Travel reviews by Mr J & Miss P - London
Okavango 2011
On this trip, I visited Botswana between 21-Apr-2011 and 27-Apr-2011 and I travelled with 1 other person.
Had a fantastic time! It was one of the best holidays we've been on.
This was made even better by how helpful everyone at Expert Africa was, from Chris answering our numerous questions at the Travel & Destinations Show in London to booking our trip with Maruska in evenings after we'd finished work. We'd just like to say a big Thank You to everyone at Expert Africa, and we'll remember you for the future should we decide to head back to Africa!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We really appreciated two key aspects of your setup:
- Your presence at the Earl's Court Travel & Destination show and Chris' kindness in sitting down with us for over an hour to talk with us about Botswana and the surrounding area
- Being able to speak to Maruska after UK work hours, whilst she was located out in New Zealand (thankfully all charged at UK rates).

We have always believed that acting responsibly is the only way to approach tourism and we're one of
the few companies to hold AITO's original coveted 5-star status for responsible tourism. It's a lead
that others are now following.
