Working with them was so easy, and we felt taken care of every step of the way. They covered all of the details (many of which we never would have thought of) and made the planning process seamless. We can't wait to plan our next trip to Africa with them!

Everything was custom built with our wishes and expectations in mind and it was absolutely perfect! We have traveled a lot and to many different countries but this trip was a life changer as I feel like I left a little of my heart in Africa. I am a big animal lover and I find myself still reflecting on the animals, the people and situations I witnessed during those 2 weeks and it truly makes me appreciate life in a different manner. Would definitely return to Africa as I feel like we only touched the surface of what Africa has to offer ❤️

The accommodations, guides, itinerary, cuisine, game drives and variety of outdoor adventures exceeded our expectations. The variety of camps and options provided our family with unique and lasting memories. They were on top of all communication and prompt to respond. We planned this trip around a family wedding and they were flexible with our schedules. Our travel guides, meet and greet options were flawless. We'd highly recommend Africa Awaits and were thrilled to support a local business. Thank you for the incredible journey!”

You planned such a wonderful trip for us. It made taking on such a long adventure manageable and you did a beautiful job advising us and arranging everything. We will pass the word to family and friends as they begin to think of an African adventure.

First, in partnering with experts like you to curate and meticulously plan our epic adventures and secondly in adding more trips to Africa. Matt and I have never experienced travel in this manner. I felt incredibly grateful to have happened upon Africa Awaits on a random weekend excursion to Cashiers, NC. You made every aspect of it easy. What seemed daunting and out of our reach became possible with every conversation. Your expertise, intimate knowledge of Africa and genuine desire to exceed our expectations, made this a no brainer. The experience is imprinted on our hearts!

Asilia camps were incredible. Food was superb and staffs were so welcoming. Thanks again for putting this together.

Laura and Alastair developed an itinerary that perfectly matched our wants and the quality of every experience we had was excellent. We all really appreciated the communication we received for the many months prior to the trip refining the plan. We made a great decision trusting Africa Awaits for this once in a lifetime trip!

Everything was very easy to understand and was perfectly organized. Every aspect of our travels had wonderful and unique qualities. Making it to the top of Table Mt., the penguins, wine tastings, safaris, fishing. All highlights. You guys nailed it.

I had high expectations for our safari and the Africa Awaits team completely blew our expectations away. From the planning process (we did nothing...) to leveraging promotions to get us the best value (the team really came through!) nothing could have been easier. The itinerary we developed made us feel like we became experienced African travelers, tasting the best of the continent in a relatively short trip. If you're thinking about crossing Africa off your bucket list, don't think any further, go with Africa Awaits now!!
