Excellent customer service, brilliant tours, exceptional client journey
What a fantastic choice we made! We are from the uk and decided to book our tour with a local African tour operator rather than someone from the uk who has never visited the place. The trip was booked pre-pandemic, however, all way through lockdown Megan from Discover Africa, contacted us regularly, kept us updated and made sure that as soon as the borders were open that our trip went ahead. We visited SA, Botswana, Namibia & Tanzania. Every transfer was on time, every hotel was excellent and on each safari we saw amazing things - including seeing the big 5 (although not guaranteed!)
Towards the end of the trip SA went on to the "red list" and we couldn't get home, what a relief it was to know that with a quick whatsapp call, Megan was on to it, hotels were booked and a tour of the Garden route sorted during our extended stay. Our favourites were Babylonstoren and Grootbost which allowed us to experience the diversity of South African nature.
The whole trip was an experience of a lifetime, the Serengeti, the Okavango Delta, Etosha, the Ngorongoro crater to name but a few places we visited.
In essence I would highly recommend Discover Africa to anyone wishing to travel there. I will most definitely be using them again. Great work Megan!

Climbin Kilimandjaro with Wild Ways - the best experience ever!
We as a couple climbed Kilimanjaro and did the Lemosho route in 7 days with Wild Ways. It was the best experience ever. Mariki gave us the best guide, Nelson, and a wonderful team.
At the moment we contacted Mariki and the company we knew that we are safe and everything will be prepared. They welcomed us at the airport. Brought us to the hotel. Organized for us the best guide and a wonderful team.
They motivated us to reach the summit. They cooked the best meal in high altitude. They shared their hearts with us. And they gave us unforgettable moments!
We came as strangers and we left friends! it felt like a family.
We can totally recommend Wild Ways Adventures, Mariki, Nelson and to do with them the Kilimanjaro tour!!!

Utter care and professionality
I traveled to Zambia with a friend in December 2021, on a trip organized by Kerry at Ntanda Ventures. I don't usually book with a travel operator but I decided to give it a try, and what a pleasant surprise it was. Kerry organized a one week trip that made us discover two of the best sites Zambia can offer: the South Luangwa National Park, and the Victoria Falls at Livingstone. In both sections of the trip, I really felt the attention to detail and the professionality of somebody who's been in the travel industry for long, knows the ins and out of the country, and knows how to handle unexpected changes a customer might face in light of the pandemic. My friend and I contracted a Covid infection just a week short of traveling to Zambia, and Kerry took care of rescheduling everything for us. On our way to the country, we read on the news that Zambia might put in quarantine, but Kerry was reassured us that it was not official news and told us exactly what to do at the border to have a smooth entrance into the country. Both the campsite at the South Luangwa NP and the hotel in Livingstone were marvelous and really made us feel us spoiled. Activities had been organized for us for every day, including game drives and a boat cruise, and we always had somebody from the two accomodations taking care of us, picking us at the airport and helping us during our stay, always with Kerry in the background for additional help. Overall, a great vacation and a great and professional tour operator. Thank you Kerry for your hard work!

reasonable price,quality service
During the trip, the tour guide service has a good attitude, introduces many wildlife knowledge and the local customs of Kenya. In the national park, the driver is more enthusiastic, take us to find a lot of animals. Accommodation hotel conditions good.

Cape Town and Kruger Safari
Discover Africa was very accommodating in holding the booking until travel restrictions were lifted. The trip itself was better then expected and went very smoothly. I'm glad I split the Kruger safari into two different places. Both places were recommended by Discover Africa and were first rate. Overall a good value, considering the stays at top-end lodging, transfers and R/T flight from Cape Town. Definitely will use Discover Africa again if I get the chance.

It was an amazing experience!
The safari was uncredible. We visited beautiful parks and saw so many different animals. Our guide did his utmost to show us as much as possible.

this is a travel agency with great service，own safari vehicles and high-end hotels
In August 2021, we will start from Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, and drive to Masai Mara National Park. We will stay in the camp hotel for three days. This luxurious and high-end hotel is located in Masai Mara Park, which can be very close. Contact with wild animals, there is a place outside my room where I can drink tea and bask in the sun, which I enjoy very much, the hotel provides three meals a day, as well as Chinese food, every day my driver takes me out to observe wild animals, I I also went to the Mara River and saw the scene of the great migration of wild animals. I was very shocked. This must be the most perfect trip in my life. I will go back to Kenya again in the future, and I will definitely choose Yuanda Travel Agency.

Excellent management and decent price
I was trying to book safari over safaribooking and sent 5 requests. Steve was the one (and actually the only) who wrote me at Whatsapp, answering all of my questions.
Our flight from Cairo to Nairobi was delayed so, first, I change a day of safari without any extra fees and later, being late on arrival, was taken by driver straight to the group which had already left the town by the time of my arrival.
All this time Steve was there, on the phone, helping and supporting.
The safari was amazing, we saw 4/5 of the "big 5" (bad season for rhino). Our driver and guide, Max, is extremely professional. He's doing safari for the last 15 years so basically knows everything about everything. Every single question we asked was answered straight and fully.
The accomodations and the food aren't chic. Don't expect 5 star camp neither Micheline star restaurant, but the camp staff is absolutely charming.
Anyways it was extremely great and I enjoyed every single moment!
