Meticulous planning and quick replies made this journey smoother than I thought possible!
There really aren't enough superlatives to describe this trip. Because we didn't have a hand in planning it (our friend who invited us to join them did) we were a little nervous about all the opportunities for problems to arise (i.e., in the many transfers and handovers required to move from place to place, company to company, and country to country.) We needn't have worried one bit. Every step of the way the transfers were perfect; there was ALWAYS someone at the other end waiting for us. If I had any question along the way I could just message our rep (Megan- the best!) and she would clarify in a very timely way.
Every place we stayed was great; every adventure perfectly fitted to us. I would not change a single thing in our entire three week adventure. I write a kind of travel blog and have people follow all my trips. Every one was amazed at the things we did and saw, and many are wanting to follow our path and take this journey themselves. And I encourage them to work with Discover Africa because everything was perfect. I travel a lot and have known my share of travel issues, but I did not have to do anything on this trip but enjoy it. And we enjoyed it immensely!

Adelle Bell did a perfect job, over three years, in arranging our trip to Namibia and South Africa.
Adelle was always available for emailed questions and worries.
Her destination and hotel ideas were always better than mine.
Her organisation was impeccable and made for a successful and trouble free trip.
Thank you.

A life time dream come true
Very seamless execution of what we had requested during initial email communications. Lodges chosen for us were all clean and comfortable. Some stood out in terms of food, service and level of accommodation. All lodges were perfectly located for the itinerary that we had agreed upon.
The safari experiences were exceptional mainly due to the expertise of our guide in spotting animals in the distance and following tracks. His knowledge and passion were core to our experience.
The hikes and other natural landscapes we had asked to visit were also perfectly executed whilst still allowing some flexibility for a few extra hikes.
We are a family of 5, children aged 12, 10 and 8. What we saw and learned will be remembered forever. Our guide was instrumental. His knowledge and passion for Namibia were palpable. He was able to read our needs both as adults and as parents of three kids.
I would recommend this company and our guide to anyone in a heartbeat.

We had the most wonderful time, and it was just – a great trip. All expectations met, or exceeded.
Throughout the whole period of planning, making up our minds, preparing for the trip and when a little support was needed while already in Namibia, Megan was always available and very helpful. It obviously did not matter to her that we once called for some support even during a public holiday (sorry, Megan, we didn't check for that....).
The route was very well layed out, Megan's suggestitions and planning made it very easy for us to fully enjoy our first visit to Africa.
Nice selection of well maintained camp sites and very beautiful lodges.
Should we plan for another visit to southern Africa, we will for sure check with Megan first.

We received a level of personalised support from Discover Africa that made all the difference!.
Our Cape Town stay and Safari in South Africa was truly an unforgettable experience.
Vihann Van Wyck was a great travel consultant and definitely very knowledgeable. He was also patient, proactive, super-fast at getting back during the whole planning process and with a warm personality. I travelled with my 20 years old son and Vihann took the time to understand our preferences and even hobbies and thus helped us select great unique locations both in Cape Town (The Marly in Camps Bay) and Madikwe Game Reserve (Kopano Lodge) also providing us with detailed useful tips to prepare the trip. Logistics of the trip itself ran smoothly and made us feel we were in good hands all the way.
The experience with the company overall has been superb and we will definitely consider Discover Africa again for future plans!.

Quick to respond and easy to talk with
We had the best trip to Zimbabwe and Botswana. The package that was created for us catered to all our wishes and needs. It was easy to plan with the agent and make the changes necessary to fit our needs. The trip itself was very relaxing as all the appointments and pick ups were on time and there waiting for us. We would highly encourage anyone planning a trip to Africa to use Discover Africa!

An adventure back to nature and experience life.
The first stop on our adventure was the Ngorongoro volcano. But the most memorable is the second leg of the expedition, the scene of the wildebeests crossing the Mara River. On the other side of the Mara River, a large group of wildebeests and zebras ran from three directions to gather on the river bank, and there were bursts of dust, forming a grand scene under the sun. . . . . Our group stayed at the Nasikia Mobil Migration Camp, which is a little further from the Mara River, but very comfortable. If you return to the camp early, you can enjoy the magnificent sunset with a glass of wine in front of the tent. The service team at the camp is very professional and enthusiastic. This alone also thanks to Organizing team of Discover Africa for careful arrangement.

Their empathic, expert planning delivered a safari to us that truly made our wishes come true.
While planning our family safari to the Okavango Delta, Chobe end Victoria Falls, with the support of Matthys van Aswegen, I realized that we were in safe hands. During the process of communication about all our concerns, wish list and ever present budget we were treated with the utmost respect. From start to finish our safari wert off without a hitch. During the trip itself the operator saw to it that we were met treated in a very friendly way to make us feel welcome everywhere we moved. The safari was a fantastic experience, way beyond our expectations, that will stay with us for a very long time. I would unreservedly recommend Discover Africa to plan your African safari!
