Africa: Reviews from our travellers

"I don't think that you need to improve anything we were very pleased with our honeymoon, the first week safaris were so good that I cried when I got to Zanzibar as I wanted to go back to Sayari Camp!

You ensured that we had an unforgettable honeymoon, thank you for all your hard work, Joanne Ingle" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 6 on a Tanzania safari

"I'm a terrible winge. Thea thought it was all fantastic & is now depressed. I got a couple of bluebottles off Echo which was educational. So did Andy which cheered me up, except mine wouldn't go down. Off Unguja it was like swimming through clouds of used condoms which were also a bit pricky, so I got spots on my spots. Elies gave me some anti histomine which calmed them down a bit. Also my guts gave out. Luckily everybody else was on honeymoon so mozzies were no problem. Up in Selous we copped some bad patches of tetse which came up very nicely & set off my jelly stings to perfection. Luckily these have all lasted quite well & Ive been able to show the girls in the office. By chance I read the blurb on Rufigi so we shot round Stone town pillaging the cash machines. A suitcase of Tshillings just about covered our bill at Rufigi but we were not prepared for Madze to be back in the 50s too & we just scraped by with a mottly mix of currencies. Richard was not happy. & neither was I. I hate paying real money. Not that Tshillings is real money. When I was a lad you could get a tusker for 3 bob, at Madze its 8124."

"It was a first-class experience - Namibia is a wonderful country and this was a wonderful itinerary to realise it!" Read full review: 31 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"A very enjoyable trip. Selous Impala camp and Magwusi make a very good 'pair'. Four nights was a good time to stay.

Suggestions for improvement:

We, again, enjoed our safari. Everything was as it should be. Unfortunately the prices keep rising." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"Excellent, apart from Sossus Dune Lodge. The distance between the airport and Erongo was a bit much, we thought, after an overnight flight, but Tracy tells me that there is nowhere suitable to stay in between." Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 18 on a Namibia trip

"A fantastic holiday in a great country.

Laundry service was really excellent and did make taking limited luggage very feasible.
It was great that we could drink the water at the Bush Camps and at the Livingstone Hotel.
Great problem buying postcards - we only really found any in Lusaka at the end of our trip.

Suggestions for improvement:

Mention that when going to Shiwa they only take one party at a time, even if it only consists of one person.

Suggest travellers take pens to give to children. Also could take old training shoes to give away or use as part trade for crafts." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"All well organised and no possible critciisms

"We book a fairly complex itinerary involving many flights, locations and activities. This involved being met at airports for transfers all of which went very smoothly thanks to the organisation and efficiency of Lucy and her colleagues at Expert Africa.

One of our activities included white water rafting at Victoria Falls and what a fantastic experience it was, the climb in and out of the gorge is difficult but well worth the effort. Thank you Expert Africa for arranging our fabulous holiday.

Suggestions for improvement:

As our trip was faultless it is difficult to think of any comments." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"Excellent trip. Everything went very smoothly as usual - we did not have to think about connections, being met etc. as Expert Africa had done all that for us. The only issue and it was not much of an issue was the unexpected change from Foxes Safari Camp to Vuma Hills Camp in Mikumi - but it did not affect our overall enjoyment - we knew that if Expert Africa had known about this we would have been told straightaway.

We are often asked why we go to more than one camp in an area - but each camp offers a very different experience - but we could Safari for much longer than we did this time and enjoy every single day! We are looking forward to planning our next trip with you! Many thanks

Suggestions for improvement:

We have not come across an issue that would need improvement so nothing to add here - we are very satisfied with all that you offer." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 11 on a Tanzania safari

"Overall, I very much enjoyed my trip to Botswana.

Hopefully I'll have the opportunity to return to the area again!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari
