Couldn't ask for a better experience!! <3
Great experience to have in Kenia, got to see the big five, 4 of them in one day at Masai Mara. Jimmy, our guide was always helpful and ready to give us tips and info at any time. Having a good guide is always a must and Jimmy won't let you down . Couldn't ask for a better experience for my first safari a the beautiful Kenya.

The operator went out of their way to ensure we were happy clients.
I'm grateful to have had the experience of visiting Rwanda and Uganda. My husband and I live in NZ while our friends we travelled with were from New York. Our view is that a safari should last for about 3 hours. Then we should either return to a lodge and food, or, have a picnic that includes good food. Our friends from New York didn't care about food. They wanted the safari to last all day and go into the night. Some days the safaris lasted 7 hours. No food! No pee stops! I wasn't happy about this. Itn would have been tough to keep two entirely different couples happy. The guides were excellent. My husband and I were diagnosed with Covid and missed seeing the Chimpanzees in Rwanda. We tested again 24 hours later and were negative. Covid is another challenge. We were anxious about our fitness levels but a porter kindly hauled me along (for $20 US). Our hikes to see the gorillas and chimps in Uganda (after Rwanda) were short and manageable. The guides in both Rwanda and Uganda were very, very good people and would have done anything to ensure we had a memorable experience. I would have preferred a newer Toyota Land Cruiser and also morning and afternoon teas. Leaving a lodge at 6:30am, or earlier, and not returning until 1pm from a safari just doesn't fit with my blood sugar levels. I like to eat every 3 hours. There's more to life than searching for elusive lions and leopards. The lunches provided by the lodges were depressingly unpleasant. The evening meals were usually quite nice. Don't expect good quality wines. Sometimes I was offered 'box red dry or sweet, or box white dry or sweet. The lodge staff were magnificent. All the people we met were just delightful and no doubt marvelled at our petty little issues.
Wonderful Experience
We had a excellent experience with pooja travel plus the guide given by them Mr. Godfrey was a good, soft spoken and knowledgeable about the safari . We had gone to serengetti and ngorongo crater with him , he showed us every corner of this places and saw many animals . We enjoyed with him. Thanks pooja travel and tours to give us this guide.

amazing experience
We went on a three-day safari in the Masai Mara. We are actually in the reserve for a day or so, the first day is a 5 hour drive. And an hour and a half in the reserve and the second day a full day in the reserve. On the third day we went to a Maasai village, an interesting experience but not mandatory and a bit too touristy, and from there we returned to Nairobi. The overall experience was good but we would have been happy for a little more time inside the reserve and to see more animals. We got the guide Jimmy who was just amazing! He knew how to answer every question we asked and took us to see all the animals we wanted on safari and took care of everything we needed during the days with him. Highly recommend asking him as a guide!

fantastic magical trip
We went for a gorilla/chimp/queen elizabeth park safari trip and it was fantastic holidays. Really well organized and rich in activities. Moses was more than a guide, he has been a good friend during the whole experience.
We just had to go with the flow and enjoy the beauty of uganda.
We came out full of beautiful memories from this safari. We definitely recommend Epic Uganda Vacation.

Very professional, friendly and hard working
We have just had an amazing time climbing Kilimanjaro with the company almighty Kilimanjaro. Our guides Dues and John were excellent they had a great knowledge of all aspects of the mountain there was no question they couldn’t answer. Despite Swahili being their first language they both spoke English fluently and were excellent at communicating with us as we were well informed to what was going on at all stages of the climb. The food was excellent at every meal we were served several courses of hot food which was delicious and water was made available to us at all stages of the climb. The team of guides, porters and chef were excellent they were very hard working and very friendly we were amazed at the service we were given on the mountain as it was excellent. The guides were great at helping us get acclimatised to the high altitude and in my opinion there is no chance we would have made it to the summit without them all in all we had an excellent trip would rate our experience a 10/10

Excellent Service
My family and I went on a vacation and Safari in December 2022. We visited Capetown and private game reserves around Johannesburg. I coordinated our trip with Discover Africa and our assigned consultant Susan S.
We really enjoyed our trip, which was very well coordinated and hassle free which was really important to me. Right from the itinerary, domestic flights check, rental car and sight seeing suggestions on what to do in Capetown.
Our consultant Susan S, was "first class", and she even checked in with up during our vacation on how things were going.
We had a slight hiccup in one of our in the hotel we were staying in Capetown, but the hotel made appropriate adjustments, and Discover Africa also followed up and made sure appropriate adjustments were made. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation!
If you are looking for a stress free and well coordinated and relaxing vacation, recommend Discover Africa. "Five Stars" for our consultant, Susan S who was wonderful and really a pleasure to work with. Thanks Susan!!!!!
