5.00We booked a 1/2 day river Chobe River safari via Savannah Adventures. The booking was made barely 2 days before the trip and we were not sure whether we would be able to get the safari in. Savvanah's team was great in terms of coordinating the booking and making sure we got to go. On the morning of our safari, we were picked up by Taf from our hotel in Victoria Falls on time in a clean and comfortable van and driven to the Botswana border, where Taf helped us with immigration formalities and then to find our transport to Chobe River. Our boat driver and guide, Mike, was very friendly and super knowledgeable and helped us see hippos, elephants, buffalos and other game and birds. We had an especially memorable elephant sighting with a herd of more than 50 elephants barely 50 feet from our boat. The ride back was on time, quick and comfortable and we were left with several hours of sunlight to enjoy other activities in Victoria Falls. Since we had a few clothes and shoes to donate to a local orphanage that Savannah Adventures supports in Victoria Falls, one of their team came to pick us up the next morning so we could go visit the children staying there and give them the items we had with us. This added experience was invaluable for us. Many thanks Matthias and Taf for making our time in Victoria Falls so much richer.
