"My Jul 2012 trip"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 24 Jul 2012 and 8 Aug 2012
"A great safari/beach holiday. Excellent organisation and advice throughout from Expert Africa. We will certainly book with Expert on our next Africa trip.

PS - our driver Stanford at Ngorongora could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable - he gave us a real insight into the local culture and traditions and coped admirably with three very long days.

The transfers in Zanzibar were the opposite. The driver meeting us in Stonetown barely said hello and never said a word during the 80 minute drive to Baraza. The return trip back to Stonetown was not much better (although we were picked up at 4am!). We were dropped off at Stonetown airport with no offer of assistance to discover we had to wait over an hour before the Coastal desk opened. It would have helped if the driver had shown us where to wait and warned us that we were early - Stonetown airport is not exactly Heathrow T5!"

"Unforgettable!"

I visited Botswana between 22 Jul 2012 and 2 Aug 2012
"With hindsight we would have skipped Kasane. If we had known what the "game drive" from Savute airstrip to Linyanti was actually like we probably would have cancelled this camp but glad we didn't as the game viewing there, not to mention the elephants all round our tent was wonderful. Kanana was fantastic.

Botswana was even more astonishing than I had anticipated and I would love to go back.

Thank you Nick for all your advice and help and for your unfailing good humour. Next time I will have a clearer idea of exactly what suits us - just have to put the pennies on one side!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari

"My Jul 2012 trip"

I visited Namibia between 22 Jul 2012 and 7 Aug 2012
"1st time to Namibia & Africa for us. Big distances to cover similar to US, Australia etc, so we knew what this entailed. Before we went we got the usual intake of breath from people when they asked us where we were going on holiday and we said Africa, so we went with an open mind and all the travel jabs etc.

The realillty for us was to meet the most friendly local people of any past holiday, experience mostly excellent service and food, see some amazing animals and scenery and feel very comfortable with everything around us. We wanted to go over land as we enjoy the travelling and self driving. This was fun in its self as the roads were mostly totally empty. We will certainly go back again and explore more new places in Africa.

I think for people making their 1st African self drive trip, Namibia is a good destination. The itinery put together by Expert Africa was well thought out, took in all the highlights and made the whole thing work well with realistic driving targets. The documentation that we were sent before hand was well considered and allowed us to make good preparations.

We would certainly have no problems recommending them to friends or using them again." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"We'll return to celebrate some anniversary!"

I visited Namibia between 20 Jul 2012 and 2 Aug 2012
"Nothing much to say other than: it has been several months since we came back and we still get excited remembering our honeymoon.

Everything was worth it and Expert Africa really helped us out. Their suggestions were spot on and their assistance was invaluable in planning such a trip to a destination completely unknown to us.

Our only regret was not having taken more time to see more of Namibia (we wish to go see the Caprivi region and Damaraland). We'll have to leave that for the next time we visit the country!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip

"AWESOME TRIP"

I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 18 Jul 2012 and 5 Aug 2012
"Overall...perfect trip.

For the most part, everything ran smoothly. Transfers were on time, reservations were all correct. Only hiccup was at Kati Kati, where we were directed to three different camps before finding the correct one. Other than that the trip was truly amazing. Each place knew we were on our honeymoon and did special little things for us.

Nomad Tanzania, and especially our guide, Cornelius, were amazing. Made our trip so much better than we could have expected. Will be recommending an African trip, Maruska, Nomad, and Expert Africa to all our our friends and families.

"Zambian Anniversary Trip"

I visited Zambia between 17 Jul 2012 and 26 Jul 2012
"The trip was fantastic. My only recommendation might be to have stayed at one less camp and that way we weren't moving after 2 nights each time. We loved all the camps but felt in transit a lot. I think for our first safari we were so blessed to have seen and experienced so much. Thank you for setting up a trip of a lifetime.

I wanted to let you know that we didn't have to pay the airport tax twice if our second flight was a domestic flight. We ended up having someone from Robin Pope let us know that and he went to customer service and got us a waiver from the fee. It was nice of them to let us know."

"Our trip was everything we wanted and more!"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 17 Jul 2012 and 29 Jul 2012
"The trip was really well paced with enough time in each place to feel like you had enjoyed everything on offer. Also a great mix of relaxation focussed places and camps who excelled at giving a really excellent safarii experience, plus enough time at the end for some culture and history.

I think we both came away feeling we wouldn't have wanted anything else in our honeymoon and wouldn't have changed a thing." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari
