Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs C - Northamptonshire

My Jan 2012 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia & Zimbabwe between 1-Jan-2012 and 12-Jan-2012 and I travelled with 1 other person.

Also helped by Gwnneth, as well as Angela, who was equally helpful. Everything worked out well. We had a fantastic holiday & won't hesitate to recommend Expert Africa.

It seemed expensive when we booked it, but worth it when you consider the benefits of an individual trip & how well looked after you are.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Currency - can't remember if you advised it or I read it somewhere but took all my Rand/Namibian $'s in 100 notes, fellow travellers sometimes had difficulty using 200 notes. Likewise in Vic Falls, cash machines empty, hotel credit card machine not working. fortunately being prepaid didn't affect us, but no one could give change for ea $10 note if you bought a coke, so essential you take lots of small notes.

Thank you all for a memorable trip.
