It was beyond perfection!
We spoke to Chrizaan who arranged everything for us according to our budget and wills.
Everything was so good we just had to worry about having a good time in our honeymoon safari.
Thank you Chrizaan and thanks to the whole team.
Excellent! Worked with me to put the exact packagr together we wanted, nothing was to much trouble
I contacted Chrizanne 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 Chrizanne 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 Mozamique. The Onwers 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 voew from you accommodation is breath taking.
The cuisine here it out of this world every day a different 5 course tasting menu.
Dream honeymoon
Adele planned the most perfect honeymoon for us. It was the perfect combination of once in a lifetime experience in the bush and relaxing and romantic at the beach!

Serious concerns about the company's integrity and professional conduct
I booked a Botswana safari through Discover Africa. Unfortunately, my experience with Discover Africa was very disappointing.
Before the safari, I clearly communicated my dietary restrictions, and Discover Africa confirmed that these had been conveyed to the operator. However, during the safari, the tour operator was unaware of my restrictions. As a result, I had difficulty finding suitable food and drinks during much of the safari.
There were also problems with airport reception in Maun and with the information I received about check-in luggage. I had been told by Discover Africa that someone from the operator would receive me at the airport upon arrival and assist me, but no one was there. I had to figure out the charter flight time and arrangements myself. In the end, I had to ask other operators at the airport for assistance. I was also given incorrect information about luggage, which resulted in me repacking unnecessarily before the flight.
Another important issue is the value for money. I paid the same price as the operator's public price on its website, so I expected the travel agent to add value through proper communication, coordination and support. Instead, I felt that my needs were not properly followed up or communicated to the operator.
After I raised these problems, my agent at Discover Africa did respond and reviewed the issues with the operator. However, I felt that the responses mainly explained how the problems had occurred rather than addressing my concerns. Some of the replies also felt very generic and impersonal.
Overall, my concern is that I did not feel there was sufficient added value or coordination from Discover Africa. I felt that the additional communication involved in booking through the agent contributed to problems that I had specifically tried to avoid by communicating my requirements in advance, while I paid the same public price as booking directly with the operator.
Most concerningly, after I posted a factual review of my experience on Safaribookings, this company reported to Safaribookings that I never booked with them to delete my review. I find this dishonest behaviour extremely concerning. I now have serious concerns about the company's integrity.
Based on my experience, I would not use Discover Africa again. The safari experience itself was amazing, as was Botswana and the Okavango Delta, but not Discover Africa.
Reply from Discover Africa Safaris
Posted on Oct 19, 2026Hi Shane,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely pleased that you enjoyed the safari itself, but we’re sorry that the coordination around parts of your journey did not leave you feeling the same way.
Your dietary requirements were communicated by our team to Letaka before you travelled, and we had confirmation that this information had been passed on. However, we recognise that this did not translate into the experience you expected once you were on safari.
From your perspective, you provided those requirements to Discover Africa and reasonably expected them to be reflected in what was available to you throughout the trip. Regardless of where that breakdown occurred operationally, we understand why this was frustrating and why it affected your confidence in the coordination behind your journey.
We also understand your frustration on arrival in Maun. Letaka’s usual arrangement is for Mack Air to assist their guests with the onward charter process, but you were expecting a more visible meet-and-assist service. That distinction should have been made clearer to you before arrival.
On the luggage requirements, we do want to clarify that the information provided to you before travel reflected Mack Air’s official conditions. We advised that soft-sided luggage should be used for the charter and that acceptance of a hard-shell case could not be guaranteed because of the aircraft’s limited storage space. The fact that your case was ultimately accepted on the day was at the airline’s discretion, so we do stand by the guidance that was provided.
You also raised a number of other concerns about the day-to-day operation of the mobile safari. We took these back to Letaka individually, asked them to account for what had happened, and responded to you based on the information they provided. While many of those elements sit within Letaka’s direct operation of the safari, we recognise that you booked the journey through us and therefore expected us to help make the experience feel connected from beginning to end.
That speaks to the bigger point behind your review. When you book through Discover Africa, our value should come through in the planning, advice, coordination, and support surrounding the safari, not simply in making the reservation itself. A considerable amount of support and communication took place before your trip, and your concerns were investigated afterwards. But we accept that those efforts were not as visible or reassuring when some arrangements on the ground did not unfold as expected.
We’re sorry that this left you questioning the value of booking through us. At the same time, we’re glad that Botswana itself and the safari experience left such a positive impression, and we appreciate you taking the time to give us detailed feedback on the areas where the experience could have been better.

Chrizaan was very helpful, very thorough and selected some terrific places for us
We wanted to spend a week in Kruger and Chrizaan put together a visit to two areas (Sabi Sands and Timbavati). She chose two lodges that met our budget requirements and both were very good (Nkorho Bush Lodge and Motswari Main Camp). All the transits between the airport and the lodges worked well.
All the communication with Chrizaan was very clear and timely. She happily adapted the plans for any changes we requested.
We would happily use Chrizaan again.
