Affordable Chobe and Delta Explorer

After discovering a high number of camps in and around the Okavango, and at a price higher than we typically go for on a safari, we were very unsure on the route to go down for our honeymoon (especially whilst trying to planning our wedding!). So we reached out to Adelle at Discover Africa Safaris and she put the perfect itinerary together for us, which matched our budget, and the experience far exceeded our expectations!

Rhys and Grace's Botswana Experience

We had a fantastic time at Rra Dinare, Moremi Crossing and Nxai Pan camps. All of the camps are managed by Kwando Safaris who are also exceptional. We had great wildlife sightings at all 3 camps – it was very hard to choose which camp we preferred as they are all amazing in their own way, as are the guides and staff at all camps. Adelle had also arranged private dinners and champagne for us at 2 of the 3 camps, which was a lovely addition. Our highlight was the camping out in the bush evening under the stars listening to the hippos calling and lions roaring all night.

Magic tour, the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen in all my life, I really love this ancestral land: nature, wise animals, and humans with very big heart.

Since the beginning, agents and staff of Discover Africa already work in a professional way for me to plan the trip. Their quick responses to my questions help us a lot before departing from our place to the Africa continent.

When we were in our trip, we can feel that everything is well arranged. All the guides for safari drives and staffs in lodges are doing their excellent jobs for us and we think the trip is really unforgettable. We can see some ‘world-class’ attractions during the trip, many amazing wild animals in the safaris and then we can enjoy and relax in the lodges.

All these are beyond our expectations. Thank you very much.

The best holiday without any cares or worries. The whole package of information with our itinerary etc was beautifully presented and explained everything.

Very professional. The accommodation was perfect and the staff at Ilala Lodge, Sanctuary Stanley’s Camp and Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero Lodge were so welcoming and helpful. Special mention must be made of Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero Lodge. It must be the flagship Sanctuary Lodge in the world! The staff there were exceptional and saw to every detail and beyond. Towels shaped into swans or hearts etc. on the beds with bougainvillea flowers around them. They went the extra mile. The tour guides at both safari lodges were so knowledgeable and accommodating in trying to find wonderful places for sun-downers and morning teas and in finding lion etc.

We felt safe in their hands and it was great to be able to joke and laugh with them. Thank you to all who made our holiday a wonderful experience.

Right from the first query till the last day of reaching back home, Megan was so responsive which made my decision to opt for discover Africa an excellent choice.

The challenges and positives of each option was clearly outlined at each step which made our decision matrix easier. The lack of water in okovango was disappointing which could have been given as a disclaimer by discover Africa. Maybe it got lost in the chain of communique.

The three days in Oddballs camp and two nights at Kingdom in Victoria Falls were well managed. ODDBALLS is a basic tented camp but they make up for it with the hospitality. It’s not extravagant on food per se, but then the focus is on safari walks so that was fully met by our guides Congo and Alfred.

Our aim was to undertake numerous makoro rides in the reeds but lack of water all over Botswana did not see that happening. That basically reduced our reach into the Chiefs island. The 20 minute flight from Maun to the Camp and 1.5 hour flight from the Camp to Kasane was well managed without any hiccups whereas there were some other passengers who were left frustrated by some tour operators.

Kingdom hotel is a royal place to say but I should say that some of the facilities are worn down and gives a vintage look. The hotel could not accommodate our children in closeby rooms which again in my review gives them a minus. The Falls are just 5 minutes away and the sun downer cruise and Falls walk organized through Wild Horizons by Megan was outstanding.

Overall an excellent five day package well coordinated and orchestrated by Discover Africa with minimum hassles. Thank you
