Incredible Honeymoon!
My husband and I travelled to South Africa for our honeymoon this past August and we had an amazing time! Our trip was organized through Adventura Africa and our email correspondences were all done with Olivia Gradidge. Olivia was incredibly helpful in organizing our vacation. She was prompt in responding to emails and listened to our vision for our trip. We really felt that she wanted us to have a great experience in Africa and that we did!
The accommodations that were booked for us were beautiful and exactly what we were hoping for. We had an opportunity to see some of the South African countryside on our own during our self-drive, as well as go on several bush drives and walks with our guides.
We would highly recommend Adventura Africa to anyone looking to experience this amazing continent. A big thanks to Olivia for giving us the honeymoon of our dreams!

Our best birthday trip ever!
Our first time visiting Africa, we hope that it will not be the last! Olivia did a great job organizing our trip to make sure there were no snafus in traveling around Zambia and South Africa. Each of the four hotels/lodges we stayed at were beautiful with Phinda Mountain Lodge and Tongabezi being the most beautiful. We experienced things that I am not sure we will be able to top on this trip. Our Cape Town guide was awesome! He got me a discount at Shimanski on some jewelry and was able to give us the scoop on what's good in the city. Olivia and Rob are excellent and it was a pleasure being able to work with them!

An amazing combination of unique and varied experiences with an exquisite taste and hosting.
It was our first time in Africa. You go from the complete unknown to a world of fine dining and service, spectacular locations, superb accommodation and exquisite treat, all perfectly orchestred so that we experienced places, people, nature and adventure with a natural flow. Adventura got the right balance between all the ingredients that we wanted to experience tailoring a trip beyond our expectations. Most importantly, thorough the whole trip we were looked after and spoilt. A truly sensory trip that keep you with your eyes wide open Adventura makes you want to come back and travel in a style that makes them unique. A company trustworthy to make your dreams come true.

Awesome Family Safari with Adventura Africa
We experienced an awesome family safari combining the Sabi Sands Game Reserve, Victoria Falls and the Okavango Delta. The safari was really tailored around our needs, which is something that we really appreciated. Every little detail was perfectly arranged and we enjoyed the special sundowners arranged on the safari section (every day). We found Adventura Africa to be really professional and caring to our needs and responded promptly to any changes that we wanted they left us feeling like Kings. The guides were very knowledgeable and really caring about nature and the environment.

Lizette was very knowledgable, responsive and covered all the details well.
The safari experiences which Lizette recommended for us fit our purpose and expectations perfectly. Our emails were always responded to quickly, even after hours or on the weekend. The safari tours changed our lives in what we learned and the conversations we were able to have with locals... and definitely the game we were able to observe.
The only suggestion I would make is to ask the client ahead of time if they want to be met and chauffeured through the airports. This can very uncomfortable for some people due to cultural differences and understandings.

EXCELLENT!
Lizette, our tour operator was very helpful with quick responses, gracious with her off hours due to the time difference from my home in North America, very skilled in tailoring our needs to which camps to set up for our approval, and very kind! I LOVED every minute of my time in Hoedspruit, staying at Ugebezi Explorer Camp, having access to many of the anti-poaching and conservation efforts being practiced by so many people and organizations sharing in this grand effort. I loved the rustic and authentic feel with Ugebezi. I also LOVED staying at Tanda Tula with their eco/environmental focus as well. So beautiful and peaceful! The game drives at both camps were superb! Learning about and seeing the deep connection that is shared between the people and the animals in this region of the world is truly one of passion for LIFE! Meeting people who came to visit but never left, hearing stories about how they saved a rhino, knowing lions are hunting nearby because of their sounds, watching hyenas pass through camp, enjoying a bush walk with an experienced guide and learning about giraffe tracks and scorpions and the need to protect the trees from the elephants, observing a pack of endangered wild dogs being quarantined with plans to release them in a safer area, getting to know the incredible staff that work at both camps and hear their stories and try to learn words from their native languages, watching spectacular sunsets, and knowing that I will return, truly moved me! I am happy to refer Adventura Africa to anyone looking for safari tours! Supporting the eco/environmentally friendly focus was key to me. I’m grateful for this option! And I know others are too! This trip was a big spend for me, and I’m incredibly grateful to have been able to support this unforgettable experience! I can hardly wait to return and will definitely contact Adventure Africa when I’m able to consider the next trip! Thank you so very much for a deeply enriching memory!

Exactly the level of comfort and adventure that we were looking for.
I highly recommend planning your safari or African adventure with Adventura Africa. They really listened to what we wanted, made recommendations and asked questions where needed and then planned the perfect safari for us. Each lodge was exactly the level of comfort that we desired. Service was superb at every stop. Our tour guides were knowledgeable, flexible and experienced. We saw more wildlife than I ever imagined that we could! Along the way, our Adventura reps were available, if needed, checking that all was going well. Adventura Africa really takes the stress out of planning a trip to Africa so that we can enjoy the experience with "hakuna matata".

Beyond Expectations
Adventura Africa absolutely exceeded our expectation when they helped us plan our safari. The travel agents, especially Lizette, were thoughtful, professional, and very well-informed. It was a pleasure working with them. They clearly listened to our interests and priorities because their recommendations were spot-on! Both safaris lodges - Gomoti in Botswana and Dulini Leadwood lodge in Sabi Sand - were dreams come true. We saw so many animals - up close and personal! Amazing! The accommodations in both lodges were stunning. The food was fabulous. Best of all: the people we met - both lodges made us feel like family. This was the trip of all trips and I can’t recommend (and thank) Adventura Africa enough.
We can’t wait to plan our next trip!

Absolutely perfect
Words really can’t express how happy we were with Lizette at SafariBookings. I had emailed several travel agents when we decided to go on safari. She responded immediately with clear, concise information, so we quickly chose to work with her. She recommended Notten’s Bush Camp, which was perfect for us. She always responded to our emails in a timely fashion. She arranged everything, from the guide who met us at our flight into Johannesburg and to the connecting flight, to transportation to and from the lodge. She even helped with locating my husband’s lost bag and getting it delivered to the lodge. She is responsible for making this the trip of a lifetime. I recommend her very highly. Thank you, Lizette, for everything
