Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"Loved Zambia. Very friendly and excellent safari drives." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 17 on a Zambia safari

"We had a great time on this trip. Namibia is probably the most beautiful country we've ever been.

Our itinerary was probably not the most common for first-time visitors as we skipped some of the more popular destinations. The main goal was to see a variety of desert environments in a relatively slow pace. We also wanted to try self-driving in Africa while not covering too much distance.

Exert Africa came up with a part-fly, part-drive itinerary which took into account our requests and which we enjoyed greatly. The most impressive part was probably that the team managed all this despite our very late trip planning and booking (2-3 weeks before our travel date)."

"I loved my trip, it was my first safari and Claire Scott did a wonderful job in arranging it all for me, and also answering all my questions prior to departure - thanks Claire.

I would definitely recommend Expert Africa and Robin Pope to anyone. All the people that worked at the camps were really really friendly and nice, those that were local to the area especially so. I also like the ethos on the drives of not crowding the animals with to many vehicles, as great as it is to see the animals, it is still their home. All the guides were extremely respectful of the animals and the environment and very knowledgeable.

I think this has probably been my best holiday ever so far, I was extremely lucky with all the friendly people I met either on the plane or at the camps and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, despite being somewhat scared at the start.

Thank you very much to all involved, public facing and behind the scenes." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"We had an amazing time in Africa and loved our trip. All the places to stay were nice and pretty much everything we did was enjoyable.

Most disappointing thing was cancelled balloon flight but that was out of anyone's control.

Thank you for arranging it and we would definitely recommend Namibia and Expert Africa to others. Didn't want to come home!" Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 15 on a Namibia trip

"Great trip all camps lived up to expectations all offering something different. Game drives excellent lucky to see both leopard and cheetah kills which is rare to see both.

The full migration not yet happening as wilder beast content with grasses in Tanzania and major crossing not expected until Sept/Oct

"Namibia is a stunningly beautiful country and from our experience Namibians are universally warm and friendly. We had a fantastic trip and would recommend it to anyone who enjoys active holidays.

With one glitch, (the car being sent to the wrong guesthouse) all the arrangements worked extremely well and the information we were given in advance was very comprehensive and helpful. Nothing important was missing. This will always be one of our most memorable holidays." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 17 on a Namibia trip
