"What a great trip"
Would have no hesitation in recommending Expert Africa to friends" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari
"Overall feedback"
Your questionnaire is too much on the camps/hotels and not enough on the experiences and what you see which are far more important to us. We would go back to each place we stayed and we would certainly use Expert Africa again especially as we initially costed this trip ouselves and found that you offered a good saving and the added comfort of support in the UK and Anna's advice and in depth knowledge of Zambia. We know a number of other clients who say the same about Anna :)
Suggestions to help Expert Africa improve their service: Keep on looking out for camps and lodges that concentrate on wildlife not just creature comforts. Keep prices competitive, keep friendly and knowledgeable staff like Anna. We are very happy - thank you." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari
"Superb African Experience"
Zambia was an excellent choice: The nature is majestic during the wet season, the wildlife superbe. The people in all three places were very professional, knowledgeable, genuinely kind, polite and pleasant. We had a great time!
Suggestions for improvements:
You are doing an excellent job, however, if you wish to expand your services to clientelle outside the UK, you need to examine alternative ways to get your clients to Zambia." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
"Dream Factory"
Everyone seemed out to make it the holiday of a life-time for us. Despite the fact that they are meeting 'first-timers' every day they shared our enjoyment afresh. That's camp staff, guides, transfer drivers, everyone we met. Thanks a million to them all." Read full review: 39 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"Amazing holiday in Tanzania and Zambia"
We were both very pleased we had been advised to go to the Selous and both the camps we visited were absolutely perfect for us. The only mistake we made was in deciding to stay at a beach resort for 4 nights. We are much happier where there are interesting places to potter around and we are keen to try and learn about the places we are visiting.
I think Ellie understood our requirements very well: she did not mind how many times we asked her opinion and never failed to answer our queries.
We used Sunvil last year to go to Chile and Argentina and are pleased that we had the same high standard of service again this year." Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"Namibia and Botswana in Novemer"
It was a lesson to me to research the weather pattern better,and not to be put off by difficulty wih accomodation to push the dates on to a less favourable season
This is not to say that we had a great well organised trip, in which all your arrangemets were well thought out, lodges well selected, and went like clockwork.
We would certainly travel with expert africa again." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip
