The tour was excellent and our tour guide was warm, knowledgeable and attentive to details. During the tour he even offered to keep my water and sweater for me. On top of that, he drove us into town to an ATM at our request. The view of the fall was amazing and being an elderly tourist, our tour guide made it pleasant and comfortable for us to enjoy both the spectaculouss view and the leisurely walk. I would recommend this tour to anyone with no reservation!

After having failed to see a Cheetah in the wild, I approached Savannah Safaris and Tours to help me fulfill my dream. Emmelyn of Savannah suggested that I visit Chitabe Camp in Okavango. I stayed in Chitabe Camp for 3 nights and I must admit that it was the best Safari experience I ever I had. I could see a pride of 19 lions, apart from 4 one month old cubs, 3 Cheetahs,4 sightings of leopards, baby hippos/giraffes and a wide variety of birds. Savannah Safaris made my trip a memorable one with absolutely no hiccups anywhere during my stay and Emmelyn was always a call away to help me when needed. Chitabe camp is a beautiful place located in the midst of the park. The staff is very friendly and the guide Tank was eager to see that I have good sightings Thank you Emmelyn, for a great experience

Our guide, Martin, was so knowledgeable about the birds and took us to a few places to find as many types of birds as possible. He was fun to talk with and gave us lots of great information about the birds and Zambia.

A very interesting Tour with a lot of experiences. Many Animals and a good Guide. A good taxi Driver to the Border - very punctually!

My trip was just the best 1 day safari arranged through Savanah. They looked after us fantastically and we saw loads of animals and birds. I have travalled a great deal but my combination of DEvils Pool, 3 days rafting the Zambize and Botswana safari made this my best ever adventure. Lunch on our Safari was great. 4 of us went all English and we all tipped our guides, Sad others did not, the guides were 110% fantastic. Please if you go help the guides more by showing your appreciation . Barry WAldock, Bedfordshire, England.

I had searched the internet for weeks looking for a morning birding safari on the Zambia side for our last morning of our 4 day Victoria Falls visit. We were also needing to get to the LVI airport that afternoon for our flight to JoBurg. When I emailed Savannah Southern our needs, they quickly responded, offering my wife and I a 6 hr birding safari and delivery to the airport at the end of the safari for a very reasonable price. We were met promptly at the Zambian border at 6:00 am by Chiinga, our birding guide and within minutes we were hunting birds. It turns out the Chiinga is the birding Guru for Victoria Falls and surrounding areas. He helped us find most of our target birds and some we weren’t even aware of in the area. We are so happy that we discovered Savannah Southern. Give them a chance to meet your safari and transportation needs in Vic. Falls!

My wife and I booked very experienced bird guide Chiinga for an expedition to the Machile area to search for the rare Zambian endemic Black-cheeked Lovebird. It was a long day (in our 4 wheel drive vehicle - absolutely essential even during the dry season): we met Chiinga at 04.30 and got back to Livingstone at 20.00 but it was very successful with great views of the lovebirds and enjoyable too. Chiinga was great company and clearly cares greatly about Zambia's birds and environment and is working with the villagers in the area where the lovebird lives to develop ecotourism there. So, if you are a keen birder and want to see one of Zambia's two endemic bird species, Chiinga and Savannah Southern Safaris is very highly recommended - in fact essential!

After seeing this walking safari advertised on TripAdvisor, I booked a a while in advance. It surpassed my expectations. It was a refreshing change to have a walking safari. We had a brilliant guide who passed on his knowledge of animals, birds, plants, dung etc. So memorable to see the rhinos up close including a couple of young ones, also our first sight of zebras, gnus and numerous other birds, animals which were also seen on the drive into the park. Savannah Southern Safaris also arranged transport from our hotel in Victoria Falls for us and this all worked out very smoothly. I would definitely recommend.

I have visited Iguazu, Victoria Falls and Niagara Falls (rated in this order). Althought Iguazu is much more spectacular than Victoria, still Victoria Falls are well worth a visit. I had to travel from Israel to South Africa and made the detour by Zimbabwe just to see the falls and it was worthwhile. Then I crossed the border to Zambia and took the flight to South Africa. There are lots of contradictory opinions in the web on the requirement for yellow fever vacination when arriving from Zambia to South Africa. I took the trouble to go to a traveller's vaccination center and find out. There is no such requirement.

Local friendly guides, may it be in the bush, in a village or - of course - to the Victoria Falls, it is worthwhile to go with one of them and be informed according to your whishes. Even in the low season - you are well served. The office is located in the National Art Gallery Livingstone, which is worth to be visited! It gives a good survey about modern Zambian Fine Arts works.

Having written a very long review which somehow disappeared, this is now a short version - so you will just have to get down to Livingstone and go birding with Chiinga if you want to have a really good day! Started with the rhino walk (for my non birding friend), which meant missing the more (bird) productive end of Mosi oa tunya park, but still found some few birds around the water hole. After seeing various wildlife (see my review of the rhino walk) we headed on to Munga Lodge for lunch and birding, where the second only day of rains of the new season prevented us seeing too much. Nice lunch. Then on to the sewage ponds and Chiinga persevered on the scope until he succeeded finding me an Allen's gallinule or two amongst the hundreds of purple swamp hens. A couple of confusing falcons shot passed at a distance, the only one seen well was a peregrine, but the others were not easily determined! More rain and a move on to the Nyimba hotel, where a second lifer of a half collared kingfisher was most welcome, and some stunning close views of Schalow's turaco noisily moving through the trees. Overall around a hundred species including a couple ID'd by call. Although I was familiar with many of the species Chiinga is an excellent guide and if I have the chance to go back to Livingstone or around I would not hesitate to call him again. Highly recommended, and you can't really get better than the first bird of the morning being a finfoot!

Njekwa was an awesome tour coordinator! My friend and I found a tour package online and asked to add on a few things for the five days we spent in Livigstone. Njekwa was prompt and efficient at organizing the activities we did and we requested some last minute changes that he was so good about making for us! We saw Victoria Falls, Devil’s Pool, did a Chobe full day game drive, a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River, a walk with the lions and elephant ride, and we had a town and community tour of Livingstone! It was so fun! I highly recommend using Savannah Southern Safaris!

Lively place, filled with so much warmth and great hospitality. I work on radio so I cherish Peaceful moments that allow me to meditate and connect with myself. I mean I can't pour from an empty cup right? so yeaah I love places that are nature friendly

We had a very knowledgeable guide and an effective tracker. We found the rhinos in less than 15 minutes!

Our guide, Chiwele Mweete, was fantastic. He has incredible knowledge about all the animals, birds, plants, insects and the ecology of their interactions, as well as traditional human uses and folklore. He is enthusiastic and personable and was my favorite guide of all we encountered in two weeks of safari at different camps in three countries. The one big downside of our experience was a 45 minute pre-sunrise ride in an open vehicle in sub 10 degree (C) / sub 50 (F) air. We were chilled to the bone by the time we arrived for our walk.
