Very proficient and professional.
We could not ask for a more pleasurable and hassle free experience. From getting picked up at the airport to getting dropped off, with everything in between. Our coordinator Pamela was excellent throughout the process and our personal guide Blessing was phenomenal! This was one of our top trips of all time.

Prompt and thorough responses. Good operators were used for the activities.
We did Vic Falls tour and the Chobe national park (budget camping) tour. Blessing and Pam coordinated all the activities very well. The operators selected (boat cruise, boma dinner, camping tour) were all good. Vic Fall was a self guided tour. Kalahari tour operated the Chobe camping portion. They were excellent (the safari guide and the cook/camp staff). We saw elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, impala, sable antelope (a rare one) lions (14!), a leopard on a kill (eating a guineafowl or some bird), hippos, crocodiles,etc. Hot oatmeal was served at 6am by this crew! Our other early am game drives from other tours only provided biscuits/coffee/tea. The sunset boat cruise had a nice snack (chicken skewer, samosa, etc). My daughter was pretty much full and ate very little for dinner. The pick ups were prompt. The last airport transfer pick up at Kasane (Botswana) was late. I whatsapp'ed Pam and she tried to locate the driver immediately. I really appreciated that she tried to chase down the driver. The Nguni lodge was nice too. Overall, everything went well. Africazim was reliable and provided prompt responses throughout the planning and execution process. I recommend it.

More than expected
Our trip was a camp for 2 nights / 3 days in Botswana Chobe National Park included boat cruise and game drive. Pick up at the meeting point in Victoria falls was at time and very helpful and responsive at the border .
Awesome experience with Leo our guide. He is an excellent driver and he has an incredible knowledge of the bush. I really appreciated his kindless with a 7 years kid. He plans very well the tour, so you can see many animals even the uncommon.
The staff at the camp was top with great food and great experience to camp.
You have to no worries , all is included with affordable price and it worth money offer to you an unforgettable experience.
Thank you for all.

They were fantastic! Everyone was very knowledgable and accommodating to our group.
SO AMAZING! We had just done a week-long safari in Kenya, so weren't sure whether we would want another one in Botswana. We were so glad we did! In particular, the water safari was unreal. We were able to get very close to swimming elephants. Absolutely unforgettable experience

Amazing experience, outstanding guide
Have already shared Africa Zim's contact info with friends along with highest of recommendations! The hotels/lodges they found were A+, with a special shout out to Nata Lodge, Botswana, as our favorite of the properties y'all selected, and the giant buffet at Cresta Maun also deserves a compliment. Best of the destinations was a day in a flat-bottom canoe in the Okavango Delta - sheer bliss. Our trip guide, Cosmos, was aces - like a member of our extended family from day one. We are in the midst of planning a cross-country tour in the U.S. soon and sure wish Cosmos could join us here! Eager to return to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Botswana one day, but only if we can re-hire Cosmos :) Thanks for the trip of a lifetime, and a lifetime of memories!

Accessible, flexible, great at responding and clarifying any queries.
So we chose Africa Zim Travel as their itinerary was pretty spot on at a really reasonable price. I reached out and had great communication throughout. Blessing was awesome at prompt responses, adjusting our schedule to suit us.
On arriving at the airport he was there to collect us, went out of his way to sort out requests for extra activities and was generally lovely and welcoming.
Nothing ever seemed too much trouble, we had his number for any queries and the whole trip went with out hitch!

Good value for money and professional service
Very professional assistance provided by Blessing and Pamela from the office. Most importantly great driver/guide Mutho who took care of us for 12 days of our road trip through Zimbabwe and Botswana

Excellent guides, extremely helpful, always available to assist
Blessing and the team where great to deal with from the start, having never visited prior they booked what I needed at a very affordable rate, ensured I had the correct currency conversion, on arrival we where greeted with friendly smiles polite English speaking guides and air-conditioned vehicles in good order.
The river cruise we where booked on through them was amazing and once again very affordable and on time with great guides.
Day trip into chobe ( Bostwana) was great and we where walked through all boarder tranfers and assisted into all transport that was older but clean and reliable.
All guides where knowledgeable and at no time did we feel unsafe.
Highly recommended them.

Excellent organization and choices of lodgings and activities.
Our tour operator, Muto, was really fantastic. He made sure we experienced a very easy trip and Africa Zim Tours provided a well rounded itinerary. We did the 12 nights in Zimbabwe and Botswana and Muto was there for us every step of the way from the time we stepped off the plane in Victoria Falls to the flight back to Johannesburg from Maun. We stayed in very nice lodges, luxury tents and rustic bush tenting for a well rounded experience. We covered a decent amount of the upper Zimbabwe/Botswana area so we were able to see a really nice assortment of wildlife and terrain. He even took us to a Vulture Feeding that we had heard about that was not on the itinerary. We felt safe at all times and our accommodations and food were really good. You get a lot of value for your money and we highly recommend taking this tour especially for your first time to these countries. The guides are local and they know how to communicate well with the locals to provide you with the best of services!

Very professional tour operator. Everything went to plan. Saw 4 of the BIG FIVE!
We had an absolutely fantastic time. Safari of a lifetime! We had a 3 day safari with 2 nights in the Chobe National Park with all the animals. All food was included. Was picked up at the hotel in Victoria Falls and driven to Kasane, Botswana. Early afternoon Chobe River boat safari - words cannot describe - birds, buffalo, hippos, crocs... The following three days and two nights was the land safari in the National Park close to the Chobe river. Again, words cannot describe! It was like Jurassic Park! Kennedy, our very knowledgeable and friendly guide, was fantastic and explained everything about the animals and birds. He worked very hard and made every effort for us to see as many animals and birds as possible. We saw many lions, water buffalo, elephants, impala, giraffes, baboons, monkeys, jackals, eagles, vultures, crocs, many many beautiful birds etc. The camping experience was fantastic also, No fence, just lights around the camp at night. The animals keep themselves to themselves. Going to sleep and getting up in the morning with the bush noises and singing birds! An elephant passed by one night and a giraffe was seen near the camp in the morning. Thoroughly recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours!
