The trip was great! It was everything we expected and more. From the time we touched down, we were well taken care of. Suki was very hospitable at the Malikana Guesthouse. Piet was also a great guide, taking the time to brief us and explain things to us when we were going from one place to another. Jerold was also a great driver and we always felt safe on the road with him. The Muluwa Lodge near Kruger and the Chisombo Lodge at Karongwe Private Reserve were both very comfortable accommodations. Over in Victoria Falls, Patience was a great guide, and Flater was very hospitable in welcoming us into her home for a homecooked Zimbabwean meal. Victoria Falls was spectacular of course. All in all a great trip, and we would recommend this to any one!Show more
