One of our best ever holiday experiences
Namibia and 2 other countries between 2 Aug 2010 and 18 Aug 2010
"We have travelled with many holiday companies over the years and usually travel at least 3 times a year and we can honestly say that in all our experiences this ranks with the best of them, from our experience with Expert Afica who were always willing to help with any queries, and all of our destinatiions (except maybe a couple) it was a breathtaking experience for myself my wife and our 2 grandchildren, every single day was mind blowing.
Thank you so much Sabina for all your help in helping us arrange a lovely holiday.

"A contender for the friendliest place I have ever stayed
Chris the manager was an amazing host always on hand, the setting was superb even though the Hippos tended to wake you in the middle of the night with the noise, food fantastic, I would recommend this place to anybody"

Mazambala Island Lodge, Namibia (this camp has since closed)
"Nice setting but thats all"
2 nights
Arrived
9 Aug 2010
"Of all the places we stayed on our trip 8 places in all I suppose there had to be one we didnt enjoy, lovely setting on the island but thats about it, food not that good, service was terrible and our room was right beside the camp fire they lit at night so none of us could sleep with all the talking, not much fun when you have 2 young children with you, pity we booked 2 nights instead of 1."

Avani Victoria Falls
"Little like a holiday camp"
2 nights
Arrived
15 Aug 2010
"This place was like staying in your typical family holiday camp although for the victoria falls you are limited for accomadation I guess, somehow they rate this place as 4 star??
They refused to serve the 2 children with breakfast unless we paid for them $8 each although I thought we had paid for B&B the restaurant service was the worst I have experienced, we had to ask for cups, then coffee, juice, sugar the lot, certainly not 4*
The beds were so small it seemed like 4 of us had 2 single beds between us. Having said that our evening meals just off complex at squires was lovely although expensive"
