Knowledgeable, efficient, kind and responsive to questions.
5/5

I contacted a variety of agents via Google search. After a few days of posing my questions and requirements I found myself warming to Michelle at Explore & Travel Africa. She was knowledgeable, responded quickly, and in particular paid attention to my needs. I had set a budget which we quickly exceeded (for good reasons). This was a short notice booking to take advantage of unusual availability from the uk of airmile flights with BA to JNB, celebrating my upcoming 60th.
Michelle helped me find 2 lovely but contrasting safari properties that were available at a modest discount. I arranged our transport to Hoedspruit (BA then Airlink… excellent) and Michelle arranged the private transfers to Klasserie Drift and on to Arathusa and back to Hoedspruit. These transfers worked perfectly and I am so glad that I didn’t take the alternative option of renting a car. The roads are not driver friendly!
Klaserie Drift was simply stunning. The setting and staff/service set it apart. I could not think of any worthwhile improvements that could have been made. The food was exquisite, the setting just amazing and our river view room just stunning. The aircon struggled to cope with the nearly 40 degree temperatures but luckily the ceiling fan helped. Every member of staff went above and beyond and Khutso was an amazing guide/tracker. Although we saw an amazing variety of animals, in contrast to Arathusa they were perhaps harder to find. But every one of our 6 drives delivered and then some. Highlights included lion, hyena, vultures, rhino, elephant, water buffalo but no other cats. Loads of birds too.
Arathusa was also luxurious with a wonderful room. We had some amazing sightings and in particular close encounters with leopard, hyena and wild dogs. Plenty of lion. White rhinos in The distance at dusk. We seemed a little less lucky compared to the other cars out from Arathusa however. Our guide seemed to be a bit out on his own.
In summary I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Michelle at Explore and Travel Africa. Thank you! Hope to be back.

Michelle Ashley patiently tailormade a 8 fantastic days of Botswana safari of Delta, desert n river!
5/5

Michelle was able to understand our requirements n it met all our expectations of varied safari in different terrain n environment. Tour was well organized n Kwando Lodges were comfortable, had excellent staff, good meals, knowledgeable guides. Flying to different lodges saved a lot of time too. The cost was well worth every penny. Daily laundry service was an extra bonus!

Great, fast and easy

Such an easy process! I was contacted by Michelle Astbury so quickly and she’s been great since then. Michelle listened to all my requests and she delivered! Knowledgeable, experienced and awesome! We had a fantastic Safari, a one in a life time experience.
Thank you so much Michelle for your top notch service!

5/5

Michelle was instrumental in helping us to plan and make the most of our time on the safari. We had an excellent trip, some amazing experiences that will stay with us forever. Staying at the migration camp in Ndutu was one of the highlights.

Michelle took the time to listen to what we wanted and planned the right package for us.
5/5

We were able to see the Big Five many times. The service at the lodges that we stayed at was excellent and the value was exceptional. English was widely spoken.
