AVOID. Felt like a scam from start to finish. I wish I had read a review like this before booking. He sold us a trip, took our money, then quietly delivered a cheaper one. Places we had paid for were swapped for lower-quality lodgings with worse services, and he never said a word. When we caught on, he had the nerve to call it a “bonus” for us. Downgrading what someone paid for and calling it a gift is not a mistake. It’s deception. It didn’t stop there. Every travel time he gave us was a lie. He told us one drive would take 6 hours. It took 13. He did this repeatedly, so nothing he said about the schedule could be trusted. What disgusted me most was how he treated people in Zimbabwe. I watched him make a local man clean his entire car, pay him nothing, and speak to him with contempt. People who treat locals like that are not people you want to hand your money and your safety to. The activities were good, and that’s the only reason this isn’t zero stars. It’s also what makes it effective: a good experience on the surface to hide the cuts underneath. My advice: Don’t book with him. If you ignore that, get every hotel name, date, and price in writing, check each stay yourself, and don’t trust a single travel time he gives you.

Hwange tour 3 nights..rated 5+ Brilliant Sunset tour 4.25 Good but a little bit more polish needed in presentation and a little more food Chobe Tour Tours 4.5 were fantastic but border crossing needed better communication Overall Africa Beast Safaris provided a quality service and great experiences!

Simon did a fantastic job organising our trip to suit our budget and provide a quality experience. Over 3 days we saw a great variety of animals and had a top guide. Highly recommended!

Tom the moment we started planning our trip for 6 adults, Simon was attentive & gave us options to make sure we enjoyed our incredible adventure in Victoria Falls & Botswana. Once we were all happy with our tour, Simon stayed in touch ensuring we were kept informed & welcomed us at Vic Falls.. Everything worked out really well & when we had a minor problem Simon sorted it out straight away. Having Nathan as our driver really helped us on our free day. Accomodation was lovely & our activities well planned.
