Incredible day out - amazing close up encounters with the beautiful animals of Chobe. - Fantastic experience. The tour itself is incredible with a 3 hour boat ride and 3 hour jeep safari. Awesome animal experiences with close up encounters with hippos, a lion, elephants, giraffes, kudu, impala, crocodile and numerous birds. The sheer numbers of elephants and hippos amazed us!! The guides were informative and friendly. The boat and jeep comfortable and safe. The food provided for lunch and morning tea was nice, and drinks were available during the safaris. Loved this tour and wish we could have stayed longer. The pickup and drop off was seamless and they assist with the border processes. A great company and we would definitely recommend them and use them again.

Excellent, high value trip to Chobe - This was a phenomenal, high value experience from start to finish. Highly recommend! The pickup from Bernard at our lodge in Vic Falls was exactly on time, with clear guidance on each step of the way, including crossing into Botswana. We met our Kalahari Safari guide, Sha, who was an informative, experienced, and helpful guide to all aspects of the boat cruise and game drive. He was personable and took interest in our kids, without being invasive or pushy, as some guides can be. The mid trip lunch and tea was perfect, with a delightful gift shop to help us track animals and remember our trip to Botswana. The drop off was also flawless and we felt supported navigating the exit from Botswana and re-entry to Zimbabwe. Sha even helped others in line get organized; a sign of his servant mentality. Our return trip with Bernard was again excellent back to our lodge. Our kids had an amazing day, as did my wife and I. 100% endorse this trip.

Chobe did not disappoint - Chobe day tour Did this as a day tour with pick up from Vic Falls. Morning cruise on Chobe River. Afternoon game drive in Chobe NP. Some have said the Chobe day tour from Vic Falls involves a tiresome amount of time travelling to and from the park. I did not find this so, and nothing at all felt hurried. Having a Kaza visa helps cut time when re-entering Zimbabwe from Botswana. River cruise was on a small motor launch, and we saw water buffalo (on an island mid-river) and many crocs and hippos. At one point a pod of hippos began to surround the boat and we had to move out quickly. After lunch at the 'Coffee Buzz', Kasane, the game drive offered close views of many large herbivores. The giraffes and elephants were highlights. Again, despite being the one day tour, we never hurried, there was always plenty of time for impromtu stops whenever the Park Ranger spotted something unexpected and interesting – eg two male giraffes fighting – and there was also plenty of time to observe a whole range of behaviours in the Chobe elephants, both female/ juvenile herds and lone males. We did not see any cats (although they had been witnessed in the area in the morning), but the richness of the large herbivore sightings more than made up for this. The knowledge of the park rangers was encyclopaedic, and the transportation arranged by Kalahari Tours was efficient. The combination of river cruise and game drive was a great one, and for those on a tight time-table I would highly recommend the one-day Chobe option.

Best safari guide - All our trips were wonderful and stunning but our last evening Safari with our guide OP was incredible. We immediately warmed to his great personality and were humbled by his knowledge and experience. OP brought us to trails rarely frequented to have up close encounters. We travelled the river back and them started our search for lions and the elusive leopard. Having spent a long time searching and about to give up due to darkness, OP skillfully tracked her to a tree. Thank you, OP for unforgettable memories, while the other guide are fantastic, you are outstanding.

Chobe - Professional and well worth cost. Picked us up at our lodge in Victoria Fslls and got us across the border to Botswana. Morning part was a boat tour on the Chobe river. Crocodiles, elephants, hippos, impala, and birds galore. We were fed lunch at their headquarters then boarded jeep for the over land portion. They really know where to find the animals. Sam was an amazing guide! Afterward we were escorted back across the border and delivered safe and sound back to our lodge.

Amazing animal sightings, great guides, mediocre food. - The guides on both boat and car were great, providing informative commentary and good service. Great animal sightings from the boat & first half of the game drive (the animals were doing their own thing elsewhere during the second half, that’s just nature!) . They also ushered us through all immigration procedures seamlessly. I took off a star for the food. Our party was not impressed with the breakfast of donuts that weren’t sweet, muffins, coffee and tea. Any other drinks came at a premium (eg machine cappuccino at “$3… no, $4!). Lunch was a salad, white rice, bbq meat, ground beef something, rolls, a panna cotta style desert and brownies, with a pitcher of water of unknown origin. Salad dressing was either bottled blue cheese dressing or balsamic and canola oil. In sum - the thing everyone is here for, ie seeing Chobe and the animals, was great. The food wasn’t.
