Namibia, South Africa & Zimbabwe Review: Victoria Falls National Park, Luxury Africa Safari, Cape Town, Paragliding, Riverboat

We just returned from an amazing trip in Africa. This travel team did an amazing job setting up our tour, and everything worked out perfectly. The first 6 days of the trip were in Cape Town and Hermanus, and the guide they set us up with was fantastic. If you are going to Cape Town, definitely ask that this travel team set you up with him.  We had a wine tasting up on Table Mountain, we tryed Paragliding off of Signal Hill, the hotel at the water front in Cape Town was perfect as well. Hermanus for whale watching was nice, but I recommend that you stay a few extra nights at the Water Front and do that as a day trip.  We were supposed to do a Shark Cage Dive, but the weather didn't cooperate for that, so that is the main reason we stayed in Hermanus. Next we went to Ulusaba Lodge at a private game reserve by Kruger National Park. That was a 5 star amazing experience. It is owned by Richard Branson, and we loved every minute of it. Next we went to Zimbabwe to Elephant Camp in luxury tents, which were more like little houses with amazing views. We visited Victoria Falls as well. The staff there were also fabulous. The last part of our trip was on the Chobe Princess riverboat on the Chobe River in Namibia. Initially, it was a hassle with going through multiple immigrations on our drive to the get on the boat through Zimbabwe, Botswana, then Namibia, but in the end, it was all worth it. Seeing the wildlife by boat was a different perspective and an amazing experience. They would do multiple game drives via a smaller boat that was a tender for the riverboat.  We were able to bring it right up to shore an get close to Elephants, crocodiles, hippos, giraffe, and baboons. Overall, this travel team planned out a perfect trip for us. We got to see all of the "Big 5" plus almost every other animal you can imagine. All of our guides and staff were a pleasure to work with, the food was amazing. The only thing I wish is that it wasn't such a long journey to get there from the US. But it is a small price to pay for the travel time to make a memory like that! Thank you Zicasso for once again setting us up with a great Travel Agency to work with.
