It was very smooth and organized.
We loved working with Discover Africa for our trip. Matthys was excellent to work with and gave us great advice on how to maximize our time in Africa. We went to South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. Everything was so well organized and we did not have to worry about a thing while we were gone. It was truly an unforgettable experience and we've had so much fun telling our friends and family about our African adventure. I highly recommend Discover Africa and can't wait to go to Africa again!

Excellent Advice for a Safari in South Africa
Karl was a great advisor for our Safari in a game reserve in South Africa
We started the search late for a period when everything is almost booked, but Karl never gave up and proposed us something that fitted perfectly for our family of 7 from Argentina.
The place, staff and experience was great, and we are very pleased with Karl and Discovery Africa service.
Thanks Karl!

Helpful travel coordinator planned the perfect trip
Service: The planning services provided by Discover Africa were top notch. They were very responsive to our communication and very friendly. We encountered an issue where one of the places we wanted to stay booked up at the last minute, but Discover Africa handled it very professionally (alerting us to the change, providing multiple alternative options, trying their best to secure us a good rate given the trouble). They checked in with us before the trip to make sure we had what we needed and checked in after the trip as well. Great travel company!
Experience: we spent two nights in Kruger National Park at Hamilton’s tented lodge. The setting and amenities were everything you could have asked for, including onsite wildlife, friendly staff, beautiful rooms, good food, stops for coffee and cocktails during game drives, afternoon massages, etc. Highly recommend both Kruger and Hamilton’s.

Easy and Seamless Process in Planning Your South Africa Trip
Communication:
I reached out to multiple tour agencies when trying to book my safari. Out of all of them, Discover Africa stood out the most. Their communication response was excellent. They responded emails quickly, gave the option of communicating through WhatsApp, and phone calls. This was key in getting the conversation rolling.
Helpfulness:
The agent I worked with was Megan. She took the time to understand my interests, budget, and questions. Based on that, she provided more personalized options when deciding the proper safari lodges, travel, and accommodations to consider.
Easiness:
The agency provided very detailed and personalized itinerary just for me online and a PDF version on email as well. Even once the safari was booked many months in advance, Megan reached out about a week before my travel dates and sent all the documents necessary to make my travels easy pre-tour, during the tour, and post tour.
I will definitely consider using Discover Africa again next time I am back.

Our safari dreams came true!
Megan was absolutely amazing. She really listened to what I wanted for my family’s first Safari. Megan was super detailed and always available for any questions or concerns.
Royal Madikwe was exactly what we were looking for. Our game drive tracker, Douctor was very knowledgeable and respectful of the animals space. My kids loved him! We learned so much and saw everything we wanted to see. The food was phenomenal and the staff was so kind and professional. Our accommodation was beautiful and comfortable.
What a fantastic family adventure!

5 Star Service for a great Family vacay~
The trip was fantastic. Megan was great to work with. We didn't really know what to expect but were surprised with the amenities of the lodges and the uniqueness of the safaris. All of the guides and service staff were so kind.

Wow! Awesome service and a tour to match.
I was most impressed that Jako, from Discover Africa, took the time to call me to discuss what we wanted and expected from our tour. My partner had been to Botswana twice before and so I wanted to go somewhere he had not been. I had some ideas but with Jako's help we came up with a super package. The booking itself was easy, all questions were answered promptly, great communication throughout the entire procedure.
The trip itself was superb, everything we wanted, expected and a whole lot more. All pickups went to plan, the lodges were outstanding, the guides at the lodges were professional, organised and did their best to show us what we wanted. We wanted 3 completely different destinations and that's what we got. Jako's suggestions were spot on. We loved Leroo La Tau & Camp Xakanaxa. Both camps were small with amazingly friendly and genuine staff, we had great animal sightings at both and they were very different camps & locations. The whole tour exceeded our expectations.

Excellent attention and bespoke travel experience
In planning for a trip one year out, I 'interviewed' US, European, and African travel companies. Matthys of Discover Africa listened to what I wanted to accomplish for the group of 10, was willing to make changes and make better suggestions than the ones I had, and did so at a price point that could not be beat. That was all pre-departure. Once the trip started, Matthys' knowledge of his country and his understanding of our group and my desires as a group leader, showed up in the stunning lodgings he selected (locations, services, and amenities), the activities he had planned and suggested, and his partnership with Ilios as a guide and transport service in many of the places we visited. I was the only one of the 10 who had been to Africa and because of the professionalism, creativity, and individual attention that Matthys gave to us, the others are all ready to return with friends and families - and to use the excellent services of Discover Africa. Many thanks, Matthys and team!
