My Sep 2022 trip
Zimbabwe between 14 Sep 2022 and 27 Sep 2022
"This was a trip of a lifetime, made possible by careful and thoughtful planning by Tom.
We would have not experienced something like this if Tom had not made my wife and I extremely confident about the expertise of Expert Africa, and they exceeded our expectations beyond imagination.
Tom and Expert Africa would be my first choice for any trip like this in the future."

Guided tour of Victoria Falls
"Guided tour of Victoria Falls review"
16 Sep 2022 • Afternoon excursion
Our Guide Arthur picked us up from the airport then looked after us brilliantly including walking us round the spectacular falls.
The falls is not only a highlight of the trip, it is one we will recall and value in our lifetime, it took our breath away and so well explained by our guide, simply incredible.

"My wife wanted to see Elephants in the wild, wow this was Elephant watching on another level.
I will remember always the incredible welcome as we arrived, the Gin and Tonic placed in my hand, then sitting on a sun bed watching families of Elephants drinking right next to us.
The camp was amazing, the people incredible and the food, drink and activities sensational."

Arrived
20 Sep 2022
"The welcome by our host Billy was excellent, then the surprise of staying in a luxury cave was another special moment of the trip. Once again the facilities, food and drink were exceptional, complimented by wonderful people who could not do enough to look after us for the duration of our stay.
Our guide Paul was outstanding in his knowledge, entertainment and excitement, making the activities in the mountain terrain another life time experience that should not be missed. The life story of Cecil Rhodes to the 10,000 year old cave paintings were explained in Technicolor detail by Paul who also managed to get us up close with a family of Rhinos, absolutely stunning experience. Thanks to Billy and Paul for making such an effort to look after and entertain us."

Nyamatusi Camp
"Nyamatusi Camp review"
3 nights
Arrived
23 Sep 2022
"Each location we visited was of excellent quality in every aspect, Nyamatusi was no exception with the added point of location and luxury accommodation grading this camp as very special.
Our room was right next to the Zambezi river overlooking the Hippos bathing in the river with the backdrop of the most wonderful mountain range in Zambia. Elephants frequently grazed by our room, whilst the Hippos would trundle past our veranda during the evening whilst travelling to graze. I am not sure you could get much closer to nature, whilst feeling secure in the height of air conditioned luxury.
I would rate this camp outstanding in every aspect.
Our Guide Michael was amazing and took us on foot a few times in the bush, the sheer thrill of facing off Bull Elephants whilst feeling secure under his guidance was another highlight of the trip."
