"Have recommended you to several friends.

Very impressed by the response by Tracey last Saturday when we missed our flight and had to stay in Joburg for a night. Everyone was informed and the trip round Vic Falls was organised for us so that we could get to see the Falls the same afternoon as we arrived.

"Megan was instrumental in helping us make educated choices in order to ensure that we made the right choices of locations, camps and activities in Botswana to suit our personal desires. One interesting consideration is that we planned to visit Botswana at a time of year that is considered not quite best for seeing wildlife. We were thoroughly satisfied with what we saw and the low density and number of sightings just seemed to make every occasion just more special.

We consider ourselves fortunate that we chose to book with Expert Africa as they briefed and prepared us extremely thoroughly for the trip which resulted in one of the most enjoyable, comfortable and memorable adventures that we have ever experienced and completely in harmony with our tastes and expectations.

We also value Expert Africa's dedication to responsible tourism which helps lessen the impact (and worry) that people such as us cause lasting damage by visiting these remote and wonderfully pristine places." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Botswana safari

"A most enjoyable holiday. The highlights were Rovos, Vic Falls in full flow and the Chobe National Park." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 13 on a South Africa trip

"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.

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

"We had an absolutely superb trip and our family will treasure our memories forever.

We thought it was a very well balance trip, with organised activities balanced with independent travel. Renting a car was a fabulous way to travel around Namibia with a young family and the trip was very well planned with the travel distances very manageable and clear The detailed organisation by Maruska and Saskia made for a seamless and very enjoyable holiday.

Our time with the Bushmen was one of our highlights so thanks for the suggestion and organisation of this part of our adventure.

At times it would have been nice to know if we were going to be travelling on gravel or sealed roads and the map provided didn't seem to differentiate between the two." Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"Good trip thank you Expert Africa and Zimbabwe employees.

Very pleased we travelled at a quiet time of year as it greatly added to the pleasure of the trip, particularly with regard to the game drives." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari

Cant wait to book with you again.

Nope, I have been recommending Expert Africa a lot since coming back, and will be putting it in my blog as well when I get around to finishing it.

Nick Hobbs went above and beyond to help us book our trip *high five*, you rock!" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zimbabwe safari

"We take an international trip every year, and this Africa trip, compared to other trips, was very excellent in that it was culturally different from the other trips that we've taken.

We visited Africa primarily for the safaris and it is the safaris that made the trip memorable. Seeing the animals, in their natural habitats, doing what they normally do, without cages, boundaries, restrictions." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

"We cannot wait to embark on a second safari soonest possible. We would most definitely like to have an experience similar to the one we had with Kwando. The same spirit, not too polished and with emphasis on quality rather than on luxury.

Expert Africa has been attentive to all of our needs and requests. Thanks.
