It did what is said on the tin.

Very different camps that permitted a range of different experiences and activities.

"A fabulous trip featuring some really excellent camps and wonderful wildlife opportunities.

We were delighted to have Lucy Copson's help again in planning this trip.
She is absolutely fantastic in listening to our requirements and attending to detail.

Could not recommend her more highly." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"This trip was as perfect as it could be. The advice and support from Lucy was excellent and she is clearly well liked and thought of in the camps we visited.

We could not have wished for more other than to have stayed longer and enjoyed the lodges, the friendly owners, managers and support staff. Nothing seem to be too much trouble and everyone had a smile on their faces

It was also memorable for the photo opportunities as we had time to take some excellent pictures of all the animals we encountered.

All the lodges were clean comfortable and gave us a sense of being at home in Africa. The locations and views from them all added to the experience.

Very pleased with everything." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"Overall we enjoyed our trip with friendly and helpful Kenyan staff, good food, top class and interesting wildlife and beautiful scenery.

The only fly in the ointment was the weather which Expert Africa cannot control - the feeling in the camps was that El Nino and climate change is now becoming a factor and people may need to adjust their thinking about timing their trips going forward?

We would recommend both camps we visited both for experienced safari travellers and first timers as there is something there for everybody." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Kenya safari

"We enjoyed our trip very much, mainly because we hadn't experienced this part of Botswana and Namibia before and that sense of anticipation of what to expect next was always something to look forward to.

The lodges/camps we chose were somewhat remote and transfers between them were actually quite long and a bit tiring. Botswana and Namibia border crossings and immigration were numerous and also tedious in some instances- long queues etc.

Wildlife sightings throughout the trip, apart from Elephants at Camp Kuzuma waterhole, were limited and hence a little disappointing. A visit to the Delta may be on the cards in the future but we would not return to this area." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 7 on a Namibia trip

"Overall we had a fantastic trip.

All the arrangements worked perfectly - except we didn't get met at the airport by Wilderness Safaris and had to go and find them." Read full review: 25 nights in Africa; 23 on a Namibia trip

"The trip as a whole worked really well.

The guidance received from Expert Africa was very helpful in deciding which camps we visited and all of them met or exceeded our expectations.

The arrangements in Botswana all worked efficiently." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari
