"My Sep 2022 trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 19 Sep 2022 and 28 Sep 2022
"We had an excellent trip to Zimbabwe, booked for us by Tom at very short notice (only 6 weeks before we travelled)!
As regular safari travellers, we had high expectations and quite specific requests and Tom did a brilliant job of helping us to find a trip which worked for us.
Thank you!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Sep 2022 trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 14 Sep 2022 and 27 Sep 2022
"At last after 2 years of cancellations and delays we made it!
Wonderful trip for 6 close friends, thank you Tom for all the arrangements and advice.
Great decision to have 2 game lodges with a slightly different experience separating them.
We loved Zimbabwe and felt totally safe travelling there." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Sep 2022 trip"
I visited Zimbabwe between 14 Sep 2022 and 27 Sep 2022
"This was a trip of a lifetime, made possible by careful and thoughtful planning by Tom.
We would have not experienced something like this if Tom had not made my wife and I extremely confident about the expertise of Expert Africa, and they exceeded our expectations beyond imagination.
Tom and Expert Africa would be my first choice for any trip like this in the future." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Zimbabwe - at last !"
I visited Zimbabwe between 10 Sep 2022 and 23 Sep 2022
"We waited a long time to do this trip and it turned out to be very nearly as good as we hoped.
As in life in general, there were ups and downs - Bumi Hills was a massive surprise in a good way and Nyamatusi/ Mana Pools was a disappointment.
Overall we enjoyed it hugely and it was really nice to be back in Africa again." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zimbabwe safari

"My Sep 2022 trip"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 7 Sep 2022 and 23 Sep 2022

It really paid off going to a number of different lodges to give us experiences in different environments where the animal life was varied.

"My Sep 2022 trip"
I visited South Africa and 2 other countries between 3 Sep 2022 and 14 Sep 2022
"It was a trip of a lifetime. We throughly enjoyed ourselves and have great memories.
It was a long time coming as we booked pre-Covid and wondered if we would ever get there.
Expert Africa was instrumental in delivering this from the moment we contacted them to the fantastic planning mainly from Megan. She kept us up to date during Covid to when things were eventually opening up. Everything ran smoothly with no problems, especially flights and transfers.
I cannot thank them enough and would definitely recommend.

"My Aug 2022 trip"
I visited Namibia and 3 other countries between 29 Aug 2022 and 27 Sep 2022
"We initially booked this trip with Expert Africa in late February/early March, 2020. Then Covid hit and the world went into lockdown. Maruska was our contact person from the start, making the reservations and setting up the itinerary for us.
We went through many ups and downs over the course of these two years, never sure if indeed the trip would materialize. Initially we postponed the September, 2020 trip to 2021, but it still did not seem wise to go then, so we postponed it to August/September, 2022. If we could have gotten most of our deposit returned, we would have cancelled the entire trip, with all of the continued worries and anxiety that Covid was inflicting on the world.
As Expert Africa has a firm policy of not returning deposits, we postponed the trip again to 2022. We are so glad we did! It all turned out fabulous, and thankfully, we remained healthy.
Throughout this long postponement, with the changes involved, Maruska was always exceedingly polite, understanding, and respectful of our worries and concerns. She did an extraordinary job arranging our trip, which involved four different countries, multiple flights, and many different camps.
The organization was outstanding and everything was seamless.
Truly incredible attention to detail. Thank you.
