Trip of a Lifetime
This was truly a trip of a lifetime. Liz worked with me to select the perfect trip and activities for my husband and I. I can only describe Zambezi Safari and Travel Victoria Office staff (Liz, Chris and Jane) as professional, courteous, prompt and patient. We truly enjoyed working with them. Our trip to Zambabwe, Botswana and South Africa was perfect!

Gorillas, Chimps hanging out feet away, lions eating a wildebeest. Who could has for anything more?
They created a website just for our trip that showed pictures of the lodges and gave lots of information on our activities at each place. They arranged for us to get all our necessary permits, our air travel between Entebbe and an airport near Biwindi, and then later Entebbe and the northern Serengeti and then back to Kilimanjaro. They worked closely with Wild Frontiers that ran the lodges we stayed in, and provided a terrific guide in Uganda who drove us all around Uganda and made sure we were on treks to see gorillas and chimps that we could manage. My travelling companion and I are both 74 years old, and she has COPD, and could only handle a short climb to the gorillas and a slow walk to the chimps, and our overall guide arranged all that. The different safaris, to see gorillas, chimps in Queen Elizabeth Park and in Kigale forest, and then to see the wildebeeste crossing, and all the Serengeti animals were beyond expectations. It was a great trip.

Excellent organizer with a sincere care for the guests.
Chris Worden at the Victoria Falls office did a great plan for our trip. He managed to tick all the boxes on our extensive wish list. The hotel in Vic Falls and the two lodges he chose for us were very different but all very nice.
At Sheerwater Explorer's Village, he chose a nice bungalow. The hotel is newly built and fresh, located within Vic Falls, within walking distance to restaurants, shops and Victoria Falls NP.
Zambesi Sands in Zambesi NP offered a pleasant atmosphere, beautiful scenery, luxurious glamping, excellent food, river tours and knowledgeable guidance during game drives. Among other things we got to see a magnificent herd with buffalo, elephants, lions, bushbuck and lots of bird life.
Deteema Springs in Hwange NP offered a completely different type of landscape that was also magical. Here, too, good company and good food were offered. Although completely different, this camp was also very well organized and the luxurious feeling remained. Game drives were long in the exciting landscape and we saw a lot of animals - kudus, impalas, elephants, giraffes, buffalo, warthogs, hippos and crocodiles to name a few.
I am particularly impressed with how Chris made sure we received information that the airline canceled our flight home. When the internet was mostly missing or weak he still made sure that messages came through to us via radio allowing us to solve the transport.

Magnificent Experience
The communication in planning our safari was excellent, prompt, personal and efficient. Every step of the way we were taken care beyond expectations. The experience itself was an exciting adventure where we felt safe and nurtured all along the way. I could not have been happier.

Very nice family lodge just at the side of river Zambezi
We were very pleased; lovely ackommodations and good food. I liked that it was a family business, it got smaller and more personal. Good experienced guides and a willingness to arrange different activities depending on your interests.

Excellent service
We spent the day at Chobe Park for 2 days, including the daytime safari, the boat ride and the early morning to see the cats. We stayed at the campground at Kawalape Lodge. We were very well attended, since the moment we got contact to know about prices and payment method. Oscar helped us in Zimbabwe by taking us to lunch and shopping. He was at our disposal and allowed us to leave our bags in the office after checking out of the hotel until it was time to board the airport.
We had some issues with errors in billing and booking at the hotel, but were resolved promptly. Super recommend!

Unbelievable experiences in the wilderness of Botswana
This is the third time I have used Zambezi Safari & Travel company. Once again they have exceeded my expectations. They listened to our requirements, put together an itinerary for our approval and then delivered an incredible experience. The lodges chosen were beautiful, both in their setting and designs. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The wildlife was abundant and we saw animals that we never thought we would see. A super, super trip.
