"My Sep 2023 trip"
"My Aug 2023 trip"
We have never been anywhere in Africa before so it was very reassuring to have the expertise of Richard ensuring that everything was so organised as well as offering us great advice and answering all our questions.
Everything about this holiday was perfect and Expert Africa deserve a lot of credit for that, selecting and recommending amazing accommodation. The website is also one of the best I have ever used- clean and clear layout, easy to navigate, whilst still being very informative with detailed reviews and information.
I would without a doubt recommend Expert Africa to anyone thinking about booking a holiday to Africa." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari

"My Jul 2023 trip"
Last year we had another amazing vacation, which set the bar very high. And yet, this trip once again exceeded expectations.
The safaris were full of exciting sightings, the people we met--including our fantastic guide Nickson--were warm and professional, the food was outstanding, each detail was thought through.
What a treat.

"My Jun 2023 trip"
Each of the places picked were perfect for us, none were too busy or too "touristy", we were recommended activities that we'd like to do while we were there and things to look out for, and the connections between them were flawless and without stress.
We had a wonderful time of excitement on safari and relaxation on Chale Island. Thank you so much for such an amazing holiday that we will forever cherish." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari
"My Feb 2023 trip"
I did spend a lot of time doing the research and chose the accommodation and plan myself, but ExpertAfrica really pulled it together with the best competitive quote and made sure things were seamless whilst we were out there." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Kenya safari

A single sheet (as a pdf) with pictures of all mammals you could see. This could be attached to the wildlife survey. There was a poster on the wall at the Northern White Rhino sanctuary in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Kenya safari
"Jan 2023 - Fantastic trip."
We saw some amazing game and were spoilt throughout. The Kenyan people are wonderful and the country is world leading in several areas - such as the long term ban on hunting and the high penalties for poaching which has curtailed such practices. The private conservancies provide an exclusive experience and carry out best practices in game conservation as well as getting buy in from local tribes by ensuring they are compensated and by ensuring traditional grazing can continue but subject to restrictions.
Our one negative comment on Kenya is how the departure experience (arrival is fine) at Nairobi international airport lets the country down - the queues for passport control and the four security scans are excruciatingly long and mis-managed (on airport perimeter arrival, to enter the terminal, at security and again at the gate!!). There were no queues for the BA flight check in and we had fast track status and it took us 1 hour 40 minutes of queuing to get through.
We spoke to a man traveling on a different airline (there were some huge check in queues for other airlines) and the whole process took him 4.5 hours. Our flight was delayed 40 minutes waiting for some passengers. The terminal is too small for the amount of flights and there aren't enough staff. Arrive 3 hours before flying as a minimum.

None - absolute first class service from beginning to end.
