Reviews of safaris to Caprivi Strip
Caprivi Strip verified traveller reviews of the camps and lodges we've hand picked in the Caprivi.
"Windhoek- Caprivi - Livingstone"
Josh clearly explained to me the type of trip we were booked on, particularly that we were not including some of the major game parks, so we were very clear on what we would be experiencing and he sent me a new map free of charge when we found a minor mistake on the first one.
I'm impressed with the service by both Expert Africa and your local agents. Your instructions/information are excellent.
Minor points are raised where applicable in the accommodation reviews, but they in no way spoilt our trip.

Other than the points raised above, no." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 8 on a Namibia trip
"February kalahari/Chobe Trip"
We were thrilled.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Expert Africa should add some images to both brochure and website to give people an even better idea of camps and more to look forward to." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"Im lost for adjectives.....'"
I was so impressed given the logistics that everything organised by Expert Africa went so well... not one hiccup or delay or balls up." Read full review: 24 nights in Africa; 3 on a Botswana safari
"Excellent trip altogether"
Our mistake perhaps was trying to do so much in 28 days, we could have done with a couple of 3 day breaks as we got very tired with so much chopping & changing.
Also when trying to stipulate & stick to our budget we ended up with a lot of the venues with only B&B & not half board which meant that overall we ended up spending a lot more than we had planned." Read full review: 28 nights in Africa; 27 on a Namibia trip
"Our trip was absolutely one of the best!"
We also ended the holiday with a self-organised further 3 days in Kruger in South Africa, spending time and seeing incredible animals there too, with our friends from Cape Town, so in its entirety our holiday was by far one of the best we have ever had in this part of the world.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Keep doing the good job.
And - although more on the joking side - perhaps advise in more detail customers who plan to drive in Botswana about the speed limits and how strictly they are checked (and penalised!) by the Botswana police. Also, worth advising that sometimes the speed limit will be reduced from 120 to 60 in a very short distance which almost can make it impossible to get under 60 - I was done for this although doing only 67, had my licence retained (in Gumari) while I drove to the cash machine to extract Pula to pay the fine. And the potholes on Botswana roads - this was something I have never seen before and so worth tipping off the drivers to pay really close attention to them, as they can be really dangerous if you are not careful!"

"A great trip - thoroughly well organised"
Expert Africa listened well, came up with a good itinerary first up and put us in the type of camps that we really like. You can't ask for more than that." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari
"my African experience"
"Namibia 2017"
Tracey was very helpful throughout and her choices were sound.
3 lodges in close proximity in the Etendeka area were perhaps unnecessary, although all did bring something different.
The few days layover in Swakopmund at the end were just the thing." Read full review: 25 nights in Africa; 25 on a Namibia trip
"2017 trip"
"The best way to see Africa"
Every single thing that you arranged ran smoothly - many thanks
We know Africa well, but this was exceptional." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip
