Our contact at Discover Africa was knowledgeable and helpful and made our trip smooth and easy.
Discover Africa took my husband's outline of where we were interested in traveling and turned it into a fantastic trip. Diane at Discover Africa recommended the lodges we stayed at in South Africa, Zambia, and Botswana, and all were first rate. Each place had something special about it and each had wonderful safari guides. We had an amazing two weeks and can recommend Discover Africa Safaris without qualification. Thank you for a very meaningful and heart-opening trip!

Excellent Safari advice and guidance
We booked a trip to Kapama Buffalo Camp through Devryn Panaino at Discover Africa. He checked out several options within our budget. He was very responsive or one of his colleagues (thanks Megan) replied to our questions. We booked directly from the UK but the whole process was very smooth. Would highly recommend and will definitely contact again if we are looking for another safari or other African experiences in the near future.
The safari itself exceeded expectation. We saw the big five on more than one occasion. The guide and tracker (Themba & Zakes) were very knowledgeable. We also were able to go on a bush walk and learn more about our surroundings. The camp itself was immaculate, all of the staff friendly and helpful. They have great chefs. One thing that was very helpful was a ‘suggested’ tip guide. Tips can also be paid via credit card should you prefer.
Thanks to everyone involved at Kapama Buffalo camp.

Oustanding safari through Discover Africa Safaris
I had an unforgettable safari organized through Discover Africa Safaris in September. I worked closely with Chrizaan Troch who was just outstanding. She was very attuned to my interests and importantly, my budget. She provided several options and gave objective information on each. At every step of the planning, she was available. I received regular updates, and as the time the safari neared, gave me a lot of important information, including sharing her cell phone should I need assistance. The safari was beyond what I even dreamed off. The accomodations, lodging, staff, etc. were amazing, as was the incredible wildlife I witnessed. I highly recommend Discover Africa Safaris. You won't be disappointed.

Capturing the Experience
You listened and captured our unknown desires for this trip. You created memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.
Expedition is for those that want to really connect. It is for those seeking adventure. You understood that we wanted to be connected to nature, not be around a lot of people, have an austere experience in the bush yet with luxurious accommodations. We could not have imagined how well you would nail our preferences. Beginning with our travel to the camps. The flights and helicopters were filled with excitement and expertise. We felt well cared for with each transition.
Onto the Delta, African Bush Camps are magical – from the staff to the landscape to the animals to the accommodations and especially the guides. Just wow!
Our placement at Expedition was the perfect way to start our adventure. Expedition makes you feel alive!
Noah, our guide and Witness the second guide were knowledgeable, welcoming and wonderful to safari with. They made each day feel as if it was their first day exploring that area. Their knowledge and welcoming spirit made them fast friends. Noah's knowledge was unbelievable. He spent time on the flora, fauna, birds and the beautiful traditions of the people in Botswana. We were completely impressed with Noah, Witness and the staff at Expedition.
You also knew that we would want to be there for three nights and four days. I recall pressing you for more and you encouraged me to take your recommendations, and you were right. Our transition to Leadwood happened at the right time. We relaxed and enjoyed the diversity from Expedition to Leadwood. Bonda our guide will forever be in our hearts and will remain a friend for a lifetime. Bonda, who is from the local village, made it feel as if we had a secret guide into the backyard playground of this area. He was respectful of the land and animals. He shared the traditions of his people. His laugh is contagious! He did a great job supporting and teaching Mumzi, one of the trainee female guides - who did a fabulous job, as well.
When I asked if I could bring things to the school kids in the village, African Bush Camps went the extra mile to help facilitate all aspects of this request. Due to your efforts, we were able to support the school in a myriad of ways that they needed. We were impressed to learn the lengths African Bush Camp goes to support the area communities. Our support will be continued going forward.
The lodges were beautiful, the staff caring and the experience wonderful. We will be back!
