Zimbabwe · VICTORIA FALLS WILDLIFE ENCOUNTERS
7 reviewed
Not every animal here needs a game drive to find. Lion and cheetah sanctuaries, rhino tracked on foot in Matobo, and a couple of close encounters that only work in the early morning. Below: the 7 best, with prices, ages allowed, how long each takes and what the money goes towards.
Matobo National Park white rhino tracking with a ranger-led bush walk, ancient cave paintings, BBQ lunch, pickup, and digital photos.
“Pick up was on time and the drive to Matobo NP took some 30 min. Straight away we saw two rhinos in the park and approached them, taking photos and video clips for my YouTube channel. We spent around 25 min with the rhinos and leRead more”
See lions feeding at eye level and walk among hyenas in Victoria Falls, plus ostriches and rescued animals in 3 hours.
“Halbtägige Tour. Sehr gut organisiert, ich persönlich finde den Preis nicht gerechtfertigt. Im Endeffekt ist es ein bisschen zooartig und die Tiere werden „vorgeführt“. Wir sind den Hyänen hinterhergelaufen, die Antilopen werden gefüttert damit man sie sieht… also man hat auf jeden Fall die Garantie (im Gegensatz zu Nationalparks) alle dort lebenden Tiere zu sehen. Mir persönlich hat das aber eher ein Gefühl von Zoo vermittelt. Man fährt in die Gehege rein, direkt zu den Tieren, bleibt dann dort 20min daneben stehen und fährt dann weiter. Ich würde es nicht nochmal machen.”
Matobo Hills day trip from Bulawayo with rhino tracking on foot, Bushmen rock art, Cecil Rhodes grave, and lunch in 8 hours.
“The encounter with the rhino and leopard tortoise and the excellent guide Blessing we had! He new his subject very well! The way he communicated with the rhino's was amazing!”
Victoria Falls safari jeep with baobab, gorge views, and optional vulture, sunset, or moonlight runs, with pickup and refreshments.
“We did not go to see the vultures, and the safaris was a drive around town in the dark. I could of done that myself. I had booked other tours with this company due to disorganization they didn't happen. How to ruin a hoilday. They driver was friendly the fault was mismanagement”
Morning horse ride from Victoria Falls into Chisuma villages and along Batoka Gorge, with pickup, English guide, and small group.
“What a lovely way to spend the morning. A really nice way to see the local way of living in the villages. Lisa and Amie were super friendly and answers all our questions about life in Zimbabwe. The horse were so well treated and we all felt safe (me, my wife and son 8years old). I would highly recommend this as an activity.”
8 days of waterfalls, Chobe River wildlife, Elephant Sands elephant country, Okavango Delta flight and mokoro, plus Moremi big cats.
“Excellent overall experience. Perfect tour organization and arrangements. A special thank to : Tatenda, Shelton & Simon”
A full day from Victoria Falls with a Chobe National Park river cruise and game drives, hunting for Big Five sightings, plus lunch and pickup.
“We had a wonderful time on this tour. Francis drove us to and from the Botswana border, while Cobra led the safari tour. We saw a male lion, giraffes, many elephants, and a couple of hippos. The vehicle was very comfortable and there was nRead more”
