Genuine reviews from travelers on Wildlife safaris and game drives Africa tours
Judy C. | Traveled in July
Fantastic! Our guide Titus was great! Great driver Peter too. Memorable moment was with the Masaii dancing and visiting with hunter gather tribes.
Karen | Traveled in July
This adventure has everything! Wildlife was amazing, lots of close encounters; beautiful accommodation, great food and a brilliant tour guide who was helpful friendly and could spot an animal no one else would have seen. I loved the variety of landscapes and environment which was also represented in the accommodation from intimate tent lodges to a stunning African lodge with warthogs, steenboks, monkeys and mongoose running around the lawn to a smaller colonial style guest lodge. This adventure does not disappoint!

Watching all the animals out in their natural surroundings. Sitting for 30 minutes to watch elephants walk across the plains then cross right in front of the jeep.

The African Wildlife Explorer Cape Town to Victoria Falls trip is an exciting adventure and excellent value! While there are some long driving days, this is what allows for the ability to see so much beautiful scenery and wonderful wildlife. Our guide, Misheck, was very knowledgeable and an excellent driver, and did a good job of keeping the group together and on time during the many activity-filled days. All of the resorts were very nice, and some absolutely wonderful, as was the food. We saw loads of wildlife, beautiful scenery and fascinating scenes of daily life of the local people. Highly recommended!

One of the top two trips of my life! (The other was Antarctica.) Not only did we see and learn about animals; we also met people and learned about their lives. Our drivers were also guides; they became our trusted friends too. Try to go during shoulder season. We were told things would get a lot busier during high season. We have been with Collette on several tours because we know we can count on them for a great experience.
