Our Safari Blog

I contacted Chrizaan after my tour operator in the UK went into liquidation 3 weeks before we were suppose to travel. Asking if you could help me to rebook the Camps, Hotels and As Dunas.
This Lady went above and beyond what you would consider helping nothing was to much trouble, even managing to book two camps in better locations for us.
I will be going back to Africa in either 27 or 28 and I will have no hesitation in contacting Chrizaan to organise my whole trip.

Thank you again.

The whole experience is unbelievable Botswana has to be visited as a destination. Moremi Crossing and Mma Dinare Camps were in different setting and offered a excellent trips out both by vehicle and boat.

Both Camps had excellent facilities, food excellent and the staff were welcoming and nothing was to much trouble.

Leaving the safaris behind we had 5 night at As Dunas Lodge in Mozambique. The Owners and Management made everything run smoothly, staff again could not help you enough.

The setting of the lodge overlooking the bay is stunning, every morning your view from you accommodation is breath taking.

The cuisine here it out of this world every day a different 5 course tasting menu.

Our trip to Kenya and Tanzania met and exceeded expectations! The Africa Safari Expert took our group’s information and my requests and created a trip that hit all the highlights of an African Safari. The itinerary took us through two countries and six regions – all with different views, animals and people. Accommodations were nicer than expected (even the temporary camp) and all were clean with extremely attentive and helpful personnel. All our guides were very knowledgeable, got us closer than expected to a wide range of animals and were responsive to our requests. For six days of the 12-day trip, we had two Discover Africa guides who were tremendous – they were nice, enthusiastic, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. It was obvious they were quite experienced, with books and maps to enhance their information.

Normally I love planning our trips but quickly realized it needed a professional since African travel is complicated by many factors. I picked Discover Africa because of a friend’s recommendation and their reviews. During the planning process, the Discover Africa representative provided an itinerary with detailed information (including pictures of the lodgings). Once the trip was booked, our representative made changes when our flights to/from were rebooked. As the trip got closer, they sent us comprehensive travel information (including pre-trip checklists). And there was an online link to our itinerary we used while on the trip!

I was especially impressed by all the vendors they used. All the guides, cars and planes were ready for us – no searching or waiting. All the lodgings were beautiful. And when there was an issue with a hotel (a water leak in one of the wings), another hotel had already been arranged (equally nice and down the street, and we got a free dinner too!).

Our entire experience was magnificent. Everything was in place and perfectly reliable. We wanted for nothing and were taken care of every step of the way. To use the word “life changing” seems so cliché, but my husband and I both found the whole trip an amazing experience. From the first day we felt like we were in good hands. Communications from the start of planning to our trip home were clear and precise.

I used Discover Africa services for organizing our South African safari. Justin was our organizer, he did an excellent job. He was very communicative, responsive and very helpful. He helped us all the way and kept in contact also during the Safari. I will definitely be in touch for my future plans.
