"An amazing holiday"

I visited Zambia and 2 other countries between 9 Jul 2014 and 30 Jul 2014
"We would go back to Waterberry and the Ichobezi and do exactly the same things again - one of our best ever holidays. Thank you Tracy for your expertise and for getting us the best rooms! and thank you to Chris for recommending Le Duc.

If we go back to Africa we will of course book it thru you." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 5 on a Zambia safari

"My Jun 2014 trip"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 28 Jun 2014 and 19 Jul 2014
"This was an excellent holiday and very expertly arranged by Expert Africa! Megan was very helpful and efficient throughout.

The safari experience was unforgettable and the Seychelles a lovely relaxing set of islands to visit. Generally everything was of a very high quality and ran like clockwork. The minor glitches were all sorted efficiently and promptly.

We would (and indeed already have) recommend Botswana and the Seychelles to anyone and would especially praise and recommend Expert Africa. Thanks for helping us have a great trip and celebrating a special birthday in style!" Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"My Jun 2014 trip"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 27 Jun 2014 and 16 Jul 2014
"A really enjoyable trip which was made really easy and nearly foolproof by Maruska,s attention to details , prompt replies and advice. We loved our side trip to Victoria Falls.

On the whole the trip was without any major hitches but I doubt that I will go back to Caprivi although I will undoubtably go back to Namibia.

I was shocked at the obvious poverty around the Divindu area and a little surprised at the obvious development and money being spent around Windhoek. I am not being critical as I am a visitor passing through but I do wonder at the lack of industry and therefore the lack of employment. There is a huge abundance of water in the Caprivi and wonder why it is not harvested and used. The weather was fantastic , the people are a charming gentle race keen to help and almost without exception polite. A very happy holiday.

"Exceeded Expectations!!"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 26 Jun 2014 and 11 Jul 2014
"Went with high expectations and they were exceeded. Tracy really worked hard to find the right lodges for us - and they were great. Game viewing was amazing - friend travelled with was on first safari and certainly didn't expect to get so close to wild life and have so many adventures!!

Relaxing 6 nights in Mozambique at Azura were fantastic for rest and luxurious relaxation.
Thank you to everyone involved.

"Botswana Birthday Trip"

I visited Botswana and 3 other countries between 24 Jun 2014 and 14 Jul 2014
"Overall this was a fabulous safari experience for the 5 of us, three being first time safari goers and two of us being experienced safari travellers. The game viewing is stupendous. The abundance of water from the delta makes for a very different Southern Africa Experience.

Great to see so many Betswanas working in the camps.

Food - we would have like to have had more game on the menu but perhaps this is made more difficult now by the hunting ban in Botswana.

We think that the camps/safari industry in Botswana need to invest in providing WiFi in the camps

Overall we would readily recommend this trip and Expert Africa for organising it - there was not a hitch during the whole trip. Thank you Megan

"Epic trip to Botswana & Mozambique 2014"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 29 May 2014 and 2 Jul 2014
"A terrific holiday! We had some amazing experiences and met some lovely people.

We booked a great holiday to Namibia with Tracy Lederer in 2010 and she was the natural choice when we were planning a trip to Botswana. Thank you Tracy for your patience and invaluable help.

I think the feedback should have a category 'Very Good'. It is too big a jump to go from 'Good' to 'Excellent'." Read full review: 34 nights in Africa; 24 on a Botswana safari

"Zigler's 45th Anniversary Safari"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 15 May 2014 and 26 May 2014
"A great once in a lifetime trip. Far exceeded our expectations.

Thank you very much Maruska for putting it all together and your patience in answering our never ending questions.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Recommend that:
- travelers be forewarned about the transfer between Zambia and the Kasane airport.
- travelers mark their battery chargers with highly visible markings so that they are not confused with other charges in a central charging station.

The trip turned out to be fantastic and would highly recommend the use of Expert Safaris for planning and organizing a safari in Botswana." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 8 on a Botswana safari
