Fulfilling experience. Welcoming staff. Good communication.
Pros: Staff is remarkable. Peter communication while planning the trip was on point. Mutemi driving/guiding skills went beyond our expectations. He truly made sure to give us the best experience possible (that includes that he cleaned the car everyday and was always on time).
Plentiful bottled water was provided.
Our stay at Zebra Mara Plains was lovely.
Cons: They don’t take credit cards, so the whole Swift transfer can be a little tedious.
Although the Land Cruiser performance was good, we saw that some companies have cars that are better equipped.

Excellent service with memories made forever
They had excellently communication with us. There was no hard sell, giving you time to decide which safari would suit you best. We went on an safari for 3 days and 2 nights stay in Katatu in a country lodge with all meals included. The lodge was very comfortable and clean, the staff were very helpful. Lovely peaceful stay. The driver (William) was very helpful and supportive. He also was very knowledgeable about the areas we visited. Making it an amazing experience for us to never forget.

We had a versatile safari experience as a high-light of our journey
+ Communication (pre-safari) was fast
+ Our guide was very good and an excellent story teller
+ Food (local specialities prepared by the guide‘s wife) was delicious
+ Combination of Kruger camps + Sabi Sands luxury accommodation gave us a more holistic idea of the different types of parks and safari styles
- panorama route was below our expectation (looking back we‘d rather choose to spend one more day in the Kruger nationalpark because)

Excellent service, great places, punctual to the minute!
It has been a great experience to have Discover Africa to organise our luxury safari to Botswana. We have experienced great attention by Matthys van Aswegen from the first contact onwards. At the last minute one of our party of four had to arrive on a later flight in Maun, but Matthys fixed the schedule, and the person flew to the lodge on small plane. The party even managed to get together for the first game drive at Leroo La Tau. We stayed in three lodges, all were great, all of the staff amazing (they nursed their guests), and we enjoyed watching the animals and birds (more than 100 species). Everything was as promised and if anything better than expected.
Highly recommended!

Great safari with AAA Express
Overall our trip was perfect. Jalala was very helpful to accommodate our schedule and to ensure we have pick-up/drop-off from/airport. The team was very nice and helpful,we feel very comfortable whole the time. The food was delicious and always a lot and fresh. Our cook Mike as well was doing a great job by serving us tasty meals. Our driver and guide Steven is a very good man and he is very experienced.All the accommodations were great. Our tents were the biggest. The Seronera
pimbi campsite was very basic but offered a memorable experience, with the real taste of the Safari.But the best thing about this tour was obviously the wildlife,
we were not expecting to see so many animals, so we really enjoyed ourselves.We warmly recommend his agency.

Also the chef Boca for his amazing food. Our server was exceptionnel and all the porters. It was a great fun until this end.
A unforgettable trip.

Great 4-day trip that exceeded our expectations
Communications: Communication prior to the booking of the tour was very easy and uncomplicated. Although we were a bit late with our inquiry, Emma was very fast to provide us with a suitable tour perfectly designed to our needs.
Living up to expectations: We had a great tour and it was better than we could possible expect. Especially our guide, but also our cook contributed a lot to it. Both were very friendly, always checking on our needs and providing us with a great experience of the landscape, wildlife and food of Tanzania. We are vegetarians and the cook supplied us with delicious vegetarian food and insights into the Tanzanian culture and society.
Safari tour: It was amazing to see all the animals in their natural habitat. Already at the end of the second day, we saw the so-called Big 5 animals and many more. The driver was very patient with us, and we spent two hours following a hungry and hunting cheetah. Our guide was very knowledgeable and knew many secret spots and the behavior of the animals so that we were often one of the only cars watching an animal.
Overall: Looking back at the two weeks that we had in Tanzania, the tour was our favorite part and the best possible experience we could get.

Three fantastic days at Ruaha
My adult son and I had three wonderful days in Ruaha National Park, organised and hosted by Wild Gaze Safaris. Communication from Wild Gaze before the trip was excellent, and when a problem with our payment (caused by a third party payment system) became apparent Wild Gaze were excellent at finding solutions.
Wild Gaze sent us a detailed plan for the three days prior to travelling to Iringa. The plan was exactly what we had asked for. My son and I caught a bus from Dodoma to Iringa, and were met at the bus station by Isaac our guide and driver. We then travelled to Ruaha, stopping at a wonderful restaurant for lunch about 30 minutes away from the Park entrance. After lunch we had a full afternoon in the park where Isaac found a large number of giraffes (my favorite animals) and a wide variety of other game. After sunset we had an excellent dinner at the restaurant in the Park, and then went to our accommodation. The beds were comfortable, and the bathroom facilities were adequate.
The next day we had an early breakfast and then were out promptly into the park where we saw a huge number of elephants (my son's favourite), and a huge range of other animals. The highlight was finding three lionesses stalking and then chasing a herd of water buffalo. It was spectacular and we had front row seats!
We were delighted to see at least three different groups of lions, and a huge range of different types of game.
Isaac was very knowledgeable and pointed out features of plants, birds, landscape, and game that we would not have otherwise been alert to. We certainly had a fabulous time. The safaris were outstanding, the meals were excellent, the banda accommodation was comfortable, and the connections with our buses at Iringa went smoothly. Also, Isaac made sure we were satisfied with what was happening during the day.
Wild Gaze Safaris did a brilliant job.
