"My Aug 2023 trip"

I visited Namibia and 2 other countries between 31 Aug 2023 and 19 Sep 2023
"A trip of a lifetime. Namibia and Botswana were different but spectacular in their own ways.

I saw much more wildlife than I expected and so much of it close to. The scenery, sunrises and sunsets were glorious and I feel that I have experienced a proper African safari.

The lodges were excellent with all the facilities I could have wanted. What made the trip so special was the quality of the staff everywhere I went. They were friendly, professional and keen to show their countries at their best. They were fabulous ambassadors for Africa as a whole.

Thank you for arranging such a wonderful experience." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"My Aug 2023 trip"

I visited Zimbabwe between 25 Aug 2023 and 4 Sep 2023
"I loved Zimbabwe and we had a superb safari with great accommodation and animal viewings. Everything was seamless.

My son and I had the luxury of our own guide and jeep for most of our outings. We found the more experienced guides to be the best and most enthusiastic.

I have used Expert Africa for quite a few safari trips and each has been superb." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Jul 2023 trip"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 26 Jul 2023 and 5 Aug 2023
"Our second trip with Expert Africa and it certainly lived up to expectations.

Lucy put together a great itinerary for Victoria Falls and Boswana with a variety of (very nice) accommodations, activities and modes of transfer between destinations and camps, including a boat transfer. The trip went very well, was totally absorbing, and we were delighted with our wildlife sightings, especially the wild dogs!" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"Our Jun 2023 trip"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 22 Jun 2023 and 4 Jul 2023
"What a wonderful trip! Claire was a pleasure to work with, especially since we planned everything so close to our departure. We only had 12 nights but once we agreed on where we going to spend the time, Claire was able to suggest 3 wonderful lodges to stay out and to arrange all the ground transport which all worked flawlessly. Everyone was careful to make sure that we were safely passed to the next transport van/driver and to assist us going through the many immigration offices that we went through.

Claire made all of this seem effortless and she was very responsive to the questions that I posed to her before we left.

This was our 5th sub-saharan trip and it was so full of great experiences, people, animals and culture! We really felt like we were gone much longer than the short time that we had available. We felt that we made the most of our time and got a good sense of the different places we were able to visit.

Bravo Expert Africa. We will recommend you to our family and friends!" Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 3 on a Botswana safari

"My Jun 2023 trip"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 6 Jun 2023 and 17 Jun 2023
"The clue's in the title. The expertise of Expert Africa shone through, from the advice of Megan Green, to the knowledge of guides Andrew Harkness, Josiah of Splash and Lagoon's Spenser to the training and commitment of camp staff to the cheerful professionalism of the Mack Air pilots.

Everyone went the extra mile to ensure this was a uniquely memorable experience for a seventy year old who's had his fair share of those in the past.

If you want to feel it's good to be alive give it a go under those enthralling Botswana skies.

One small piece of advice - when the sun's not around it gets very cold. Thermals, hat and gloves are useful supplements to the ubiquitous bush baby hot water bottles and ponchos." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"My Jun 2023 trip"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 4 Jun 2023 and 21 Jun 2023
"Our second holiday with Expert Africa. Our trip to Botswana was expensive but it was just magic, arranged with great attention to detail.

Botswana is an incredible country to visit. I have never felt so welcome and well cared for anywhere else. All the staff and guides were friendly and wanted guests to feel at home. Game viewing is in small groups with a high level of personal service you just don't get elsewhere, and there is plenty of wildlife to see. Our guides were well trained, provided a lot of information and were always happy to answer questions. Most importantly, we always felt safe, despite getting very close to many animals. The guides even know the best way to manoeuvre and position vehicles, so photographers get the best view possible.

This was our third safari holiday and the best. Botswana definitely deserves it reputation as the best safari location.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Just keep up the high standard you have set!" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 13 on a Botswana safari
