Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"Faultless.
A huge, huge thank you to Jessica! She was professional, helpful, patient and insightful from the early stages of our trip planning. She was always quick to reply to emails and was happy to make adjustments if needed. It was lovely receiving our pack in the post.

Every step of our trip was smooth and we never had to wait around or feel anxious about where we were going or who was picking us up. We always felt safe and relaxed.
Everyone person who met us was friendly and punctual. The places we stayed were all excellent and the safari camp in particular has given us unforgettable memories we will treasure.
Thank you Jessica and Expert Africa. We would definitely recommend you and use you in the future- we're already thinking about our next trip!" Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 6 on a Kenya safari

"Great experience and we would love to go back tomorrow.

Anton put together a fantastic trip and did so in a very short amount of time.

Chris and his team helped us with our missing luggage on a sunday. First class service.

Thank you so much to everyone who made this trip so special." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari

"Enjoyed it all and would hope to go back. I feel the density of game would perhaps not suit a first timer at this time of year. However we had some amazing sightings including a herd of 800+ buffalo at 4 rivers and male giraffe fighting as well as a fair number of predator sightings.

We were able to spend some time identifying birds, we are very interested amateurs. I would suggest anyone with more than a passing interest might need to book a private tour as not all safari goers wish to spend the time in the same way.

That being said, the guides did very well at keeping everyone on the vehicles happy." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Botswana safari

"Very happy with how Tamara guided us through the options for Walking safaris and organised the trip.

One small gripe the EA are aware of - we had quite a long lay over on arrival and time would have been better split 50/50 between Terminal 3 (International) and Terminal 1 (light aircraft). Terminal 1 was relatively basic and Terminal 3 would have afforded more and better eating options after 20 hours of travelling. Feedback on this was very quickly and sensitively handled.

We expect to use Expert Africa again !" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"This was my eighth safari trip. The last five safaris have been with Expert Africa.

Although this was the first safari without my wife it was still very enjoyable and probably one of the best. Usually we booked our safaris a year in advance but this time in response to the special offers for safaris in Botswana the trip was booked less than six weeks beforehand.

The advice in planning of the trip and developing the itinerary with Expert Africa was easy and smooth.

From the time I arrived in Maun and until I left for home everything went to plan." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari

"This was a spectacular trip.

We were impressed by everything from the moment we started communicating with Expert Africa, our travel planner Jessica was attentive to our likes/wants/needs and made sure our trip came together wonderfully even though it was a little bit last minute. There were wonderful unexpected details like mailing us a Kenya guide and luggage tags that added to the delight and anticipation.

The trip itself flowed seamlessly and we didn't have to think about any logistics, we could just enjoy the experience. The places we visited were gorgeous, and we were blown away by the service and facilities at our safari lodge and the beauty of Diani beach.

We were also pleasantly surprised at how good the food was throughout the trip, as this was not something we had high expectations of. We got to do exactly what we'd asked for: enjoy nature, eat well, stay in small hotels, spend almost all our time outside, see lots of animals, and rest by the beach at the end.

This was hands down the best trip we've been on (this is saying a lot because we're big travellers and have high standards) and we've been raving about it since we returned.

Thank you!" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Kenya safari
