Expert Africa took the stress out of organising our holiday
A fabulous trip of a life time to Namibia. It included game drives and stays at incredible lodges.

Excellent and really are experts in Africa - wouldn’t use any other company now - extremely professional and knowledgeable





Holiday of a lifetime.
The whole trip was excellent. Each lodge was different in what it had to offer and we experienced a real feel for Namibia, doing a self drive option. The wildlife didn't disappoint.

Josh at Expert Africa planned our itinerary and we couldn't have wished for more. He had first hand experience of the country so was able to put together the most fantastic holiday, with our requirements well catered for. We loved everything about the trip and our only disappointment was that we couldn't stay for longer.





Wonderful holiday in Namibia
Amazing holiday Perfect accommodation. Even more amazing given we booked relatively late for Namibia.

Tracy was superb. She pulled together a wonderful itinerary despite us booking so late. Expert Africa are highly recommended.





A wonderful experience
We combined an 11 night holiday in Namibia with a few days seeing friends in Cape Town so made our own flight arrangements to and from Windhoek. We tried to find out what we could about Namibia and then send a draft itinerary with possible stop over lodges to Expert Africa. Sabina took over from there. All her suggestions improved our draft and we stayed at some wonderful lodges, had a perfect hire car from an excellent company (Bidvest) and ...

They were just superb: very efficient, always helpful and, clearly, incredibly knowledgeable about the country.





Amazing Safari in Tanzania
We had 5 nights in the Selous, 5 nights in Ruaha and ended with 3 nights at Mafia Island. All locations were excellent, small and generally intimate with other likeminded safari lovers. All arrangements were perfect.

Have used Expert Africa three times now and have found them excellent through the whole experience. Their brochure is second to none.





Safari in South Luangwa Park, Zambia - July 18
We flew from tne UK via Dubai with Emirates - good flights and decent aircraft. On arrival in Lusaka mid afternoon day 1 we went to Latitude 15 for the night, excellent hotel but quite pricey. We left there at 05:30 to get the early morning flight to Mfuwe - the $10 packed breakfast consisted of two cold croissants and a bottle of water so I'd skip that in future! In South Luangwa we stayed 3 nights at Luangwa River Camp, 3 nights Mwamba ...

In South Luangwa we stayed 3 nights at Luangwa River Camp, 3 nights Mwamba Bush Camp and 3 nights Kaingo camp - all good camps, and these 3 together provided a good selection over the 9 days. I would say that was just about perfect fopr the holiday. The guiding from the camps was excellent and we had really good game viewing, especially of wild dog, lion and leopard.

Expert Africa, Freddie Sutton spent many discussions arranging the trip having to cope with the wishes of3 factions in the family group





First time safari, first time to Africa
Amazing trip to Zambia - my first trip to Africa and my first safari. Stayed three nights in Livingstone [suggested by Expert Africa] and seven on safari in South Luangwa National Park staying at three Norman Carr Safaris bushcamps [this element was pre-chosen by me before booking]. All the accommodation and food was excellent and the staff were superb. Saw an amazing range of wildlife on safari.

Very efficient - took the trouble to understand what I wanted from the trip and make appropriate recommendations. Easy to contact when a problem arose during my trip (fortunately requiring only a small timing adjustment to my schedule). Would - and probably will! - happily use them again.





Very well organised
