Susan read our minds and gave us the best trip!!
I first contacted Susan last September when I first thought we were going to take our dream trip to Africa. She got back to me quickly, and showed me an itinerary I didn’t think was possible with our budget. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to do that trip due to flight issues, so when we were able to reschedule for June, I immediately contacted her. Once again, she worked her magic and gave us a trip we thought we could’ve only dreamed about. I would recommend Susan to anyone. The trip she sent us on made us fall in love with Africa, so much that we want to get married there. When we do, I will definitely send me friends and family to her if they want to extend their trips and see more of Africa. If you don’t book with Susan, you are missing out! Thank you, Susan, for the trip of a lifetime.

The whole trip was fantastic with all connections seemless.
Best family holiday we have ever had. All planning transfers and accommodation were perfect. Adelle communication was always prompt and efficient. We would definitely recommend Discover Africa.

Everything was perfect!
This was our most favorite trip ever!! It was nice to have a schedule of pick-up and drop-off times for the whole trip. This made the trip go so smoothly and made it stress-free. All of the hotels/resorts were 5 star!!

Highly Recommend! Planned a trip of a lifetime.
I would highly recommend Megan Warrington from Discover Africa. She planned the trip of a lifetime for my family! She was professional, service oriented and every detail was done perfectly. During the trip, Megan reached out to check in to see how things were going and she also offered her own personal phone number should we need anything. Megan went above and beyond and I could not recommend a better travel agent. We will be using her in the future. Thank you.

Seamless Experience !
Megan, thank you!
I am so pleased I worked a 6 night Safari into my Itinerary.
3 nights, 2 days in each park was simply perfect.
Jock Safari Lodge in Kruger was outstanding in all areas, I recommend without hesitation.
Further north, the Sabi Sands provided excellent sightings.

The Serengeti: Big Cats, Big Herds, The Big Five, the Best Guide
My early July eight-day safari was supposed to capture the Mara River crossings but the herds failed to cooperate and had only just reached the river on the last day. Nonetheless the safari was a fabulous success. We flew from Zanzibar directly to Lake Manyara to minimize drive times and spend more days on game drives. Antoinette put our trip together: the lake, Ngorongoro Crater, the Central Serengeti and the Northern Serengeti. Our guide delivered the goods. Penuel Tango had a vast knowledge of both the animals and the lay of the land along with a fully equipped and fully working vehicle that made the daily game drives easy and fun. Not only did he know where to find the prized critters, he could spot them from far away when all we could see were grass and trees. Lions, leopards, cheetahs, jackals, rhinos, elephants, buffalo, and the great herds were all open to us on every drive. He knew the stories of lion prides in the area. Our goal was to see as many animals as we could and we did. We were up close and personal with lions, cheetahs and leopards on every drive. He was patient made waiting for action a priority and in being so we were often had "private" viewings of the big cats.
The huge herds of the Northern Serengeti were a wonder to see and experience up close as they made their way north and Penuel knew all about them, their habits and life cycles.
Overnight lodging was the lesser part of each day but Antoinette arranged great camps with good food and accommodations that all had very attentive and friendly staff. Boxed lunches provided for game drives were sufficient and varied. July is peak season for safaris and we saw and learned about the experiences of others. Not all were perfect. Not all were well planned. Broken vehicles and bad guides happen. With Discover Africa we didn't have any troubles anytime during the adventure. The planning time Antoinette spent with me up front paid off mightily. Zoom calls with her topped trying to do things only by email.
Everything happened right on time and without any hitches. Flights were smooth and effortless, accommodations seamless, Guide interactions perfect. Excellent work all around.

Professional, excelence service, trustful and totally recommendable.
We had the pleasure to have Vihann from Discover Africa, as our travel agent. What a nice and easy experience.
He always delivered more than expected. Very professional, fast, flexible and attentive.
We were totally positive surprised that booking with them was cheaper than by ourselfs and with better services and rooms!!!
So we cannot be more than happy and thankful to Vihann for providing us the best trip that we could ever had imagined in our first time in Africa.
He did everything and we get all the trip details in a very nice format.
We recommend Vihann as the AGENT to fullfill any needs in Africa without hesitation.
Thanks again Vihann!!!

Amazing!
My family and I had a great time on our trip to Botswana and Zimbabwe. It's been a long time coming, since we booked this trip for the summer of "nothing" (2020) and had to reschedule for 2023. Adelle was fantastic and patient as we made date changes several times. The hotels and experiences at these hotels were great--including the super fun (casino) hotel in Johannesburg. That made the overnight we weren't really looking forward to so fun.
Adelle covered all of the details and was amazingly responsive for the 7-hour time difference. She answered every question we had. The hotels were beautiful, good safaris and great service. We were even upgraded to the Safari Club in Victoria Falls, which was an extra treat. The river safari in Botswana was a family favorite, as was the tour of Victoria Falls. I also want to say the border crossing between Botswana and Zimbabwe would have been a little nerve-wracking if we were doing it on our own.
Great trip! I highly recommend them and have done so already with several friends. I plan to use Discover Africa on our next trip to Africa.
