My Aug 2015 trip
South Africa and 1 other country between 20 Aug 2015 and 11 Sep 2015
We had a clear idea of the areas we wanted to visit and how long we wanted to spend at each location, but she provided insights and recommendations that improved our schedule. The accommodation recommended by Claire was wonderful and perfectly located at each place.
The trip went very smoothly and we would have no hesitation in recommending Expert Africa and Claire to others."

Ndedema Lodge
"Ndedema Lodge review"
The room was fine, but a bit dingy. The outdoor space immediately outside our room was not an attractive place to sit (unlike some other rooms)."

The staff were very friendly and helpful. They even washed our car (without us asking)!"

Vineyard Hotel
"Vineyard Hotel review"
Unfortunately the air-con didn't seem to have any effect on the temperature."

Bazaruto Lodge
"Bazaruto Lodge review"
During our stay at the lodge, there were only about 6 cabanas that were occupied out of perhaps 30 or so. On our first full day we wanted to relax in and around our cabana. However, a team of three gardeners were digging and replanting the area immediately in front of our cabana. We tried to find out how this would last but as a result of language difficulties and lack senior staff we couldn't get a clear answer and it was suggested that we move to a different cabana, which we did.
Unpacking and then packing is an inconvenience and it didn't seem to us that the maintenance was essential and, if it was, we should have been given a different cabana in the first place. We ended up feeling uncomfortable in that we were given the impression that we had inconvenienced the workers and annoyed the staff."
They were particularly helpful in assisting us booking and arranging excursions, restaurants, taxis etc."
