Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"Overall an excellent trip with some nice added extras from the camps as they knew it was our honeymoon.

Nick at expert africa did a great job organising everything, especially considering the changes caused by Air Seychelles dropping their long haul flights." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari

"Namibia is a fantastic country, and a self-drive trip is the best way of seeing everything it has to offer.

Although Etosha was the high point, Sossusvlei, the Namib-Naukluft mountains and Erongo were not far behind. The smaller lodges were uniformally welcoming and the rooms & food exceeded our expectations.

Expert Africa provided lots of input which allowed us to choose our itinerary and ensured that everything ran smoothly once we'd arrived. We can't wait to return!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"Very satisfactory really does do justice to the experience. The scenery, the lodges, the people, the wildlife, the tours, the food; it was all wonderful!

Sabina was very patient, efficient and helpful throughout the booking process. Everything was well explained and ran like clockwork. Well done Expert Africa and thank you." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 7 on a Namibia trip

"Our trip was more than good. I cannot say more. We have just arrived back home this very early morning. But we can say that if we're going on another trip to lovely Namibia, or to some other country in Africa, we would like to let you arrange the details for it. We are used to handle our own arrangements, but we do realize that it's worth it all letting you do it, making it much more pleasant for us to take care about our on-spot-experiences.

We also went to Cape Town, but that was our own arrangement, although we were so lucky to have a free apartment in Vredehoek for two weeks. Things have changed there since I was there 40 years back as a very young sailor!

"We had a very good trip mostly spent bird watching and walking. We were very lucky with the weather having only one cloudy day and sunshine for the rest of the time (although the wind on the west coast can be pretty strong). The birdwatching was still good in April, although many of the migrating birds had headed north for the European summer, and many of the fresh water ponds had dried up.

Both the Vineyard and Farmhouse Hotels were well situated, with sufficient parking. Views of both table mountain and teh Langebaan lagoon from the hotels created lots of photo opportunities

"A great holiday, very well organized by Expert Africa. The suggestion to stay at the Islands of Siankaba was spot on, we really enjoyed our time there, as well as on the day trip to Chobe. To our surprise, the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge was a really nice place, which we did not expect from some of the comments we read on Trip Advisor earlier on.

Our only mild disappointment were the falls themselves (out of the hands of all that had to do with this trip) - there was so much water and hence so much spray in the air that it was not easy to really see the falls, but the good glimpses we got were fantastic.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

We were very impressed with the friendliness and efficiency of both Megan Ingoldby who handled the initial contact and Maruska Adye who led us through the steps and finalized the program - you could not really do better - and in such a cordial manner! Your brochure and guides as well as your website are amazing, never have I seen better!

We will certainly keep you in mind when we organize our next trip to Africa." Read full review: 5 nights in Africa; 3 on a Zambia safari
