Sabi Sands and Kruger Safari

We had an amazing time at our safari place(Kapama Karula) organized by Susan from Discover Africa!
She is very professional and gave us unforgettable time in South Africa!
I highly recommend Susan and discover Africa!

All bookings were at luxurious and convenient places. The camp tents are beautifully decorated with a rustic look and feel. Food service were amazing for most part. The bush drives are as best as it could be given the rainy season etc. Punctuality has been an added attribute.

An outstanding safari trip made seamless and wonderful by Adelle at Discover Africa. From start to finish this trip was amazing, the flights were well organised our pickups and transfers were on time and comfortable. We stayed the first two nights at Jocks a private concession in Kruger and everything from the food, accomodation and our wildlife guide Patrick was out of this world.

We then transferred to Arathusa Lodge in Sabi Sands game reserve and while different experience again the accomodation, food and our tracker Adam and Guide Geoff were outstanding. Not a single complaint and felt Adelle did a wonderful job of making things easy for us when the enormous choice of accomodation options and places to stay can be overwhelming. We saw the big 5 and many other animals and I would recommend Discover Africa and Adelle to anyone I speak with!

Incredible value and superior expert advice and service by Discover Africa and our agent, Chrizaan. Our interests, budget, needs, style and circumstances were factored into the crafting of a super unique and exotic itinerary. We did a self drive in Namibia. We felt safe and supported every step of the way. The Accomodations Chrizaan picked for us exceeded our expectations.

It was a wise choice to travel Namibia at first and then finish it off at Sabi Sands Arathusa lodge for viewing the big 5 and many more animals. Namibia’s self drive itinerary was totally mind blowing! Gorgeous landscapes every step of the way. Serene and divine vistas. Already thinking about my next African trip, and will only do it with this company.

We had a great experience planning our holiday with Discover Africa, and especially with Diane. She set up an initial Zoom call to help understand our wishes for planning a memorable first time on safari. She was flexible and found ways to adjust the itinerary when I asked about changes (e.g., swapping out a portion of the holiday, adding a private tour, etc.). When we found ourselves ill during the trip, Diane was a lifesaver. We had to change a portion of our itinerary, and she did it all promptly, which was such a relief, allowing us to relax and get better before our safari portion of the trip started. It would have been such a pain if we had to manage ourselves. She even coordinated with the hotel to send a doctor to our room.

On a whole, all the hotel bookings were excellent – great locations, rooms, and breakfast options. Our transfers were always on time and made getting around so convenient. The safari was certainly the highlight, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We saw so many animals on game drives, and even from our room. The staff and service, including the food, was fantastic. I know we’ll want to have another safari experience in the future and will come back to booking with Discover Africa.

Visited 2 &Beyond camps – Ngala Safari Camp in the Kruger National Park and Kirkman’s Kamp in Sabi Sands. Both were excellent. At Ngala amazing siting of wild dog and hyena interaction, white lion of Timbavati, elephants (in the wild and drinking from the lodge pool), rhino, buffalo, hippos (only in water), leopard as well as impala, wildebeest, zebra, etc,

Game was far more extensive at Sabi Sands where in addition to the above we also saw a cheetah and her cub and witnessed a kill. The food at Kirkman’s Kamp was amazing. The staff at both lodges were excellent.

The entire tour was very well arranged by Susan at Discover Africa.
