Africa: Reviews from our travellers
Latest news: unedited reviews from Expert Africa's most recent travellers
"My Feb 2024 trip"
I did not enjoy the two middle camps, and apart from the last camp the volume of plains and other game was sparse. We have been to many countries in the area through your company, and others. We have also been to Mara and other Kenya areas many years ago.
This was not our best trip with you." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

We couldn't fault any aspects of our trip, the service, or our overall experience.
Not having spotted a leopard, we have every incentive to come back!

No. Having used other agents in Africa, we rated Expert Africa the best we have used." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari

We were taken care of from the moment we arrived to the moment we departed.
Did not have to worry about a thing and the logistics of the trip were executed fantastically, even with the hiccup of a broken down vehicle.

The entire trip was brilliant and Richard was very helpful in answering any questions that we had." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

The only slight negative was our experience with Fisherman travel in Zanzibar. On arrival at the airport noone was waiting with a board to greet us but a guy with a Breezes sign for another company helped us find them. The rep was then half an hour late to meet with us on our first day which would have put us off booking experiences with them.
For our transfer back we got told two different times and when we queried it with Yusuf via WhatsApp the time he told us ended up being the incorrect one, however we got to the airport fine. None of them were big issues but it is the only part of our trip we could have improved.
Just a thank you for all the help and advice in booking our trip. I was incredibly nervous about it but having all the comprehensive back ups in place through you really helped. I've already recommend you to a couple of colleagues.

The two "cat" related lodges Okonjima Bush Camp and Cheetah View Lodge were interesting and worth visiting. I spent 6 days at Cheetah View Lodge, 3 days at both lodges would have been sufficient.
Olive Grove Guesthouse and Ilala Lodge were repeat visits and I enjoyed both.
The disappointment of the tour was the Pangolin Photo Tour. It should have been excellent but the combination of an inexperienced Photo Host and poor drivers at the Ker and Downey camps was not effective. I would recommend the Chobe River as a wildlife photography site, however, I would be less enthusiastic about Pangolin Tour Company unless you were assured of an experienced photo host. The two Ker and Downey camps were OK, however, I've stayed in better camps in the Moremi and Kalahari areas." Read full review: 33 nights in Africa; 19 on a Namibia trip
"This was truly very special!"
"My Feb 2024 trip to Kenya "
We had plenty of time at each camp to see the best of the local wildlife.
The final stop at Emakoko was worth every penny." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

Tanzania is a beautiful country with a lot of culture, wildlife, and birds.
The strict rules about walking away from camp are quite different, but it is because of the dangerous animals." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari
