    If I could give zero stars, I would. Worst tour I have ever done in over 40 years of travel

    Just awful from start to finish. Tour was supposed to start with Dawn Safari at 5am, but didn't get picked up until after 7am!!! Operator didn't even have courtesy to contact me to advise there would be a late pick up. When we got to Botswana, discovered that Tanmuka Travel had subcontracted Chobe Trip to Shangamera Tours. (Googled business after tour to find that website access was blocked because business was operating without consent of shareholders!!!) We were kept waiting in safari vehicle for over an hour while we waited for other "guests." Guide was terrible - just recited facts and was so bad at spotting wildlife, he drove straight past a giraffe on the side of the road! Boat cruise was just as bad. Seating was plastic garden chairs that weren't secured to deck, meaning chairs tilted back whenever boat hit waves AND we got BOGGED on an island in the river, right next to a crocodile. Took over 15 minutes to get boat back in water so our cruise was cut short, too. Tour was advertised as dawn safari with Chobe 3 hour safari and Chobe 3 hour boat cruise, but both Chobe tours went for about 90 minutes. Tanmuka Travel gave a $60 refund for late pick up, but I'm still $290 out of pocket for the worst tour I have ever done. Just avoid. Plenty of GOOD tour operators in Victoria Falls.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for the feedback to clarify on what happened on the day of your tour; You were supposed to be picked up at 5am but since you were the only person who booked we had to move you to join others at a later pick up that is why we had to partially refund you for the the hours you had missed. Secondly, Shangamera is a registered fully functional company that we have partnered with to work with them from Botswana side and they have all the required documents that is why they were allowed to go inside the park, if they were not registered they would not have been allowed in the park. As for the boats we do not use luxury boats but small boats that allows easy maneuvering to see aquatic wiildife wildlife,plants and crocodiles. We can not blame the guide for failing to see a giraffe that was by the side of the road as he will also be looking other angles to ensure your safety and spotting oher animals that is why he mentions that if you see any animals you should notify him as he might have missed it. We do not agree that the whole tour took 90 minutes as the distance from your hotel to the national park gate takes about an hour or slightly more.

    Excellent customer service

    Very sadly a large group of others booked for this activity with me cancelled last minute so they didn’t have the minimum number to go ahead. The company however (and Brighton specifically) could not have been more helpful in assisting me to book a similar tour so I could still enjoy a wonderful day. He was exceptionally helpful and responsive in ensuring I got my full refund through Viator, going above and beyond!

    From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Livingstone.

    How much does From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park cost?

    +

    Prices start at $250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Livingstone usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park take?

    +

    Plan for about 14 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Livingstone is not rushed.

    Is From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Livingstone, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 14-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Livingstone can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Livingstone and add a light layer if any part of the 14-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Victoria falls Sunrise to sunset safari Chobe national park start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Livingstone within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Livingstone?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Livingstone experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Game Drive & Rhino Safari Exp - up to 3 hrs long - MIN 2 PEOPLE, Raft the Zambezi, Zambezi Whitewater Rafting — Full Day All 25 Rapids : Livingstone. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Livingstone?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Livingstone?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
