Expert Africa Traveller Reviews

The Best Trip ever. Loved each and every moment, from the Tanzanite experience in Arusha to all the Animals seen in Tanzania parks to Zanzibar at the Breezes hotel with swimming in the Indian Ocean. It was very special and was treated royalty, including going business class on Qatar Airlines.

Went through the company Nomad and our tour guide was extremely special also. He went out of his way, made his job seem simple but he put in a lot of effort to make my adventure great and safe.

Three of my friends asked if I would put together a safari for them since I had been to Tanzania a few times. I jumped at the chance and immediately called Expert Africa, as I knew that I couldn't do this alone. My overall goal was to give them a varied yet cohesive safari experience; combining a bush experience with a unique lodge experience, while getting a taste for the wonderful people and culture of Tanzania. After flying from the USA to Tanzania and getting in late at night we stayed at a lodge close to the airport where we flew out the next morning to the heart of the Serengeti. And so the journey began. 4 nights at Namari Plains Camp in the Serengeti, 2 nights at Gibb's Farm at the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, 2 nights at Oliver's Camp in the Tarangeri and ending up in Arusha for the final 2 days. We not only visited the National Parks but had the chance to visit the Oldupai Gorge, and the Rift Valley Children's Village in Karatu. Then of course shopping at the Cultural Center and Massai Market in Arusha. James Denny with Expert Africa made the execution of this trip seamless and his recommendations for camp sites was spot on.

I feel like I hit the jackpot with Expert Africa. This enthusiastic team of world travelers has been so easy to work with. Whenever I call they are so willing to help and whenever I send an email their response is timely. This is my second trip using Expert Africa and I know that I am in good hands, which is important to me as a single female traveler. The recommendations that Expert Africa made for this trip were based on their knowledge of the camps, and their ability to synthesize the experience that I was trying to create. They listen, they suggest, they work with you and then they make it happen. I recommend their website to people who are interested in traveling to Africa but don't know where to start, as it can be overwhelming. Their website is filled with ideas, easy to use and their reviews are always recent. This is a company that I can confidently recommend to others.

This was a four person holiday (all adults ) to South Africa including Cape Town, the Winelands, Knysna and a safari at a private reserve.

They were very accessible, informative and friendly. I particularly welcomed the ability to talk things over on the phone. We were trying to maximise our experience but needed to ensure it was affordable. This involved a few changes in booking arrangements and these were all done very professionally and without any fuss.

A really wonderful adventure. Primate-tracking is an experience of a lifetime. The beaches of Mozambique have to be seen to be appreciated properly. Ibo Island in the Quirimbas is a really unique destination and highly recommended.

Our third trip with Expert Africa in three years. An excellent company with knowledgeable, helpful staff. An excellent preliminary itinerary and excellent advice on our proposed modifications to it. The arrangements came together quickly and with minimal fuss. The itinerary and arrangement unfolded almost like clock-work. We have been highly pleased with our trips arranged through Expert Africa and recommend them without reservation.

A self-driving 3 week trip around Namibia with a huge variety of experiences and scenery. I absolutely loved it and didn't' want to leave.

The advisor from Exper Africa listened carefully to my preferences, e.g. Not too many long drives and plenty of opportunities to be active. The itinerary was exactly what we wanted and very well planned.

Our holiday to Namibia was incredible. It surpassed all of our expectations and Expert Africa did as well.

Maruska was incredible. She took our wish list, made it all happen and then some! She notified all the locations it was our honeymoon and they all treated us spectacularly. She was quick to respond and very very helpful~!

Expert Africa helped us organise a two week trip to Namibia over the Christmas holidays. It was certainly one to remember. We loved every minute of it. Would highly recommend Expert Africa!

Very pleased with the service of Expert Africa

# middel age Americans on first visit to African, spent over a month doing a self drive tour of namibia. We saw amazing wildlife, astounding scenery and met wonderful local people and fellow tourists.

Maruska of Expert Africa took care of everything. we had planned a 30 day circuit tour on our own but were twarted in our own efforts to amke the arrangments. Maurska worked with us to optimize our itinerary and then finalize all the arrangments so everything went perfectly smoothly.

Brilliant and well organized for us by Expert Africa (again)

We had previously booked a holiday to Namibia two years ago with Expert Africa, which we absolutely loved. We returned to see some of the spectacular sights of Southern Namibia and then travelled into South Africa. The entirety of the trip was self-drive staying in a range of accommodation from game lodges, to B&Bs to 5 star hotels.

Expert Africa had made all of the arrangements for us which helped our holiday to run very smoothly. All of the accommodation recommended and organised by Expert Africa was excellent. There is always someone available to assist with enquiries or emergencies, and the trip represented good value.
