their knowledge and commitment to creating the perfect experience is unmatched. I cannot recommend Off 2 Africa highly enough!

Great communication - Perfect Trip Planning - Lasting Memories
5/5

We were concerned when working with a tour operator that was in Africa that we could not meet before hand and had to send a lot of money to confirm the trip. We can tell you that Off2Africa there is no worry and they were very professional in handling all communication. Chloe was excellent at all the communication before the trip and answering all questions. We then arrived and had an amazing time during the entire trip. We barely had to look at our schedule and try to figure out next steps during the trip as it was handled so smoothly that each stop would update us clearly on our next transportation and what was happening that it flowed perfectly. Thank you Chloe and we have already recommended you to other people for their trip planning.

Amazing experience!
5/5

Working with Off2Africa Travel and personally with Chloe was a true pleasure from the very start of the journey. Selecting the most suitable Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and Botswana offers at the beginning, reviewing, comparing and explaining options, and finally making the choice went smoothly, efficiently and professionally. Chloe tirelessly and patiently fine-tuned something that in reality exceeded our expectations in every aspect of this African adventure. All organizational, communication and information aspects were meticulously crafted according to our needs. The end result was superb and could not have been done better!
Thank you so much Chloe and Off2Africa!

Perfect Planning - Great Communication - Wonderful Execution - Awesome Experience - 10/10
5/5

I had the pleasure of working with Emma on planning this trip to Victoria Falls and I am delighted to say that she was great! From the get go, communications were timely and concerns addressed efficiently.

The initial itinerary needed a bit of change on my end and all these were promptly accommodated. On the ground everything ran like clockwork and I did not have to worry about anything other than just enjoying the experience. And overall what a value for money!

Thank you Emma & Off2Africa, I look forward to working with y'all on my next trip.
