Best first safari!!! - Our first time to Africa, and our first safari. It is worth every penny! Our driver to and from our hotel to the border was so kind, and informative... guiding us through the border process. Our land safari guide/driver was Simon. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Snacks had vegan options as well as the lunch buffet. Yay!!! Our river guide was also quite knowledgeable and fun! If you've never been on a safari, this is the best one for first timers, and those who've been before.

Cherish Travel made us feel like family. - Such a fantastic experience! The Cherish team picked us up from the Avani resort in a very nice bus. They guided us through the international customs process. We felt very informed and safe. We had a large group of 20 people and each person loved it! They were clear on the cost of the safari and we could not have been more pleased with all we experienced for the price! We went on both land and water adventures and they were ahhhhmazing! We were able to relax when we were on the river boat and enjoy the scenery. You will not get a better safari! We stayed in Livingstone for two days. And Cherish Travel and Tours really packed a lot into those 48 hours! We saw Victoria Falls, the Chobe National Park, we walked with the Rhino's and even saw a Cheetah! It was a trip I will never forget! Whether you are taking a large group or on a family vacation. Cherish Travel and Tours are trustworthy.

Great experience! - Great full day of animal sightings! The game drive with sooooo many elephants was spot on. And after having done a couple different truck safari’s the boat cruise was so unique and different. Saw elephants on the shore, hippos and crocs! Love the smaller boat as well. With so many moving parts and locations we were impressed with our guides/hosts keeping track of us and guiding us where we needed to be.

Unforgettable experience with wonderful guides. Highly recommend. - I had an absolutely incredible experience on the Chobe Day Trip and cannot speak highly enough of Cherish Travel. The guides were so insightful, helpful, and kind and we were fortunate enough to see so many animals on both our game drive and the boat tour. While I think we were especially lucky to see all the animals we did (a whole pride of lions, countless elephants, a leopard, hippos, giraffes, crocodiles and many more), I think this experience is would be worth every penny, even if we saw half of what we did. They also kindly arranged a private tour for me the following day of the Rhino Walk and Victoria Falls which were also wonderful. Special shoutout to Mwangelwa who was an excellent conversationalist on our drive to the border.

Fantastic experience - Lovely team that assisted us from start to finish. The game drive with Tshepy was absolutely fantastic, she is amazing! We saw lots of animals and had plenty of time to photograph them and enjoy being in the park. She was a brilliant game driver and guide. Hotel pick up and drop off included. Our driver Derrick was very helpful getting us across the border from Zambia into Botswana which made the whole process easy. Lunch was lovely and there were drinks available throughout the day. The afternoon ended with a boat trip on the Chobe river. Our guide France was very knowledgeable and was able to get us close to the animals but still kept a safe and respectful distance. This is a wonderfully relaxing activity because you are guided from start to finish so would highly recommend doing this in between any fast paced activities that you might also have booked.

Awesome safari, one of the best Africa offers - What an amazing day trip to Chobe from Livingstone. Smooth pickup from and dropoff at Livingstone as well as super easy immigration in both Zambia and Botswana both ways. And Chobe is seriously indescribable. Literally saw over 500 elephants, a lion, some wild dogs, herds of buffaloes, many an impala, and tons more of wildlife. Had a game drive in the morning and a boat ride in the afternoon. Getting goosebumps writing this review. A serious must do for those into wildlife safaris

A Great Day Out Spotting Critters! - All the guides were fantastic - patient, knowledgable, friendly and KEEN to make sure we saw as much as possible. And we saw alot! On the game drive, elephants, giraffe, impala, hippo, and even a rare and close-up glimose at a lioness. Spectacular! Lunch was plentiful and tasty in very comfy surrounds! And then the river cruise brought MORE wildlife - all kinds of birds, buffalo, crocs and monkeys, but for me, the hippos stole the show! A totally fulfilling day! You gotta do this!
