A great experience if you want to get a sampling of safari, are in Victoria Falls area, and want to reach a new country Botswana!
Tour consists of a drive from Vic Falls to the border, where you will go through immigration to exit Zimbabwe and enter Botswana; highly recommend the KAZA visa if you plan to cross borders with Zambia and/or Namibia, as it is multi entry and covers those as well.
Afterwards you reach a local lodge near Kasane Botswana and you go on a boat safari on the Chobe River. There I got to see crocodiles, hippos, impalas, and multiple species of bird.
Then you return to the lodge, have lunch, and then you go on a road safari on a jeep. There we were treated to many up close sightings, including a giraffe sighting, where he walked up to us and proceeded to take a 2.5 minute pee!
The guides were extremely helpful especially the driver on the road safari; he also communicates with other drivers and they coordinate to maximize animal sightings
Overall highly recommend this tour for its smoothness and the enjoyable experience of seeing many animals. This is great especially if you are doing a safari for the first time and want to start small.
