Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs C from Bucks

"The House and its facilities were superb and the staff outstanding - professional, welcoming & relaxed. There would be very little to highlight for improvement opportunities to be honest and this would definitely be a place we would recommend to all our friends.

The game drives were outstanding with so much wildlife to see and our guide was extremely knowledgeable but with such a great character it made each drive a real pleasure.

The walking safari should be a must for all visitors - especially being able to hear the sounds without the vehicle and spotting a Leopard in a tree!!"

"Chongwe House was a fabulous facility and its location is just out of this world. The staff were extremely welcoming and accommodated all our needs.

There would be a couple of suggestions we would offer as thoughts for improvement - leather drapes instead of doors don't really offer much privacy and for large groups like we had more staff are required at meal times so that the food (which is of a very high standard) reaches the table at its best (the distance from kitchen to table isn't short so at dinner it sometimes wasn't hot when arriving).

These are minor suggestions and in no way impacted the enjoyment and memorability of our stay. The combination of river safari and driving safari was just amazing and the experience of paddling for sun-downers in the middle of The Zambezi will remain with us for the rest of our days."

"It had been nearly 30 years since we were last at The Vic Falls Hotel and what a return they laid on - back to its absolute best and as a very frequent traveler I would say one of the best hotels I have stayed in anywhere.

Rooms beautiful, gardens glorious, service impeccable and food amazing. The absolute best way to end a safari in Africa."
