"Our Oct 2015 was our best yet to africa"
the main disappointments were that there was less game than expected, especially at Linyanti, and less water than expected in Okavango.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
with hindsight we may have chosen to make our (probably) only visit to Okavango earlier in the year when water-levels are higher. overall, whilst very good, the difference from other safaris weve been on wasn't as great as expected" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"My Oct 2015 trip"
Attention to every detail from the first conversation with Megan to our departure from Victoria Falls.
We could not have asked for better service. Expert Africa knows what it is doing.
Very Satisfactory would be excellent if that were a choice.

I really can't think of anything to change.
Megan was responsive, knowledgable, and open to discussion." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari
"My Oct 2015 trip"
Nick was extremely helpful in pointing us in the right direction for camp selection from a large number of options. The camps were a perfect balance to the remainder of our trip which was a horseback safari in the Delta.
This was our second trip to Africa with Expert Africa and we will not hesitate to refer you to friends (we already have) and contact you when and if we return in the future. I loved not having to worry about anything throughout the entire trip. We were well taken care of from start to finish. Thank you.

"My Oct 2015 trip"
It would have probably wiser to choose another camp than Selinda (Chitabe?,Savuti? Mombo?) even if this one was great." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

We didn't see nearly as many animals as we thought we would." Read full review: 6 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"Another unforgettable trip to Botswana"
We visited different landscapes an environments, saw so many and different species including 3 times wild dogs, 11 different(!) leopards, lions, many and even rare antelopes, probably thousand elephants and finally a pangolin (not to forget about 120 different bird species in total !!!)
We met again so many friendly and helpful people and were happy to join celebrations of Day of Independence.
We will come back to Africa! This trip was our third one with Expert Africa and again everything worked perfect!
Many thanks to wonderful Megan who was so helpful in planing this trip with us and never got tired to answer all our (many!) questions.
Her organisation was perfect and we definitely will plan our next trip to Africa with this very special and knowledgeable agency again!
Thanks again and all the very best to all of you!!!" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 15 on a Botswana safari
"Wonderful African Safari"
"My Sep 2015 trip"
There were no blips with the organization and all that was expected to happen, happened, and we had no fault to find with it. Any adverse comments in the previous pages [Ed: the individual lodge reviews] are very, very minor ones, but you did ask!
All in all we'd go with Expert Africa again without any doubt." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari
