Very helpful, great reccomendations and great customer service.
Communications with Compass Odyssey was great and very quick response times. The entire booking of hotels, transportation and transfers was seamless and easy. All of the accommodations and activities were of great quality. We highly recommend them and we look forward to using their services for our next African adventure.

My Third Excellent Safari Experience
I have now worked with Journeys Discovering Africa three years in a row for my safari trips to Uganda and Rwanda to see Gorillas, Chimpanzees, and Golden Monkeys. Each experience was excellent, and the communication and attention I received from Journeys Discovering Africa exceeded my expectations each time. They were easy to work with, friendly, professional, and got all of the details right. The integrated my preferences to the itinerary while using their own experience in the field to design a trip of my dreams.... three times!!!

The experience was amazing! Everything was taken care of!
We wanted to plan a family safari and contacted a few companies... Lillian from Lians travel was the first to reply. All my queries were replied to asap and she made us an itinerary that suited our requirements perfectly! Our tour guide Humphrey was also great! He was always on time and very knowledgeable! Would definitely recommend lians travel!

Affordable, one of a kind African safari.
Hyrax Safaris met all my expectations of a nice Kenyan Safari. I really enjoyed my four-days three nights stay at the Maasai Mara. There was good communication from the tour operator on departure time and punctuality was highly observed. The driver was friendly and gave us a game drive of a lifetime. Bookings were promptly done and i got to experience a wonderful stay at the Mara Serena hotel. My favorite was the hot air balloon experience which was organised very quickly despite it not being part of my plan. I also enjoyed the Nairobi tour to some of the parks in Nairobi city. Hyrax Safaris will always be my number one choice for a lovely affordable Kenyan tour.

Considerate, careful and wonderful travel
I contacted 40 travel agencies to make quotes and plans for our trip. Naomi responded to me very fastest, She helped me plan the trips and hotels ,She arranged for us plan were very beautiful and affordable. We are going to Africa for the first time So we have many questions. Naomi is very attentive and responds to all our questions in a timely manner via email.Our English is not good, she will try our best to let us know. She arranged the itinerary for Kenya and Tanzania. The driver guide Peter can always meet our requirements. The animals and the scenery are very good, and take good care of us. During the trip to Tanzania, we had some problems with another driver. Naomi Was very quick to help us solve it. We are very grateful. If we come to Africa again, we will choose Heritage of African Jungles again.

I teared up when thanking our guides because it was such a magical experience.
From the day we were set up with Mohamed to start planning our safari we felt very happy to have chosen MegaAdventures. The planning was very easy and the communication with Mohamed was quick and to the point. We set up a safari for two and asked to be paired with 2-4 more people. The day before our safari we learned of our 2 companions on the trip which significantly cut the cost (which we had hoped for). The safari was amazing and we constantly kept talking about how we had the best guides, the best vehicles and the best cook. Our guide Ally was so professional, knowledgable and kind. He was a great driver which was important on those bad roads and he shared so many stories and interesting thoughts in addition to the many facts. We had amazing food and felt so taken care of. Camping in the Serengeti was a special opportunity and seeing the sunset with a hot cup of coffee was magical. Thanks for everything Mega!

Excellent and thoughtful service
We had the pleasure of Visiting Rwanda and Uganda this past Aug (2018). Journeys Discovering Africa helped us to tailor our trip to exactly what we desired to do. Our trip consisted of 4 four hotels, 4 major activities, 2 countries (Rwanda & Uganda), 2 regional flights, and 2 guides (one in each country). Our admin contact did a great job to inform us of what to expect at every step, sent us briefings of how to prepare and followed up with us (by phone) after each activity. At every stage of the trip we felt well looked after and very comfortable.

Maasai Mara Trip report with World Escapes
We stayed at the Olare Orok Conservancy, in Maasai Mara. The Maasai Mara one of the world’s last sanctuaries for wildlife. This is a big cat country which accounts for a lot of its popularity and overcrowding problems. However, as we discovered, apart from the migration summer period when overcrowding in the parks is a problem, the reserve is remains exceptional. The advantage of the adjoining private conservancies never have an overcrowding problem. Some actually enjoy permanent game including lots of big cats. The Olare Orak Conservancy is also very scenic with riverine woodland and has the Olare Orok and Ntiakitiak rivers, the Ntiakitiak Gorge and associated escarpment and acacia woodland. Mara North Conservancy lies above the Musiara marsh area of the main park, has the Mara river flowing through it and is surrounded by open acacia plains and riverine woodlands. Lots of wildlife but also high number of cattle in certain areas. We spent four nights and thank Ruth of World Escapes for organizing this safari.
