Great First-Time in Africa
4/5

My husband and I wanted a safari trip with a visit to Victoria Falls as an add-on. Kobus at Jewel of Africa helped us planned a ten day trip that included staying 4 different lodges in South Africa and Zimbabwe. This offered us a diverse range of experience. The accommodations and game drives were all very good. We had an amazing time in Africa and saw all of the Big 5 thanks to Jewel of Africa.

I am giving them a 4-star because I think communication could have been handled better.

1) Email communication at times was delayed and many follow up emails were required.
2) Our package included a lion walk and a hippo feeding, when we got to both places, both tried to collect money from us because they claimed they hadn't received prepayment for our visits. Even though the payment issue was resolved eventually, it was still very awkward for us to be a part of.
3) Our return flight was supposed to depart from Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. When the final airline ticket was issued, it had changed to depart from Livingstone in Zambia. We were not advised of this change beforehand. This was not only inconvenient, it also made it so that we had to pay extra Visa fee to enter Zambia.

All in all, Jewel of Africa delivered on the itinerary they planned for us. The lodges they chose and the activities they included were really good. I obtained quotes from 8-10 different companies before deciding on Jewel of Africa. This is a legitimate business that offers good value for your budget.

Unforgettable
4/5

We had such an amazing time in our travel.
I remember spending time in the Kruger park and we got to see so many great animals. Specially the big five and a leopard we spotted early in the morning.

I'm so happy I got this opportunity and having tour guides showing and telling us everything we waned to see. They make your travel experience unforgettable.

It was fun and I felt that I could relax because things were taken care of.
4/5

It was a very nice experience with only good surprises. The place was beautiful and the guide was very good, fun, and knew a lot. I would do it again and recommend it to others.
