"This was a special trip for us as a family and Tracy put together some really great alternatives in order to make our timings work. Each country was different and immaculately planned. The attention to detail and our particular needs was expertly handled and the suggestions given to us were all perfectly matched.
This trip was fabulous, it will be a memory which never fades." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 5 on a Mozambique holiday

"I think we suffered a little as Nick had left the company and Lucy had picked up our trip at a later stage. The itinerary details could have been better and were a little sparse." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari

"This was another well organised and excellent safari from Expert Africa. Yet again their expertise and advice on where to go within Zimbabwe proved to be correct. The camps and activities were exacly as descrived and while the game viewing was not possibly as good as we have experienced elsewhere, that's not EAs fault, and we know only too well that the wildlife do not always co-operate.

Nick Scott handled the vast majority of our queries and booking although Claire took over towards the end as Nick had left the company.

We would not look elsewhere when booking a trip to southern Africa and would heartily reccommend them to anyone considering a trip to that region.

We can't think of anything that we could fault with, just keep providing the same wonderful service." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari

"overall experience was very good. we had a great time and saw all the wildlife we had hoped to see and more.

our only comment is that our original idea of starting at little kwara and finishing at savuti before the river boat would have been better. after nine days of jeep safaris any down time would have been better at savuti as you could watch wildlife at the waterhole. we think this would have worked better for us but may not suit other people."

"We had a fabulous trip with no disappointments at every stage. The trip was very varied with a range of different excellent game viewing in different environments. The staff everywhere were welcoming with the best trained being the And Beyond staff. The quality of the game viewing ( e.g. three separate lion kills!) was exceptional. In addition to game drives the most memorable and instructive activities were the photographic safari on the Chobe, bush walk and star gazing in the Kalahari.

I do think that the flora aspect of these places are a resource to be developed as their was little information on them unless one asked questions. Premises should label plants important to the animals and the community as it is part of the narrative of the environment.

We would like to thank Lucy Copson for the time and trouble she took to tailor a Safari that met our needs which resulted in two very happy travelers!

We would be happy to recommend Expert Africa to anyone wanting to visit Botswana." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari

"Great experience, the whole trip was very well organised and I have already recommended you to friends.

The team member who helped us was Nick Hobbs but I had to select someone below and he isn't named so I also had contact with James." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Outstanding in every respect

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

They only thing which took us by surprise was how cold it was in Hwange, particularly in an open vehicle in the early morning and evening. An really warm jacket, gloves and headgear such as a beanie would be things I would pack next time - but perhaps I missed that advice." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari

"This was definitely a trip of a lifetime.

We had such a good time we will be looking to do something similar again.

We have both travelled to several areas in Southern Africa and this has to be the easiest trip we have arranged, keep it up." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari
