"Flawless"
Our trip was everything we expected...and more. This trip was for my husband's 40th birthday & she must have let all the lodges know because they all did something special for him. It really made the whole experience extra special for him.
Our entire trip was flawless - from the pickup at Livingstone airport to drop off at Likoma's tiny airport for our journey back to the States. Thank you so much, Claire & Expert Africa, for putting together a trip we will remember forever.

"My Jun 2015 trip"
"Wonderful Holiday"
My family has an active, adventurous spirit, which Claire Scott (Expert Africa) picked up on right away as we discussed options nearly nine months prior. Accordingly, Claire recommended camps that met our desires and expectations. I cannot say enough about how easy it was to work with Expert Africa and how efficiently our holiday played out. Complex logistics were well planned and execution was seamless. Well done!" Read full review: 39 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
"June 2015"
Have to get wet in the Smoke that Thunders.
Susuwe Island Lodge, peacefully exhilarating. Game drives on the water, and on land were exceptional. Guide was terrific.
CHobe Chilwero was a diamond. Facilities, food and staff were unbelievable. The animal interaction was the best! Tracked a Lion pride of 12 lion for almost 2 hours, up close and personal." Read full review: 6 nights in Africa; 2 on a Namibia trip
