I have been working with Megan O’Connor since 2019 to plan our 25th wedding anniversary trip that was originally set to take place in April, 2020 when the world shut down. Megan was very responsive and patient as we navigated when and how to reschedule our trip. We celebrated our 28th anniversary this May, and the trip was well worth the wait! Megan ensured that our connections between locations were seamless and easy. We were so impressed with all of the accommodations and staff members. She expertly planned the order of travel such that we appreciated that the first half of our trip was more on a set schedule of game watching while the last half allowed for a more leisurely pace. We started on the Chobe Princess houseboat and enjoyed delicious food, comfortable accommodations and excellent game watching. Megan arranged for transportation for us that included assistance in navigating quickly through Botswana and Zimbabwe customs to move to our next stop at the Hide in the Hwange National Forrest. We felt like VIPs at both places, as the delightful staffs anticipated our wants and needs and were so warm and friendly. We stayed in a “glamping”-type tent at the Hide and even stayed in a fancy tree house one night! The game watching and food were outstanding. We then moved to Victoria Falls, where Megan booked us at the iconic Victoria Falls Hotel that is walking distance from the falls. We enjoyed watching some warthogs playing in the sprinklers at the hotel! Our last stop was in Cape Town. Megan booked us at the very convenient and comfortable Commodore Hotel. We also enjoyed a fun winery tour that Megan set up for us. We are already thinking about when we might be able to go back, and we will definitely use Megan and Maplanga Africa to help us with our next journey there.
Megan O’Connor organised a wonderful trip to Victoria Falls for my mum and I. We had a great time – it was seamless from beginning to end. This was all down to Megan’s great advice and overall service. She was really patient while we decided on our trip and helped us with any questions that we had along the way. The holiday was amazing and I would highly recommend booking such a trip through Maplanga. – Sarah P

Lezel and Megan are so passionate and professional in what they do. This is by far the best experience with a travel agent I have had by far. I would recommend their service any day, and will definitely be using Maplanga Africa in future. Thank you Ladies!!! – Jimmy
