"All the arrangements came together beautifully. Liz was very responsive, always got back to me quickly, and managed very nicely with a couple of changes in my plans."
Wand Murren - on Saturday 15th September 2018 Read More"I have had them plan 2 South African safaris for me. Each one more incredible than the last. The communication throughout the entire planning process was superb. I HIGHLY recommend them if you are planning a trip to Africa."
Michael Smith - on Saturday 8th September 2018 Read More"This is the second time we have used Zambezi Safari and Travel Company and again they exceeded our expectations. We were an adult family of 7 and had the best holiday ever. We loved Zimbabwe and found the people incredibly friendly and passionate about their country. Everything worked like clockwork and we stayed in some exceptional lodges both on the Zambezi River and in Hwange National Park. We were lucky to have an amazing guide for six days in Hwange and saw masses of wildlife as well as being immersed in bush life. I cannot thank Chris and everyone at Zambezi Safari and Travel Company for organising the best holiday ever and for giving us, as a family, such wonderful shared memories."

Casey Hoover - on Saturday 1st September 2018 Read More"Mark and Trish were very helpful and knowledgeable about the resort and travel arrangements Easy to contact by phone or email and always responded promptly. Fantastic holiday."
Andrew Craig - on Wednesday 29th August 2018 Read More"We had an absolutely fantastic time in Zim. Most lodges well chosen, Transfer very slick. One tiny little downside- we were asked for any special dates during our stay. The moment you are asked such a question and you pass on a celebration date you have an expectation that something is going to happen ... but it didn’t. The Victoria Falls Lodge is a beautiful building, great location, but strangely lacked some atmosphere at the same time. Maybe because the place is too big and full of travelling groups. Some of the staff were not very friendly - I didn’t feel welcome there. Wasn’t impressed with the food either. Watching the feeding of the vultures was amazing. Lodge in Kariba very nice, delicious food, best ice-cream and charming fellow guests. Weaving our own travel planes into your organised safari worked very well. Our canoe safari was breathtaking beautiful- the absolute highlight. A big thank you to your hardworking guides."
