A big thanks to Africa Uncovered for rescheduling our trip to South Africa from November 2020 to November 2021 due to the ongoing covid pandemic. We really appreciate all your assistance with this and for locking in our 2020 rates so we didn’t have to pay a cent more. We can’t wait until next year when we can finally get to enjoy our time out in South Africa.

A great safari to Botswana was arranged for us by Africa Uncovered. It was our first time to Botswana having travelled a number of times in Africa previously with Africa Uncovered. Botswana has though become our new favourite safari destination. We were excellently guided by the Africa Uncovered team and their choice of camps and regions was spot on! We can highly recommend the services of Africa Uncovered and will be arranging many more safaris with them in the future.

We appreciate the great feedback Marc. Thank you so much for taking the time for this. I told you Botswana was hard to beat and so glad that it is your new favourite place to safari. Botswana is pricey but the safari experience is unrivalled.

Tanzania Safari

Our family of 4 went on an 8 day Tanzania Safari plus 4 days in Zanzibar over Christmas 2019. Africa Uncovered made all of our arrangements. The camp recommendations and facilities were spectacular and the safari was well planned and executed. Stuart Parker did not book our air tickets but when the airline lost our luggage, he came to our rescue. He found our luggage in Nairobi and made arrangements to have it delivered to us in the middle of the Serengeti...best Christmas morning presents ever! That same airline also delayed our arrival and therefore caused missed connections that could have resulted in lost safari time but Stuart arranged for us to have a driver meet us in Nairobi and deliver us to our safari guide at the Tanzania border. We began our safari from that point. We cannot imagine how we would have managed without Stuart's help. As a result we went on to have the best family holiday ever. Stuart was very professional to work with and look forward to booking our next family adventure through them soon!

Thanks for the great feedback Mike and so glad we were able to help out and ensure you didn't miss any safari time after your international flight delay and assist in getting your luggage safely to camp. Its great to hear that you enjoyed your safari to Tanzania and beach time on Zanzibar. It was a real pleasure working with you in planning your safari and whilst you were out in Tanzania.

A M A Z I N G experiences

Our Honeymoon was A M A Z I N G. Everything was arranged perfectly by Africa Uncovered, the timings, hotels, activities. The hotels were incredible, each of them in its own style, but we loved them all. Leopard Hills as you suggested was awesome, the people were amazing and we had some incredible sightings as we got very lucky and an amazing ranger ;). Service overall was excellent from all the drivers and tour guides, everyone was so nice and eager to make the experience even better. All the places we visited were unique and we think it has a perfect balance from enjoying a bit of city life, adventure, nature and relaxing¡ We fell in love with Africa, especially Cape Town and we definitively want to go back sometime, maybe only not the Seychelles, although it was beautiful it was crazy expensive, hahaha we spent more in three days there than the rest of the whole trip. But it was perfect despite anything.

Im glad we found Africa Uncovered online, since i don't think we could ve gotten a better agency to plan such a special trip in such a perfect way. So we want to thank Africa Uncovered for all the work, emails coming and going, your excellent attention and quick response, your disposition to adjust the itinerary and make it what it ended up being... It was everything and more we had thought it would be, thanks so much for a once in a lifetime experience

Safari in Africa

We booked a safari to Africa in September 2019 with Africa Uncovered. The trip was AMAZING!!! We were met at the airport in Nairobi and the following day we flew to Amboseli National Park. We loved this park with its great views of Kilimanjaro and visiting a Masai village was a really interesting experience. We then flew to the Masai Mara and saw the great migration herds and the balloon ride was just sensational.
We then visited the Victoria Falls which I had always wanted to see and although the water levels were low due to the drought in Southern Africa the falls were still amazing to witness. After the Victoria Falls we visited the Okavango Delta and stayed at the stunning Jao Camp which was just sensational.
We then ended our stay in Africa with a few nights in Cape Town. Thank you soooo much Africa Uncovered and as I mentioned on the phone with Stuart when we returned home…Africa is now in our blood and we are definitely heading back soon!

Thank you for the great feedback Richard and we can't wait to start planning your next trip with you. As I mentioned to you when we last spoke, I highly recommend combining Botswana with Zimbabwe for your next safari. I know how much you enjoyed your time in the Okavango Delta and I am sure you will love Hwange and Mana Pools in Zim. Take care!

Honeymoon perfection

We just wanted to take the opportunity to thank the team at Africa Uncovered for making our dream come true. After doing quite a lot of research, a work colleague mentionned Africa Uncovered to me and let me tell you... they did not disappoint! We knew what we wanted for our Honeymoon in terms of experiences and standards but we did not know anything about Southern Africa since this was our first trip to Africa. My husband and I both have very demanding jobs and therefore it was an absolute pleasure to work with such an understanding, hard-working, passionate and, most importantly, knowledgeable team. Africa Uncovered planned absolutely everything for us so we could just relax and enjoy what I am sure will always be remembered as the best trip of our lifes. We had a 2 week luxury Honeymoon to South Africa, Zimbabwe and Mauritius. We absolutely loved the perfect balance of adventure, safari time, indulgence, discovery and beach time. We were immensly excited about the itinerary Christina had planned and prepared especially for us but once there, we realised that we were actually staying at the very best lodges and hotels in South Africa, at the Vic Falls and in Mauritius. Location could just not be beaten and so too the service. We were certainly not expecting such a prime safari experience and now we cannot wait to return to Kruger Park or wherever Christina reccommends us next! Hopefully travel bans will soon be over so we can start planning our next holiday to Southern Africa. Thank you Christina and the team at Africa Uncovered for planning our Honeymoon in January 2020!

Our amazing safari to Rwanda, Tanzania and Kenya

Our safari to East Africa was better than we could ever have imagined. The recommendations and guidance from Africa Uncovered from the beginning to the end of our trip were perfect. Seeing the mountain Gorillas in Volcanoes National Park in Rwanda was a life changing experience and our safari to Tanzania and Kenya that followed was incredible! We simply could not fault anything and would highly recommend Africa Uncovered and Cristina as their knowledge of Africa is immense, honest and reassuring!

Africa Uncovered thanks for organizing such an awesome safari last year to Botswana. Of all the safaris we have been on this was without question the finest. The safari camps staff, scenery and...oh my word... the wildlife were just awesome!

From arriving in Maun to stay at the 2 magnificent camps that you recommended in the Okavango Delta, followed by 3 nights in the Linyanti Wildlife Reserve and ending at the Victoria Falls everything was planned to perfection!

Safari review

Africa Uncovered arranged a truly sensational safari for us to Tanzania in July 2019. They listened to our requirements and selected the perfect locations and camps for us. We really appreciated the local expertise they have and their clear knowledge of this amazing country. The game viewing lived up to high expectations…Lion with cubs, Rhino, Elephant, Cheetah and a very special sighting of witnessing a leopard up a tree with her kill (for an hour with no other cars in sight)…truly amazing. We also saw the migration herds crossing the Mara river. We could not have asked for more and are in love with Tanzania…thank you so much Africa Uncovered we will be in touch soon!

Africa Uncovered organized our safari…

Africa Uncovered organized our safari last year July to Botswana and Zimbabawe. We have been to Africa many times and have been booking with Africa Uncovered since 2005. We truly love Africa and for me the Okavango Delta has a special place in my heart. Our safari was once again organized to perfection and we cant thank the team at Africa Uncovered enough. We will be in touch soon to organize for 2022.
