"Wonderful holiday!"

I visited Zimbabwe and 1 other country between 11 Mar 2013 and 28 Mar 2013
"Have recommended you to several friends.

Very impressed by the response by Tracey last Saturday when we missed our flight and had to stay in Joburg for a night. Everyone was informed and the trip round Vic Falls was organised for us so that we could get to see the Falls the same afternoon as we arrived.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Well done! A really excellent service and we had a marvellous holiday. Thank you very much." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 4 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Feb 2013 trip"

I visited Zanzibar between 14 Feb 2013 and 24 Feb 2013
"The trip was brilliant - no adverse comments at all. Incidentally, the guidebook which you sent us on East Africa was an absolute Godsend and we used it a lot. Thank you very much.

We would definitely travel with Expert Africa again.

"My Feb 2013 trip"

I visited Zanzibar between 7 Feb 2013 and 16 Feb 2013
"Trip was great, all connections and reservations were carried out seamlessly and on time. One miscommunication on a side tour was corrected to our satisfaction. Eco and Culture transfer vehicles and drivers were excellent, safe, and on time.

It's unfortunate that the local people don't take more effort to keep the trash cleaned up. Plastic bags should be banned as they are in Rwanda. Southern part of the island is cleaner, more green and tropical looking, and a little less humid." Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 5 on a Zanzibar holiday

"Honemoon Trip 2013"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 26 Jan 2013 and 8 Feb 2013
"Overall this was an incredible experience and we have some amazing memories. Safari was great and Zanzibar very relaxing. We are extremely happy with our trip. Expert Africa organized everything for us very smoothly, all the preparation prior to the trip and the journey itself has been planned excellent. We will definitely refer to Expert Africa on our next trip to Africa.

One additional comment, when checking out from Mchanga Beach Lodge, we've realized that some of our money (rather big amount) was missing. We're not sure when and where this exactly could have happened, so we don't want to make any accusations. We kept it the money all the time in the safe provided by Impala Camp or Mchanga Beach Lodge. Thus, we worry that it has been taken from there at one of the places.

The transfers on Zanzibar was done by ECO Tours. We had the same driver for all our trips and he also organized us a Spice Tour. We were very happy with the local service. The driver was friendly and reliable." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari
