Adelle is super friendly, understanding, and takes the accommodation bar to the next level!
We started working with Adelle in 2021 to start planning our October 2022 honeymoon. Right from the first point of communication, she asked us what our dream honeymoon entailed and what our budget was. Our dream honeymoon included 2 days of rest + a Mount Kili hike, 6 days of safaris (1 @ Lake Manyara, 1 @ Ngorongoro Crater, and 4 @ the Northern Seregenti) then 4 days of beach time in Zanzibar. From those ideas, she provided a detailed itinerary. From lodges to stay at, to drivers / transfers, plane rides, excursion ideas, visas, possible vaccines ... everything. She was detailed and there were zero hiccups! Throughout our entire planning time, she was always there to offer reasoning, as well as any other ideas to include on our trip. She was always an email or even a call away! We really trusted her with our trip and I cannot thank her enough for making our dream honeymoon come true. We definitely will be trusting her with another trip soon!
We cannot recommend Adelle (+ Discover Africa) enough. From the places she booked, to how easy and effortless it was for us to be in Tanzania. Just WOW. Book it - We promise you, you won't regret it!

Just Amazing!!!!
We went for 20 days camping in the bush. Difficult to describe how this experience was.
So many animals, differents landscapes. The most enjoyable I think still is the quality of the guide and all the team.
Everyday has been a new day for learning more about animal's way of life, plants etc.
All the team was so friendly and professional.
Meals accomodation, everything was fine according to the fact you are in the middle of nowhere. Big tent with shower and toilet,tasty meals.....
We have just finished our trip but we already miss all of you...

Excellent guide and company
Edward was our guide, and he was excellent. He was thoughtful, very aware of our feelings and needs, and always positive. He constantly was looking for ways to make sure we were having a good time.
Furthermore, he was exceptionally good at spotting wildlife. For example, we were watching a herd of zebras by the river. He said they looked nervous and there was probably a lion nearby. He slowly drove forward and then spotted a female in the bushes, about 50 feet from the car, walking toward the herd. He then saw a male. Within minutes, both broke into a sprint, causing the zebras to stampede. The male lion grabbed a zebra from behind with both claws and his mouth. The zebra jumped wildly and kicked violently, breaking free. However, the female disappeared in the deep grass, most likely with a zebra.
He also spotted pythons on 2 occasions near the car, and they are very difficult to see. Additionally, we saw a cheetah chase a herd of antelope. We saw cheetahs and leopards about 5 times each.
While we went to 4 parks, the Serengeti was by far the best. The Ngorongoro Crater is beautiful and worth a half-day. I thought he was doing a better job than the other drivers out there. It just seemed like we were the 1st car at several sightings. We spent a couple hours at a Masai village on the 1st day, which was very enlightening and worthwhile.
Norah at Easy Travel was exceptionally patient as we set up our tour over the prior year. The airline changed our flight dates twice, resulting in Nora having to reschedule all the lodging. Yet, she was always pleasant. We requested their luxury lodging. Three of the four lodges were great. These were the Lake Manyara Kilimamoja Lodge, the Melia Serengeti Lodge, and Lemala Mpingo Tended Lodge. The food and staff were excellent.

Very good value for money and a very professional operator
We have booked an 11 day safari through Kenia and Tanzania. Beforehand Big Time Safaris got in touch with us and handled everything very professional.
For the Kenia part Simon was our tour guide, who did an incredible job! He took care of us from the very first minute and we felt very safe driving with him. He gave very good recommendations e.g. to be aware of sellers that are popping up everywhere you stop and to not feel pressured by them.
When it came to game driving Simon was absolutely outstanding! He was very well educated and could tell us all about the animals and their surrounding. He maintained very good communication with the other guides in the park, he knew where to look for animals, he knew when we wanted to take a picture and achieved a great perspective without the need to tell him.
Beware that travelling through so many parks involves a lot of driving on very bumpy roads, which can get really stressful and should not be underestimated. Some days involved 12h of driving on those roads which has to be endured once onboard.
However, when looking back we remember all the great memories we could collect with Simon! Thank you!

Excellent Safari w/ good comfort and very well-educated tour guide
The communication with Geoffrey via WhatsApp was always very friendly, direct and immediately. He also arranged an extra transfer from another hotel and and an special transfer.
Our tour guide Daniel was very familiar with all animals and plants visible in all 4 national Parks we visited. He was spotting animals not only by direct observation but also taking into account tracks, prey and typical sorrounding. He had a very good feeling where to find the rarest animals and was always providing interesting extra information - thanks to his university education also with a scientific-biological level.
Our chef for the Safari, Moshi was also outstanding regarding quality and also quantity of the food he served. Especially his soups were really great and are to recommend. Taking into account we were doing a camping Safari, his fulfilling of extra requests and the permanent provision of vegetarian options was excellent.
Additionally all staff was very friendly and humorous.

Best Tour Ever
We visited Kenia with my mum although with her it was not the first for her like me. We contacted Native Afrika Voyages through Charity with requests of tailor making our 5 days safari. She was very fast in responding to our questions and she offered us different options on our proposed 5 days safari. We did Ol Pejeta, Lake Naivasa and Masai mara which proved to be exactly what i was dreaming about Africa.
We were met at the airport very late (they offered to pick us up), and we had a night at a standard hotel in Nairobi for just some few hours before we started our safari the following day.
We started our safari with an excellent and amazing guide Alex who was very educative about culture and wildlife, his knowledge and passion for the animals was just incredible, we did get to learn a lot from him. On our last day from Maasai Mara we saw the last missing out of the big 5 the rhino.
We stayed at Sweetwaters, Sawela lodge and serena mara, this selection of lodges was amazing with very friendly, good food, perfect locations for the animals and amazing views.
I am looking forward to bringing my friends on safari in the near future.
Thank you, Charity, Alex and the Native Afrika Voyages Team for the amazing and forever memorable tour with my mum.
I would highly recommend 100% .

Homes to Africa put the customers needs first.
Homes to Africa were recommended to us by a friend who had previously used them and they did not disappoint. From first contact they were efficient in responding and answering any questions we had.
On the tour we had Balam who was awesome! He catered to our needs and went that extra mile. His knowledge of the animals and locations was excellent.
Food and accommodation on the tour were excellent. Even with dietary requirements, they met all of our needs and more!
I would definitely recommend Homes to Africa for anyone in the future.
