Really exciting
One of the most exciting safari that I have done. The scenery is fantastic and the landscapes are gorgeous. We stayed at Serengeti for three night in a new lodge that was very comfortable. During the safari we have been lucky to observe fantastic hunting scenes, and all kind of animals Cheetahs, Lions, Buffalos, Elephants, Leopards and so on.
The Weather has been fantastic, every day sunny, dry and not so hot. One of the best thing of the winter season is the absence of mosquitos.

Review about South Africa by coldfish88
In my limited experience, I find that South Africa has good transportation infrastructure and management to easily get you to the camps, and then has the great facilities in private camps that make it possible to maximize the "bush vibe."

Feedback on trip
We are very inexperienced and somewhat timid travellers and were quite nervous about many aspects of visiting Africa. However I was impressed by the detailed information which we received beforehand and any minor concerns we had were addressed by Safarihub staff.
The trip also went flawlessly, much to our relief.

Top notch. JDA curated a unique safari itinerary based on our interests/needs. Highly recommend!
Patrick and Journey Discovering Africa are absolutely phenomenal!!! They plan every aspect of your trip so you can relax and completely enjoy your safari holiday. Patrick planned an 8 day / 7 night safari in Botswana, which included 3 different camps, 3 flights and an overland border crossing. Here's why I loved my experience with JDA:
1) Speedy communication. Patrick emailed and called me within 12 hours of my initial request.
2) Customized trip for your specific needs. The package on safaribookings.com was a suggested itinerary and Patrick explained that my friend and I could modify the route (including the start and end points), camps/lodges, number of nights, etc.
3) Knowledge of safari camps. There's endless info about all the different camps online, and it's pretty overwhelming. However, Patrick asked us about our interests/personalities, travel style, safari expectations, budget, things we wanted to see, etc. Based on that info, he curated a unique trip just for us. All 3 camps were perfect.
4) Handles last minute requests. Patrick must of thought I was crazy when I said our desired dates were less than 2 weeks away. August is peak season in the Okavango, but somehow he found availability at the camps and on the small planes used for transport between camps/lodges. I'm still not sure how he managed it all in 1.5 days. Really impressive!
5) Sit back, relax and enjoy. Once we arrived at the initial meeting point, we were always with a handler (outside of relax time) until the next handler greeted us.
Overall, I'd highly recommend Patrick and JDA. In fact, we're already used them again to coordinate another last minute safari in Etosha to find rhinos. We were fortunate enough to see black and white rhinos and even saw them mating!

Rwanda and DRC in 11 Days
Frank did an amazing job trying to juggle our 5 days in Rwanda with 6 additional days in DRC that we asked him to organize for us. Our itinerary changed at the last minute as two Volcanoes NP mountain gorilla permits came up just before we left home (yay!) and Frank just moved everything around without any issues. He's a great driver and a very knowledgable guide and we loved criss crossing Rwanda with him.
He then connected us with his associate for our DRC - Goma to Bukavu segment and although we had a few issues with unexpected hotel rate increases and the visa process, we managed to do it all. DRC is not for the faint of heart! Finally Frank located and coordinated with D'jambo in Kinshasa to get us to the bonobos and they did a fantastic job as well.
Thanks for the awesome tour Frank and Golden Rwanda! One note - make sure you arrive at the front gate of Akagera NP before 6PM or you'll end up in protracted discussions with NP and lodge personnel before they let you in! :-)
Mahalo Nui Loa Frank - hoping you do make it out here to Hawaii!

Outstanding tour Agency!
I used Acheche Tours to book a trip to Mombasa and was extremely satisfied. Courteous and knowledgeable staff. Their service and response time is Excellent. They will book any aspect of your trip and are available should you have further questions or changes. Our driver Omar was friendly and very professional. He was always on time and has a wealth of knowledge about the area which adds to the trip. Our accommodation was fantastic. I can't say enough good things about Acheche tours. I look forward to working with them again in the future.
