1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The game drives - walking beside white rhinos in the wild and seeing an elephant charge at lions.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Be prepared for the heat but also for cold mornings. Keep your camera charged!3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes in the fact the guides and staff were all local. Important in a country with high unemployment. Hwange seemed more environmentally conscious when it came to water bottles than other parts of Zimbabwe.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Fabulous! Trip of a lifetime!Paola De Stefano review 19 Mar 2024
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Seeing the falls for the first time.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
If you are going for one week: you only need two days to visit the falls, because we didn’t do the safari, being that we live in Kenya, but you need more than four days to visit Cape Town.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes, I do especially in Zimbabwe.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
The entire trip was amazing! The accommodations were wonderful, the owners of the lodge in Zimbabwe (Victoria Falls 528) were welcoming, kind, and always available. The two guides in Cape Town (Rachel and Terry) organised great and peculiar tours for us, allowing us to visit different places at our own time and pace, which enabled us to fully explore the area we were in. In conclusion, our feedback is completely positive, thank you so much for your help, you will be a reliable source to organise new trips.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
