SCAM and Expensive
Celine Y,Feb 16, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
1.00SCAM - its more expensive than Get Your Guide (almost double) because they advertised it to be 3 hours. However, its only 1 hour, people demanded for TIP, rushing through the village. Lots of comments say the same thing. Better to book directly from Hotel/hostel so you can complain if things happen.
Exotic and very worthy

4.00We were collected on time from our accommodation, the car was clean, air conditioning, and comfortable. Our driver was very polite and friendly. When we got to the village he handed us over to Brenda, a girl who lives in the village who showed us around. Brenda was very friendly and informative, there were only 3 of us so the tour was shorter than advertised but that was to be expected. Over all it was a great little trip. Thank you

5.00Superb choice of a few hours. Genuine village within a safe environment. Not contrived. Ensure you have a visa if you travel from Zimbabwe to avoid time at the boarder crossing. Transfers were all on time. Controlled place to purchase souvenirs at the end but too many to help them all. Zambia is much cheaper place to purchase souvenirs.

5.00I was the only tourist on the Mukuni village afternoon trip. My guide Mwangelwa was really kind and interesting and dropped me back at the border which was nearer than the hotel drop off point. The village itself was a genuine look at how the Mukuni village life works, though I think the costumed dancing is mostly for visitors, no less an exciting event. I really enjoyed this trip.
Tourist trap!

2.00Very very disappointing tour. Iy was supposed to be a 2-3 hour tour inside Mukuni village. The lady who conducted the tour was initially interested. We wanted to have a look at everything before we could tip or give some money or even shop at their local shop. Right at the start there were kids who did a tribal dance. We thought we will appreciate later in cash. Moment we did not give at that very moment, she totally lost interest and hardly showed us much about the village. We must have completed the tour in 20-30 min. We didnt like her approach at all. There is nothing special as such in the village part. Just a hyped tourist trap
