Amazing and wonderful experience. I would not mind doing it all over again. LOVED IT!!!
Touring various parts of Namibia has always been part of my bucket list and finally l managed to do it. l had an unforgettable experience with my hubby thanks to the organized tour by Discovery Transfer and Tours. The lodges we stayed in during this tour met our expectations and the service and hospitality left both my husband and l awed. The tour guide was also good and very informed as he answered all questions and even went an extra mile to provide us with information we did not know about the country, wildlife and the various cultures in Namibia. Despite the gravel roads that resulted to us spending more time in the car because one can not drive fast(which of course was for own own safety) am happy to say the company we had made it worth every minute in the car.

Giltedge Africa went above and beyond creating our trip of a lifetime.
From the moment of contact with this company they did everything to ensure all our desires were met. They are very accommodating. They tweeked every little thing to make our wishes come true. We only started planning this vacation 1 1/2 months prior to our departure date. Never in a million years did We think we would get to do everything on our wish list in such short notice. Due to the hard work and perseverance of Tanya Drummer, all our wishes came true.
Everything went as planned with the detailed itinerary book they provided us. When we arrived in Johannesburg there was someone waiting for us with our names on a sign to guide us through customs. This happened for every flight, every road transfer and every lodge. We were never waiting or wondering what we needed to do. This service was impeccable. We are now spoiled!
The safari lodges and tours were beyond our imagination. All our accommodations were 5 star and exceeded our expectations. We stayed at Sabi Earth Lodge in Sabi Sands private reserve, Victoria Falls Island Lodge, The Chobe Princess House Boat, and Belmond Eagle Lodge in Botswana.
My husband wanted the “wow” factor, and WOW did we ever get it!
We were worried that nothing would compare to Sabi Earth Lodge, but every where we stayed at had its own WOW factor. The beauty of the lodges they recommended were 5 star, but a different feel to each one. The lodges could not be compared to each other, because they were unique in their own way. We loved them all.
All in all, I would recommend this agency to all our friends, clients and future travelers we meet. We travel extensively and this is by far the best agency we have ever used.
Thank you Tanya, you have now spoiled us! How in the world do we ever top this vacation that you planned for us? We will definitely contact you for our next African adventure! BTW, I left a piece of my heart in Africa!

A great, well-organized experience. Highly recommended!
Great communication, a small misunderstanding with a driver was quickly and painlessly fixed in a few minutes. Great lodging places with very attentive and nice staff, good food etc. And last but not least, first class safari guides who really excelled both in making us feel well, at ease and comfortable, in their David Attenburough-class knowledge about animal behaviour, the Rift Valley and the Masai people, which they shared in just the right amounts, and their general driving skills and skills for finding good spots for experiencing the magic of Masai Mara wildlife. Thank you for a fantastic experience and lifetime memories!

Top notch
We visited South Africa and Zambia with day trips to Zimbabwe and Botswana last month. Our travel plans were arranged perfectly to suit what we all wanted to do and more. The itinerary was very thorough and beautifully made. Kerry our agent was very quick to respond to all our needs. We did not encounter any problems at all. Overall we were very happy and impressed with their service.

Great tour, wonderful staff!
My wife and I did a two week tour with Tekko Tours and we can’t recomment them highly enough. Communication from the beginning was quick and easy, even though it was a somewhat last-minute plan. Our guide/driver was a pleasure to travel with and was very knowledgeable. In the middle of our tour, we had an emergency (not associated with the tour) and I am so glad we had such great people helping us because it made a horrible situation as easy as possible. Everyone working with us was absolutely amazing and I think that, under the circumstances, the tour could not have been better.

Is this real life?
A friend recommended me this company, after she had a very good experience with them doing a few safaris. I choose to hike the Kilimanjaro.
I texted Burton and from then on I was treated like a king, the communication was very good from beginning to the end. I met my guide Hassan and felt immediately comfortable, also the porters were friendly and obliging.
The best part by far was the food!
I was blown away by the variety, from popcorn to main course to all kinds of soup not even my grandmother could have cooked better. It was truly an amazing experience, I didn’t expect this kind of service.
Keep up the good work!

Awesome and very friendly.
Phabian took care of everything, even though we unfortunately arrived 2 days later than the confirmed date of our safari tour. The driver was very good observer and very educated about wildlife and history (archeologic findings,...). Our cook prepared us food I never imagined I would be eating while on safari. Hotel before and after safari was clean and very nice.
I would like to stress that 10 USD for a person/day tip for the cook and driver is very welcome if you are happy with the service. Especially if you book with a company that offers budget options.

Fun in the desert
I had an amazing time on the three day Sossusvlei safari. Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable, giving us lots of interesting information throughout the trip. Everything was well organized and we even got woken up before dawn to make sure we were on time to catch the sunrise from the top of dune 45. Had a great day exploring the National Park and taking thousands of photos. The food provided was delicious and more than enough for everyone. Our guide was really considerate of me being a vegetarian. Our group was quite small which was nice and we had fun chatting around the campfire in the evenings. Think the trip is great value for money too! Have already recommended Wild Cherry to friends visiting Namibia.
