Adventures and authentic tour
We had a great time as family (age 30-64) and the organization was good. Simon answers all your questions upfront and during the trip. We booked our flights to Victoria falls and everything else was taken care of. You pay online upfront. Simon did the pick up by himself and also drove us to the Safari in Hwange. We had a lot of fun! We did a full day safari tour to see as much animals as we can see. At vic falls we booked some additional activities like a helicopter flight, which I can definitely recommend (but yes cost extra money). I would recommend to go during the dry season, as you see the vic fall’s diversity!
We felt very safe all the time with Simon or the tour guides he organized at the different locations. We made memories for our lifetime and would do it again.

Superb, 100% professional, welcoming and accommodating!
Simon is a master of his craft, been traveling africa for many years- Simon is friendly, welcoming, accommodating, makes everything smooth. Which is what you need with a tour operator! He made the best suggestions and made the transitions from Zambia to Zimbabwe so incredibly easy! He walked us thru the whole process. I couldn’t say enough about Simon, we plan to return to visit again!
Simon of Africa Beast Safari is the best!
By accident we came upon Africa Beast Safari when we were on a world cruise in early April, 2024. Simon who runs Africa Beast Safari is incredible! He responded to our inquiry promptly and professionally and we booked 6 days...Victoria Falls, Chobe Nat'l Park and Hwange Nat'l Park. Simon took care of literally EVERYTHING...our transfers, hotels, guides, safaris, boat cruises, helicopter ride, Boma dinner and a traditional village tour. Every guide was on time and professional. We always felt safe and we had an absolute BLAST! Our accommodations were amazing and the food excellent! We saw so many animals and felt that we had really immersed ourselves into this beautiful country and its people. Simon even took us to dinner and we got to know this amazing man who is now our friend for life. If you are looking for an adventure of a lifetime Simon is you man! We highly recommend Africa Beast Safari!!

Simon from Africa Best Safari exceeded our wildest expectations
We contacted Simon a few days before arrival.
He responded to our inquiry very quickly and comprehensively.
He took GREAT care of us
He picked us up from the bus, arranged a great overnight stay, and booked Safafi at Hwange Park, the Zambezi Sunset Cruise, and a guided tour of Victoria Falls.
Organization at the HIGHEST level, everything on time.
We highly recommend the services of Africa Beast Safaris.

Amazing 6 days in Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park!
We recently returned to the UK from 9 days in Zimbabwe and Zambia, with 6 of those days spent in the care of Simon from Africa Beast Safaris. Simon booked accommodation, tours and travel, and either shepherded us himself or arranged transportation as necessary. We decided to book with Simon because he had great reviews, his quotation was very clear and he was responsive in all our pre-arrival communications. Our experience lived up to his excellent reputation and we loved our holiday at Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park. Simon was friendly and attentive with a great sense of humour, responding to our requests and making sure we were enjoying ourselves. My wife and I are very happy to recommend Simon and his company.

Simon was amazing. He got us exactly where we needed to go and we saw some amazing sights.
We only had a short amount of time in Victoria falls region, so we went with Simon and Africa Beast Safaris to visit Chobe National Park for a day trip. Simon was incredible and he made it incredibly easy and enjoyable to cross over to Botswana and experience both a land tour via an open air 4x4 and also a boat tour on the Chobe river. All of our guides on both of those excursions were amazing.
On the 4x4 tour we saw lions, lots of antelope, lots of elephants, water buffalo and more.
The boat tour was what our family enjoyed the most. It was incredible getting up close and personal with hippos, giant crocs, elephants, birds and buffalo. We would highly recommend this tour.
Plus lunch was amazing!

Amazing, perfectly planned adventure!
Simon put together an absolutely stunning trip of Zimbabwe for me. Gave him a rough outline of the top two things I wanted, the number of days I had and he returned promptly with the perfect trip that fit the budget! Simon was very hands on and communicative and reliable. The trip was well planned to give me rest and breaks while also thoroughly immersing me in the beauty of Victoria Falls and the adventures of safaris. 7 days/6 nights was perfect to give me the full experience of seeing Victoria Falls, the Zambezi, and multiple days of safaris. Simon was also very helpful in last minute changes of schedule and activities due to my changes in schedule and needs. 10/10 would absolutely recommend Simon!

Fabulous Full Day Safari
We were based in Victoria Falls for our week and wanted to include a day at Hwange National Park. Simon was very easy to deal with and arranged for us to be collected at our Vic Falls hotel at 0600 and our driver Liberty was there on time with a very comfortable car. Only one other person joined the two of us which was much appreciated as we had requested a small group. Liberty was a great driver and had good conversation.We met our guides on arrival at 0900 and the three of us transferred to the jeep. Within 10 minutes we saw lions, one male, two females. Just before lunch we were the only group to spot a leopard. We followed and watched him for about twenty minutes until he went up a tree and late on in the day went back to the same space the guide had marked and watched him again, still hunting. It was a long day but a great safari, seeing blue wildebeest, hippos, crocodiles and a wonderful scene at the waterhole of elephants bathing and drinking late afternoon. Very smooth journey home for 8 p.m. A bit later than scheduled, but only because Liberty stopped at the Painted Dog rehab centre so we could view two dogs they had there recovering from a lion attack. A very memorable day!

Unforgettable Zimbabwe safari experience
We just got back from an incredible 6-day trip to Zimbabwe with African Beast Safaris, and it was beyond amazing! Simon, our guide and trip manager, made everything so easy and enjoyable. Despite some flight delays (which were booked separately), Simon took it in stride, rearranging everything so we didn’t miss a beat. He was always available and responsive, no matter the time of day, which really put us at ease.
We stayed at Elephant Hills Resort while in Victoria Falls, which was absolutely gorgeous. Then, we moved to Ivory Lodge in Hwange National Park, and that place was a highlight! It had its own wildlife concession area, so we were surrounded by animals all the time — it felt like a private safari experience just staying there.
The trip was packed with amazing activities: morning, full-day, and evening safaris, smooth transfers between locations, and a lovely boat trip. We also had an incredible night of stargazing with Amarula (highly recommend!) where we got a full guide on all the star constellations visible in the African sky — such a unique and relaxing experience.
What made the trip even better was that we had two groups who booked everything separately, but African Beast Safaris made sure we all shared the experiences together without a hitch. Both Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park were stunning, and we saw so much wildlife it was unreal!
There were no issues at all, and Simon’s attention to detail made everything run like clockwork. If you’re planning a safari in Zimbabwe, I can’t recommend African Beast Safaris enough — it was truly an unforgettable adventure, and we’d do it all again in a heartbeat!
