"Fantastic trip"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 14 Nov 2009 and 26 Nov 2009
"We had an amazing trip to Zambia and Botswana, in no small part thanks to Anna and Expert Africa. I don't think that we made Anna's life easy because we did not know where exactly we wanted to go but she really listened to the things that we said we did/didn't want and came up with 3 suggestions for places to stay that were perfect for us. When we had questions about booking a particular camp, Anna answered our questions honestly and we really felt that we knew what we were getting.
This was our second trip with Expert Africa and the things that most impress us are the fact that the people you speak to at Expert Africa really know the reserves and camps and can tell you what they are like and the fact that all of the logistics (flights/transfers etc) work so smoothly. This is not the kind of trip that we would want to organise independently and it is so nice to just be able to turn up and have everything arranged for you.
Thanks Anna for a great holiday!

I visited Zambia between 7 Nov 2009 and 14 Nov 2009

Thank you Claire very much for organizing this memoriable trip for us.

"Zambia/Namibia Trip - Amazing!"
I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 23 Oct 2009 and 16 Nov 2009
"We had an absolutely amazing trip to Zambia and Namibia and a lot of this was thanks to the excellent advice and recommendations from the Expert Africa Staff and the reviews of previous customers on the website.
Everything worked like clockwork and we would definitely use Expert Africa again. Indeed we have already recommended you to a couple of our friends planning Africa holidays....
Suggestions for improvements:
We were very impressed with the service - cannot fault it. It was especially helpful getting notes on the trip, maps etc prior to departure." Read full review: 24 nights in Africa; 6 on a Namibia trip

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 6 Oct 2009 and 21 Oct 2009
"I think we could have done with only 3 locations in Botswana as Chitabe Lediba and Selinda in many ways were quite similar. We will know for next time!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
All went extremely well and efficiently.
Afterwards we spent 2 weeks on our own in South Africa and I felt the difference straight away, in terms of organisation and things going wrong. We had to bribe a policeman to get off a speeding fine, hit a stray tyre on the road, etc etc." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 11 on a Botswana safari

"Overall Expert African views"
I visited Zambia between 5 Oct 2009 and 15 Oct 2009
"There aren't enough superlatives in the dictionary to describe how good this holiday was. we've never done anything like it before, but sincereley hope we will again, and if we do will come straight back to Expert Africa.
Everything worked like clockwork, the people were friendly and efficient, and we were treated like royalty everywhere we went. Thank you so much.

Not really! As close to a perfect holiday as we've ever experienced." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"A great trip"
I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 28 Sep 2009 and 15 Oct 2009
"We really loved our trip and would not hesitate to use Expert Africa again or to recommend you. We really appreciate the extra advice you gave us when planning our trip.
It would be handy on the itinerary if more details could be given on transfers for example that the flight from Livingstone to Luangwa was via Lusaka and the approximate length of the onward transfer by jeep - it is good to know what to expect!"

"Zambia/Botswana"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 25 Sep 2009 and 11 Oct 2009
"This was our first safari so it needed to be very special, which it was.
We loved the fact all the camps were different and we didnt know what we were going to experience next which was great. Also glad we went to Victoria Falls first rather than last, as it was good to end up at one of the best camps. 2 weeks was a great amount of time to have-would definitely still like a minimum of 10 days with a selection of 2-3 camps plus maybe a coast/beach trip after next time!"

"South Luangwa with Norman Carr Safaris"
I visited Zambia between 10 Sep 2009 and 18 Sep 2009
"We have always wanted to go on a safari holiday and it has taken several years of planning and saving up to finally do it, but this has definitely been the most enjoyable holiday we have ever had and lived up to all our expectations in every way.
We really wanted to be pampered and spoiled, see all the animals in beautiful surroundings and to see as few other people and vehicles as possible and try and get a feel for Africa. South Luangwa delivered the locations and animals and Norman Carr Safaris was staffed by amazing people and run to a higher standard than we could possibly have hoped for. We would recommend it to anyone and plan to go back ourselves in the future.
