Expert Africa Traveller Reviews

We had a 17 night self-drive holiday in Namibia in May 2025 to celebrate a retirement and recovery from illness. We stayed at a variety of lodges ranging in style but all were friendly, clean and comfortable. The trip was a mixture of visiting scenic areas and wildlife viewing. Everything went smoothly, we felt very well looked after and some of the places we stayed at were nothing short of stunning.

If we had tried to plan this trip ourselves (our usual preference) then it would have been nowhere near as amazing as what it was. Our itinerary would have been too ambitious and we would have missed out on some delightful places as they were not promoted as heavily as others or we did not think we would enjoy them. All interactions were pleasant, straightforward and timely and we had no issues at all with payments to Expert Africa or at the lodges. Everything they arranged for us went swimmingly.

I returned to Namiri Plains (an Asilia camp), Tanzania. It was a magical experience. I visited in May/June and saw many cheetah, mostly mothers with one or more cubs and a lion pride with 12 cubs - watching them play was just amazing. There were many different and wonderful sightings, including two cheetah on a rock at sunrise. One of the most unexpected and delightful sightings was of a family group of hyena playing in a water hole. After Namiri Plains, I relaxed at Legendary Lodge, Arusha, for a couple of days.

This is my sixth trip with Expert Africa. I enjoy the personalised service and, apart from once, have had the same specialist to help plan my trip. Each specialist listened to what I was most interested in and suggested various options. Their knowledge of individual camps and detailed information on their website is extremely valuable. As a solo traveller, I especially like the 'end to end' service, which I have always found to be well planned and organised.

Firstly we must give thanks to Karen and Tracey for all their help and advice, making this trip a fabulous experience. Our trip consisted of 3 nights at Little Kulala in the Namib-Nauklult National Park and 3 nights at the Ongava Tented Camp near to the Etosha National Park. The trip was bookended by a night at the beginning and end of our visit at the Weinberg hotel in Windhoek, staying on a bed and breakfast rate. The highlight of our time spent at Little Kulala was a Hot Air Balloon flight, whilst at Ongava lots of animals were spotted, Overall an amazing experience one that will remain in our memories for ever. Both places we stayed at where both peaceful and relaxing environments, this helped to switch off and enjoy the accommodation and the facilities offered.

Expert Africa made this trip a fabulous experience :-)

Expert Africa gave us excellent service from beginning to end. The safari experience was wonderful with some of the lodges/camps exceeding our expectations. We saw a wonderful range of wildlife, ate magnificent food and were well looked after all round.

The booking arrangements and pre booking advice was excellent. They were always at the end of the phone or email to respond quickly to our queries. All arrangements on the trip worked perfectly.

8 day trip in Kenya, spread between 2 days in Nairobi and 6 in the Masai Mara. We stayed in three excellent accomodation across locations, with stunning facilities and amazing staff. It was evident that the Expert Africa team had heard what we wanted from this trip and had tailored the itinerary perfectly to reflect this. The whole experience was also seamless, making for a truly stress free and once-in-a lifetime trip.

Excellent team with strong knowledge and communications skill. Worked with us collaboratively from day 1 to give us all of our options in our budget and to guide us on what is the best combination based on our expressed preferences for the trip. Everything felt tailored and looked after, with the personal notes during our stay in one lodge being a special touch on top of it all!

Remote secluded camps in Hwange NP & NE Delta. Great guiding, accommodations, food & camp staff. Especially enjoyed walking, boat & Mokoro safaris.

Expert Africa. Seamless arrangement of travel details. Second trip with EA and again they got it so right. Many thanks.

A magical holiday with so many amazing memories! We visited amboseli, the mara and the Serengeti before heading to Zanzibar.

Fantastic company. Service levels were exceptional and our trip was flawless. Parita looked after every element and made the daunting tasks of planning a complex safari a pleasure.

Amazing 3 centre safari holiday in Kenya, followed by a beach stay in Zanzibar. All organised by Expert Africa. Stayed in three national parks and conservancies with outstanding camp facilities, fabulous service and a wildlife experience that could not have been better. Simply fantastic.

Expert Africa have all the experience, knowledge, contacts and collaborators that you need to have a superlative safari experience. They ensured a smooth and unforgettable holiday and left us with wonderful memories of Africa.

Very nice trip in a very challenging season.

EA knew what we wanted and deliverd just that. We traveled with them before and will do so again.

We recently vacationed at three Nomad properties in Tanzania through Expert Africa — Kuro Tarangire, Entamanu Ngorongoro, and Nomad Serengeti. The density and diversity of wildlife at each location was fantastic, as was the guiding required to find some truly amazing sightings. From planning and pre-trip arrangements to arrival and throughout our trip, we had exceptional service.

Expert Africa and Nomad were fabulous! Every detail was tended to and all sites and properties exceeded our expectations.
