"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Namibia between 29 Aug 2015 and 10 Sep 2015
"Fantastic. Stunning scenery, and lovely laid back, friendly Namibian people.

The book on Namibia was invaluable, particularly, the guidance on local, en-route stops. Obviously written by people who knew their way around Namibia.

The level of support provided by Sabina was outstanding." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Zambia between 29 Aug 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"This holiday was one of the best of our lives. On every level - the wildlife, the people, the landscape, the camps - it was an adventure we will never forget.

Maruska advised us very well - we were delighted to be able to do some walking, but glad we didn't do too much more on our initial trip, as we saw so much more wildlife from the vehicles. Each of the camps had its own style and personality, so nothing felt repetitious and it was great to be exposed to two very different national parks.

We're already longing to return to Africa and some of our camps so will plan to be in touch!

Just make them cheaper so we can go more often!!!" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Zambia between 29 Aug 2015 and 8 Sep 2015
"It was a wonderful week + with the family in Zambia. We would have changed a few minor decisions if we had it to do over again, but that said, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget. Everything was well organized, we loved the camps and lodges that we stayed at. We all gained lots of weight because the food was so good.

The wildlife was amazing and we just couldn't believe how much we saw, even just on our first day in the bush. The guides were excellent. Thanks for arranging this vacation with us." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Namibia between 29 Aug 2015 and 15 Sep 2015
"Really enjoyed our stay and the flexibility of our trip.

Impressed by the advice and help received from the Expert Africa staff. Only regret was we wished we had stayed a night near Twyfelfontein to give us more time to see the rock engravings, petrified forest etc." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip

"Trip of a lifetme, dream come true"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 28 Aug 2015 and 10 Sep 2015
"I've dreamed of visiting Africa for 45 years. As such, the expectations were great and I wondered if reality could ever live up to the imaginings.

Well, it did. What a gift, to live my dream. Thank you Freddie and colleagues (you were fantastic!) for your recommendations, attention to every detail and making this the trip of a lifetime. Not only for me but for my travelling companions. We all agree - trip of a lifetime!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"Highlights all the way"

I visited Namibia between 27 Aug 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"For me, what sets Namibia apart is the rapid change in the extraordinary desert and arid landscapes over remarkably short east-west distances. Plant and animal life has in turn adapted to the varying climatic conditions making a journey here continually fascinating. Driving through this scenery on Namibian roads is a joy and the hospitality and comfort encountered at camps and lodges is first-rate. Our holiday comprised only highlights. I should like to make a special mention of the private safari in Kunene which Expert Africa arranged for us with Conservancy Safaris which is operated for and by indigenous communities in the northwest. This was adventure and education; both provided at the highest of standards.

We were extremely pleased with Expert Africa's knowledgable and professional advice in putting together our trip. They conscientiously ensured they understood our aims prior to giving clearly-justified, thoughtful, well-expressed options for us to consider. It was always a pleasure to receive Martha's mails or calls and all discussions were promptly and usefully followed up. As a result, we had a superb holiday in which all arrangements were executed flawlessly.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

We appreciated all of the elements of Expert Africa's service that we used.

The website is extensive, free of failing links or outdated information and is well-written.

I especially appreciated that all communications were in impeccable and well-formulated English; such unambiguous and literate writing sadly being a rarity in commercial enterprises!

I can not offer much in the way of help regarding suggestions for improvements. I guess your standards of expertise, professionalism and communication have been built on solid foundations and planning which will keep the business on track for many years to come.

It would have been nice if you had been able to help with travel insurance for non-UK residents (because I am not especially happy with what I find on the Belgian market) but that is the only point I can think to raise." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"Great Safari in Botswana."

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 27 Aug 2015 and 11 Sep 2015
"Wild dogs were on the top of our wish list and we saw them on our second game drive. Other great sightings as well: leopard cheetah with cubs, lion with very small cubs and so many other animals.

Stayed at three different camps, all in different terrains making for different habitats. Good food, wonderful people. Relaxing at Quilalea, mozambique rounded of the trip in a fantastic way." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

"Our trip to Namibia August 2015"

I visited Namibia between 26 Aug 2015 and 10 Sep 2015
"Our trip to Namibia exceeded all our expectations. We were bowled over by the beauty and diversity of the country, its people and all of the nature that we were able to experience.

All of the arrangements made for us by Expert Africa worked smoothly. All of the information provided by them before our trip was excellent.

One thing strikes me that I would like to mention. Namibia is a country of wide contrasts and that is one of its glories. One could spend long time there discovering all of its treasures. However, unfortunately time for the average holiday-maker is limited. We spent mainly two nights in one place and then moved on. Because of the contrast in areas, places and types of accommodation, I found that moving on to the next place brought with it something like culture shock, because I had been so charmed with the last place and took a little time to adjust to the new. This is not a criticism and I would not have changed anything about our itinerary which was excellently planned, it's just an observation." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip
