Migration River Crossings Safari with Governors’ Camps

We just returned from an African safari in Kenya and Tanzania as well as gorilla trekking in Rwanda. Susan planned our 17 day to perfection. It was seamless to travel between countries, between lodges as well as negotiate airport arrivals and departures. The choice of itinerary and the amount of time in each location was perfect, as well as the choice of accommodations. We thoroughly enjoyed our safari and we met wonderful people as well as friendly, knowledgeable and informative guides. It was just the perfect trip. Words are not sufficient to express how pleased we were with Susan of Discover Africa. We would definitely use them again and we would not hesitate in recommending them.

Great communication and support both to plan the trip, providing pre-travel information, as well as excellent communication if needed while on travel. I highly recommend Discover Africa for Safari and tour planning. All the tour planners who have been wonderful and easy to reach.

Cheryl's Masai Mara Adventure

Susan helped us organize a trip to Rwanda for Gorilla trekking and safari in Maasai Mara. She was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and attentive to every detail from start to finish. From the moment we landed in Africa, it never felt like we had to worry about a single thing. Everything was arranged and thought through. Susan was always available for any questions that we had before and during the trip. We had a magical, worry free vacation and I can’t recommend her enough for anyone planning their African vacation. I cannot wait to start planning my next trip already!

I found my experience with Discover Africa Safaris to be a very pleasant one. I took a 5 night Maasai Mara safari in Kenya. Communication was first class from the get go, my questions were answered quickly and precisely, with lots of information available. Pick up from my Nairobi hotel to my destination in the Maasai Mara and return went perfectly.

The tour itself was superb with the Great Migration just commencing and animals everywhere!! It was a once in a lifetime safari! Would thoroughly recommend to every traveler.

Geoff's Masai Mara 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!

In planning for a trip one year out, I ‘interviewed’ US, European, and African travel companies.

Matthys of Discover Africa listened to what I wanted to accomplish for the group of 10, was willing to make changes and make better suggestions than the ones I had, and did so at a price point that could not be beat. That was all pre-departure.

Once the trip started, Matthys’ knowledge of his country and his understanding of our group and my desires as a group leader, showed up in the stunning lodgings he selected (locations, services, and amenities), the activities he had planned and suggested, and his partnership with Ilios as a guide and transport service in many of the places we visited.

I was the only one of the 10 who had been to Africa and because of the professionalism, creativity, and individual attention that Matthys gave to us, the others are all ready to return with friends and families – and to use the excellent services of Discover Africa. Many thanks, Matthys and team!
