An experience of a lifetime, with local guides to make it authentic and seamless!
Our recent tour through Zimbabwe’s Victoria Falls and Botswana’s Chobe National Park was simply spectacular, and a huge part of that was thanks to our incredible local guide, Pamela. From start to finish, Pamela went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. She knew every inch of Victoria Falls and shared stories and insights that only a true local could provide, which made our exploration so much richer.
Pamela’s warmth and friendliness made us feel completely at home from the moment we arrived. She handled all the logistics so seamlessly that we could relax and fully enjoy every moment. Her attention to detail was amazing—she even took us to a hidden gem of a coffee spot in Victoria Falls, where we enjoyed some of the best local brews in a cozy atmosphere.
Our time in Chobe National Park was equally amazing, with wildlife encounters we’ll remember forever. We also visited Elephant Sands and the Okavango Delta. You would think traveling around the country in a van would be tough, as the distance is great, but Pamela was amazing. She handled the roads like a pro, made stops for us to rest, and shared stories to make the time go by. She even introduced us to local music which we blasted throughout our road trip. The trip in itself is an experience like no other, but it truly was made better with Pamela. So if you are going to Zimbabwe and/or Botswana, make sure to choose Africa Zim Travel & Tours and ask for Pamela. I can't recommend her highly enough! This was more than just a tour—it felt like exploring with a friend. Thank you, Pamela, for an experience of a lifetime!

Willing to go above and beyond for you
Africa Zim Travel & Tours were incredible throughout the entire process of the holiday. From booking, to the lead up with our many questions, when we arrived and throughout our trip. They were willing to help and provide as much info as possible and were always very quick with their responses. We were lucky to be paired with our wonderful guide Stanford who was waiting for us at Victoria Falls Airport. Stanford is made for this job he is so knowledgeable and welcoming. He became part of the family by day 2 of the trip. We were a family of 6 and this will be a trip we never forget and that’s thanks to Africa Zim Travel & Tours! We would and already have been recommending them to everyone!

Professionals, trustworthy. We recommend it 100%.
I found Africa Zim Travel & Tours on the Internet based on the opinions of other tourists. And it was a great decision. Before departure, I kept in touch with Pamela by e-mail. They answered my questions quickly. She was patient. I was a little worried whether someone would be waiting for us at the airport. Unnecessarily. Stanford was waiting for us and took care of us. And it was He who decided about the success of our trip. A great guide, speaker, driver and, of course, companion. A man of great culture, well dressed, always on site. Standford made our first trip to Africa wonderful and safe. Thank you and best regards. And we are already thinking about another trip to Africa (Namibia), of course accompanied by Stanford. We love Africa and its people. We highly recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours. And Stanford :). Monika, Magda, Zbyszek i Zbyszek. April/May 2024- Zimbwawe/Botswana.

Excellent!!
We had a wonderful experience with Africa Zim!! Our guide Pam S. excellent! She was organized, had great recommendations and was easy to talk to throughout the trip. We did the 8 day tour starting in Victoria Falls and ending in Maun / Okavango Delta. The falls were beautiful and we saw a lot of animals including elephants, giraffes, zebra, hippos and lions. We really liked the different types of safari tours (drive, boat & walk). The boat tour in Chobe ended up being our favorite it was a good way to see animals close. The accommodations were all very nice. Pam was flexible if we needed to stop along the way and helped us add an extra tour. Thank you Africa Zim and Pam S.!!

Very well organised, efficient and good value
We had 6 days in Zimbabwe with Africa Zim. Planning begin pre-covid and we finally got to take the trip in December. During this time they were efficient and organised with communication and always reliable. We spent 6 days with Kosmas and visited Vic Falls, Hwange, Gt Zimbabwe & Harare. Vic Falls was amazing and is highly recommended. The wet season meant that Hwange was a bit disappointing although the Hwange Lodge hotel was great and we saw lots of elephants at the water hole. Gt Zimbabwe was a good stop although it's a long drive to get there. Zimbabwe is a friendly, welcoming and safe place to visit that is pretty well set up for visitors. Africa Zim is recommended and we really enjoyed our tour.

Amazing selection of activities and places where to sleep
Positive aspects: selection of the places where we slept was all amazing (apart from Cresta, too empty and "average"). Food was always outstanding, especially at Chobe. We loved all the activities proposed and what we did. We appreciated a lot the guides at Chobe, at Salty Pan and at Okavango. They were very skilled and told us a lot of interesting information.
To be improved: we would have not left so many times empty, we would have exploited better the time by doing even more stuff, this tour could have easily be done in 6 days instead of 9. The guides were nice and sweet guys, but one of them would have been sufficient. We were expecting more outgoing guides, who could be able to entertain us a bit more. Blessing and Sheila are great people but very shy and we believe it was not necessary for them to be with us at the salty pans activities... we could have done it on our own enjoying the rest of the group we were traveling with.
Overall very positive, we already recommended your tour to other friends of us.

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....

All aspects of the tour were great from booking to our time under the care of Africa Zim Tours.
Our communication with Africa Zim was first rate right from our initial contact with Sheila and all aspects of the tour were as expected and more. Our tour guide, Blessing, was a most friendly and efficient tour director of our time and always ensured that we were prepared and that we were all at the right place at the right time. He went out of his way to make sure we could incorporate our various requests during our 4 day trip. Our accommodations at Bayete Lodge and Hwange Safari Lodge suited us perfectly and we enjoyed all the aspects of both - both so picturesque with good food and friendly people. Victoria Falls was a wonderful experience despite the rain and the Boma dinner was so much fun. Our game drives at Hwange were amazing and we saw a wide variety of animals and birds. Our game drive guide, who Blessing arranged, was most informative about the animals and birds that we encountered and there was never a rush when we met up with the various wildlife. It was certainly a trip of a lifetime. Thanks you African Zim!
A trip packed with exciting animals, beautiful birds, friendly and helpful and efficient people.
Dealings with the firm were most reliable and helpful. The facilities were great. The tour exceeded all expectations. The value was outstanding. We saw over 113 species of birds as well as wonderful Lions, Elephants, Impala, Puku, Water Monitor, Hippo, Crocodile, Buffalo, Giraffe, Jackal, Warthog, Sand Snake, Steenbuck, Mongoose and Red Lechwe. I strongly recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours.

Victoria Falls and Hwange NP-fabulous trip
I found Blessing and his company on Safari Bookings and were delighted with the itinerary he planned for us, given our limited time. From his greeting of us at the airport, we felt so very comfortable with him and looked forward to our few days. The choice of the Bayete Lodge in Vic Falls suited us perfectly and this was a great base. Blessing ensured we were happy with our room and advised us what to expect in the next few days as well as giving us ideas for any downtime we had.
Onto Hwange National Park and once again we were driven there and Blessing settled us into the accommodation at Hwange Safari Lodge. This wasn’t his first choice of accommodation, but as his original place was booked out, he used this hotel. It was absolutely perfect for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here also. The game drives that he organised for us were fabulous also and we were the only ones in the vehicle, and we had a great guide also.
All communication with Blessing and his team was easy and prompt and I would certainly use him again as well as suggest to any friends to contact him if travelling to this part of the world.
Thanks for a great time Blessing, you certainly made our trip to Africa start in the best way possible. We hope to meet you again some day.
