Recommend Africa Uncovered Safaris
This is a well-organised and excellent itinerary to deep dive Botswana and Victoria Fall. I traveled to Zimbabwe by myself at the end of Aug and this trip went far beyond my expectations. I spent nine days exploring the Victoria Fall, Okavango Delta, Chobe Natinal Park and Elephant Sands. This was the first time I did safari in Africa and saw packs of lions, elephants, Hippo and even lepard, which is rarely to be found even in Botswana! My accommodations and meals were fabulous and the staff at each safari camp went above and beyond to give me a memorable experience.
Archie provide detailed and well-designed planning before the trip. He was quick to respond and was willing to answer questions. I also want to recognize Tafara's effort to smooth and enrich the whloe trip. He redesigned my schedule in Victoria Fall to accommodate every activities since my flight was delayed, helped with the visa issue at custom of Botswana and selected the best guide for my Safari. He was exceptionally nice and helpful. I will be recommending Archie/Tafara to anybody who is interested in exploring Botswana and Zimbabwe.

Excellence All-Around
I recently used Africa Uncovered for a week-long stay in Botswana, and what a fantastic experience it was.
Archie was promptly communicative every step of the way, and was so helpful in creating a safari plan that included every location I wanted to see. The great level of communication was especially important to me as I was a solo female traveler—I needed a company could trust.
The guide for the trip, Mr. Tafara, was simply wonderful. Professional, knowledgeable, and always there to help to ensure there were no issues. Mr. Tafara went above and beyond to make sure we got the best experience—for example, I mistakenly had not allotted time to visit Victoria Falls and it was not part of the safari itinerary I chose. When Mr. Tafara realized this, and given how close we were to the Falls, he arranged a visit and walk-through of the Falls while he knowledgeably narrated. He did this, and yet we managed to not miss out on any time anywhere else! He built in extra time throughout the trip so that we would be punctual to our destination, but also could stop and enjoy wildlife viewing on the journey. (Yes, you will see LOTS of wildlife during the car rides!) The timing and planning were meticulous.
This trend held true throughout the trip. For the entire week, he maximized our adventures while keeping our comfort and safety in mind.
Because Africa Uncovered contracts with local safari guides at every park/location, we received specialized, local knowledge for each and every location. It was fantastic. Mr. Tafara would be up and awake with us at 6am to ensure the local guide picked us up for the safari, and when we returned to the lodge, Mr. Tafara would be punctually waiting for us. We would then have a meal together to review the safari and get briefed on the plan for the following day. Everything was seamless and impeccably done.
The lodges were beautiful.
The food was delicious.
The safaris were spectacular.
Africa Uncovered has clearly established itself as one of the best. I highly recommend them for your African adventures!

A perfect week
Very kindly driver and reliable organization quickly answering any question.
Food good and even very good when buffets for breakfast or dinner.
Good balance between car drives, boating or walks through bush.
Very good accomodations (may be one a little less than the others).
Unbeleived places and landscapes (Chobe, Okavango, pans where you are like on the moon, close to elephants in Elephant sands)

Excellent organisation in an unforgettable trip to Chobe and Okavango
Africa Uncovered Safaris deserves nothing less than a 5-star review for the exceptional experience they provided for us. From start to finish, this company showed reliability, professionalism, effectiveness, and ease of communication. We (me and my 22 year old daughter) did the Chobe & camp site in Okavango and we could not have had a better experience.
We were in the good hands of Muza and Norman, who ensured that our journey was not only safe but also unforgettable, who made us feel like we were exploring with old friends. Their availability was remarkable; whenever we had questions or needed assistance, they were there to provide guidance. Muza's deep knowledge of wildlife, history, and local culture enriched our safari in ways we couldn't have imagined. It felt like we were learning from the best in the field. The insights they shared allowed us to connect with the environment, animals, and the rich history and culture of the region.
Trustworthiness is a precious quality in the travel industry, and Africa Uncovered Safaris embodied it entirely. Since the very beginning, when I have a lot of questions from home, they always responded them quick and effectively and it gave me a lot of confidence, specially being two women, and without experience. I really appreciated it.
I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking an extraordinary safari experience and am grateful to the company, Muza and Norman for all the good care that they put on us.

Life changing experience, thank you!
My experience with África Uncovered Safaris certainly deserves a 5-star rating. Our guide Muza was a wealth of knowledge about the area, sharing insights that enriched our journey. Norman, another guide, was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel well taken care of. The transportation was perfect, and the choice of lodges was impeccable. This personalized and informative approach made the trip truly unforgettable. I highly recommend África Uncovered Safaris for an authentic African adventure.

Amazing trip to Africa
I would definitely recommend booking with Africa Uncovered Safaris.
Archie, was very kind and helpful during all the process of planning and booking.
The safari tours that they offered were excellent choices with very nice tour guides and drivers. I always felt safe.
Muza, my guide and driver was always attentive to my needs. He is a very reliable guide, helped us to obtain Zimbabwe´s visa faster than any other tour guide, everyone knows him, and that proved to be very helpful.
Accommodations were excellent as well as the food provided along the 14 days tour at Namibia, Botswana and Victoria´s Falls.
Their destinations have a great variety of activities to experience across several locations.
Can´t wait to travel with them again.

We received outstanding, personalized highly recommended service!
I selected this company based on online reviews. From the beginning Archie answered every question and issue without delay and to the best of his understanding. Our companion, guide and driver Muza went above and beyond to make our trip safe, comfortable, memorable, and truly a trip of a lifetime. Knowing that we were vegetarian he made sure that every meal was to our liking! I would highly recommend this company to anyone that wants to explore beautiful Africa!

Complete support not only during the safari, but also before and after the safari!
Africa Uncovered Safaris made really a good job. Value / money ratio is very good. Archie supported my wife a lot regarding the visa applications and also excursion coordination before and after the safari when we had excursions in Zambia. Muza helped us a lot not only during the safari but also after the safari regarding the multiple excursion arrangements, coordination and transportation. We were happy about everything.
Africa Uncovered Safaris has my highest recommendation.
