Let me first say that my family lives in Kenya, and we have been on safari before in other parts of Africa, and we understand that you can’t always predict what animals you will see. On this tour, we actually saw a lot of animals and even saw 2 male lions right up close and lots of elephants. We probably saw 25 or so different elephants. So this doesn’t have to do with animals. This review is based on the poor customer experience our family had. Its important to know that when you book this trip, you are booking it through a company on the Zimbabwe side of the boarder and then they contract out the drivers for the game drive on the Botswana side. Zimbabwe is highly reliant on tourism and they were wonderful and very professional to work with. Once we got on the Botswana side of the boarder though, it went downhill fast. The drivers were not friendly nor professional. They treated you as a number and not a person. The game drive was more of a “we need to get to this point for lunch so we are going on this set route and if we see anything, we can stop and look and take pictures”. It also took FOREVER at the Botswana border. We got dropped off at the boarder at 8:15am and didn’t get through until 9:30am, then had to drive another 20+ minutes to the Game Reserve, and then had to wait while our driver went in to fill out paperwork. We didn’t start the game drive until 10:15am. Our lunch was at 12:30, so like I said, we were almost on a specified route towards lunch and on a time crunch because of how long we spent at the boarder. We paid a lot of money to wait in line, drive on a predetermined route, and have a short game drive. This was not worth the money.

Maxwell and Phillip where extremely professional from the start. I would highly recommend them. Everything was planned and taken care of easily and hassle free. They arrived on time and very friendly.

The day trip to Chobe National Park was well-organised and a fantastic experience. They also got me to Impalila island, Namibia, for a few hours after lunch and before the river cruise.

Great day out! The drive to Chobe was smooth and easy and we already spotted wildlife. The Safari with Daniel was awesome-he was funny and gave us such great info! Lunch was absolutely delicious and the afternoon cruise was lovely and relaxing! A fabulous day trip!

We had an 11 day private safari trip organized by United Safari Travel in Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia and it was just amazing. Maxwell organized everything based on my requests and personalized the whole tour for us. Everything went smoothly, on time and very nice staff. Maxwell always responded to our questions promptly and did his best to accomodate all our need. We had many extras in the program, and everything was very well organized. We loved every second of it! Very good value for money and really great organization.

Absolutely fantastic day trip. Everything well organised. Great to do both land & water safari. Gave you a real taste of Chobe. The riverfront is beautiful with too many elephants to count as well as various antelope & hippo out of the water which was lovely to see. We saw a couple of lions sleeping too which wasn’t expected. The buffet lunch was very good with a varied spread which I’d imagine would satisfy most palates. Both our transfer drivers were good. Stopped to let us see any animals en route. Our safari driver & captain on the boat were both very good at their job. All in all I’d highly recommend this company.

When they say full day they mean it. Pick up in Victoria Falls and return 10.5 hours Morning cruise of 3 hours on Chobe River is amazing with many animals. Then lunch buffet before heading out on a game tour for the afternoon. We did get bogged in Kalahari for a while but this just added to the experience. Many animals up close and some great scenic areas.

The crocodile farm offers rich information about the lives of crocodiles. You get to learn a lot about how crocodiles mate, eat and how long they survive. Crocodiles never stop growing.

We went with this operator not expecting too much but the quality of service was outstanding. Communication via WhatsApp was great. We were picked from our hotel in time and quickly transferred to Botswana very smoothly. There we changed the vehicle to a legendary Land cruiser safari edition and went for an exciting game drive in Chobe. After this we had a delightful lunch and continued to a boat cruis on the Chobe river. This was a cherry on the cake. We saw huge crocodiles, hippos and of course elefants up close. The experience was amazing. I am really happy that I went with United Safari on this tour. Highly recommend operator!

Such a great time!! We saw tons of elephants (including babies!), lions, a slew of other animals. I live in Kenya so I'm no stranger to safaris but I would still recommend this trip to people who have done them. The landscape is unique with elephants swimming through the Chobe River with their trunks up like little snorkels (seen during the boat safari portion) and Bostwana on one side and Namibia on the other. The lunch was also perfect, with a range of options for every diet (including vegetarians like myself). We went in 4x4 with open sides, so there were views all around. The day was perfectly organized with pick up at my accommodation, crossing the border, car safari, lunch, boat safari, and return to the accomodation. It didn't feel rushed at all even though it was all done in one day. Great value, definitely recommend.

Was a lot of fun, we saw hundreds of a big variety of animals, like elephants, giraffes, lions, buffaloes and more. For lunch we went to a resort where we had buffet. Sadly the time at the border took very long.

Great organisation. We felt welcome and safe on both sides of the border. Questions upfront were answered via WhatsApp to my full consent. We were picked up on time at our hotel in Chobe and transferred to the border were we another car picked us up. We arranged a time to be picked up for our return. The recommendations for food at the falls were great. Since we had no internet in Simbabwe we couldn't communicate with the drivers but they even came looking for us when we weren't at the pickup spot in time. Be careful of the shopkeepers at the dropoff spot, not dangerous but they are trying their best to talk you out of your money. When you buy at one shop the others stand in line to tell you to share the business also with them but dont be fooled, they are all a big family. As a group of 16 people we were nervous if all would work out but were positively surprised. The price was higher than booking on spot but stil fair and worth the knowledge to be safely picked up especially with complicated border crossing and missing internet.

The Chobe River cruise and safari were both unforgettable experiences. Our mobile phone storages were overloaded with photos. The lunch at Mowana was brilliant, very tasty food😋

OMG the most amazing safari experience!! Elephants, elephants, hippos, and more elephants!!! I’d do this experience over and over again!!

The driver never turned up despite the agent keep telling us he was on his way. After 1h30 of waiting at the meeting point agreed, the agent said we could be picked up but only at a different picking up point which was 1h away from where we were. Disgusting and unreliable. We should have been told straight away he was not coming to start looking for alternative. Not impressed
