Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"First, the team member who dealt most with my trip was Chloe Henderson. To be honest, she is the one who made me chose Expert Africa because I was about to go with either &Beyond or Ker & Downey. So, even if I know she left the company, special thanks to her, she was amazing and gave me incredible and valuable advice!

Having said that, our trip was excellent. Botswana/Vic Falls represented 1/3 of our trip (the two others being South Africa and Mozambique) and this was the highlight of our trip.

We will keep an unforgettable souvenir of this week, thank you!!" Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"This was to be a special and rare trip for us as all members of the family were to be together.

In fact the trip met and even exceeded our expectations. We have separately commented between us that this has been the trip of a lifetime.

Many thanks to Expert Africa and special thanks to Ellie who patiently guided us towards the right destinations and the right places to stay. We are very grateful.

We look forward to talking to you again - sometime - about our next trip!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari

"Our trip was absolutely incredible.

Liz worked with us and gave sound advice to create a trip that was beyond our expectations. Since I was a little girl I had dreamt about going on a safari in Africa and this was everything I could hope for and more. Our trip was completely personalized and we saw a lion chase a herd of wildebeest and kill one and then drag it almost a mile back to the pride. It was just us and our driver and guide. It was the law of nature.

Our guides and drivers were so knowledgeable and warm. We got to decide what to see and how long to stay. We watched the antics of baby baboons playing and swinging in the tree and playing king of the mountain. We saw a family of elephants playing in the water and a baby elephant nursing. It was just right mix of rustic and comfort and the everyone was so warm and helpful.

It was truly a trip of a lifetime." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"This trip was beyond our expectations (which were very high!). Fabulous wildlife viewing, superb and friendly camps, smooth transfers and first class guiding all added up to a trip which left us wanting to book another visit even before we left.

Our thanks to all at Remote Africa Safaris for making our visit so special - and to Expert Africa for their advice and making all the arrangements

"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
