Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"Namibia was an incredible place.

Stunning scenery, vast skies and rugged open roads. Easy to navigate and felt safe the whole trip.

People are generally very friendly and helpful. The wildlife in Namibia and especially Etosha was incredible. Saw so many animals and birds. Some outstanding accommodation and food.

An adventure we will be talking about for years to come." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"This is the second trip that my husband and I have used Expert Africa for after travelling to Namibia last year, and our experience this time as previous was exceptional.

Rwanda exceeded all of our expectations, obviously gorilla trekking was a highlight but all other aspects equally as enjoyable.

Rwanda especially was so green, agricultural, wildlife, stunning scenery, clean with kind and gentle people and on the surface full of progress and opportunity after a period of sad history.

It would be our pleasure to return to explore further.

The concept of the East African visa for multiple entry travel to Uganda, Rwanda and Kenya available on arrival in Kigali for a fee of US $100 to holders of a British passport among others is excellent and very convenient.

The service of Primate Safari's and Sura our guide/driver were without fault, from being greeted at the airport on arrival to being dropped off at departure.

Sabina last year and Amanda this year went out of their way to offer their suggestions, experiences and recommendations and tailor itineraries as needed.
It is their personal involvement, enthusiasm and experience which enable them to offer a superior product.

Africa can be a challenging and expensive Continent to travel in but the knowledge and cohesiveness of the Expert Africa team and their local vendors makes the entire experience so special and worthwhile.

They are a credit to their organisation and we have no hesitation in using them repeatedly or recommending to other people.

Many thanks for another superb and memorable trip! We wish you continued success.

At present nothing that we can think of... a pleasure to deal with." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 4 on a Rwanda safari

"A wonderful week despite the hours I spent without blood in my veins. it was a very quick week but the order in which the 3 components were arranged was ideal - Gorges, Camp, Victoria Falls.

Every treansfer, activity, flight worked perfectly.

A word about your website. I'm not very computer literate but I have never found such a comprehensive, informative and easy to navigate site in all my life. There is so much useful content.I could read it like a book.

"Unbelievable - just loved it. So glad I went through Expert Africa.

Megan was just wonderful from the very start. Nothing seemed too much trouble for her. Huge thank you to you Megan - all your suggestions and recommendations were just spot on. So glad we did both mobile and lodge, but I think mobile is the overall winner!


Will definitely be recommending Expert Africa to friends and colleagues." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari

"This was an extremely enjoyable holiday which was full of great memories.

All of the camps were excellent but we particularly enjoyed our visits to Kaingo and Mwamba. The organisation by Expert Africa and Claire was excellent. We never felt pressured when designing the holiday and Claire clearly understood what we were seeking and devised a schedule which met our requirements.

The whole trip went without any organisational problems.

We would like to mention the great service provided by your agents in Lusaka who managed the transfers between Lusaka Airport and Latitude 15. Having travelled for 20 hours we really appreciated the friendly, efficient service they provided." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"Lodge, staff, pool & food were all excellent.

It was not really easy to walk too far - about half a mile to local village
When the tide is in the beach is completely covered - the plus is that the sea comes right up to the Lodge; the minus is that it limits the possibility of swimming" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zanzibar holiday

"We had a wonderful time. This was our fourth visit to South Luangwa so we knew what to expect. Everything ran smoothly - from an easy and rapid booking process to the flights and transfers. It was really good to have the spacious family chalet (again!) at Kaingo, and to have Andrew and Yoram as guides, both of whom have been excellent in the past.

The very recent addition of electric battery charging points in each chalet at Mwamba was a welcome touch. This is worth mentioning to future travelers as it means that there is no longer a need to try to conserve camera battery life when staying there for a few days."

We could not be happier." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"Great Trip with a good mix of safari, beach and town.

Seemed the timings were just perfect thanks to your advice! Safari was so well organised could relax and enjoy ourselves.

So glad we included seeing stone town to break it up slightly and the beach recommendations were just what we needed!
