High Recommend Discover Africa!
Per our input, Chrizaan at Discover Africa arranged a terrific itinerary to Cape Town, Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park, and the Okavango Delta. All transfers, tours, and guides were waiting for us at each destination. Both my husband and I felt the trip was everything we had hoped for and would highly recommend their services. Thank you for a wonderful trip!

Adelle was incredibly helpful
Adelle was incredibly helpful from start to finish. Set us up with a great itinerary for our 8-day safari. We were able to see lots of animals and get a great cultural experience in Botswana between the 3 lodges that we stayed at. Highly recommend DiscoverAfrica if you don't want the headache of trying to plan it all. Let them do it for you. I am not sure the cost is really that different anyway.

Excellent service and support!
We were so happy and lucky to find Discover Africa! An agent, Susan Veldman, was amazing. Planning the trip, booking, and Q&A with great communications. Took great care with our flight cancellation and one-day delay arrival. Highly recommend this company and Susan!

THANK YOU Discover Africa!
We found that Discover Africa was the perfect agent to use for booking our Botswana trip. The itinerary, the advice and the correspondence from beginning to end were faultless. We had the holiday of a lifetime that exceeded our expectations. We would not hesitate to use their service again!

Botswana - MY HOME AWAY FROM HOME
I recently returned from my fourth trip to Botswana. Matthys van Aswegen has planned these trips so well for me that it is easy to prepare and go to this country where I now have many friends at the camps and specific animals in the wild that I now follow. Even when I have special requests, he always finds a way to fulfil them. Thank you, Matthys! I am so grateful to you for all the wonderful adventures and memories you have helped to create for me.

Great experience with Discover Africa!
We had a great experience with Discover Africa! Chrizaan was very helpful and found and organized the perfect location for us. We spent an amazing time and we highly recommend the MMA Dinare Lodge. From arrival to departure everything was perfect, the friendly staff, the food was some of the best we had eaten on this trip, the guides and the game-drives (even night drives and off-road) were excellent! We would book again with Discover Africa!

Reliable and helpful tour operator!
Discover Africa Safaris have helped us arrange and create a self-drive itinerary for us for Namibia. We were very happy with all the arrangement and had an absolutely great time in Namibia. It was very comforting knowing that you can always reach out to someone during our trip in case of questions (I had many) or emergencies. The accommodation recommended were great and even last minute changes were no issues. Thank you for Matthys (planner) and Sammy (counterpart during the trip) for the support. Can only recommend!

An outstanding safari trip made seamless
An outstanding safari trip made seamless and wonderful by Adelle at Discover Africa. From start to finish this trip was amazing, the flights were well organised our pickups and transfers were on time and comfortable. We stayed the first two nights at Jocks a private concession in Kruger and everything from the food, accomodation and our wildlife guide Patrick was out of this world. We then transferred to Arathusa Lodge in Sabi Sands game reserve and while different experience again the accomodation, food and our tracker Adam and Guide Geoff were outstanding. Not a single complaint and felt Adelle did a wonderful job of making things easy for us when the enormous choice of accomodation options and places to stay can be overwhelming. We saw the big 5 and many other animals and I would recommend Discover Africa and Adelle to anyone I speak with!

Premium price with ultra premium service
A premium price with ultra premium service. This was a honeymoon trip that surpassed our expectations. We worked closely with Diane Du Plessis (Africa Travel Expert). The trip was tailor made for our wants with added recommendations. It was an ABSOLUTE pleasure! Without spoiling too much, Sabi Sand Nature Reserve was THE BEST SAFARI experience when compared to other safaris. They do it right because their drivers are also trackers so they are not solely reliant on the ride along tracker. [global_dynamic_group section_type="gallery collage" id="gallery 1"]

A wonderful trip to South Africa
I just got back from a truly wonderful trip to South Africa, organised by DiscoverAfrica. We spent 4 nights in Cape Town, 3 in Franschhoek and 3 at Arathusa Lodge in Sabi Sands. The transfers organised between all these locations were faultless and very professional. The highlight had to be the safari lodge at the end. We saw all the Big 5—lots of leopards, including 2 cubs, lions (and a cub), a baby hippo, baby elephants, a baby giraffe, hyenas, white rhinos, and many others. The rangers and trackers are superb; we hadn't seen a buffalo until the last 10 minutes of our last game drive. I still can't fathom how our tracker saw the buffalo through all the bush! I can't recommend Discover Africa enough; they were always prompt in responding to queries and changes, which we had to sort out, and it was all done with no issues.

Best tailor-made trip!
I stumbled upon Discover Africa and contacted them, as they had an itinerary that interested me. (Rail + safari) Devryn got back to me right away, asked pertinent questions and tailor-made a perfect trip. It was amazing. Everything that I asked for, he delivered. All the pictures were accurate. We experienced first-rate accommodations, transportation and communication. All our questions were answered. I have been raving and recommending Devryn and Discover Africa to everybody!
