"The B's from Biggin"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 13 Feb 2009 and 2 Mar 2009
"Our expectations wre totally met and more.

Suggestions for improvement:

we would certainly like to thank Sabina for her help. Having done three trips previously we knew what we wanted and some of Sabina's suggestions turned out to be great." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"Namibia and Botswana in Novemer"

I visited Namibia and 2 other countries between 5 Nov 2008 and 25 Nov 2008
"We made the big mistake of putting the trip back from October to November, with the rains arriving very heavily and promptly. We did experience some pretty spectacular storms which sent the animals into the green bush, we must be among the few people who went to Chobe and didnt see an elephant.

It was a lesson to me to research the weather pattern better,and not to be put off by difficulty wih accomodation to push the dates on to a less favourable season

This is not to say that we had a great well organised trip, in which all your arrangemets were well thought out, lodges well selected, and went like clockwork.

We would certainly travel with expert africa again." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"Our Safari"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 13 Oct 2008 and 25 Oct 2008
"Another great time in Africa, it always fascinates and enthralls us. No problems with any of our arrangements inspite of a fairly convoluted itinerary. If anyone has discovered an effective way of dealing with tetse flies we would appreciate their advice.They were quite a problem on the Lower Zambezi this year!

Apart from the flies our only other grumble was having to pay £75 visa charge each for a 6 hour stay in Zambia while en-route to Namibia,and then being charged again when we returned 5 days later.



No, the service and trip lived up to our expectations." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 6 on a Zambia safari

I visited Namibia between 4 Oct 2008 and 21 Oct 2008
"Our second triip to Namibia and all went well. We are in our late 60s and were a bit concerned about going up to the Caprivi but roads are excellent and nothing to worry us - though if we were to go again I think we would choose a cooler time of year (if there is one) and/or confine ourselves to accommodation with air conditioning.

Two warnings

1. Petrol is evidently a problem beyond Rundu. There was none at Kongola and only 93 octane at Divundu when we needed to fill up for our return journey

2. As we drove from Windhoek to the airport for our return flight a car overtook us and shouted out that we had a flat tyre. I thought the car was driving normally and carried on to the airport parking where our tyres seemed perfectly OK, so I think this was an attempted confidence trick. Unfortunately I failed to get the registration number." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

"Another excellent trip"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 17 Sep 2008 and 9 Oct 2008
"We always enjoy our trips that you organise, but this year, in particular, we felt that it was your influence that got us the choice accommodation sites at the camps and lodges. Especially the Mukwae. We couldn't be so lucky all the time.

We appreciate the time and effort you must put in to find the camps that we would like." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

I visited Namibia between 25 Aug 2008 and 4 Sep 2008
"The accomodations were superb and the locations allowed us maximum game viewing, which was our prime purpose.

Tracy was correct in that we took on more driving than recommended. We were fortunate that we had no car trouble, but it did cause concern in certain areas, particularly in the north." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Namibia trip
