"4th safari to Zimbabwe"
I visited Zimbabwe between 10 Sep 2015 and 25 Sep 2015
"Yet another fantastic safari to Zimbabwe, our fourth to this beautiful country.
We had an amazing time in Matopos, superbly guided by Paul Hubbard.
We had a brilliant time on our mobile safari in Mana Pools, with our excellent guide Mark.
There was an issue with ZimParks double-booking one of our campsites but this was handled on the ground by our guide and Natureways to our satisfaction.
Hopefully we will be able to return again in the not too distant future.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
This was our 6th trip with Expert Africa, with another booked for 2016. We are more than happy with the service you provide." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 3 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Zimbabwe trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 4 Sep 2015 and 16 Sep 2015
"On returning to the UK many people when they asked me about my trip to Zimbabwe wanted to know if it was safe. Yes it is, and the local people are very keen to encourage more tourists to visit. Most of your money goes to ordinary Zimbabweans, and only a small amount to the government.
You will be welcomed wherever you go, especially should you visit any junior schools. More and more lodges are forming partnerships with local people to develop conservancies and concession areas that help to protect wild animals and to provide benefits for local communities."

"My Sep 2014 trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 17 Sep 2014 and 4 Oct 2014
"A fascinating experience, very well organised. we not only experienced high quality game drives but also much more of Zimbabwe as well as meeting a very interesting variety of people both local Zimbabwean and from further afield.
We did feel that our requests had been noted and passed on including our celebratory reason for the trip.
There is no separate subheading for transfers and this was an important aspect of our tour. All drivers were efficient, courteous and friendly with the one exception from NJ to Harare airport as already mentioned." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 15 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Sep 2013 trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 23 Sep 2013 and 5 Oct 2013
"A very enjoyable holiday with the highlight the whole Camp Hwange experience. Victoria Falls was well worth seeing particularly when staying at the Vic Falls Hotel, a lovely old world hotel supplying excellent modern services.With hindsight I would now tailor the trip to include one more night in Camp Hwange and one less in Amalinda.
I am strongly recommending this to my family and hope they can enjoy this experience next year." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Our eleventh Expert Africa experience"
I visited Zimbabwe and 1 other country between 28 Dec 2012 and 12 Jan 2013
"This, our eleventh, trip with Expert Africa was arranged at very short notice. As always EA in general and, in thjis instance, Claire Scott in particular, pulled out all the stops to find an itinerary which worked for us and we were delighted with the results.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We are very impressed by the outcome of the upgrading of the website. And we welcome the addition to the EA portfolio of Kenya, which we are currently actively investigating with an eye to our twelfth EA-arranged trip." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Great Zimbabwe!"
I visited Zimbabwe between 7 Oct 2012 and 22 Oct 2012
"Expert Africa has consistently supported travellers going to Zimbabwe. Why did we wait so long! This was a great trip which gave us a real insight into a complex country and its history. We would encourage other travellers to go.
Everything worked very smoothly in terms of transfers and the camps did not disappoint. We decided not to try and cover too much and spent our time in Hwange, Matopos and Bulawayo which gave us a great mix of experiences. We saw a good range of game, some important historical sites and met a great mix of people. We look forward to going back." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zimbabwe safari
