Oltyiani Trail – Camping with the Maasai

For our honeymoon, my wife and I decided we wanted to plan the dream African safari trip we’d always hoped to take at some point in our lives. Discover Africa Safaris (and, specifically, Megan!) absolutely exceeded our expectations in every regard, and we are SO grateful to have found them when we were doing our research to plan our trip.

When planning our trip, my wife and I weren’t quite sure where we wanted to go, what time of year, and specifically what experiences we wanted to prioritize while we were on our trip. Megan was incredibly knowledgeable — she listened to our ideas and the things that were (and weren’t!) important to us, and compiled everything together into an awesome itinerary. She was friendly, knowledgeable, quick to respond via email, offered great ideas for revising our itinerary to meet any follow-up needs/requests, and overall did a fantastic job.

Having returned from our trip, I can confidently say that the trip lived up to even our highest expectations.

All of our guides/outfitters were extremely knowledgable and were great with the logistics/planning to help make sure we were always where we needed to be (and enjoying ourselves) every part of our trip. We had the spectacular wildlife sightings and encounters we’d always dreamed of. And, we felt safe, and well taken care of the entire time. At several times during our trip, we found ourselves saying “…this trip is incredible…Megan crushed it!”

We highly recommend Discover Africa Safaris, and had a fantastic experience working with Megan to make the trip happen. Thank you!!

Susan came up with a great itinerary for our two week long safari in Tanzania and Kenya. The luxury accommodations suggested and selected by her were top-notch. We had a wonderful, immersive experience on our safari. Would highly recommend Susan for any safari planning and intend to use her in the future.

Ravi's Tanzania Safari Experience

Discover Africa organized an amazing 11-day trip for us to Masai Mara, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Southern Serengeti/Ndutu. It was our first trip to Africa, and thanks to the wonderful experience, we are definitely coming back for more. Our tour planner was Vihann.

After an initial consultation to understand our interests, Vihann put together a few options for us to pick from. Throughout the process, he was very flexible and adjusted the tour a few times to meet our specific needs. Of all the tour operators we spoke to, Discover Africa was the only one that was able to get us the tour we wanted while still staying within our budget.

They did a great job at minimizing travel time between the various lodges we stayed in – this was something other tour operators failed to do to this extent. We stayed at Kichwa Tembo in Masai Mara, Serena lodge in Ngorongoro, and at Lemala Ndutu Mobile camp in Serengeti. Highly highly recommend all of these places, especially Kichwa Tembo and Lemala if you want the authentic safari lodge experience.

We were blown away by the hospitality throughout the trip. Our tour guides were patient, and knowledgeable and planned each safari carefully. We got a private vehicle and tour guide for 6/9 days we were on Safari in Tanzania. Our guide, Ebenezer (Ben), played a big role in making our trip memorable – highly recommend asking for Ben to be your tour guide.

Our safari vehicles were great as well – rugged, reliable, well-equipped (refrigerator, chargers etc.), and spacious! Overall, highly highly recommend Discover Africa for your Africa travel plans!

We and a friend ( Three adults) spent 11 days in Kenya and Tanzania for the Great Migration trip. We create our own itinerary and tailored details by Matthys who works for Discover Africa.com

We had an amazing experience – the best itinerary (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Serengeti N, and Tarangire NP) and accommodation on this trip. We had many incredible animal sightings.

We saw the Big 5, Migration watching, and loads more! Tim and Comfort were excellent, experienced guides in Kenya and Tanzania both country, and Comfort was very helpful, knowledgeable, and efficient

Joining a safari for one proved to be challenging in 2020. Once I was contacted by Adelle at Discover Africa, she found me safaris I didn’t even know existed from internet searching.

I couldn’t have done it without her! It’s definitely better to have someone on the ground in Africa helping you. I will certainly use them in future Africa travels. The experience once I made it to Tanzania was seamless, and I had local contact numbers in case I needed them. The quality of safari booked was also excellent.

Truly a trip of a lifetime. Adelle at Discover Africa also followed up with me after the safari. They really want to make sure you’re satisfied. Excellent!!!

The safari tour was exceptional. The properties, guides and service were top-notch. Our expectations were very high and this trip far exceeded them. Communication was very good. Everything expected happened, plus more. Matthys worked very hard to help with everything that we needed.
