We loved the day trip to Chobe ! We stayed in Victoria Falls for 3 nights and took this 9 hour day tour to Botswana . The tour included transfers , river cruise , lunch and an 90 minute road safari. We loved it . The only issue was the Zimbabwe entry visa which we had to pay 2x ( double entry visas are not permitted for Canadians) . It was still worth it.

This is the best tour operator, everything was on point. Their guides are amazing. We enjoyed our safari. They are timely.

Best safari i've ever been to. The team was INCREDIBLE and service was amazing. Camping was so comfortable and the food was phenomenal. Leo, our amazing guide, showed us everything we wanted and more (33 lions including them stalking on the savannah, leopard, swimming elephants, and 20+ other animals) - he was an expert spotter and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience and learned a lot about the animals. Genuinely caring and amazing person. Cannot recommend enough.

Pick up at 7.30 return at 6.15 and a full day it was. Morning travel to Botswana. 3 hour river cruise, buffet lunch then 3 hour game drive before returning to Victoia Falls in Zimbabwe. River views and wildlife spectacular. Getting bogged in the Kalahari desert was unexpected but part of a great game drive. Overall....SENSATIONAL

AMAZING. From start to finish Africa Zim Travel were EXCEPTIONAL. We did the 7 Day Hwange, Chobe and Victoria Falls tour (although added an extra day to the end). Pamela walked us through the booking process all over email - tailoring a few things to our needs. We added an additional night to the trip; we had two children (9 and 10) and Pamela secured family rooms at 3 of our 4 hotels; and there was one vegan dietary requirement. None of these were an issue before or during our trip. Pamela suggested switching one of our days in Hwange from two AM/PM tours to one full day tour too. We were wary of a 10 hour day with children so had initially opted for the shorter tours, but we are so thankful that she suggested we do a full day. We saw so much more and children loved it. One thing we hadn't realised, was that we would be assigned a guide who would be with us throughout the trip. We were met at the airport by Stanford - who turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. He has left a mark on our family and we all miss him!! Stanford was responsible for all our transfers and joined us on some of our tours too. We learnt to realise that his presence on the tours ensured a far better experience and we are very grateful for that. He taught us so, so much throughout the trip - not just about the animals, but the culture and life in Zimbabwe and Botswana. He went above and beyond for us during the trip arranging a few extras too. The lodges all exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious. The tours were all fruitful with plenty of sightings and some fantastic Rangers. Everywhere we went felt safe and friendly. The border crossing was smooth. All the pre-trip info covered what we needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!!! This package (and I know they offer others too) was a nice combo. Hwange and Chobe were different and I'm glad we experienced them both. The itinerary was full, and we slept well each night! We added an additional day at the end to enjoy Vic Falls and recover and we're glad we did that. It felt like a lovely end to an active holiday and created a nice balance. Thank you Africa Zim Travel!

The Chobe day trip turned out to be even better than I could ever imagined. After transferring from Victoria falls to Botswana her guy began driving us through The preserve. At first we saw in Impalas as soon afterwards there was a single elephant. Then things began to pick up. A group (herd?) of elephants came walking across the road among the three or four Safari Jeeps. Everything from a bull to a baby came within a very few feet of us and meandered around for a while. We moved along and soon came upon the Lions. It was midday and they did not see too energetic but they did saunter around a bit. A couple of them were lying next to the brush and we pulled up within three or four feet of them for photos. We then saw giraffe in the distance before we headed over for the buffet lunch. Lunch was okay but afterwards we went to our small boat and took to the river. Down the river we saw a hippos by the dozens, elephant feeding along the bank, crocodile, all kinds of birds and of course many Impala. This was a full day which we booked through get your guide with Africa Zim travel. The guy was excellent and the entire experience spectacular.

Absolutely fabulous. Expected this tour to be good after reading all the reviews but it exceeded these expectations. Was picked up by very charming driver ( we picked up 3 other guests) who drove us to the Botswana border. He was most informative and helpful ( as are most Zimbabweans I’ve met). At the border we were picked up by a Botswana company which does the safari. In the morning our very informative guide took us on a land safari. Saw loads of elephants and lions - incredibly close by ( a couple of meters sometimes) giraffes and lots of various antelope, buffalo sorts, lots of birds. Then went to a good buffet lunch on river. ( lovely location) where we then caught our boat ( with the same guide )Our boat was luckily small ( there were some large double deckers) which meant we could again get super close to the animals. Cruising slowly up the river is stunning ( even without animals ) but seeing herds of elephants, water buffalo, crocodiles, antelope sorts,hippos, birds etc is just fabulous. And we came literally in touching distance of the elephants. So what you see in the photos is really true. This day packs in so much, yet is most relaxing, fun experience crossing border, good buffet lunch. And of course the good guides really make it. It’s a brilliant day and excellent value

Good value including lunch. The park is stacking with animals of all kinds and the guide is helpful. Afternoon on the river adds to the variety of game witnessed.

Willtac Tours did an amazing job organizing our Chobe Day Trip from Victoria Falls! Highly recommend this experience.

Great trip. Was well coordinated pick up and drop off between the borders especially crossing over to Botswana and Zimbabwe. There’s also quite a bit of free time to explore Victoria Falls town or go for a helicopter ride (extra cost) if you want. All in all good experience.

Morning was very poor with a guide driving us around the park, but giving very limited information. Afternoon boat trip was good with a friendly knowledgeable guy at the helm, giving info about all the animals Lunch venue was a poor choice, with only barely edible food

everything was ok, contact, trip, organization, very good hotel. Trips to Chobe with VIC are highly recommended I recommend Africa Zim Travel & Tours and especially Pamala's help. She was very supportive.

The entire day was the highlight of our time in Victoria Falls... well, apart from seeing the falls! We saw an abundance of animals on both the river and land safaris: hippos, crocs, elephants, birds, zebra, giraffe and LIONS, to name a few. Our guides were well informed and personable, and strove to make our experience unforgettable. Lunch at the hotel was delicious and I had one of the best curries I've ever had. I would do this again! Oh, and the border crossing was typical Africa and I loved it. Just relax and go with the flow. You'll be well taken care of!

If this is your first game drive/safari, you may like it. If you experience REAL game drives/safaris with another company, you will know it this one is nothing but a tourist trap. The boat ride was good, we saw a lot of animals. Lunch was ok, not great, but better than a sandwich. Now, the truck tour - AWFUL. One seat was broken, seats were hard as a rock, views were obstructed by very high and almost level seats. Anyone in the second or back row can't see anything in front. The driver does not say much nor does the driver look for animals. It was like an amusement ride. We drove parallel to the river, the same river we cruised on, therefore saw the same animals. Then he drove parallel to that road, about 100 meters away, no animals. They can pretty much guarantee you will see elephants and then that's all they are interested in showing you. The rest of the time is driving along the river roads, not into the reserve any farther. The driver will say it's not the right time of year, or there has been a lot of rain, whatever excuse he thinks of. I asked why we didn't go into Chobe, and instead stayed along the river. He said that's what they (meaning all companies) do. Funny thing, we saw lots of trucks when we entered, but no other trucks running back and forth along the same area. They were all deeper into Chobe. All this company does is drive you along the river, make sure you see the elephants and tell you they can't drive any other roads. Extremely disappointing. And don't forget the seats are hard as a rock and you can't see over them. The driver never stopped to explain anything, Go with another company. I saw another review that said the seat was broken from September, so they can't be bothered fixing or maintaining their vehicles. I felt like nothing more than cattle being rounded up. Lesson learned - with this company, you are nothing but $$. Put you in the back of a very uncomfortable truck with limited viewing and hard seats, give you a (less then) two hour ride running on roads parallel to the river then take you back. No talk, only lecture about how you won't see anything but elephants. The reason you won't is because they don't take you into Chobe, just along the water. Kruger was a much different experience.

Zim worked in conjunction with our Tanzania tour operator Sursee Safari's, to put together a epic 18 day safari. It combined Tanzania, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Victoria Falls. Blessing our transfer guide made sure everything went smoothly, watched out for my 78 year old mother, and added bungee jumping for my 21 year old daughter at the last minute at Victoria Falls, and still made everything work out effortlessly.
