Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"We had an amazing trip; we've been to Southern Africa many times before and this was one of the best trips we've made.

We took in some football and then fled the vuvuzelas (which we actually quite liked) for Botswana and Zimbabwe. Maruska was outstanding and as usual Chris knew his stuff!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zimbabwe safari

"the balance of a week in the peaks at Robin Pope Camps in South Lunganga and six night at sausage tree was just right and provided good value.

Pioneer Camp would have been fine when the weather was hot but not during the coldest month of the year. it was a sad end to a wonderful trip and as cost wasnt an issue for this night then poor advice from you." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

"I count myself as very lucky for having been able to take this trip to Rwanda and Tanzania. Both countries are so beautiful, and it is a profound spiritual experience to see nature in such raw form.

From a practical standpoint, everything went smoothly, and from the moment I boarded the BA flight to Nairobi, I didn't have to give a thought to logistics, and was just able to relax and focus on the trip. This was my third trip with Expert Africa and I can't imagine using another travel agency. I really trust Expert Africa and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"We enjoyed every moment of our trip to South Luangwa & Lake Malawi and are left with some wonderful memories & over 1400 photographs to sort through. Expert Africa's travel arrangements were faultless and the help given in planning our trip very knowledgeable. This was our second trip with Expert Africa and we would certainly recommend them and will use them again.

We have stayed in excellent camps and would recommend Robin Pope & The Bushcamp company equally. The game viewing was excellent and the hospitality everywhere was beyond expectations.

The weather in late June was not too hot during the day and not too cold at night, couldn't have been better." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"From our first enquiry (taken by Anna) to our return home, your company's arrangement were faultless and comprehensive. Our bush camp experience exceeded all possible expectations and we would recommend the Bushcamp Company without reservation.
We appreciate that BA is the only airline serving Lusaka, but we would have reservations about flying with them again.

As we have said in the feedback, the Pioneer Camp was disappointing - perhaps there are better alternatives.

We think this feedback form is fantastic. Many times we have taken the trouble to write to other comapanies after a trip, and we never get evan an acknowledgement, and get the feeling they don't really want it. You obviously do. We shall certainly consider travelling with you again, and have no hesitation in recommending you to our friends." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"We both thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and were sorry to leave.

Would love to go back again as the whole experience was fantastic especially the walking and the treatment by the fantastic staff and guides at all the bush camps." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"Fantastic - thanks Claire! An excellent mix of lodges and experiences with some much needed RnR at either end. We would highly recommend Expert Africa to friends and family going forward.

"The trip was exellent and the country was amazing. The people of Rwanda are friendly and warm, its great to visit a country that has not been totally overdeveloped by tourism.

The tags for the bags, document wallet was a very nice touch." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 6 on a Rwanda safari

"We asked for something special to celebrate our Golden Wedding anniversary and we certainly got it. The highlights are too numerous to mention but we must comment on the people - they were all so friendly and helpful which really was one of the factors making this such a great holiday. We have returned full of wonderful memories.

Apart from specifics already covered, we must compliment Sefofane for very comfortable flight transfers. The game drive transfer between Ongava and Onguma was spoiled by it being unusually windy which meant we arrived at Onguma very, very dusty, but we did see lions on the way walking right up to our vehicle.

We should mention that South African 200 Rand noted are no longer accepted in Namibia due to problems with forgeries. They can only be exchanged at Bank of Namibia. There is no problem with smaller denominations.
