5.0/5With short notice within a week, the tour operator provided us with multiple options of national parks and we booked within days of travelling. The communication was very precise for pickup times. Service was impeccable there was always a time ready for us to be picked up and was always on time. Was great value for money and made a lot of memories on the way! Would recommend this company for all your safari needs! Being locals they also assisted us on finding extra curricular activities like places to eat and bars to enjoy.
Adriano Maimone · Australia
Our game drive was guided by Vincent. He is unanimously the star of the drive. Very knowledgeable and humorous, making the drive highly entertaining and intellectually rewarding. Sir MacDonalds, the person whom we interacted with prior to the drive, was extremely patient with all our inquiries and accommodative. All in all, I find Rockfowl Safaris service exceptional and will not hesitate to recommend them to my friends and family.
Tan Ke Wei · Malaysia
The transfers between accommodation and Chobe were seamless. Guides go out of their way to assist and accommodate requests. Safari was truly worth it!
Sean Bissett · South Africa
The tour is well organized. Safari jeep was comfortable, the driver & guide Twist is very professional and knowledgeable person (thanks to him we managed to observe the lions!). Small coffee break before game drive start was surprisingly good. Finally during the game drive we manage to see 4 animals from big 5. The lunch was good and well arranged (although a lot of people simultaneously had). Reg Boat drive - I expected small boat but realistically this was big one, therefore was not so maneuverable (not possible to closely see the animals). Also boat tour lasted just 2h (I though this should be longer).
