Good logistics and coordination.
5/5

Rockfowl did a great job organizing our day. I think there could have been better communication about what to expect so that I felt more confident in what was going to happen. In the end they got everything done but there was some stress around logistics and miscommunication. We did the Chobe AM game drive, then lunch which was very nice at a resort. A small speed boat took us across to Namibia for a village tour. We then headed back to Vic Falls arriving around 20:30. A few surprises. 1) You won't see Rockfowl on any trucks. They subcontract with a Botswana company for the game drive and a random taxi driver for the trip to the border. He will leave you there and you walk across and meet the company. You also might find it difficult to payonline. They want you to pay cash when you arrive I think. 2) That company hired a second game truck and the driver didn't realize that my friend and I weren't on the normal itinerary so told us wrong instructions. 3) If you do Nambia there really isn't much time. The village is actually quite a walk and you'll end up just hiring a car to take you to village after immigration. 4) You stamp in and out of so many countries on this trip so make sure you have space. It will take a least 2 pages. 5) Namibia requires a $90 visa just to walk to a village. Worth it? Well I like stamps so yes but probably not really. The village is truly local and they are just trying to get people to come and buy their goods. Smart tourism for the local villages population but unfortunately with the new visa required people don't want to spend the money for this experience. It packs a lot in the day. After about 30 minutes in Nambia we had to hurry to cross back so had to stamp out of Namibia, cross the river to the Botswana immigration, get stamped back in, then boat back to the dock for our evening cruise. I will say that the other's did an afternoon cruise then headed back. Then sunset cruise is way better so staying late will mean better picks and wildlife along river. Plus amazing river sunset. Overall they didn't a great job. An itinerary and clear expectations would have meant for a little bit less stress but overall would recommend highly.

Superb 1 day safari. We saw the wildlife up close and everything was organized perfectly with the hotel pickup and transfers. The buffet lunch was very good.
I highly recommend Rockfowl Safaris.

Perfectly organized
5/5

What an experience! My 11-year-old son was thrilled. Crossing the borders alone was an adventure for him. Three countries in one day, in the world's only quadripoint. Chobe National Park is a must-see. To finally see the Zambezi River, which you know from countless documentaries. Incredibly beautiful landscapes. Unique wildlife. Highly recommended! Smooth, punctual transfers. Perfectly organized.

Well organized
5/5

We booked Chobe safari day trip combined with village walk in Namibia. The trip is amazing, you can experience a wide range of activities, safari, lodge lunch, boat cruise while crossing from Botswana to Namibia and then the village walk with 2000-year old baobab tree that is craved inside. We really enjoyed our guides and the organization was just on spot, they care for you all the time. Part of the price you pay goes for the villagers who struggle a lot, so knowing that you’re visibly helping local community is another reason you should book your trip today, not mentioning hundreds of animals, and beautiful landscapes.

5/5

Did the tour from Vic Falls to Chobe and I absolutely loved it! Was initially nervous about being a solo traveler but it all worked out so well.

The tour was well thought of and I was guided through all the boarder steps as well as the game drive, lunch and the boat cruise!

Chobe is a must do!

It was unforgettable experience
5/5

We liked our safari with Rockfowl. It was very convenient to communicate with the company while booking our trip.
Regardless some minor difficulties on the Botswanian side the whole trip was wonderful! The Rockfowl safaris team member was really helpful and worried if we could have our boat cruise because it had started raining. Fortunately, afterwards the weather improved and we had a wonderful boat trip and were lucky to see a lot of animals. So I would recommend this agency to my friends.

Outstanding Hwange 1-day safari with exceptional guides, great value and unforgettable local touches
5/5

I had a fantastic experience with Rockfowl Safaris from start to finish. Communication with the manager Macdonald Diki was fast, professional and friendly. My guide, who has lived in the nature park area since childhood, was both highly knowledgeable and impressively skilled at reading animal behaviour, making every moment feel special and authentic. He tailored the program perfectly to the weather and wildlife sightings. Transportation by Keith was equally outstanding. He went far beyond expectations, even taking me to a truly local place to eat on the way back and stopping for photos at authentic villages and viewpoints. As the only guest on the tour, it felt like a personalised and immersive experience rather than a standardised large group excursion. Everything was punctual, reliable and very safe, with comfortable vehicles. Good food, excellent organisation, wonderful people and great value for money. I recommend Rockfowl Safaris very strongly!
