"Our Rwanda/Botswana trip feedback"
Great itinerary from Expert Africa - good variety of camps and length of stays were perfect.
Our main Expert Africa contact was actually Megan, not Tracy, but she is not in the pick list.
It would have been nice to have received a phone call on returning from the trip to ask us how it had been.
Our guide Theo was excellent and negotiated two fabulous groups for our gorilla treks." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a Botswana safari

"Botswana exceeded expectations"
Frankly there are many tragic stories in well known countries in Africa that have experienced catastrophic losses in population of major species like Rhino, Elephant, Lions, Cheetahs, Painted Dogs and on and on due to poaching and loss of habitat.
We wanted to experience first hand what was different about Botswana.
The good news is Botswana is the "crown jewel" of African wildlife. In a little over two weeks we experienced:
* A healthy pride of 21 lions
* A pack of Painted dogs with 12 adults and 15 puppies!
* Superb bird life
* Multiple Leopards
* Huge, unstressed herds of elephant
* Honey badgers, Bat-eared fox, genets, hyenas and pups...
All that and people who were kind and gracious to us at every turn.
It was so great we are already scheduling our next safari to Botswana." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Botswana safari

We saw and experienced and met some great people and visited some fantastic camps!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Botswana safari
"Great experience. Would love to go back !"
Very much appreciated that service was also excellent while getting to and getting out of the actual camp. Excellent planning, coordination, attention to detail, and execution.
Staying at Khwai was the very highlight of our trip to South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
One very heartfelt request: Please work as much as you can to keep Kwhai Tented Camp on the "more" affordable side of prices. Specially considering that they will go through a major camp remodelling. Hopefully their prices will not be in the future as high as other camps nearby.
They are a great experience at a considerably more affordable price. I will definitely consider going back at a simmilar price.
Finally: Lucy Copson was great !!!!! Our trip was possible thanks to all her great work, knowledge and patience with our planning and requests. Congrats and thank-you very much Lucy. You made me and my family very happy with this fantastic trip!" Read full review: 3 nights in Africa; 3 on a Botswana safari
