"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.

"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

"We absolutely loved our time in Zambia. It wasn't just the poor room which disappointed at Kaya Mawa; it just did not live up to what we thought we had booked.

For the future we would take all email correspondence between our agent and us with us - by the time we arrived at the final leg of our holiday we ended up thinking we were wrong. We weren't." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"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." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 5 on a Kenya safari

"Everything worked like clockwork ( except the Lusaka hotel). I was amazed at the high standard of every aspect in the bush and the super staff eveywhere.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Perhaps a different hotel in Lusaka ? I met people who said the Sun Rock was very good. Personally I would prefer an overnight flight both ways." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"Excellent from initial contact to the fine tuning of the final details for our holiday.

Really appreciated the knowledgeable and honest advice.
