"My Sep 2019 trip"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 18 Sep 2019 and 6 Oct 2019
"We had a full-on holiday in South Africa and Zambia with 9 flights and 7 different locations. We had two safari experiences that complemented each other perfectly.

Tongabezi as a base to see the Victoria Falls was great and a perfect way to end our holiday.

Everything went as planned without a hitch of any kind - a real tribute to professional organisation. Many thanks!" Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 6 on a Zambia safari

"It met and exceeded our expectations.

All the accommodation was larger in real life than the photos suggest. It was all well maintained and presented.

"My Jan 2019 trip"

I visited South Africa between 28 Jan 2019 and 9 Feb 2019
"Our Expert Africa trip could not have been bettered. Our contact Megan was brilliant, very knowledgeable and helpful.
it really did feel tailor made for us and Chris McIntyre - the MD - clearly took into account our personal preferences when he initially suggested an outline for our trip before handing us over into Megan's very capable hands to fine tune the details and book us in.

We will definitely be returning to South Africa for another holiday, what an awesome country - needless to say we will not hesitate to ask Expert Africa to plan it all for us, safe in the knowledge that another awesome holiday awaits us!"

"SA"

I visited South Africa between 13 Oct 2018 and 28 Oct 2018
"Exceptional family celebration with everything perfect although the time to connect from BA to S.A. airlines too tight to be comfortable. Although landing on time and luggage quickly through unless we had not contacted a Cape Town airport official there was no way we would have made the S.A. flight. We were last on the flight. I think assistance should be offered to others in the future !" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a South Africa trip

"Brilliant 2 week holiday"

I visited South Africa between 23 Mar 2018 and 7 Apr 2018
"We had a fanstastic two weeks in South Africa, with about the right amount of time in each place apart from Swelledam. We enjoyed various activities in Cape Town including the botanical gardens, cape point, kayaking at simons town, visiting Stellenbosch, table mountain etc. We had a lovely meal at the Hussar Grill near the hotel aswell. We would have preferred less time in Swellendam but this may not have been helped by the rainy weather we had while there. We really enjoyed Plett which has lots of different activities to do from walking on Robberg Peninsula, visiting various animal parks and Knysna. Despite the great fire less than a year ago everything was up and running, and the views were fantastic. The safari was a great way to end the holiday and the lodge was a lovely bit of luxury to finish the trip." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a South Africa trip

"A really special family trip"

I visited South Africa between 10 Nov 2017 and 26 Nov 2017
"It was amazing, easily one of the best trips we've ever been on.

The fact that we could do it with our small kids made it all the more special, and it was certainly a lot easier than we expected/feared.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

This trip has really made us interested other parts of South Africa as well.

It would be great if you could expand your coverage of the country. Perhaps in 2019 we can help you 'test' some lodges :)" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a South Africa trip
