"Our trip with Expert Africa was phenomenal - the 5* reviews made total sense. We were looked after at every stage - from booking, to being greeted at the airport, to our food requirments being met and being in beautiful places. We made memories that will last a lifetime."

"My Dec 2024 trip"

I visited Kenya between 28 Dec 2024 and 6 Jan 2025
"It was wonderful, I've wanted to go on a safari all of my life and the trip exceeded even my incredibly high expectations!

I'm so grateful for all of the help and support I had from Parita in planning this trip. Her recommendations were perfect and we had the holiday of a lifetime.

The only problem is that this was supposed to be a once in a lifetime trip but we all just want to go back next year!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 6 on a Kenya safari

"My Dec 2024 trip"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 22 Dec 2024 and 5 Jan 2025
"Our trip was amazing.

Other than getting soaked through on one game drive at Shinde, it is hard to imagine how it could have gone better.

Everything happened on time and as it should. I can't think of a single person who wasn't helpful or better.

We traveled with our children and each place we stayed was great for them as well as us. We wanted a variety of experiences, but with a certain level of comfort and we were not left wanting. Really, an outstanding experience!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"Namib Desert, Damaraland, Etosha self-drive"

I visited Namibia between 22 Dec 2024 and 5 Jan 2025
"We visited Namibia with our family of seven adults in December 2024/January 2025. We chose to self-drive in two 4WD cars, traveling from Windhoek to the Namib Desert, to Swakopmund, Damaraland, Etosha, and finally Okonjima, before returning to Windhoek, a distance of 2000 kilometers in two weeks. We believe our itinerary allowed us to experience different desert and savannah environments, with their different wildlife species, without feeling we were driving too much.

We had chosen Namibia as none of the family except one had ever been to Africa on safari, and we wanted a special experience as my husband and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. It is fair to say this holiday is the best holiday any of us have ever had. Namibia is such a beautiful and varied country, it blew us away. We stayed in extremely comfortable lodges, which were all without exception outstanding. The staff were helpful and kind. The food delicious. The guides knowledgable and entertaining. And we saw so many different animals! If it hadn't started to rain hard on our last day I think we may never have left.

Expert Africa, and specifically Sabina, did a brilliant job organising the logistics: everything worked as per plan - the route and accommodation descriptions were accurate, the lodges expected us, the cars were brand new and drove well, and the supporting information provided relevant and useful.

Thank you very much for our holiday of a lifetime!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"My Dec 2024 trip"

I visited Kenya between 20 Dec 2024 and 8 Jan 2025
"Another superb safari arranged by Expert Africa and Claire Scott. The experience of arranging the trip to being under African skies was flawless. Expert Africa are my go-to Safari provider for a very good reason, they have an exceptional reputation with the camps and lodges and are attentive to your needs as a traveller.

It was an outstanding Safari focusing upon the Mara Conservancies and I could not praise Expert Africa, Claire, and the properties that I visited highly enough. Serian and Kicheche locations are superb with expert guides, management, staff, food, and hospitality are of an exceptional standard and are highly recommended. They really did feel like my home in Africa, and meeting likeminded travellers added to the experience.

One day after returning home I began to discuss my next trip with Claire.

Thank you, Claire, and all at Serian, Kicheche and in Nairobi who made this such an amazing safari and the memories to last a lifetime.

Simply outstanding from the moment that I began to plan the trip with Claire to the follow-up on my return and my next booking." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 18 on a Kenya safari

"Kenya - December 24"

I visited Kenya between 19 Dec 2024 and 5 Jan 2025
"A very enjoyable trip overall.

The variety of areas visited was fantastic and wildlife was really plentiful. Best camp of the trip was without a doubt Kicheche Mara.

Lyndsey at Expert Africa is most obliging. There were a couple of "hiccups" along the way, and I must admit having travelled on many safaris, this was a first for me. Lyndsey kindly followed up on every query I had, and I will certainly book again with Expert Africa.

Expert Africa's level of service is excellent, I honestly cannot think of any suggestions that may improve the trips and services." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 16 on a Kenya safari

"3-generation family tour"

I visited Zimbabwe and 2 other countries between 18 Dec 2024 and 19 Jan 2025
"This was a special, month-long trip to revisit some of our favourite places in Zimbabwe, Botswana and Western Cape. We were joined for part of it by 6 family members, including one son-in-law and two grandchildren (aged 8 & 10) who were having their first experience of Africa.

Lucy took a lot of trouble putting together an itinerary in which everyone’s requests could be included. She made some excellent suggestions for accommodation and activities, which we all enjoyed. The Zambezi cruise on New Year’s Eve was just one example.

As there were eight of us for almost half of the tour, we were treated as a ‘group’. This meant we had our own vehicle and guide for safaris, which was very relaxing and we all had a lot of fun.

A major flight delay at the start threatened to seriously derail our itinerary. It was a couple of days before Christmas, but the team at Expert Africa sprang into action and got everything back on track incredibly quickly.

The South African part of the holiday was just the two of us. It included a hire car and some very high quality accommodation.

We had very high expectations of this trip and were not disappointed, thanks to Lucy and her colleagues." Read full review: 32 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Dec 2024 Malawi trip"

I visited Malawi between 18 Dec 2024 and 29 Dec 2024
"It was a fantastic trip and I really enjoyed it.

The parks and lodges are beautiful with excellent and full activities and great guides and overall fairly quiet. People were all really friendly too. My focus for this trip was birdwatching and photography and overall I saw 266 species of birds as well as lots of mammals including hippos and elephants as well as two lion sightings of a mother and three cubs and a cheetah sighting.

The evening drives were also great including my first porcupine sighting, a civet cat as well as nightjars, a bat hawk and couple of owls. I'm very glad I included Zomba Mountain too as this provided greater diversity of a different environment in Malawi and more diverse species of birds which can't be seen in the large parks.

It was a wonderful trip!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Overall the trip was great and Maruska was really helpful in arranging everything. Her speed of response/feedback was great and detailed which is one of the reasons I ended up going on this trip as it 'got ahead of other options'.

Also when I asked about an option, Zomba, which appeared less well known it was followed up quickly and really good arrangements made. I really enjoyed the trip. Thanks!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 8 on a Malawi trip
