Wow, Wow, Wow-A wonderful and exciting 1st Safari!!
We researched various travel companies dealing with safaris in Africa, and was recommended to Expert Africa who in turn recommended Robin Pope Safaris. we went to the South Luangwa River camps at Nkwali, Tena Tena and Nsefu and had a wonderful and memorable safari experience. The accommodation was excellent and comfortable and the teams at Robin Pope safaris were very knowledgeable, helpful and caring for us to have a memorable safari experience...
We researched various travel companies dealing with safaris in Africa, and was recommended to Expert Africa who in turn recommended Robin Pope Safaris. we went to the South Luangwa River camps at Nkwali, Tena Tena and Nsefu and had a wonderful and memorable safari experience. The accommodation was excellent and comfortable and the teams at Robin Pope safaris were very knowledgeable, helpful and caring for us to have a memorable safari experience. We saw all the wildlife that we expected and more! We saw live kill events which, whilst a little upsetting reflected how the animals in the wild survived and found food etc.

Expert Africa were excellent in their customer service and care and our Consultant Freddie Sutton went the extra mile to ensure we had the right holiday experience for our first safari. We talked through the various options and were guided with useful information. The itinerary was followed very closely by Robin Pope Safaris and they also spoke very highly of Expert Africa. We were supplied with a travel guide to Zambia written by one of the Expert Africa team- Chris McIntyre which was invaluable and gave us background information on the people and culture, history, politics and economy and covered planning and preparation for the holiday and a guide as to the wildlife that was to be seen in the country-an EXCELLENT publication given to us as part of our travel literature, which also included "Notes for travellers to Zambia".





Outstanding safari holiday, from first enquiry to touchdown.
This was without doubt the best holiday we have ever had - from start to finish it was filed with quality, excitement, hospitality and fun. Our holiday covered 3 totally different African locations, from a private beach lodge in Zanzibar, to an exquisite new tented camp in Tanzania, culminating in mind-boggling luxury on a rocky outcrop in the heart of the country.

Everything about our dealings with Expert Africa could not have been better - the local country knowledge and personal experience of the camps ensures that the London team know exactly what they are talking about. The company is not only expert in name - the London staff and African camps provide a consistently high level of expertise and excellence seldom encountered in the travel industry.





Namibi - a two week tour
We are a family of five and thoroughly enjoyed our two week self drive holiday in Namibia. Expert Africa organised our routes and accommodation and the entire holiday was a huge success. We saw most of the places in Namibia that any traveler would want to see and so many wonderful animals. We stayed in remote lodges and towns and we enjoyed everything from Sand Boarding on the Dunes to the magnificent watering holes of Etosha. This was ...

Expert Africa provided us with everything we needed from advance planning to guide books for our wonderful holiday. Sabina was an excellent agent and I can't fault any part of our trip and the organisation of it; we would recommend and re-use Expert Africa.

The team member understood our requirements quickly and was able to book us a superb trip that suited requirements perfectly. We've travelled with EA on many occasions and will continue to do so. Can't recommend highly enough.

Holiday of a lifetime in Namibia
We spent 7 days on safari in Namibia and then another 7 days self drive in Namibia visiting the area around and the sand dunes at Sossosvlei. Expert Africa put this trip together for us and they were absolutely excellent.

Expert Africa were immensely knowledgeable and helpful. We needed to change our itinerary a few times and they were understanding and accommodating. They used their knowledge to ensure we stayed in really lovely places and the safari they booked us onto with Wild Dog Safaris was excellent.





fantastic Safari experience in Zambia and Malawi
I had a truly excellent two weeks in the South Luangwa national park in Zambia and two parks in Malawi ( Liwonde and Majete ) Everything was arranged perfectly by Expert Africa and worked faultlessly in remote locations. I had a very enjoyable experience and have many good and lasting memories of my trip.

Expert Africa are as the name suggests experts in the field of arranging adventure holidays in various African countries. I have now use them three times , and each time everything has worked perfectly.





A unique way experience the wildlife of Zambia
Our itinerary was put together by ExpertAfrica and everything run smoothly. The recommended lodges were excellent and matched our needs perfectly. The game drives and walking safaris were fantastic and allowed us to get up close to the animals. As a once in a lifetime holiday it surpassed our expectations. I would recommend Zambia to anybody thinking of a safari but don't tell too many people as its a hidden gem.

Freddie Sutton was knowledgeable helpful and listened to my suggestions and ideas and incorporated them into our final itinerary. The website was very informative as was the pre holiday information. I would definitely recommend ExpertAfrica to anybody thinking of travelling to Africa.





Perfect and magical
From planning our trip of a lifetime to Zambia, from start to finish, this family holiday was magical. We spent 4 days in South Luangwa (Flatdogs Camp) with out 2 boys, aged 10 and 13, and the wildlife was awesome. We then spent 3 days R&R at Victoria Falls which was spectacular!

Patient, helpful, able to respond to a myriad of questions! Offered a range of options/ quotations based within our budget. They had already organised contingency plans when we were delayed at Dubai which thus affected our subsequent flights. Fortunately we didn't need to revert to the plans, but knowing they were sorted was reassuring. Expert Africa is certainly a company we will be returning to - as well as the many friend and family we have recommended them to.
