- HMHans Jurg· October 15th, 2023Great tour, well organised, very knowledgeable and friendly guide. 2 suggestions: - please add safari pass amount to overall tour fee and make payable upfront. It’s safer not to carry lots of cash. Also guide does not need all this cash as most fees can be paid by credit card. - tipping is expected on most activities. It’s often difficult to figure out the right amount even with the help of the guide. Suggest to make the guide tip on behalf of the group taking the money from the safari pass or ask everybody to pay a small amount upfront (e.g. USD 10) to the guide.Show more

- AEAdrian· September 29th, 2017With much sadness we have just finished our 12 day Delta Chobe Waterways tour in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. The trip was our belated honeymoon and we couldn't have picked a better option. The places we visited and people we met were fascinating, beautiful, friendly and unforgetable. The constant throughout our trip however was our wonderful guide Simon Tawanira. From the very start he was welcoming, helpful and made the trip entirely worry-free. He generously shared so much information about the countries we visited and animals we were fortunate enough to see. We shared many stories and laughs. We will very much miss our fabulous guide and are a little concerned about how we will organise ourselves without him! This was always going to be an amazing trip but Simon made it truly memorable. Any one lucky enough to book a trip with him with have a fantastic time and learn so much. Thank you.Show moreTrip date: September 2017
- MHmalaika· July 10th, 2017The tour was amazing travelling from South Africa, Zimbabwe and through to Botswana ,saw some incredible natural wonders such as Vic Falls, national parks and being taken through the Delta river by small canoes. A real slice of heaven. I especially love the camp in the Delta where their had erected a manual shower and a loo our the back of the tent, so when looking up at night you could see the stars, the moon and where surrounded by natural wonders. Hearing the sounds of the night , little reed frogs and the sounds of hippos talking to one another was amazing. Wish the tour was longer and that we could have stayed a little longer in each place to really soak up the vibe of the towns that we visited. Nice small group to travel with 6-7 people and accommodation was far beyond my expectations.Show moreTrip date: June 2017

Asked on October 19th, 2025We would like to start the tour on Dec/21 or Dec/22 - would that be possible?

Kerry
Asked on July 14th, 2025Will my friends get back to Johannesburg in time for their 18:45 flight? This would mean them getting back by 1500 at the latest.
- Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperator•Written July 2025
It is impossible to guarantee a tour end time, as it all depends on road traffic, stops and any delays. As a guideline, the tour could end anytime between 15h00 - 18h00. We therefore strongly advise clients to fly out the following day or schedule their departure flight for after 9pm on the last day of tour. The other alternative is to fly out of Maun, Botswana on Day 11, missing the day's activities.
