Spectacular!

10-Aug-2021

No words can express our adventure…: beyond amazing, exhilarating, surprising, powerful, fun, overwhelming, thrilling, even a bit scary but way way spectacular! From the boat safari to the jeep game drive to the camp in the brush to the sunrise game drive! Loved every moment! 😊 ...more ...less

Above and beyond

23-Feb-2020

Thank you Albino (I hope I spelled it correctly). He was a wonderful guide. The falls are breathtaking and he provided such good context. Answered all my questions and even went above and beyond and had the vendor open up so I could purchase a cold water. Thanks ...more ...less

Very personalized service

They catered to all our special requests, maintained good communication and took their time to come to our hotel to plan our activities with us. I highly recommend.

Pleasant experience

We had our Victoria falls tour on the Zambian side with my daughter. Our tour guide was very well informed and had customer care. We were picked up on time at the hotel which is a good thing. I definitely recommend them

Best Company Ever

05-Aug-2020

I had the pleasure of planning and booking a trip with Southern Dynasty. They are an amazing company. There are no words for how happy I was with the quality of the trip and the service that we received. The company is lead by Collins who is a local Zambian and he really know what he is doing. Because of covid our group was worried about how things were going to work so we asked a lot of questions and sent a lot of emails (51 back and forth) Collins helped us every step of the way in a quick and professional manner. Everyone who works for him is very knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Collins really runs an amazing operation. We enjoyed a camping safari in Chobe national park. The game drive and the boat cruise was amazing we saw so many different animals. The guide did a great job of making sure everyone got a chance to see and found so many animals hiding in the bush. We then camped. I have done several safaris in different locations and this was the best safari yet. We then camped and had dinner. Camping was a great way to experience and respect the nature around us. We also had a great meal and felt safe the entire time. We then got up and had breakfast and went on another game drive before getting driven to Zambia to go to the falls. The guides helped us through customs and again answered any questions that we had. The falls were great we spent several hours looking at their beauty. Then Collins got us back safe to our hostel. My wifi is not strong I really want to share photos but I am unable to so I will create another post later to show the amazing things that we were able to see. Thank you Collins and team. You all are amazing. PS we loved and trusted them so much that we have planned some more adventures with Southern Dynasty and will use them in the future. ...more ...less

Collins is THE BEST ever!

08-Aug-2021

I don't have enough words to describe how much I appreciate Collins and his of expertise. I traveled in a group of 9. We had a limited amount of time and budget, but he made it work! We started with a beautiful boat cruise in Chobe National Park. We were treated to a delicious lunch at Buzz Coffee in Kasane. We then went on a long game drive towards our campsite in Chobe. Our Kalahari Tours guide, with whom Collins collaborated for part of our excursion, ensured it was the best game drive I have ever experienced, and I have done about six safaris that were all wonderful. We had the best time camping under the beautiful African sky and were warm in our cots overnight. The next morning, we went on a shorter game drive during which we got very close to two big lions! It was the highlight of the trip for me. Our group was then seamlessly whisked away to Livingstone so we could spend several hours at Victoria Falls. Collins took great care of us, working out each and every detail from our initial booking until the last moment when our group was dropped off at the airport. He even coordinated our COVID PCR testing that needed to happen in a short window of time in order to catch our flight back to the US. Traveling this far during a global pandemic was a heavy lift, but Collins was highly communicative and flexible, reassuring us at every step of the journey. I cannot recommend his services highly enough! You will have the trip of a lifetime and feel confident that each arrangement is made thoroughly. Thank you, Collins, for the experience of a lifetime! Should I be blessed enough to come back to this region, I will certainly employ your services again. You've set a high bar and I am greatly appreciative of all you did for us. I felt like we all gained a friend in meeting you! :) ...more ...less

Great coordination on the ground level!

06-Dec-2021

Thanks to Collins for helping us get through a tough time during the recent covid lockdown in Southern Africa. Your timely efforts were much appreciated. We look forward to getting back to this part of the world very soon and having a memorable time. Thanks for handling all the ground-level coordination efficiently. Keep up the great work. See you soon! ...more ...less

Sehenswert

25-Jan-2020

Hier muss man wissen, dass der Chief das Sagen hat. Wir hatten das Glück und haben ebendiesen kennengelernt, der uns erzählt hat, wie das Leben in der Ortschaft funktioniert. Kein Strom, kein Wasser, kein garnix. Dennoch erwecken die Leute dort durchaus den Eindruck, dass sie glücklich sind. Auch haben Sie die Möglichkeit, in die Hütten hineinzusehen, um zu sehen, wie die Menschen ebendort wohnen. Natürlich werden Sie am Ende der Tour in den örtlichen Souvenirladen geführt, um dennoch Gegenstände zu erwerben. Dennoch sehenswert. Gezeichnet Peter Nemeth ...more ...less
