Wonderful experience! - We had a wonderful tour of Victoria Falls with Philip and his colleague. He was attentive, friendly and made sure we got a wonderful experience. He's very knowledgeable. His colleague (who drove and partially accompanied us at the falls) was also very friendly and kind.
Would highly recommend a tour with them !

Amazing rafting by Zambezi! - We had a truly amazing rafting by Zambezi!
The water was high and it was indeed interesting to pass through it, the views were wonderful
The team was super professional, so we were instructed well before and then had great experience. There were only 2 of us, so we were driving the boat together with the team. Even though the water has high we felt safe and there also was a security guy on the other boat around
Also we had a stop for rest with water abs snacks and there was a photographer around who took nice pics of our trip
After the trip we had a hiking time (also requires some energy) to get to the car and also tasty lunch
Thanks a lot to the team, the experience was memorable!

Best thing to do by the Falls! - In an area that has so many activities and day trips this is number one… it is a little challenging rafting and hiking but anyone and everyone can do it.. you will not regret choosing it!

Super rafting trip against incredible backdrop - We had a great day with Ayoba and his great team from Mavumina! It wasn’t just another touri-fun activity but a real nature-culture-sports experience in the beautiful canyon of the Zambezi. We were super looked after from start to finish, everything was explained very well and we always felt safe on the water - even when falling out of the boat;-) We had a lot of fun on and in the water and with the team, but you should know that in the meantime it gets really sporty when paddling and especially when climbing out of the canyon after the tour. We would also recommend long-sleeved clothes to everyone, we got quite burned despite sunscreen... After the delicious lunch you get a good insight into life on the way back to the town, which we also found very impressive. We would definitely recommend Ayoba and his team! As the only local providers, they do a great job!

An unforgettable adventure on the Zambezi river - We have never done white water rafting before, but the whole team was so patient and accommodating with us, that you immediately felt like a part of the crew. Thank you captain Ayoba and your professional, friendly team for this incredible adventure and great memories. It was a pleasure to meet all of you. We definitely also appreciated an amazing home cooked lunch, great pics and highly professional video package, as we “concurred” the Zambezi rapids :)
Because we only had limited time in Zambia, we were only able to do a half day activity. But, we are definitely coming back for more!
So, if you are headed to Livingstone at anytime, I would highly recommend going white water rafting with captain Ayoba and his incredible team.

Fantastic experience and I cannot rate them any higher, I'd give 6 stars if I could !
Will absolutely do it again and this time ALL the rapids
Until next time.

Had a once in a lifetime experience to do white water rafting with wonderful scenery working together to ride the wave. - We recently engaged Mavumina Safaris and Tours in Livingstone for a white-water rafting adventure, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience! As someone who isn’t very confident in challenging activities like this, I was initially very nervous—especially about the possibility of falling out of the boat.
However, our raft guide, Miyoba, was truly exceptional. He listened to my concerns, reassured me, and went out of his way to prioritize my safety and comfort throughout the entire trip. His professionalism and encouragement allowed me to relax and fully enjoy the experience.
The entire team, including the staff - Stick and porters, was incredibly supportive and well-organized. Thanks to their care and guidance, this adventure became one of the best memories of my trip to South Africa.
I highly recommend Mavumina Safaris and Tours for anyone looking to explore white-water rafting in Livingstone, and I can’t recommend Miyoba enough as the best raft guide! Thank you for making this experience so special!
