Loved every second!
Kenya between 10 Sep 2017 and 20 Sep 2017
"I would highly recommend booking your trip to Africa with Expert Africa - everything from the moment we stepped off our flight to the moment we got back was like clockwork. All pick ups were as planned, and we didn't have to worry about anything. Even when our flight was delayed due to weather. our car was still waiting for us patiently at the other end when we finally made it.
The overall experience on our trip was wonderful - Little Governors camp was a delight. You have to get to the camp by a little boat across the river (takes about 30 seconds) but I would flag it for people who are perhaps not physically able to walk up and down stairs really easily - there aren't many stairs, and the boat is easy to get on and off, but it does require a little agility!
The camp itself if pristine, the staff are lovely and the drivers are such experts at what they do. We say ALL of the Big Five, including the leopard, which was the whole reason we wanted to go on safari again. Our drive, Colin, was so patient and persevered through our constant requests to 'please find us a leopard' and eventually found one for us. Amazing. The food at the camp is really great, and they even provide a water drinking tap in our rooms.
The hotel and beach at Diani were also brilliant - really clean and nice rooms, and great food at the restaurant. Would recommend the beach restaurant over their fine dining one, only because it has a bit more atmosphere. However, there are little Bush Babies that visit the fine Dining restaurant, which is quite nice! The weather was wonderful, and the beach really beautiful - just expect to be chased into the sea by the people on the beach trying to sell you their goods!
Loved our holiday and can't recommend Expert Africa highly enough. Thank you James! Can we go back now please!?"

Little Governors' Camp
"Fabulous Safari Experience"
4 nights
Arrived

"Absolutely loved every part of this camp, from the boat ride across to the camp, to the wake up call at 6am with tea and coffee delivered to our room, to our expert safari guide, and the beautiful camp as a location. The rooms, and public areas were perfect, and really looked after well. The staff on camp looking after us, including the staff patrolling during the night so that we were safe from any wildlife, were really brilliant - so friendly, attentive and efficient.
The lunches were brilliant, and dinners also really nice. We loved our safari guide too, who found us all the animals we wanted to see and showed a huge amount of expertise and experience at spotting animals.
Couldn't recommend the Little Governors any more!!"

The Sands At Nomad
"The Sands At Nomad review"

Arrived

"Really lovely hotel - we stayed in a superior Ocean View room which was really clean, and looked after. The beds were a little hard, but that is the only thing I could fault!
The beach and pool were lovely, and the weather great. The half board option was great, and there was a lovely selection of food to choose from. We could decide whether we wanted lunch or dinner which was great as it meant we could go out for dinner nearby if we chose to.
Overall, a lovely stay."
