Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"We had a fantastic week in Botswana in August 2016, as part of our honeymoon, and couldn't be happier with the service provided by Expert Africa in providing suggestions, making the arrangements, and ensuring smooth execution of each stage of the trip."

"We were very pleased that all the arrangements made for us by Expert Africa, camps and lodges, internal flights, transfers and extra activities all happened seamlessly.

When a problem arose with our booking before we travelled, Expert Africa resolved the situation quickly and at no cost to ourselves for which we were very grateful." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

"This was our 17th trip with Expert Africa (dating back to 2006); but it was somewhat different to most of our previous ones in that we had two family members with us making their first trip to Africa.

Our guests had spent two weeks in Zambia with us before we took this trip, mainly at our home just outside Livingstone. But, other than a day at Masuku Lodge just north of Choma and a couple of sunset cruises around 'our' patch of the Zambezi, this had not been safari as such. We therefore wanted to give them a good taste of the wildlife. We picked The Hide in Hwange NP and Victoria Falls (Gorges Lodge) because of their proximity to our home in Livingstone and our wish for our guests to see the Victoria Falls on both sides.

This turned out to be about as good a final week to their three week trip as we could have imagined, not only in absolute terms but also as a great counterpoint to the time our guests spent in Zambia. It was also very good from our perspective too. Getting such a good balance is not straightforward and we are grateful to the team at Expert Africa for once again coming up trumps."

"As always we had a great time and cannot give any adverse comment on the whole experience. We have been fortunate to have been to Zambia many times through Expert Africa and Robin Pope Safaris and no two safaris are ever the same. There are always new sights smells and experiences.

This may have been our last safari as age is catching up on us on the journey out and back is long and tiring without a direct flight. Nevertheless if direct flights do return the temptation to return to Zambia may become too great to ignore.

You were kind enough to send us the Bradt guide on Northern Tanzania book to read. This was very much appreciated and not expected. But since we booked a safari for 12 days in Rwanda, it would have been nice for you to include the Bradt guide to Rwanda also. We purchased it on our own."

"We had an amazing trip to South Luangwa.
We have been on many safaris before but never seen so much game, especially Leopard and Lion, as this time.
Our camps were faultless and our guides were wonderful.
Claire, thank you for organizing such a lovely trip for us.
We really appreciated your advice in the camps you helped us choose.
They were all excellent.
A perfect holiday!" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"We weren't sure if this trip would be as good as our 1st trip to Namibia 2 years ago. I'm delighted to say it was at least as good if not better.

Our thanks go to Sabina for all her patience and help in putting our trip together. We have got some wonderful photographs and memories from this trip to treasure. Thanks again.
