"Our honeymoon"
We made sure we spent as much time as we could out-and-about to see as much wildlife as possible, but we still feel we were very lucky with the number of species we saw at what is considered low season!
We have so many amazing memories which we will cherish forever and can't wait to plan another trip!!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip
"Africa"
"Brilliant Zimbabwe Trip"
As regular safari travellers we accept not everything will go exactly as planned and you certainly can't guarantee what wildlife you will see but what you hope for is an overall experience that makes you think, yes that was a great holiday, and that is what we got.
Everyone from Imvelo Safaris that we encountered was a credit to the company and Zimbabwe is certainly a safari destination we can strongly recommend.
Expert Africa were again efficient and will be our first point of call for our next safari, thank you." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari
"My Nov 2018 trip"

As I stated earlier, I came home a tired but extremely happy lady who is yet to wipe the grin off her face" Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 11 on a Kenya safari
"My Nov 2018 trip"
"Perfect trip"
We are seasoned travellers to Botswana and Zimbabwe and possibly hard to please. But we loved absolutely everything on this trip which went like clockwork.
We met some great people with whom to share our experiences and can recommend this to anyone seeking wildlife and wilderness with excellent service and very high standards." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari
"One of the best trips ever."
Light aircraft transfer was probably not necessary, provided no real advantage & caused restrictions on luggage.
Although there was a snafu in our transfer from Hwange Camp back to Vic Falls, the situation was satisfactorily remedied and the tour operator compensated us with free river cruise and Vic Falls walking tour. Essentially the pick-up was missed but with the help of staff from The Hide and a volunteer from a friend of the transfer company (?Wild Horizons) we were eventually (2.75 hrs late) driven back to VF & met about half-way by the tour company driver."

We have found your company to be excellent." Read full review: 4 nights in Africa; 2 on a Botswana safari
"My Oct 2018 trip"
We have both had experience of safaris and Botswana is a wonderful place with absolutely delightful people well trained staff, but I would not recommend it as a first safari due to long distances and well distributed animals, that is just my view."
