"My Dec 2012 trip"

I visited Namibia between 9 Dec 2012 and 22 Dec 2012
"An excellent experience. I felt Angela had given me all the information and advice I needed and it meant the distances travelled weren't too far in one go, the description of all the accomodation had been accurate and we felt we had back up if needed. The emails to let us know about flight times etc made us feel someone was looking after us all through the holiday.The tyre insurance worked perfectly and it was good to have a form to be signed to check the hire car back in with.

We loved all the places you recommended, Turnstone tours were perfect, all the arrangements were in place. We would not hesitate in using Expert Africa again.

Thank you for a wonderful experience in which we feel we learnt a lot about Namibia and ourselves." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip

"A Wonderful Relaxing Experience"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 8 Dec 2012 and 28 Dec 2012
"We are very happy with most of the services and suggestions provided by Expert Africa. The lodge choices were excellent overall. We were also very happy that we decided to follow the recommendation of renting a 4x4. It made the driving much more comfortable and worry-free. Gwynn was a pleasure to work with. She is obviously very knowledgeable and passionate about her home country. The map provided was perfect! We had no problems at all driving ourselves.

I do have to mention two small bumps throughout the process. The first was a problem with the bank transfer from the US. Even though it is clearly explained in the instructions, I wish someone would have made it stand out. There are pages and pages of instructions to read and things are easily overlooked. It would be great if you could have a small list of highlights, including payment instructions. We ended spending over USD$300 to correct the bank transaction problem.

I was also disappointed about our lodging arrangements in the Kalahari. When we first discussed the lodging we were told that we were going to have to stay each one of the three nights at different places because everything was booked. To our surprise, when we arrived in Mata Mata and called !Xaus we were told that they had plenty of rooms available. They told us that they had availability when Expert Africa made our reservations. We ended up losing our entire payment for our night at Mata Mata Rest Camp which was not pleasant." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip

"A wonderful wildlife holiday"

I visited Namibia between 6 Dec 2012 and 23 Dec 2012
"This was one of the best wildlife holidays we have ever had. Certainly some of the places we stayed at were better than others, but overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our trip.

Some of our experiences - tracking rhinos at Desert Rhino Camp, dinner in the Boma at Damaraland Camp, finding elephant shrews at Erongo and tracking leopard and cheetah at Okonjima - have left us with everlasting memories !" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

"November 2012 Namibian Birthday Tour"

I visited Namibia between 17 Nov 2012 and 2 Dec 2012
"Our trip to Namibia was everything we hoped for and more, the country was spectacular and the people were very friendly and willing to share their knowledge. The hotels we chose were excellent and we feel that the advice that we were given on these by Expert Africa helped us to make the best of our limited time in the country. Namibia was a fantastic self drive destination - we really enjoyed being able to do everything under our own steam at our own pace.

When we go again (which I've no doubt we will) we would probably go a month or so earlier, as we were definitely getting in to the rainy season with some rather overcast and even cool days and the absence of concentrated game in Etosha. However we were aware of this when booking and chose our dates to coincide with my wife's birthday. The upside was that it was even quieter than we expected, enabling us to appreciate the solitude of the landscape and get the exclusive treatment from guides and other staff.

We would definitely book with Expert Africa again and would like to pass on our thanks for a wonderfully advised and arranged trip." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"An excellent holiday"

I visited Namibia between 2 Nov 2012 and 18 Nov 2012
"Having visited Namibia twice previously, it is our favourite African holiday destination. On this our third trip we wanted to share the experience with our son & daughter-in-law. The trip was a huge success and we are four very satisfied customers.

Sabina at Expert Africa was really helpful & knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble while we were putting the trip together. The information pack was really useful, all aspects of the tour ran exactly as planned, and lodges & activities specifically recommended by Sabina were first rate.

We will recommend Expert Africa without hesitation." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"My Oct 2012 trip"

I visited Namibia between 25 Oct 2012 and 12 Nov 2012
"Thoroughly enjoyable trip, albeit too hot!! Apparently this was unusual for this time of year. We originally planned to go earlier but were persuaded to go later as it was quieter, but it would have been more comfortable.

We saw much more wildlife than we expected." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 18 on a Namibia trip
