"My Nov 2018 trip"
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
I felt very confident with Jessica's advice -- she had recently travelled to Ruaha NP -- and her appreciated her patience with my questions. I was working with several other safari companies at the same time and went with Expert Africa because she was able to work with my budget and time constraints and make all the arrangements for me.
I Got a little nervous after I completed the booking form and payment and didn't hear from Jessica again for 3 or 4 days -- notably over the weekend, but my trip was only 4 days away when I got confirmation." Read full review: 4 nights in Africa; 4 on a Tanzania safari
"Honeymoon Trip"
Personally for us, once we had left Cape Town we were very eager to cross into Namibia. As such we would have been prepared to have driven longer distances to gain an extra day or two in Namibia (e.g. a one night stop half way between Cape Town and Canyon Lodge).
Overall, it was a brilliant itinerary. Tracy was in continuous contact and accommodated our request to be able to explore Kolmanskop. The Expert Africa team are clearly very knowledgeable and well connected, and went out of their way to ensure we could have an incredible honeymoon within the confines of our budget. The pack they sent to us was also very comprehensive (including a detailed road map), and we would recommend them to anyone wishing to explore Namibia (safe in the knowledge their team would be on hand if there were any issues).
Thank you to Tracy and all at Expert Africa - we had the trip of a lifetime and hope to return in the future!" Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"Best Safari Yet"
Expert Africa's organisation is always impeccable. The camps were excellent - fantastic wildlife, great people.
We had some amazing, unique sightings that included a number of "firsts" for us of the rarer animals." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari
"Nov 18 Safari"
Special thanks to Richard for answering my myriad of questions with patience, and putting together such a fabulous holiday. Everything ran to schedule, there were no issues whatsoever, and it was all planned in meticulous detail by Richard. I contacted a few firms when booking the trip, and was very impressed with Richard, and intended to book with Expert Africa even if they didn't give the cheapest quote - but in fact they did, the price was really excellent considering it included so many flights and transfers and excursions.
We really enjoyed the different experiences in Samburu and the Mara, and can highly recommend this combination. To sum up, Saruni was the best experience in terms of lodge and stay, but the wildlife was much much more prolific at Ol Seki, and so it was great to combine the two.
All in all it was amazing, and now we cannot wait to return." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 6 on a Kenya safari
"Brilliant Zimbabwe Trip"
As regular safari travellers we accept not everything will go exactly as planned and you certainly can't guarantee what wildlife you will see but what you hope for is an overall experience that makes you think, yes that was a great holiday, and that is what we got.
Everyone from Imvelo Safaris that we encountered was a credit to the company and Zimbabwe is certainly a safari destination we can strongly recommend.
Expert Africa were again efficient and will be our first point of call for our next safari, thank you." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari
