Kruger, Timbavati and the Panorama Route

Justin planned the best safari for our honeymoon. Everything was coordinated smoothly and the arrangements could not have been better. We are hoping to take another trip to South Africa in the future and will be using Discover Africa again. Justin was available for any questions we had during our safari and checked in to ensure we were good. A fantastic experience!!

I chose a travel agency for four reasons. Years in business, quantity and quality of reviews, customisability, and local expertise. Discover Africa and my agent, Adelle, met or exceeded all expectations. I gave Adelle my budget and modified one of their suggested tours. Five stars.

My wife and I wanted to visit South Africa and knew it had plenty of different hot spots to visit, however, we weren’t sure what locations to choose or what hotel accommodations to stay at. After reaching out to Diane at Safari Bookings, she set up a phone call with us and asked us everything we’d like to do while in the country. A few days later, she had set up the perfect itinerary for what we were looking for.

It included everything from in-country flights to hotel reservations, as well as scheduled transportation.

We just returned from our trip and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything went. Everything that Diane set up for us was spot on for what we were looking at. Could not recommend enough!

From the very beginning, it was so easy and convenient to get in touch with Discover Africa, and specifically Antoinette Van Heerden.

Antoinette was extremely responsive and amenable to all our emails and requests for accommodations, diets, and preferences for our 10 day honeymoon in Cape Town, Kruger National Park, and Livingstone/Victoria Falls.

The accommodations that Discover Africa partners with and where we stayed were simply out of this world. As an example, our Cape Town hotel sat at the foot of Table Mountain with a dramatic view! The food was also stellar. All our transfers from airports to hotel and internal flights were completely seamless and set up completely by Discover Africa. All of this was at a very reasonable price. Discover Africa / Antoinette even provided us a helpful mini-booklet that provided us with suggestions on dealing with the weather, clothes, bugs, tipping, covid guidelines, etc. My wife and I felt so prepared for our full trip including safari and other tours.

We had a magical honeymoon that we will never forget, thanks to the dedication of Discover Africa and Antoinette.

We, six seniors, took a 14 day sightseeing tour to Cape Tour and Johannesburg, safari trip to Kruger park and Chobe in Botswana as well as tour to Victoria Fall in Zimbabwe in Oct, 2019 organized by Discovery Africa.

Both, Megan Warrington and Alice Lombard, our travel consultants, planned a well though out detail itinerary covering all aspect of our tour with care and understanding our requirements. They were very professional in their response (both over the phone or via email) as well as were every willing and prompt in dealing with our concerns/requests.

The tour exceeded our expectation and had a wonderful experience both for sightseeing part as well as the Safari trip. The subcontractors for transportation, sight seeing tours as well as the safari expedition provided an excellent service and found to be very knowledgeable. The Safari experience was much beyond our expectation were able to see all five big games at a close distance.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and will not hesitate to refer anyone to Discovery Africa as a tour planner and South Africa as a prefer destination for Safari experience.

Service: The planning services provided by Discover Africa were top notch. They were very responsive to our communication and very friendly.

We encountered an issue where one of the places we wanted to stay booked up at the last minute, but Discover Africa handled it very professionally (alerting us to the change, providing multiple alternative options, trying their best to secure us a good rate given the trouble).

They checked in with us before the trip to make sure we had what we needed and checked in after the trip as well. Great travel company! Experience: we spent two nights in Kruger National Park at Hamilton’s tented lodge. The setting and amenities were everything you could have asked for, including onsite wildlife, friendly staff, beautiful rooms, good food, stops for coffee and cocktails during game drives, afternoon massages, etc.

Highly recommend both Kruger and Hamilton’s.
