What to do and see in Victoria Falls, Southern Province: The Best Multi-day Tours
In the 1800s, the Kokolo tribe called Victoria Falls "Mosi-oa-Tunya," the smoke that thunders. That's still an apt description for the awe-inspiring waterfall that plummets over basalt cliffs along the Zambian border. Taxis and minibuses regularly run between Livingstone and the falls, which can be seen from bridges along the spray-drenched top or from "The Boiling Pot" at the bottom. Nearby are a Mukuni tribal village and a game park with giraffe, antelope and white rhinos.

My husband and I had a great time on our second honeymoon and couldn't recommend this tour company enough. The tour guide clearly knew about the sights we were seeing and made it an enjoyable (and exciting) learning experience. We saw plenty of big cats and wild animals throughout the tour. The accommodation was beyond our expectation the staff were very hospitable. The tour certainly left a lasting impression on me and I look forward to experiencing it again next time my husband and I visit Tanzania.

We had a tour with a guide called Trevor who was absolutely superb, he was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the Victoria falls and the wildlife. He even managed to find us some elephants on our journey back . I cannot recommend this trip more highly - Trevor is a great ambassador. Thank you so much for our morning and spending so much time with us.

My mother and I visited Victoria Falls recently and spent 6 days there. During our stay most of our activities were arranged by Afro Dawn Safari's. Isabella and Paul were very helpful and always made sure we had everything we needed. We went for a beautiful game drive, followed by an amazing dinner in the private reserve. We also visited an elephant sanctuary, and got to interact with the elephants. Finally we ended our trip with a sunset cruise and dinner on the Zambezi. All of these activities including transport were arranged by the team. We had such a lovely time and would recommend Afro Dawn Safaris to any fellow travellers.

TLDR; this is a tremendous experience for the adventurous traveler; if you have an open mindset about meeting new people, enjoy hiking and the outdoors, and don't mind an occasionally rough ride, this is an incredible trip and well worth your time. Having never traveled outside the US, I wanted to go big on my first solo trip with the 62-day excursion from Pretoria to Nairobi. Since it was such an extensive trip, I was looking for the most value for my time, based on price, activities, and safety. I backpack often, so beyond basic comfort was not a priority for me, which turned out to be a good mindset to adopt since we camped nearly the entire trip, & rode in a truck with no AC (Namibia gets hot!). Tip - be ready to retrieve the rain fly for your tent during unexpected 3 AM rain showers! However, nearly all of the sites we stayed at had the option to upgrade from camping to comfortable indoor accommodations, which was a nice option to take advantage of occasionally. Once we reached our site for the night, we began our daily rotating duties, which included helping to cook, clean the truck, and do dishes, which I think added to the experience and helped bond our fellow tourists. Traveling solo, I felt safe at all times with our guides, drivers, and locations. My trip was split between two guides, Crispen, then Pete, and they were great company that looked out for us and kept us safe and informed about everything around us. Our guides were familiar with the paths and knew everyone at our destinations. Nothing surprised them. Our drivers were impressive as well, with Harmony and Francis keeping us safe on the often-tumultuous African roads. Navigating both urban and off-road environments in our trucks was no easy task, and Francis even proved his mechanic skills during the occasional break-down. The variety of locations we stayed at were simply incredible. From Cape Town to the deserts of Namibia, the Okavango Delta to Zanzibar Island, the mixture of urban and remote landscapes couldn't have been better. We saw every animal you can imagine. On a trip like this, an open mindset is key. Traveling for two months with strangers can go any number of ways, but due to this trip, I now have lifelong friends scattered across the globe that I can't wait to visit. This wasn't just a vacation, it was a lasting, eye-opening experience that I believe everyone should try if possible. I can't recommend this trip enough. I wish I could go back to January and do it all over again.
5. Livingstone Botswana Experience
Located in the far north of the country, Chobe National Park is Botswana's third largest and most visited national park. It takes its name from the Chobe River, which flows along the park's northern boundary and forms the border between Botswana and Namibia's Capri vi Strip. The river is the region's heartbeat, providing a year-round source of water for the multitude of animals and birds that call the park home. Its fertile floodplains combine with the grasslands, mopane woodland and thick scrub in other areas of the park to create a patchwork of habitats that together provide shelter for one of the greatest concentrations of game on the African continent.
Inclusions: Lunch, Air-conditioned vehicle, Parking Fees
Exclusions: Use of bicycle

February 2020 we booked a 3 Microlight flights over the Victoria Falls for April 2020 and paid € 518 in advance. In April due to Covid-19 the flight could not take place and we were promised a payback of the money paid. Until today (March 2021!), despite many, many promises we still did not receive a anything! Livingstone adventures are a bunch of unreliable, lying crooks! Please think twice before booking with them!

The private guided walk with Simon was very informative and very great. Not only is he a private guide, he is also a good photographer. He has a very good work ethic which speaks volumes about his integrity. He was very punctual and came informed about everything we will need on our tour and also to get access to the park. He went further to check on our well-being, our knowledge of the area and even suggested the best activities in order for us to have the best experience. I felt like I was there when Victoria falls was discovered and named because of how much I learned through Simon. I have to admit he really does know the place. Most importantly I felt safe having a guide who knew the limits. Thank you Simon!

Simon took my money and hung up. After accusing me of fraud forging his quote. Highly recommend not to contact him, he is probably a cheater. I asked him that if someone impersonated him and corresponded through his firm's email, then he should take care of it and also help me get my money back but he did not respond (apparently he is to blame). you have been warned! I have all the correspondence with him by email and WhatsApp so all the evidence is there for those who need it.
