Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"Amazing, yet again, and EA made it all very relaxing." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"The whole trip was awesome! Our agent Ellie did a great job in helping us put together a perfect itinerary, and we were looked after from beginning to end. Both our guides were great, especially Fred George who took care of us so well and helped us have a fantastic experience. The only disappointment was leaving with over $250 of brand new ruined clothes from Sayari Camp.

"this trip was simply unforgettable. The combination of our stay in Capetown where our theme was the ocean , and our safari in Botswana felt like making two trips one after the other.

The choice of the three camps by Megan was and excellent one. they presented three different environments, which made it even more interesting. All of our family enjoyed every aspect of the safari experience, everything was perfect. we were also very impressed by how knowledgeable our guides were. Our one and only disappointment, we did not get to see a lion, we will have to go back!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"The only real problem was the COLD. The early mornings and evenings (nights) were perishing. We did not have enough warm clothes, nor were any of the lodges (except Cornerstone) equipped for their quite short winter.

Don't think there's any way round the Okaukuejo catering problem.

The cold (July) needs more emphasis. Double fuel tank well worth specifying. The C14 road to Swakopmund from Sesriem is known as the worst road in Namibia (and that's saying something) - there's no other way to cover that ground but you should maybe warn customers. The country lived up to expectations." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 17 on a Namibia trip

"A holiday of a lifetime! Could not have been better! We wouldn't change a thing, except to stay longer in each place. We will return to Zambia!

"A wonderful trip.

The two camps were both fantastic experiences and both very different in style, Mwagusi was fast paced, close up, rustic and informal, where as Beho Beho was slow paced, a bit more open plain and distant, luxury and formal.

The contrast in experiences enhanced our trip, excellent advice Liz!!" Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari

"We had a wonderful holiday and we enjoyed every minute of it. Everything was perfeclty organized and met our expectations. Thanks Maruska for taking care of everything!

Hopefully we will be back soon, this time with more walking safaris!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"This was a really well organised holiday where everything went like clockwork from our first contact with Expert Africa to getting off the plane at the end of the trip.

The Meru and Pinewood resorts were faultless and the quibbles with Mara could easily be fixed.

I would highly recommend both Expert Africa and the itinerary that we followed, it really was a special experience for all 4 of us.

"I think my experiences of this trip may be summed up as superb. I am 66 years of age and I have made it known that if I am fit and able when I turn 70 I want to bring my family (including grand children) on a similar trip." Read full review: 5 nights in Africa; 5 on a Namibia trip

"I'm very sincere when I say that it was spectacular! 5 out of 6 of our travelers had previously been on safari and they all agree that this was the best experience they have had on safari in Africa. The wildlife was amazing, as were the camps and all of the people we met. Memories to last a lifetime!

Feedback form could be more specific and less open. The brochure was great! My only suggestion might be to make the link the the brochure more visible on the website as I thought that the brochure was the best tool to decide on a trip (excluding Megan who was very helpful as well).

Otherwise the trip was very well organized and very thorough. There weren't any problems with reservations or transitions whatsoever. It was easy and seamless!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
