Reviews of safaris to Samburu National Reserve

"An excellent trip.

Only disappointed by the lack of wildlife in the Mara National Park and the lack of atmosphere at Little Governors camp.

All other aspects were, by and large, as we would have hoped." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Kenya safari

"A very enjoyable trip overall.

The variety of areas visited was fantastic and wildlife was really plentiful. Best camp of the trip was without a doubt Kicheche Mara.

Lyndsey at Expert Africa is most obliging. There were a couple of "hiccups" along the way, and I must admit having travelled on many safaris, this was a first for me. Lyndsey kindly followed up on every query I had, and I will certainly book again with Expert Africa.

Expert Africa's level of service is excellent, I honestly cannot think of any suggestions that may improve the trips and services." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 16 on a Kenya safari

"Expert Africa has been our benchmark of knowledge and excellence while planning our African trips for many years - thanks to Chris Macintyre reputation and the quality of information online.

This was our first experience of actually booking a safari with EA and we were happy with the responsiveness, helpful attitude and logistics, but expected a more personalised and expert/first hand experience of the person we talked with.

We hoped for a special, guide-like quality of advice and received a typical safari agent service - good, but not any better than other." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 7 on a Kenya safari

"This is our fourth trip arranged by Expert Africa and we keep coming back because we know that we will always get an excellent holiday.

We feel whoever is arranging our holiday, Lyndsey on this occasion, really listens to what we would like, gives us very helpful suggestions based on personal experience and is happy to give adjusting things until it's perfect!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Kenya safari

"Extremely well organized. Everything ran smoothly. Great locations and overall amazing camps. Only small criticism would be that food is all “western” orientated and camps often had a colonial feel which can jar somewhat.
Having said that, this was the trip of a lifetime. Thoroughly recommend." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 16 on a Kenya safari

"Superb holiday overall.

Had some wildlife sightings we’d not experienced before but a little disappointed not to see more cheetah as this had been the focus for this trip.

However we appreciate that nothing is guaranteed and the other sightings made up for that." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari

"Overall, we enjoyed the trip but unlike our previous visit in 2019 we were disappointed by the amount of people and volume of vehicles on game drives.

The exception was Mara expedition camp." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari

"Living in the U.S. and using a company in London and communicating via email, is a leap of faith that everything will go smoothly and as planned. Expert Africa and Lyndsey have never let me down and every safari they have put together has been an unforgettable experience. Thank you so much! This was my first safari in Kenya and it was incredible. Outstanding guiding throughout. And the camps were all in conservancies, so there were no crowds. The wildlife was abundant and we got really close to elephants and lions. It was absolutely thrilling. Hats off to Lyndsey at Expert Africa who put together this fantastic itinerary.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Lyndsey has put together several safaris over the years. There is nothing to improve upon! My only concern is that Lyndsey might leave Expert Africa!" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 14 on a Kenya safari
