"Everything was perfect"
I visited Botswana between 24 Nov 2014 and 1 Dec 2014
"The entire trip was magical.
Many thanks to the Rangers and guides who shared their world with us. The Rangers will make or break the safari experience. Kwondo Rangers are all top notch! The camps and accommodations are all outstanding." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 5 on a Botswana safari

"The trip of a lifetime, a perfect honeymoon."
I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 17 Nov 2014 and 28 Nov 2014
"Our trip with Expert Africa was fantastic, it was the trip of a lifetime and we had so many unforgettable experiences along the way.
The agents we dealt with have all been very friendly and helpful, we received all the information we needed before our trip and every transfer/flight/pick-up along the way went seamlessly.
We would definitely book with Expert Africa again." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 7 on a Namibia trip

"The Plains of Botswana"
I visited Botswana between 6 Nov 2014 and 18 Nov 2014
"The scenic quality of the Duba and Vumbura Plains make for exceptional photographic opportunities. Lion were in abundance as were buffalo, red lechwe and elephant. Sadly leopard and cheetah proved elusive this time round.
Everything was seamlessly put together by Expert Africa and all our requests taken care of. It is debatable whether the short two night break in Maun is necessary. So much of the journey has been accomplished by the time you make it to Maun you may as well do the last leg and get stuck into the main course.
Many thanks HUGH & CAROLE

The service provided was first class.
The agents used in Africa were all very good, with all connections being on time and running smoothly,
It is nice to have ones freedom on the trip but in the knowledge that there is support, advice or back up on hand if required." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 5 on a South Africa trip

"An experience of a lifetime"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 23 Oct 2014 and 8 Nov 2014
"This was our first Safari trip and it's hard top imagine how it could have been any better - we had a fabulous time and enjoyed every minute.
Thanks to Expert Africa for arranging a marvellous trip for us.

An extremely minor point, which is that, contrary to the info in our pre-holiday briefing pack, Zambian Immigration does now accept payment for the Visa in GBP (£35) as well as USD. And they seem quite happy to accept $50 bills, so there is no need to go running round trying to get USD in small denominations for this.
One other thing, if visiting Victoria Falls at this time of year(late October) we would recommend visiting the Zimbabwe side for a better experience, as there was very little water going over the Zambian part, which reduces the spectacle a little."

"Delightful"
I visited Botswana and 3 other countries between 16 Oct 2014 and 2 Nov 2014
"We loved our African experience, which was varied in location and captured all we wanted to see and do.
Kudos to ExpertAfrica for the detailed arrangements that went smoothly and without a hitch!

Your website is okay, but we actually used a different one to look up details and comments on the same places you offered. That site was more visually compelling and easier to navigate. Having said that we still used your service -- and our overall experience with you was very good." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

"Truly memorable"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 10 Oct 2014 and 20 Oct 2014
"A very well constructed trip, with great diversity of terrain and a very distinct feel to every camp.
The logistics worked very well as did the advice on what to expect. We would come back for advice on future African trips." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Botswana safari

"My Oct 2014 trip"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 3 Oct 2014 and 15 Oct 2014
"This was our first safari and it exceeded our expectations by a very long margin. The fact that we saw so much wildlife was not down to luck but to on-the-ground expertise by all concerned. The three camps that we visited were all first class and the variation in habitat was ideal.
The advice given to us regarding the choice of country and the compilation of the trip by Nick was first class and the organisation of every element was excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending Expert Africa to anyone considering a wildlife safari in Africa.
