Very well organised, punctual, reliable and had a fantastic experience
We had a fantastic time, especially the amazing Victoria Falls and the spectacular Chobe NP were memorable experiences. The Okavango was on our bucket list and we can now tick that box. Webster and his team were fabulous. Punctual and flexible. Very responsive to all my questions (I had booked more than 15 months before). I have now received my certificate for eating mopane worms at the Bomo dinner. Thanks to Webster. Nothing was too much trouble. Always on time and punctual. And his van and 4WD were in good condition and reliable and minimised the impact of all the potholes. We look forward to seeing more of Zimbabwe and surrounds and wouldn't hesitate to use Sambawezi (DK Tours and Safaris) again.

Fully personalised service with superb communication
An Unforgettable Adventure with Ways of Africa.
We just returned from our Kenyan safari, and I can say without hesitation that choosing Ways of Africa was the best decision we made for this trip. From the initial planning stages to the final drop-off at the airport, the experience was seamless, professional, and deeply personal.
While the wildlife sightings were obviously breathtaking, what truly set this team apart was their exceptional communication and flexibility.
Why Ways of Africa Stands Out
* **Proactive Communication:** Before we even left home, the team at Ways of Africa was incredibly responsive. They answered every "what if" and "how to" question with patience and detail, ensuring we felt fully prepared for the bush.
* **Ultimate Flexibility:** Travel rarely goes exactly to plan, but they handled every pivot with grace. Whether we wanted to spend an extra hour watching a pride of lions or needed to shift our morning departure time to catch up on sleep, our guide and the coordination team made it happen without a second thought.
* **Expertly Tailored Experience:** They didn't just stick to a rigid schedule. They listened to our preferences in real-time, adjusting the pace of the day to make sure we were getting the most out of every moment.
The Verdict
If you are looking for an operator that treats your trip like a **bespoke journey** rather than a cookie-cutter tour, look no further than Ways of Africa.
Their ability to adapt on the fly while keeping us informed and comfortable made this a stress-free, once-in-a-lifetime experience.
**Highly recommended for anyone who values top-tier service and a truly personalised touch!**

Best way to explore the Okavango Delta!
Our 3-Day-Okavango Delta Safari was very well organized, Okavango Exploration responded quickly to our requests and was able to accomodate us on a very short notice, offering a great experience in the Delta. By connecting us to the members of the local community in the Delta, who supported the trip as polers and guides, we were able to learn about life in the Delta in addition to experiencing the wildlife and hearing about medical and other uses of the plants and trees in the Delta. Our guide shared his great knowledge while leading the bushwalks on the island or taking us out on a sunset cruise into the Delta. We truly enjoyed our safari with Okavango Explorations and the team and would like to recommend this trip to anybody who would like to spent a few days in the Okavango Delta.
Excellent
Kerry Ririe at Pembury Tours and I go back years and I have used them whenever I am planning a trip to Southern Africa to visit family and friends. We are not the easiest customer often choosing our own destinations with high demand. Kerry is exceptionally informative and helpful making the process seem so seamless. I can highly recommend Pembury Tours.

Chuke Adventure: Tarangire Wildlife Experience with landscape, elephants, giraffes and more.
During a recent visit to Tarangire National Park, We went exploring with my friend and a family of four to observe wildlife and better understand how different animals live and interact in their natural environment.
One of the most interesting things we noticed was how elephants organize themselves. The males were either alone or in small groups, while the females stayed together in family units, clearly separated from the males. It was a strong visual example of how their social structure works in the wild.
We also saw giraffes, including mothers with their calves, moving calmly across the landscape. Seeing the young ones alongside adults gave a sense of how stable and supportive the environment is for their growth. In addition, there were monkeys spread across the area, actively moving and adapting to their surroundings.
Some of the animals we saw felt very familiar, almost like characters from The Lion King. We spotted warthogs like Pumbaa moving around and feeding, as well as hornbill birds, similar to Zazu, recognizable by their distinct beaks and alert behavior. These comparisons made the experience more relatable, even though seeing them in real life gives a much deeper understanding than any film.
Overall, the trip was a great way to connect what we often see in media with actual wildlife behavior, while also appreciating the natural balance and diversity of the ecosystem in Tarangire National Park.

Great knowledge and explanations plus ease of logistics
Makes what seems complex easy (ie seeing both sides with passport controls and drives across) and very good knowledge of the zimbabwean side of the falls

Fantastic Safari with an extraordinary wildlife experience
We highly recommend our driver, Emanual. His exceptional courtesy and friendliness, as well as his in-depth knowledge of the wildlife in the Serengeti, made our safari an unforgettable experience. He could spot animals from a great distance and safely bring us close enough to take numerous beautiful souvenir photos. In addition, the vehicle was cleaned every day, and we always had plenty of food and drinks on board. This is particularly noteworthy given that, due to the rainy season and the fact that Emmanuel helped pull another vehicle out of the mud twice, the vehicle was completely caked in mud. We were impressed by this exceptional service. Furthermore, we noticed that Emmanuel was highly regarded by all the other drivers and was also seen as a leader due to his wise foresight. In our view, he is an extremely responsible and prudent guide and driver with an enormous knowledge of wildlife and nature. We were impressed by his careful handling of the vehicle and its passengers. We felt safe and well taken care of at all times.

10/10 Safari Adventure – Couldn’t Have Asked for a Better Guide!
Our weekend safari trip to Murchison Falls was absolutely unforgettable, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, David. From start to finish, he was incredibly professional, organized and flexible, making sure everything ran smoothly.
We were a group of 8 students, and he was extremely patient with us throughout the entire trip, always keeping a positive attitude and making sure everyone felt comfortable and included. He also made us feel very safe at all times, which allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the experience.
He went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed - great food, drinks and an overall fantastic experience. David was always open to our requests and adapted the trip to suit us, which made it feel very personal.
His eye for spotting wildlife was seriously impressive - especially when it came to finding lions! Thanks to him, we got to experience some truly special moments.
10/10, would highly recommend!

We contacted Robevin Safaris to join a safari group to the Mara during Easter weekend, and Belinda was amazing in organising everything for us with very short notice.
