Tailor-made Zimbabwe Safari by Travel 365, 12 Dec 2016
Holiday Rating:

A Great Safari Experience in Zimbabwe

We visited Zimbabwe in November 2016, staying at Victoria Falls and at three Lodges in Hwange National Park. The trip was extremely well organised and more than met our expectations. The wildlife and Guiding in Hwange NP is exceptional and I would recommend it to anyone who wishes to see wildlife in a largely unspoilt setting.

We have travelled with Expert Africa on three occasions. On all of these trips the organisation has been excellent. The team at Expert Africa are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the product they are selling and listen to what their customers want from a trip and tailor it to meet these.

Great to be able to talk directly to someone with personal knowledge of the area and camps. It was really easy and hassle free to organise a trip tailored specifically for my partner and myself. I would definitely recommend Expert Africa and would love to book a safari through them again.

Tailor-made Zambia Safari by doublecanister, 2 Dec 2016

Elephants in the room

Each year elephants visit the Mfuwe lodge, Mfuwe Zambia, to get to a great old mango tree. When the mango is in fruit (usually late October through December) the elephants may walk through the lobby to get to the fruit. They did that the first and last day of my 4 night stay, and I videoed them both times. My room was a two story (sort of a tree house -- not a tent) overlooking a stream. The crocodile (the name of the room) has a loft, balcony, ...

They did that the first and last day of my 4 night stay, and I videoed them both times. My room was a two story (sort of a tree house -- not a tent) overlooking a stream. The crocodile (the name of the room) has a loft, balcony, two toilets, four sinks, a tube and shower, as well as a porch. I counted as many as 13 elephants in my back yard at one time.

Expert Africa is expert. I have been regularly going to Africa since 2000, and I almost never go with the same tour company twice. But with Expert Africa, I just signed up for my third trip -- and second one this year. Needless to say, I am delighted.

Tailor-made Namibia Safari by Ine, 26 Nov 2016

Fantastic stay in Namibia

We organised our selfdrive holiday in Namibia via Expert Africa. Both the service of the travel agency and the trip itself were excellent. Namibia is a country with beautiful landscapes from enormous canyons and vast deserts in the southern part to riverscapes in the North. In between you can encounter plenty of game such as lions, elephants in one of the many conservancies or national parks of which Etosha is probably the most well-known. Overall ...

We organised our selfdrive holiday in Namibia via Expert Africa. Both the service of the travel agency and the trip itself were excellent.

In between you can encounter plenty of game such as lions, elephants in one of the many conservancies or national parks of which Etosha is probably the most well-known. Overall we had a fantastic time. It is difficult to convey all these experiences in a few sentences, but I would recommend everyone to just go and see for themselves.

Rating for tour operator:

Expert Africa really lives up to their name. They are very knowledgeable about the country, had excellent suggestions for our trip and the resulting itenerary was well thought through. At the beginning of our trip, we had an issue with delayed luggage, and both the local agent and our contact from Expert Africa did a great job in solving the issue.

Trip of a Lifetime

Our first visit to Africa. We chose Namibia for its wildlife, terrain and 'emptiness' and also because it offered us a self-drive experience in a safe environment. We had a fantastic time, the people were without exception very friendly and welcoming, and Namibia itself lived up to all our expectations with the fantastic wildlife in Etosha National Park being the absolute highlight. Truly a trip of a lifetime!

Expert Africa gets it right again!

24 nights in South Africa - perhaps the most beautiful country on Earth - and certainly the best hotels to come home to in the evening. A great country to self drive, we drove along the coast from cape Town to Port Elizabeth and then back through the Karoo

We always use Expert Africa when we visit Africa. They listen carefully to your interests and needs and then deliver exactly what you ask for - and then some! ....and their brochure is a "coffee table book"!
