"My Nov 2012 trip"
It was good to be able to fly direct from the Cape to Maun and Air Botswana were good apart from one delay of over an hour, but that's air travel!" Read full review: 5 nights in Africa; 5 on a Botswana safari

Great job ... keep it that way !!!" Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"Africa - one of our most memorable trips"
We visited Africa primarily for the safaris and it is the safaris that made the trip memorable. Seeing the animals, in their natural habitats, doing what they normally do, without cages, boundaries, restrictions." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

Give Maruska a raise or she will be stolen by another firm. She was wonderful, not just in prep for the trip but also towards the end. She was amazing and unflappable when we e mailed fr zanzibar saying we wanted to cancel pole pole and stay the remainder at ras ngwui. We spent a bit more but it was worth the change and Maruska took a bit of the pain of that away by very quickly processing the resulting refunds for the decreased air costs. Maruska is the type of rep that ANY major corporation wod want to keep content." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zanzibar holiday
"My Oct 2012 trip"
Our only issue was with Isaac who seemed rather uninspired and just looking forward to the end of the season. For the rest: Full marks to the entire Remote Africa Safaris team.
As BA cancelled the first leg of our flight to Lusaka we had almost lost one of our only eight days in the bush. But thanks to Ellie's fantastic help and support (even though we had booked the tickets ourselves) we managed to arrive in Zambia as originally planned. Brilliant service. We are most grateful.

"Little Kwara Safari"
"My Oct 2012 trip"
Before arriving I particularly hoped to see wild dogs and leopard I saw these and, in addition, a large variety of other creatures including bat eared foxes, bush pigs, hyenas, jackals, various mongeese etc. plus a large variety of birds, I can't think that of anything significant that was missed and this was due to the abilities of the guides and drivers.
One of the most enjoyable holidays that I have had. I did not find a single member of camp staff who was not both knowledgeable and helpful (sometimes limited a little by a slight language barrier).

I have no particular comment to make regarding improvements to the the trip or service but see my comments with regard to the fly-camp.
Having only decided to make the trip at very late notice I was very impressed by the the holiday produced by Liz in the limited time available.
I would recommend the Expert Africa to others.
My apologies for not having replied sooner. The road to hell is paved with good intentions!!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari
