"This whole trip was a dream from start to end and exceeded expectations (which were pretty high in the first place)

Excellent pre-planning, advice and service from Expert Africa. The web site and literature are very comprehensive and well presented and the reality most certainly didn't disappoint.

Other destinations in Africa have been added to the never diminishing wish list and we would certainly use them again.

"We had a brilliant holiday. Given our brief to Expert Africa & the short time frame we gave them, they interpreted our requirements very well, - it couldn't have been better.

I had bought the Bradt guide to Namibia a few months before the trip & was very impressed with the content hence the main reason I chose Expert Africa. It is the best guide book I have read in recent years & would highly recommend it.
The 'Notes to Travellers' provided with the itinerary was great.

Other travellers reviews were also interesting and helpful.

We will certainly use them again.

"The trip was very productive from a wildlife viewing and photographic point of view.

I was concerned at the state of many of the park roads which seem to be getting worse. If you have to constantly watch the road surface it makes game viewing more difficult.. Again, there seem to be increasing numbers of noisy large coaches/trucks which have a detrimental effect on the animals. facilities etc.

I would like to see indep. tour operators tackle the park service about this and also get them to improve the management of lodges within the park." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"Thank you for organising such a brilliant trip for us.
Every single thing that you arranged ran smoothly - many thanks

We know Africa well, but this was exceptional." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"What made this trip so special was its diverse nature.

Our itinerary was a balance between adventure (self-drive in Botswana and the Caprivi Strip); land- and water-based game and bird viewing; history and culture. All of this using accommodation ranging from the rustic to the luxurious. We always felt comfortable, even in Zimbabwe which was really the wild card.

We would have no hesitation in returning there (though not driving) or recommending it to others. It is a country with great tourism potential which one day will be allowed to flourish." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zimbabwe safari

"We were very pleased indeed with all the arrangement Sabina made for us for this holiday and have since recommended Expert Africa to two couples. Both have already booked with you for visits to Namibia.

We understand that some of the accommodation that Sabina originally wanted to book was not available. Unfortunately we found one of the substitute hotels, Ugab Terrace Lodge, sub standard and not a nice place to stay. We really did not want to be there, the management of the place was very poor.

However we hope to return to Namibia and will certainly use you next time around.

Many thanks for a great holiday and memorable experience." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 20 on a Namibia trip

"We thoroughly enjoyed our journey through northern Namibia and the Caprivi and our two sorties into Botswana.

Our entry to Namibia at Windhoek was very disappointing and time consuming. Immigration there had recently introduced new systems to photograph and fingerprint all arrivals. Perhaps teething problems with the new technology and certainly the small number of officers on duty meant it took us two and a half hours from exiting the plane to enter the country, all while standing in a small hot room.

This delay meant we could not arrive at our next destination in time for it's afternoon game drive. Those that had prepaid would have lost our financially as well as in terms of enjoyment." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip
