"Excellent trip"
I visited Zambia between 7 Aug 2013 and 19 Aug 2013
"Our trip was excellent. Eleanor Dunkels had given us excellent advice. On a number of occasions we commented how the order of the different parts of the trip was just right. Going to Kaingo before Bushcamp was a great order as we had never been on safari before - I think we needed the 'stepping stone' of Kaingo before going right into the bush. Going to the Victoria Falls after safari was just right - some rest and relaxation after the safari. Cannot fault anything.

"Our First Trip to Africa/Botswana"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 3 Aug 2013 and 18 Aug 2013
"This was more than anything we could have dreamed or hoped for. Everything was very well organized, professional, and efficiently run by the various camp staffs.
Flight arrangements between the camps and the attention paid by guides and staff was outstanding. Awesome trip.

"Zambia and Botswana - a phenomenal trip!"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 30 Jul 2013 and 7 Aug 2013
"Our trip was phenomenal! I am so glad we booked our safari through Expert Africa. Nick Hobbs spent a great deal of time to understand our expectations and put together an amazing package for us.
We began our journey in Livingstone and then traveled to three camps/lodges in Botswana (Savute, the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park). At each location, we seemed to be staying in prime units with respect to views and privacy and the guides, activities and food were all excellent. Winter in Botswana was a great time to take a safari…pleasant day-time temperatures, no snakes, bugs were minimal and the animals were quite visible in the low foliage.
Before the trip, I was afraid the nights in Botswana would be too cold. The nights and early mornings were indeed crisp, but we dressed accordingly and had a wonderful time." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"Beautiful experience"
I visited Kenya and 1 other country between 20 Jul 2013 and 3 Aug 2013
"We greatly enjoyed our holidays...Mara Camp was superb and our stay at Royal Livingstone was also excellent. Maybe Rovos Rail was not the best choice for a trip with our sons."

"14 Incredible Days in Zambia"
I visited Zambia between 11 Jul 2013 and 25 Jul 2013
"Exceptional. Truly a holiday of a lifetime made extra special, sharing the experiences as a family.
Ellie was fantastically helpful, even going to the trouble of rearranging our itinerary when she realised that our original booking at Shiwa would have been shared with hunters. Undoubtedly this would have marred our experience there and as it was, we were the only guests, so enjoyed the undivided attention of our delightful host and hostess.
Ellie's suggestions made for a very balanced trip and while the emphasis was on safari, both Shiwa and Livingstone provided contrast, interest and excitement!
