My Sep 2015 trip
Botswana and 1 other country between 11 Sep 2015 and 24 Sep 2015
"We had a wonderful time in both the Victoria Falls area and Botswana.
There were no blips with the organization and all that was expected to happen, happened, and we had no fault to find with it. Any adverse comments in the previous pages [Ed: the individual lodge reviews] are very, very minor ones, but you did ask!
All in all we'd go with Expert Africa again without any doubt."

Muchenje Safari Lodge
"Muchenje Safari Lodge review"
3 nights
Arrived
14 Sep 2015
"Loved this safari lodge. Again staff were delightful and our guide, Rambo, was excellent, patient and knowledgeable. We also enjoyed a very educative early morning walk with Paul. The owners were very helpful as well.
Only slight complaint was that the rooms didn't have much storage space so our bags had to be used as storage, too, which meant they were slightly in the way when the mosquito nets came down at night. If there had been more coat hangers I think we could have disposed more easily of them. But that's a minor complaint! The rest was excellent."

Lagoon Camp
"Lagoon Camp review"
3 nights
Arrived
17 Sep 2015
"Beautiful camp with amazing rooms and again superb staff, Our guide, Carlos, was a mine of information, not only about the wildlife but also about all aspects of Botswana and James was an excellent tracker. Food was, as in the previous one,w onderfully good!
I've put only 'good' for the facilities because there were several blips with the water - we had none when we arrived and when we did get some, it came up black as it has to be pumped from the river. We completely understood the problem, but it was slightly off putting to bathe or shower in black water - and you need to after the dusty safaris in the dry season!"

Little Kwara (Not currently featured by Expert Africa)
"Little Kwara review"
3 nights
Arrived
20 Sep 2015
"Really nothing to find fault with in this camp and again our guide, Woga, and our tracker, T Bone (Not his real name!) were once again excellent.
T Bone was also our skipper on the river cruise to see the stork nursery and was a very competent one!
Food was again very good and the staff helpful and friendly."
