60th birthday trip to the eclipse in Tanzania
Since my birthday and the solar eclipse were so close I decided to knock something off my bucket list as a birthday gift. My husband and I went to Tanzania on safari to see the solar eclipse and snorkel off Zanzibar. We spent time in Ruaha and Selous. Both parks had lovely "glamps" and plenty of game and bird sightings. I would not have gone to Tanzania except that the eclipse was best seen there. I was wrong. It was better than my previous ...
Since my birthday and the solar eclipse were so close I decided to knock something off my bucket list as a birthday gift. My husband and I went to Tanzania on safari to see the solar eclipse and snorkel off Zanzibar. We spent time in Ruaha and Selous. Both parks had lovely "glamps" and plenty of game and bird sightings. I would not have gone to Tanzania except that the eclipse was best seen there. I was wrong. It was better than my previous trips to Namibia, South Africa, Zambia or even Botswana.

I have been to subsaharan Africa 7 times but this is the first time I used Expert Africa. Their website caught my eye and proved to be a superb resource. Ellie was prompt pleasant and professional. When I had trouble paying the final installment on the web I shot off an email and they returned it almost immediately (even though it was 1 AM GMT). Turned out it was my fault as I didn't know my husband had already made an account. I will use Expert Africa for any future travel to Africa even though they are in England and I am in the USA.

The trip of a lifetime!
Two weeks in Tanzania: one on safari in Selous and Ruaha game reserves/parks in great lodges, going on thrilling games drives and spotting wonderful animals and birds. Followed by a week on Mafia and Chole islands in the Indian Ocean, relaxing, snorkelling and seeing baby turtles hatch.

Expert Africa are tireless when it comes to helping you plan your perfect african safari holiday. All the paperwork is first class and the arrangements whilst on holiday with the numerous African travel agents, airlines etc is second to none. Everything went seemlessly even though our itinerary was complicated.





A special holiday perfectly delivered
A trip to South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. The trip included stays in 3 game lodges and travel from the UK . All aspects of the trip were organised by Expert Africa. It was a perfect experience for us. We are in our mid 70s but we were able to travel hassle free. We were taken on game drives, in groups of never more than 4, by very competent and interesting guides. We had a number of escorted walks again in small groups. International ...

The operator (Expert Africa) put together an excellent package. Our communication was with one member of staff in whom we had complete trust, He built a good rapport with us from the start. We felt that he understood our needs and he certainly delivered a package that was well above our expectation

Efficient and knowledgeable, thank you Expert Africa!





Holiday of a lifetime
Our trip was a two country (Zambia and Malawi) safari holiday with Expert Africa and Robin Pope Safaris. From start to finish I cannot fault our experiences. We had the most exciting time and have the most vivid memories which will always live with us. We certainly did not expect to be so intimately exposed to the wildlife in such a safe and informative manner.

From the very start it was clear our contact at Expert Africa knew what he was taliking about. Enthusiastic, knowledgeable and experienced, I'd recommend Richard Trillo at Expert Africa to anyone considering a trip to Kenya.





Excellent safari in Zambia!
We had a splendid, wonderful, amazing, "when can I go back"- safari holiday in Zambia! The lodge we booked through Expert Africa met and exceeded by far all our expectations.

We knew which lodge we wanted to book when we contacted our tour operator. However questions do always come up once the trip gets closer and we always received a very friendly and prompt reply. The amount of information we received was also incredible! We will definitely book again with Expert Africa!
