"Amazing honeymoon road trip adventure!"

I visited Namibia between 16 Feb 2016 and 28 Feb 2016
"Thank you so much to the Expert Africa team, especially Liz for helping plan what was an amazing honeymoon adventure.

We were greeted at the airport by the Wilderness Safari rep, which really put us at ease at the start of our trip. The rep gave us helpful advice and handheld us through the car rental pick up.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

The driving route maps that you provided were incredibly helpful - perhaps one improvement would be providing written instructions in addition to describe the lodge turn-offs (as they are not sign-posted in advance!).

The internet questionnaire mentions a brochure, but i'm not sure what this refers to so I didn't comment." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"Namibia Feb 16"

I visited Namibia between 6 Feb 2016 and 25 Feb 2016
"Generally all the hotels and lodges suggested by EA and we stayed at were very, very good on the whole. It was a good itinerary but some of the drives between stops took longer than we thought they would.

Great views great scenery. Beautiful game-but its not like the Mara or some where like that-because its very different climate." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 19 on a Namibia trip

"3 weeks in Namibia"

I visited Namibia between 5 Feb 2016 and 25 Feb 2016
"Namibia 5th-25th February 2016.

Amazing holiday, we will be back.

Holiday exceeded our expectations in almost every aspect. Stunning varied country. Charming people. Self driving much easier than expected regardless of the 3000km covered. Felt safe and secure at all times, Friendly well stocked garages. The exchange with GDP made this an extremely reasonable holiday.

Highlights.Nice Restaurant, Windhoek. Wolwedans Lodge. Anchors Restaurant, Walvis Bay. Doro Nawas. 3hr old baby elephant.
Lion kill, Hobatere. For comfort we recommend, Ongava, Musharraf & Okonjima Lodges. Grootberg was a disappointment and Oyster Box let down by it's staff." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 19 on a Namibia trip

"Great trip"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 16 Jan 2016 and 14 Feb 2016
"We had a super 3 weeks driving ourselves around Namibia basically staying 2 nights in each location. We really liked the country, the people, the scenery and it has a very good infrastructure of roads and places to stay at.

Maruska really helped to organise the whole trip very efficiently. I also found the website to be very useful to prepare the trip

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Not really. I was very happy with everything (except the Ford Ranger vehicle)." Read full review: 29 nights in Africa; 21 on a Namibia trip

"Everything went to plan!"

I visited Namibia and 3 other countries between 4 Jan 2016 and 5 Feb 2016
"We had a complicated itinerary lasting just over a month and taking in everything from mountain gorillas in Rwanda to desert rhinos in Namibia.

Expert Africa lived up to their name and advised on the best itinerary, booked everything including most of the more important treks and tours, the guide in Rwanda and the self-drive 4x4 in Namibia and of course flights. We started with a thick book of vouchers with a lot of scope for things not to work. In the event every single booking worked perfectly, the itinerary was reasonably easy to keep to and we had an absolutely wonderful and memorable trip staying without exception at interesting and comfortable hotels and lodges.

Thanks again Tracy for organising it for us!.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Just keep up the good work! We will be back!

It would be good to have more transparency on the costs of the trip - i.e. a breakdown of how the trip was costed so we knew the relative costs of different hotels and lodges. When reporting on the different places we stayed we were uncertain as to how their costs compared and clearly it is not reasonable to expect as much from low cost places as from the most expensive ones.

Lastly a small criticism of this feedback form is that there is no obvious way to navigate back to the beginning other than to click """"back to previous page"""" over and over again. The tabs on the left side bar don't seem to do anything. When two people are filling this in, as in our case, we needed to go backwards and forewords a few times. Otherwise it is a nice form to fill in." Read full review: 32 nights in Africa; 19 on a Namibia trip

"Exceptional trip"

I visited Namibia between 26 Dec 2015 and 16 Jan 2016
"We had a truly amazing 3 week trip through Namibia. We were really happy to have chosen a self drive and felt perfectly safe and in control at all times. The views and vastness are indescribable and the places we stayed at were amazing and different each time. Our highlights were Hoanib in the Skeleton Coast, Fish River Lodge and watching the sun rise over Sossusvlei.

The weather in January was perfectly fine and we only had rain 1-2 at night. However as the rains had come, the animals in Etosha were less visible. Driving was also fairly straightforward.

Overall, very well organized by Tracy and we definitely hope to go back again!" Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 20 on a Namibia trip

"Holiday of a lifetime!"

I visited Namibia between 19 Dec 2015 and 2 Jan 2016
"Our trip to Namibia was the most amazing holiday of a lifetime it felt like a really special adventure and such good value for money.

Almost everything about the trip organised by Expert Africa was brilliant (except for our last night :( ) the lodges, food and trips were all brilliant.

Namibia itself surpassed our expectations, the scenery was breathtaking, the people wonderfully friendly and we always felt safe throughout our travels.

We have been recommending Namibia and Expert Africa to everyone we meet and have already passed on the new brochure to friends who are interested.

I hope we can have another holiday with Expert Africa in the near future - where will we go next time!?" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip
