With Discover Africa I had the most wonderful experience of my life
My trip last August to Botswana was arranged by Discover Africa and I couldn't have chosen better. Everything was well organized and I didn't have to worry about anything. The safari tour was far beyong expectations; the accommodation was superb, the guides were fantastic, the sightseeing and the animals were out of this world. I can't wait to go back, hopefully the next time I will travel with my family so they can also experience a rich adventure of unlimited emotions and definitely it will be arranged by Discover Africa. A million thanks to Discover Africa for making my dreams come true.

An amazing musical journey!
I did an 11 Day musical urban and bush safari where I got to explore ancient and modern music of Tanzania. As a student of world music, I was so excited to find this tour. While visiting this special part of Africa, I had the rare chance to meet local reggae and hip-hop muscians in Arusha and Dar while also going deep into the bush and seeing elders playing a unique assortment of hand-made instruments. I explained the scope of my interests and my guides gave a lot of thought to my itinerary and really helped convey the unique and varied musical influences of Tanzania.

Lots of animals to see, but may take time to find.
Hluhluwe-iMfolozi is huge! There are lots of animals, but if you are driving yourself through (as we did), they may be hard to find (probably depends a bit on the season). We had a couple stretches of maybe 45 minutes where we didn't see anything. We spent about 5-6 hours there and probably only covered 60-70% of the park. The roads are fine, though there are lots of potholes on the tarred roads. The dirt roads we did drive were borderline too much for our small car, but manageable. We had a nice time, enjoyed seeing all the animals we did find and got some good pictures. There are plenty of facilities available throughout the park, so it made for an easy place to spend the day. Several picnic areas are available as well. I think that if we go back, we'd try to go at a different time of year, because all of the watering holes were dry and I suspect many animals were sticking close to certain areas with water that we didn't find.

Review about Bwindi Impenetrable National Park by Rod Waddington
A big highlight to be amongst the Mountain Gorillas, hard walking at times (steep, slippery) but then to see the amazing Gorillas up close made all the uphill work worth every step.

It was well organised with spectacular scenery, especially approaching Murchison Falls.
The boat ride to the falls skirts the river edge where an abundance of birds, crocs, hippos, lizards, buffalo and warthogs inhabit the shore. As we approached the Falls the experienced boat captain moved the craft into different positions for better photos. We opted to leave the boat here and trekked the last few kilometres to the top of the falls. This is a must if you are reasonably fit because it provides the best views of Murchison Falls. At the top of the falls we were met by our fantastic driver who then drove us back to our camp. An exhilarating day with out a doubt and highly recommended.

Beautiful landscape of stunning variety.
Arusha National Park has an incredible diversity of landscape for its small size, ranging from savannah, to soda lakes, forests with craters, and the slope of Mount Meru itself.
This was one of the best, most challenging, and breathtaking trips I have ever taken part in
The Namib Desert ride was the toughest yet most magnificent trip I have ever had the pleasure of taking part in. Namibia is truly stunning; its wildlife, the ever changing landscape. The trip was so well organised and the horses amazing, with stamina to burn. That feeling of galloping across a desert plane, with zebra and Oryx running alongside; not seeing another soul for eight days aside from my fellow riders and the Safari team. Coming back to the UK was hard. I can't wait to find a way to do this again! :o)

Fantastic Week
I did a 5 day tour of Tanzanias famous paeloarcheological sites with game drive and cultural tours within the Northern Safari Circuit. I was shoked by the amount of information I was presented about the evolution of hominins in East Africa to the later migrations accounting for the local tribal entities of Tanzania. I was very pleased with my experience.
