"My Jun 2014 trip"

I visited Namibia between 21 Jun 2014 and 3 Jul 2014
"It was problem free from beginning to end and different from anything else we have done in Southern Africa before so achieved our aim.

It was good to be able to leave some bags in the Wilderness Safari office in Windhoek, where we received a great welcome and good service." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"Another trip of a lifetime!!"

I visited Namibia between 7 Jun 2014 and 6 Jul 2014
"Our trip to Namibia was stunning and more than we could have hoped for. We can't thank Expert Africa enough for making our limited budget go as far as it did! Sabina managed to arrange some outstanding accomodation for us.

Everywhere we went it was noticeable that the lodge owners had only good things to say about Expert Africa and your handling agents in Southern Africa, (Wilderness Safari's?)

I would just to to say thank you so much for organising our trip. We hope to be in touch again soon to arrange another adventure!!!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Keep up the good work. You clearly have a good reputation in Southern Africa so you must be doing something right." Read full review: 29 nights in Africa; 25 on a Namibia trip

"My Jun 2014 trip"

I visited Namibia between 5 Jun 2014 and 26 Jun 2014
"We had an amazing time. All the arrangements worked well. The accommodation was of a high standard and we were very impressed by the friend and efficient service that we met everywhere we travelled. We were so pleased you highly recommended a spare wheel as we don't know how we would have coped without it. Some of the days required a lot of driving over gravel roads which would not be for the faint hearted. Shame some of the money being spent on widening the road near Windhoek is not being used to upgrade the tourist route to Seisriem. However, that is not the fault of Expert Africa. We have already recommended your company to friends and are full of praise for your website which gave us all the information we needed in order to put the trip together."

"A good holiday"

I visited Namibia between 3 Jun 2014 and 19 Jun 2014
"Chris McIntyre's book was excellent. We found it very useful and wished we had access to it before planning out trip as we would have made some changes to our itenery. In retrospect, we would have preferred a different camp in Damaraland or even taken a different route to Etosha. While in Etosha, we found Chris McIntyre's book invaluable, especially his advice on waterholes and best places to see wildlife.

We were incredibly lucky to see 12 or more rhinos gathered at the waterhole in Okaukuejo one night. We were also lucky to see a cheetah and cub and catch a glimpse of a leopard. However, we had no lion sightings which is a pity as were keen to see Namibian lions.

As for planning, if we had stated rather than implied that we were keen wildlife photographers we wonder if our route would have been different? We also wish we had stayed at Namutoni camp instead of Mushara camp as this would have given is additional wildlife viewing time before and after sunset.

Angela has been very efficient and helpful throughout the booking process and we are very happy with the service provided by Expert Africa." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"Expert Africa made this a trip to remember!"

I visited Namibia between 26 May 2014 and 24 Jun 2014
"From our first meeting with Sabina we were confident that this very special trip was going to be one to remember. She quickly realised what we wanted from the trip and developed an itinerary which met or surpassed our expectations.

Since our return, Sabina has been quick to help resolve a couple of minor issues.

We are delighted with the quality of service provided by Expert Africa and their staff and are more than happy to recommend them to anyone making their first visit to Namibia.

We found the Bradt guides to be very informative and accurate - there was not much we wanted to know that was not contained within their pages. By the way, contrary to advice given, $200 notes were accepted everywhere!

"Our May 2014 trip"

I visited Namibia between 18 May 2014 and 3 Jun 2014
"Excellent trip loved it.

Distances longer than expected - along very poor roads in many instances. Would have been useful to know which were gravel or tarmac. Some roads very bad for our VW Polo car. Thus very long journeys- yes I know it's Africa! Not sure whether a larger car would have helped but fellow travellers thought so

Nice and friendly Namibians. Very clean and comfortable accommodations everywhere.

Petrol very cheap!" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"Our trip to Namibia/Botswana/ Vic falls Zimb"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 13 May 2014 and 2 Jun 2014
"From the very beginning over a year ago when I contacted expert Africa everything has been fantastic.

Initially Saskia and then Maruska in the New Zealand office went out of their way to help me plan and co- ordinate the trip. Hundreds of emails later we had our trip, and what a fantastic trip it was, would not have changed anything. Everything was totally stress free and exceeded our expectations.

Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to go to that part of Africa, and highly recommend expert Africa to arrange for you
