"Fabulous road trip"
Top marks to Josh for his overall efficiency and very engaging personality. It was always a pleasure chatting to him and nothing was too much trouble.

To be honest I'm finding it difficult to suggest anything and that is because everything was perfect. The service we received from yourselves was exceptional and I say this as someone (not trying to sound big headed) who has travelled a lot since I began in 1973 ! Just keep up the good work. I'll be back !
Just one small point. I don't know what is happening with the proposed newsletter which I signed up for but I would recommend that you get it up and running as a priority. I think this is an ideal way of keeping past customers informed and a very effective way of getting new ones." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 15 on a Namibia trip

"Our November 2017 Namibia trip"
The planning of our trip worked very well for us although one night less in Swakopmund and one night more somewhere else would have been perfect." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 18 on a Namibia trip
"Namibia made easy!"
In previous trips to Namibia we had booked everything ourselves: flights, car hire and accommodation. It was great to be relieved of these tasks and to know that Expert Africa staff had visited and reviewed all the accommodation. The voucher system worked well and there were no unpleasant surprises apart from Bagatelle.
Eningu and Erongo remain our favourite lodges. Bullsport is the best place for varied walking and the Cornerstone Guesthouse gets "the attention to detail" prize. The staff at Cape Cross Lodge deserve special commendation for being so helpful and friendly. Thanks again to Expert Africa for yet another great holiday in Africa.

"Namibia 2017 Visit by McNaught"
I had wanted to drive the Skeleton coast, which we achieved. I must say the experience is not one I would really want to repeat, but I'm glad I did it just to discover what real desolation looks like.
People every where so friendly. Swakopmund is an interesting spot, but damned cold when we were there in Sept.
I preferred our trips to the Etosha, and the Fish river, but one can't fairly compare with this trip. Experiences were totally different" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip
"Sk Coast Safari trip"
But if this was my only gripe, I am surely doomed! Whizzing over the country at no more than 150ft in the air one stays in touch with the land, but gleans a unique perspective.
Guided by Bertus’ infinite knowledge of his land, it’s possibly our most riveting African adventure yet." Read full review: 5 nights in Africa; 5 on a Namibia trip
"Our trip to Namibia 2017"
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.

"My Sep 2017 trip"
"Namibia trip Sept 2017"
Everything was organised extremely well, with no problems of logistics, and the experience I obtained of Namibia was varied and consistently interesting. All the lodges were of a very good standard, with comfortable facilities and good quality food - as, indeed, I would have expected, given the overall cost.
The constant moving around was, inevitably, somewhat wearing by the latter stages, but this was an unavoidable element of this type of trip which attempts to cover a significant amount of ground. And, by the end, I felt I had acquired some satisfying insight into the country and its cultures, even if a trip of this nature can never hope to do much more than scratch the surface."
