Reviews of safaris to Moremi Game Reserve
300 holiday reviews from our travellers of holidays which include Moremi.
"A wonderful safari"
We would certainly recommend anyone who is prepared to accept the relatively basic facilities of a mobile camp to spend some time with Andrew Harkness who was a relaxed, informative and very knowledgeable guide. We felt that nothing that could have been seen was missed.
The bush walk with Scoupe at Tau Pan was the highlight of our stay there.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
The out of hours service was excellent when we ran into trouble with our flight from London on the outward journey as it was delayed by three hours putting our connection in Johannesburg at risk. As it happened we made it with seconds to spare. Nevertheless it was very reassuring to be able to speak to someone late at night even though we had made the booking ourselves."

"Botswana Rocks!"
We learnt a few words of Setswana which was really appreciated.
This is a fascinating country, if you go ask about the history, Batswana are very proud of their country.
This trip was put together by Sarah Glyde who was very helpful, patient and knowledgeable.
Our first trip with Expert Africa and we would really recommend them." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Botswana safari
"Our great Namibia and Botswana adventure"
It started with us trying to arrange everything but soon found it difficult to determine which location/accommodation would be "right" for us. Luckily, we came in contact with Expert Africa and the help and recommendations that were given were excellent and in the end, they arranged all the accommodations (save one), the safaris and the air charter. Their guidance on length of stay was very helpful and the resorts, hotels and safaris proved to be excellent and enjoyed by all.
We were guided by Sabina for the Namibia portion and Lucy for the Botswana portion and were rewarded with prompt responses and suggestions to our many questions.
Highly recommend them." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 5 on a Botswana safari

Carry on the good work.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your company to others wanting a similar Africa experience. Thank you very much!!" Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"My Mar 2017 trip"
This was an outstanding trip and my first visit to Botswana. We knew we were taking a risk going towards the end of the rainy season but that we would also see more birds at that time. In the event we had great weather throughout and our drivers also coped with the consequence of the previous flooding. We never got stuck!
In my opinion, with Nick Hobbs input, Mark put together the perfect trip for us. We are very experienced travellers, with a keen and developed interest in the natural world, natural sciences, the environment and exploring new places. We were not there to see the "Big Five" (we did see four of them anyway). We had an unforgettable experience and many, many laughs along the way.
Having been on about 6 weeks of safaris in the past since 1991, i thought this off season trip was also good value for money.
When a problem arose, once we were able to contact you, Chris resolved our issues with an acceptable solution. You cannot ask for more. Well done to him and his team and organisation. I am happy to recommend Expert Africa to others." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Botswana safari
"Botswana Dream Safari"
In the following section, the team member who put our trip together was actually Nick Hobbs; Lucy Copson took over from Nick after he left Expert Africa. My ratings below refer to Nick. Lucy was very helpful and professional in transacting the safari and in dealing with an issue encountered while in Botswana.
Thanks Lucy!" Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Botswana safari
"Botswana at low season"
This included making arrangements for a helicopter lift out of one camp in order not to miss connecting flights (flooded runway).
Fortunately, Mack Air was able to make a short distance landing and takeoff with a regular plane. I'll be back.
Sarah offered two contrasting trip plans which allowed us to choose well in terms of budget and overall comfort. Well done." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 9 on a Botswana safari
"First Class"
Tongabezi simply isn't good enough, thankfully our only interest in that leg of the trip was to see the Victoria Falls so we didn't have to spend too long there." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
