Customized tour, offering maximum flexibility to adjust to daily needs
Easy breezy from booking & arrival through to departure. We had a fantastic experience that was customized to fit our interests & changing needs. We booked a camping safari that took us from Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe to Chobe National Park, Elephant Sands, & Okavango Delta in Botswana. Our camp sites were comfy, with great food, nice accommodations, & near wildlife. Blessing was our guide & ensured that we had the best park guides who were most knowledgeable of local wildlife. Blessing introduced us to the peoples & cultures & we had many long conversations that gave us unique insights. He even introduced us to a rural family where he stopped to offer food & supplies. Some of the group wanted to upgrade to hotels & he accommodated them though at several sites. I highly recommend Africa Zim!

Our month long trip in Africa
We were planing this trip for 9 years and really wanted to make sure that everything goes to our plans. After talking to couple of other operators we have decided to go with Oti and his company. Knowledge and connections these guys have is unbeatable. We have enjoyed every day and would like to give a great feedback.
We would like to thank to Livingston, Oti, Valentin and David and Jacob well done. We just got back to New Zealand but still in Africa with our minds. We will come back again one day. We would rate 6 out of 5 if we could.
Places visited: Masai Mara, Amboseli, Nakuru, Naivasha, Kibale forest, Rwenzori mountains, Queen Elizabeth NP, Jinja and much more...

Highly recommend, an unbelieve experience
We have recently returned from a wonderful 21 day Sunway Safari from Cape Town to Victoria Falls, August 2015. It was the most amazing adventure we have had in our travels around the world. We were on the accommodated tour and the accommodation was always clean and comfortable and in some amazing scenic spots. Although the first night was at the Sweet Lemon Guest House and we were separated from our group as they were in another guest house, we would have preferred to be together in one location for our first night.
Our guide Chris Z was an expert guide, driver and cook. The food was so delicious and healthy and we all joined in with the preparation of the meals. We would even rate the food better than some of the restaurant meals we had. Chris was such fun to be with and his planning was amazing, he gave us a timetable each day but we did not feel rushed at all. He was so knowledgeable and answered all our never ending questions about the country, animals etc. We were so fortunate to see so many animals and birds and loved watching the animals in Etosha and Chobe National Parks and even saw a large number of animals while driving on the roads. The highlight of our trip would be the elephants coming close to our camp at the Okavango Delta. The most memorable occasion was all the polers singing Beautiful Africa on our return from the Delta. Chris always engaged the locals and we had all the polers in the area singing for us. It was just unbelievable. Chris always ensured that our needs were met even going out of his way to arrange an airport transfer at the best price.
Matthew our trainee guide was very knowledgeable on the regions we visited, animals and birds. We were always putting questions to him. He was fun to be with and had some great jokes. He loved his country and enjoyed telling us about and his experiences.
Overall, the Sunway Safari was one of our best travel experiences ever. We highly recommend Sunway Safaris to anyone who is organising a safari in Southern Africa

Review about Tarangire National Park by Andrea
Loved the little elephants! :)

Fantastic!
From the first moment I was really impressed with the Ngorongoro Crater. It's kind of shocking being there in such a huge space surrounded by thousands of wild animals.
We saw from Elephants to lions, lots of zebras and many many more ...
We passed really close to a lion and even saw one eating a zebra, scary!
In total an amazing experience!

The Ultimate African Safari
James and the Natureways team are magnificent. Totally professional in all respects - we could not of wished to be better looked after!
Mana Pools presents the perfect opportunity on land and water to experience up close the animals, birds and flora. James's knowledge, tracking skills and good humor made the safari all the more enjoyable and memorable.
The safari was a true adventure with numerous very close animal encounters - with James, Tony and Campbell on hand to ensure our safety.
It will be hard to beat this safari as a holiday experience.

Absolutely Amazing and Reliable Company
I could not speak more highly of this company and its service. First of all, we dealt with Nicolas when organizing our trip. He was spectacular. He would reply almost always within 24 hours and was always willing to answer our questions or make changes to our itinerary. We were able to tell Nicolas what we wanted and he was able to secure it all--great hotels, gorilla trekking permits, and excursions all for the right price. It could not have been any better.
When we arrived we were also blessed to have, what we thought, as the best guide on earth. Bernard was awesome. I would even recommend asking for him if he is available. He was super informative, always positive, amazingly helpful, and very caring (even stopping on our drives to pick us up drinks and local fruits). If you get the opportunity to have Bernard as your guide, you will not regret it!
Our trip started in Kampala, Uganda and Bernard drove us down to Kigali, Rwanda--making multiple stops on the way. We gorilla trekked in Rwanda and went on a safari in Queen Elizabeth National Park--both of which I would recommend.
All in all, our trip could not have been better. I would absolutely recommend this company.

spectacular 4 day sani pass and drakensberg tour
Hi Rowly, just to thank you for the really fantastic time we had with you during our 3 day tour last week. The Sani Pass was spectacular, it was great being at the Highest Pub in Africa, and the Drakensberg was fantastic. An amazing walk to gudu falls as well.
We will contact you again next year, when we want to go exploring again.
Regards,
Nicole.

We did two safaris with Afroriginal, the first to Tarangire/Ngorongoro and the second to Serengeti.
The service was excellent. We stayed in top of the line places and Faye was extremely knowledgeable about the animals, their characteristics and their behavior. There was hardly any questions he couldn't answer and when he didn't know the answer, he told us and usually had the answer the next day. The only thing I wouldn't do again is Oldupai Gorge. It was $20 a person, and wasn't worth it. The people running the site were uncommunicative, and all of us agreed it was a waste of money and time.
