What an amazing experience
We have travelled with Discover Africa during February 2015 and we were looked after by Carel Verhoef, our safari planning was made easy by the wealth of knowledge and wonderful service, care and attention we received from Discover Africa and our safari to Tanzania was as expected, well planned and got us into areas where few others were. We found the Great Wildebeest migration because of this where many others failed, thanks for a once in a lifetime safari Carel!

Creators of a dream holiday with adventure, mts, activities & unique wildlife & some luxury treats
Communications:
Excellent combination of calling to chat about plans and details, followed up with emailing of detailed information. Made all arrangements easy for us from the actual booking to payment procedures, exchange rate recommendations, visa advice, packing advice and suggestions for malaria prophylaxis amongst other details.
Service:
Went above and beyond to help adapt the itinerary to suit everyone's needs and timings. Made excellent suggestions based on group travelling and ensured that all of us were happy.
Expectations:
Exceeded ! Was impressed with the knowledge of the consultant (Carel Verhoef) of not only the country (Uganda) but the best transport routes, practical solutions to travel plans, excellent ideas and well chosen accommodation establishments. He helped and arranged all the details with diligence and really listened to what our needs were and then made it happen. Will definitely use them again.
Tour:
Everything and more than we expected. From a luxurious & relaxing (much-needed) start of the trip, to smooth transfers, an incredible hike and mountain experience, a unique wildlife experience that should be on everyone's bucket list and then a calm and gentle wrap up with great wildlife and lodge choices. The assistance during the trip was also superb as we had a typical "travel-in-Africa" experience where we were delayed and there was a risk of missing our Gorilla Trek and losing our permits. During the 'race' to make it in time, the support from Discover Africa to help with arrangements was outstanding. (PS: You can't 'race' in Africa)
Thank you to Discover Africa for a trip of a lifetime. It will never be forgotten.

With Discover Africa I had the most wonderful experience of my life
My trip last August to Botswana was arranged by Discover Africa and I couldn't have chosen better. Everything was well organized and I didn't have to worry about anything. The safari tour was far beyong expectations; the accommodation was superb, the guides were fantastic, the sightseeing and the animals were out of this world. I can't wait to go back, hopefully the next time I will travel with my family so they can also experience a rich adventure of unlimited emotions and definitely it will be arranged by Discover Africa. A million thanks to Discover Africa for making my dreams come true.

A trip that was easy to organise and hard to forget.
We visited Madikwe and Madagascar for our honeymoon in 2014. It was a dream trip that was made possible by Discover Africa. The best part of their service was the ease with which it was handled. Their website is very clear and full of options and the consultants are prompt in their response. I usually book various parts of my holidays through separate operators because I feel I can mix n match as I please but booking the entire trip through Discover Africa left me feeling like I was in good hands and making the right choices. Madikwe and Madagascar were both fantastic destinations that I can recommend. We saw big 5 on our first day!

Dream safari honeymoon!
From the first interaction with Megan and the Discover Africa team I knew I could trust them with my honeymoon plans. Communication was fantastic with all my requests and changes quickly addressed. They also provided great advice on accomadation and things to do. The trip itself was once in a life time and something my wife and I will never forget. Everything was perfectly organized allowing me to relax and enjoy our special time together. I would definitely recommend discovering Africa with Discover Africa!

Kilimanjaro Private Climb
We had a wonderful experience with the Discover Africa team on our trip to Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar. Due to unforeseen circumstances we needed to head down early and their team were most helpful in arranging exciting new options for us while we waited to travel to the rest of our holiday destinations. Overall a sensational trip and all round excellent service.

our agent was very efficient and replied to our emails without any waiting and worrying.
We went on Safari to Phinda Game reserve which was our choice as was the the choice of 2 nights on the Rovos train.Our agent was quite happy with helping us with anything we requested. We worked out dates of where we wanted to be and when and for how long and Meagan was very helpful in getting the whole trip to work in. She worked especially well with us as we chose to make some bookings ourselves and she fell in with we wanted to do. We would not hesitate in recommending Discover Africa to friends who are looking to spend time in your part of the world.

Discover Africa organized a perfect Botswana safari for us
It took one e-mail to Discover Africa (very friendly and competent staff), one phone call for details and one phone call for minor modifications and in the end we had a perfect holiday experience - a magical Botswana safari as they titled it.
The self-driving tour (4x4 camper) included Kalahari, the pans, Okavango, Victoria falls, Tuli block. In detail we have been at some fantastic spots we would have missed without their recommendations. The pre-organized accommodation (on campgrounds in our camper, in tented camps, in hotels and in luxury safari lodges) turned out as a mixture tailored to us.
Summary: Discover Africa organized a perfect trip for us.
