No problems with tour operator, only Zambezi Trader information on the flight schedule was incorrect
Ichingo Chobe , experience was excellent , with good overall service. Recommend house boat on Chobe river , more wild life to view .
Transfer from one to another place was excellent .
Zambezi Trader - disappointing , waste of time and money . poor start to the trip on air transfer .
we booked thinking we going to the Lake Kariba(as per your tour package ) - trip is on the Zambezi River , did not go close the Lake Kariba
overfished river , limit number of wild life and bird viewing compared to our Chobe experience .
No spa , fishing only

Provisionally affective with good comms.to customer and back!
Well and efficiently organised and run!
I found service standards excellent throughout and kept one well informed!
The tour was good and the guides/drivers well man-nerd and excellent knowledge of the whole area,animals and birds!
Negatives were the too long distances traveled and the condition of most inner roads very poor accentuating therefore distances feeling further!The rain did add to this for sure!One needs a fair fitness !

Thorough, precise, helpful and reasonable.
Our second safari with eXplore Plus Travel & Tours (Serengeti in 2025). We requested a small group, exclusive safari of the Okavango Delta with minimum travel arrangements starting in Cape Town and paying with ZAR Rand. We got we asked for and more. Efficient flights, friendly and knowledgeable staff, lovely camps, super food and lots of Kodak moments. Would recommend this to anybody.

Very good
I had a wonderful experience from the outset with a meet and greet at the airports and a wildlife relevant book;the guide was brilliant; the food was mostly very good;
The accommodation was excellent but I would have preferred slight upgrade on the Serengeti tent.
Overall highly recommended
I would easily travel again with Explore plus

Serengeti magic
We chose the 8 day tour to the Serengeti. It was an unforgettable experience. The local guides through Predators were excellent, the balloon safari over the northern Serengeti astounding and the Leonard's team at the tented camp awesome. A few hiccups here and there which the management of explore Plus handled with aplomb after the tour. The tour assistant was inexperienced. Overall a bucket list experience.
So well organised, attention to detail. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole itinerary
The whole tour was amazing- From the meet & greet at the airport to our farewell dinner.
Our guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable , Emmy went above the call of duty and he was a pleasure to have around.
I cannot fault a thing, we were blown away by Rwanda and its people - the accommodation and food was top class - I will definitely travel with Explore plus again -

Serengeti Safari - Every aspect planned to perfection
One of the things I loved about travelling with eXplore Plus is that they plan every aspect of the trip in the greatest detail. From hotels and lodges, meals and snacks, to guides and vehicles. Everything is pre-planned and executed according to plan. The safari guides they use are experienced, knowledgeable and kind. The vehicles are spotless every morning, even after the most dusty drive the day before. I loved the feeling of being part of a well-oiled machine. And then to see so much of nature in the comfort and safety of a well-maintained vehicle - nothing can beat the awe of being in the midst of a huge herd of Wildebeest and Zebra, or watching a Cheetah with five cubs on the lookout for food. This was an experience of a lifetime.

Excellent
Incredible experience! Friendly and knowledgeable guides, great transportation, excellent accommodation with far too much delicious food. The whole program went smoothly. We were always on time everywhere.... even at viewings!!! Not to mention the surprises in the bush. Would recommend it to anyone. Absolutely one of our adventure HIGHLIGHTS!

It was a great tour, accommodation was excellent and tour guides did their utmost so that we could see the gorillas and chimpanzees.

Excellent , regular communication and full details of trip booked provided.
The Rovos Rail trip from Vic Falls to Pretoria was excellent and excursions well planned. Catering and service on board were world class.
