Highly recommend Africa Zim for your next Safari!
My wife and I took a 7 day Safari lodge tour booked through Blessing from Africa Zim for our honeymoon. He set us up with a local guide from Zimbabwe, Mthokozisi, who was extremely professional, and really fun to talk to and learn from! We basically had a private tour guide who took us to the most recommended attractions from Victoria Falls through Chobe and into the Okavango. Of course the game rides we're in small groups of 4-8 people but Mthokozisi would be available whenever needed, took us from place to place, helped us figure out how to swap some plans last minute since we really wanted to take be a helicopter tour over the Okavango (so worth it!) and wealth of knowledge.

Victoria Falls to the Okavango Delta: Great guide, AMAZING honeymoon/trip!
This was the most amazing trip I have ever been on. We enjoyed every minute of it and Mthokozisi (Mucho!) was amazing!! (We went on an 8 day, 7 night, safari to: Victoria Falls, Chobe, Elephant Sands, and the Okavango Delta. The only thing we added to the package was a helicopter flight over the Delta.)
We learned so much and saw so many animals. The only thing we knew when planning our trip was that we wanted to go to the Okavango Delta and we were really struggling to find an affordable trip. One safari company told us we needed to double our budget if we wanted to get there. NOT Africa Zim! Their safari packages were affordable, planned out wonderfully, and flexible depending on what you were looking for and how long you had. We went so many amazing places we wouldn't have known about if not for Blessing and his amazing team. It was truly once in a lifetime.
A review wouldn't be complete without a huge shout out to Mthokozisi!!!! Mucho was an AMAZING guide! My husband really wanted to see zebras and it wasn't looking good for a while there, but while we were driving eagle eye Mucho spotted some and immediately (and safely) pulled over, opened the sunroof and made sure we had a moment to look at them. He really cared about what we were there to see and was so knowledgable and professional. Mucho answered EVERY question we asked, from what was happening with the countries politics to different things about his culture, home and family. He was so wonderful.
Thank you Mthokozisi, Blessing, and Africa Zim as a whole for an AMAZING AMAZING adventure and honeymoon. We will never forget it and would/will recommend Africa Zim to anyone and everyone going to Africa.

Blessing and Tendaiy run a well organized top notch organization.
The entire 9 day trip from Vic Falls to Maun ran seamlessly. We were a party of 9. We saw and did so many cool things, lots of variety and things to do and see. Blessing is very experienced and a great tour leader. He always has the interests of his clients in mind and works to make everything run smoothly. I would highly recommend Africa Zim to anyone interested in the trips he offers.

We could not have ask for a better tour operator than Africa Zim Travel. So organised
Everything was done perfectly. Blessing was in contact the whole time and we shifted our dates so many times and he still helped us. We had a wonderful time and experience. We did the 9days camping tour from the Vic Falls to Maun in Botswana. The whole trip was excellent. We had a good time with our tour guide Fungai very clued up and helpful. Our highlight was Elephant sands sitting at the camp fire and looking at the elephants drinking water. I will refer everyone to Africa Zim Travel they did match all our expectations and more.

Africa Zim provided thorough and thoughtful service, and a spectacular life-time experience!
Big thank you to Blessing and Tendayi!
The 9 day/8 night tour, from Victoria Falls, through Chobe National Park, Elephant Sands, and the Okavango Delta, was well organized and an incredible experience. The lodges, tent stays and meals were very satisfactory. So happy to have had the mokoro and nature walks in our tour! An exceptional value. I hope to travel with Blessing and Tendayi again, and highly recommend Africa Zim Travel and Tours!

Excellent experience throughout.
It was easy booking this tour as Blessing and Sheila communicated with us so well.
We felt ‘looked after’ from the initial booking right up until the end of the tour, which was excellent. We enjoyed the spectacular Victoria Falls and saw many animals on the safaris (including lions, elephants, hippos, giraffes, buffaloes, crocodiles, zebras, baboons, impala and many beautiful birds) which were a perfect mix of land and water based.
Muto was an excellent safari guide with a wealth of knowledge. He was punctual and reliable with a great sense of humour.
We would definitely recommend this tour.

8-day Victoria Falls to the Okavango Delta: Great guide, wonderful experience!
A BIG THANK YOU to Blessing, Mthokozisi and Pamela! We took a 8-day Safari tour and it was a memorable experience for us. Blessing and Pamela responded very promptly to all our email and queries and everything during the trip was well-organised and planned efficiently. It was a good itinerary and met our expectations. Mthokozisi was our guide and he looked after us extremely well. He was warm, friendly and we had lots of good conversations during the entire tour. He even went the extra step and taught us about the culture, customs, traditions, local knowledge and history of the countries and looked out for animals while driving. I strongly recommend this tour operator for those who are keen on any of their packages. Well done, Africa Zim Travel and Mthokozisi!!

Amazing experience and absolutely well organized!!!
everything from the beginning to end was absolutely well organized and we had an amazing time in Simbabwe and Botsuana.
Moto, our guide, was such a nice person, who was very friendly, jolly and we had lots of fresh conversations during our one week trip!He explained a lot about the people, country, traditions and of course the animals. He was pretty good in spotting animals while driving. All our accomodations, especially Safari Bush Lodge at Chobe National Park, were really good. Elephant Sand was also a memorable experience....
All in all - our expectations were completly fulfilled and it was an amazing time!!!Thank you so much....

9 day, 8 night Vic falls - Okavango Delta
Having never been on a safari before, I had plenty of questions before even booking the trip and Pamela was always quick to answer any questions I had, I was very impressed with the level of communication before even beginning the tour. As we were on a budget, we choose the camping option, the tents all felt safe in the various lodges we stayed in, they were all raised, spacious, and almost all had electricity/ fans in them (with the exception of the 1 night spent camping in the Okavango Delta Bush). Moto was a great guide, he had lots of knowledge regarding local animals, plants, cultures, etc and was great at spotting different animals as we drove from place to place, we really enjoyed our time with him. The only issue we encountered was the first place we stayed in Vic Falls one dinner and one breakfast that were supposed to have been covered we ended up having to pay for, but it was quickly resolved and we were reimbursed so overall it was not a big deal. The highlights of the trip was definitely Elephant Sands, sitting at the fire at night watching the elephants drinking water so close to us. Chobe National Park was also another of my highlights. I was worried about the camping aspect of it before I left, but it was all a very comfortable experience and I would recommend Africa Zim and this tour.
