Nice managed Safari Tour in the Kruger
The Communication with Joseph worked really well, he gave ous good advices ans helped ous planning our trip. our Guide, Oskar, was a really nice und friendly guy, we had a lot of fun with him. Every detail we booked worked in reality. If I go again to Afrika, I‘ll book a tour at Josef.

amazing safari
We saw a lot of animals on the safari. The sable was very cool to see. The overlook where we had a homemade lunch was relaxing and provided unobstructed views of the animals.

we did a three day trip into botswana chobe park with Josef and his subteam from botswana. we enjoyed very much and saw many many animals. the nights in the tent were a bit scary, but there was always control of the situation by our guides

Vic Falls Spectacular
We did the 6 day Victoria Falls spectacular, which was personalised for our travel dates. Joseph was quick to respond to all emails, and put our minds at ease heading on our trip. Once we arrived our tour guide Frank was excellent, he looked after us and made sure we were comfortable and enjoyed every part of our stay. Each tour we went on was private, which made the experience that much better. I cannot speak highly enough of Frank, as well as the other guides at both Chobe and Hwange National Park. Really hope we can travel with this company again soon

Good One-Day Chobe Trip
While we were in Victoria Falls, we wanted to do a short safari at either Chobe or Hwange, so we chose the full-day trip to Chobe with African Coast. The trip was very well organized, including the border crossings, and we saw plenty of wildlife on our route. Obviously, you won't see as much as you would on a multi-day safari that goes deeper into the park, but for a same-day trip, everyone in our group really had a good time. I recommend African Coast highly for this itinerary.

Custom tailored private tour in South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia.
The private tour was set up to fit our schedule and interests. It included some of the best national parks in each country, Victoria Falls, Namibian desert. Joseph is a hard working knowledgeable guide who will make your journey a memorable experience. Thank you.

Poorly organised, poor communications which only improve near the end of tour.
Bad start to tour. Pickup came about 30mins late for pickup from CPT airport. No assurance about daily tour itinerary and dinner reservations. I had to asked every tour leaders lookalike at the door of my hotel to find my allocated tour. Went for prepaid dinner but restaurant rejected us for no reservation or info on our dinner after travelling a great distance to the restaurant in a foreign land. Everyday, we had to be on our toes to find our allocated tours searching the hall of the hotel and every hotels we stayed we had to make sure all meal and tour reservations were in order without knowing the time and location of meetup! I had to called the outsourced travel agency after I finally figured out who they were myself from the reception to arrange myself the time and place. At times, even this travel agent was unsure of my paid itineraries which further added on to our already messy and poorly arranged tour. Tour only improved at JNB with a dedicated tour leader in charge of us with clearer instructions. Overall, really bad start with so much fear and uncertainty that really ruin our holiday.

Posted on Dec 9, 2017Dear Max
Thank you for your review and highlighting your comments for your South African tour, and we really appreciate your review and we will try our level best to have a private guide in Cape town, as the usual company we engaged let us down, though we had our hands on in Johannesburg hence the change in service delivery there after, we will definitely change our Cape town ways of operation and in future we will be hands on to avoid a similar situation, and we really appreciate your reviews and we apologies for the hick cups caused for your holiday.
Yours faithfully
Joseph Moyo
Operation manager.

Frienship with Rhinos
I don't have too much to say. The walking rhino safari exceeded all my expectations and it was an unforgetable experience. The citytour in Livingstone and the visit to the Chief Mukuni Village were also very interesting thanks to the high professionalism and friendliness of our guide Joseph

Fun and reliable
Our experience with the Chobe safari was excellent. Our guide went out of his way to find all of the animals that we should see in Chobe. We had a hard time finding the baboons, but our guide did not give up and at the end of our safari we found many baboons. There were moms and babies, baboons in trees, by the water, and all over. We saw lions, giraffes, eagles, hippos, antelope, and many other things. We also did the photo tour on the boat at sunset. The highlight was watching the elephants cross the river to an island in the middle. All in all our trip was great and memorable.

Great Safari experience
My fiancee and I used African Coast Travel & Tours for a 6 days Safari in Vic Falls and Botswana. Joseph (out tour guide) was really knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. With his knowledge of the area, we were able to get a free updrade in Vic Fall for our hotel and were able to book extra activities without any problem.
All the guides in the Safari were knowledgeable and gave us a lot of explanations on the animals and plants we saw. Plus, in Hwange, the guide was able to track a lion only with the paw prints on the ground (This was really nice to track the animal to see them).
The accommodations, food and activities were as described and we really enjoy it. I strongly recommend this Safari and this tour company
