"Trip to Namibia and Vic Falls"
A couple of comments that hopefully help future guests:
- The distances are far and we felt that 2 nights max at any particular spot was not really enough. We wish we had stayed 3 nights at Hoodia and Onguma, both of which were fantastic.
- Bullsport was awful - see my review. We should have gone straight to Hoodia.
- Didn't like Etosha Safari Camp. I had really wanted to stay at Okakeujo but was told it was full. Was all accomodation really full there? Could more have been done to get a spot there?" Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

can't think of anything else to add. it was a brilliant trip" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zimbabwe safari
"Another superb trip"
We keep going back to the Kwando Camps because, whilst they are very comfortable, their emphasis is still on wildlife and they still use both a guide and a tracker, drive off-road and after dark. This makes the holiday much more exciting and much more interesting because it is a fascinating to watch the interaction between the guide and the tracker and see how they work together. As a consequence there are some amazing sightings, although some are as a result of communication between jeeps.
We keep coming back and each time we have a fantastic time with many new experiences and sightings of animals we have not seen before, particularly on night drives. We will be back!

No as I have always found Expert Africa's staff very knowledgeable and helpful but Lucy, who I worked with to sort out this trip, was particularly helpful and a delight to deal with.
I have, and will continue to recommend Expert Africa." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 10 on a Botswana safari
"A worthwhile Safari"
On this occasion Expert Africa got everything right and all credit must go to Tom for this." Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari
"This was one of our best holidays ever"
Everywhere we went the people were really kind and helpful. We are particularly pleased that we made the time to visit the Caprivi Strip - it is so different to the rest of Namibia with people living a communal life in traditional African villages."
