"Fabulous!"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 30 Oct 2017 and 4 Nov 2017
"I found Expert Africa online, and thought the website was very good, and Amanda was very responsive and helpful - but I was still a little nervous about how the holiday would turn out, having never used them before. But my worry turned to delight as everything went off without a hitch and the places we stayed were even better than expected.

The transfers all went fine, with helpful guys to get us through the airports - very nice!

Thank you, I would 100% recommend you to others.

"More people should go to Zimbabwe !"

I visited Zimbabwe between 21 Oct 2017 and 1 Nov 2017
"All the logistics worked well but there was a lot of long distance travel between lodges and the roads were often in a very poor state.

Lodges were very nice and staff excellent. I was impressed by the way the camps used all local staff and supported the local village school at Ngoma from Camelthorn.

Guides were all excellent and really ensured we saw as much as possible." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Wonderful experience.Will recommend to others"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 19 Oct 2017 and 26 Oct 2017
"Our trip was wonderful and organized well by Justin (in California). He had suggested the order in which we should do this trip and i completely agree with his recommendations.

While at Kanana, "Doctor" our guide asked why i had requested him, and i told him i did not, but apparently Justin had put in a request that Doctor be our guide when he made our reservation, and for that i am extremely grateful to Justin.

Having never heard of Expert Africa before, i was quite nervous about all arrangements, but from the first transfer i quickly learned i had nothing to be concerned about. A truly first class organization that i will not hesitate to recommend.

Continue to encourage your staff to visit the properties because their feedback is how we made our selections." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 5 on a Botswana safari

"Namibia NHS Zimbabwe October 17"

I visited Zimbabwe and 1 other country between 29 Sep 2017 and 18 Oct 2017
"All aspects of the trip went very smoothly. The vouchers provided for the Namibia leg worked very well and a highlighted route map enabled us to find our accommodation with ease.

All our transfers in Zimbabwe also worked like clockwork.

The information provided by Expert Africa meant that we were well prepared for our trip and had no nasty surprises.

It was a holiday of a lifetime and the memories will be remembered for many years." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Sep 2017 trip"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 23 Sep 2017 and 7 Oct 2017
"Maruska and Expert Africa were terrific. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

After listening to my interests, she recommended camps which we felt covered good variety of environments and experiences. I think starting in Hwange and finishing in the Delta was ideal as our Hwange guide was very educational and the wildlife at Kwara particularly superb. If we ended at Hwange we would have felt 3 nights probably sufficient, though were lucky enough for my son to spot a leopard and see a pride of 14 lions in our last 24 hr.

It was also great to have all the arrangements and transportation taken care of." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 7 on a Botswana safari

"Great Namibian adventure!"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 22 Sep 2017 and 8 Oct 2017
"We thought our whole trip to Victoria Falls and Namibia were top notch. Expert Africa did a great job and nothing went even slightly wrong the whole way round. The pre-trip information covered everything we could have asked for and Maruska was excellent!

Namibia is very varied and friendly and easy to drive around by yourselves. Everywhere we stayed were really comfortable and luxurious and the whole tourism industry feels very professional and well run. We have and will continue to recommend both Namibia and Expert Africa to others considering a varied, exciting holiday in Southern Africa.

One recommendation: Rent a bigger car than a Renault Duster. The roads are quite bad and there is a lot of driving to do!" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"Extraordinary safari"

I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 21 Sep 2017 and 4 Oct 2017
"Our trip was fantastic. As a our 2nd Botswana safari it outdid our expectations. The camps were great and the food lovely. The wildlife remains superb. It takes a bit longer to find than say the Masai Mara but rewards the effort with really special sightings in a largely pristine natural environment of extreme beauty."
