Superb Safari

Our trip was to 3 different camps in Kenya. (Offbeat Meru in Meru, Kicheche Laikipia in Ol Pejeta and Kicheche Bush in Olare Motorogi. We were very happy with each of the camps, food was excellent (as non-meat eaters we were very well catered for), guiding and wildlife viewing was excellent. All arrangements worked very smoohly. We had a wonderful trip.

The tour operator was very careful to listen to our requirementsand was very keen to find out what we wanted from the trip. They were very knowledgeable, having visited the camps themselves. Advice was very good. It is the second time we have used Expert Africa, and we will use them again.

First rate classic African safari

We were extremely pleased with the prompt response, efficiently organized tour and great properties that were booked for us by Expert Africa. All facets of our trip were well coordinated, with the transfers between camps and airports waiting for us with a name placard and a friendly person. This has been our sixth safari and one of the best we have experienced. We would go with Expert Africa again and recommend them to our friends. We ...

This has been our sixth safari and one of the best we have experienced. We would go with Expert Africa again and recommend them to our friends. We had not been to Kenya since 2001, but would definitely return.

Eleanor was very prompt with answering our questions and designed our safari just the way we had suggested to her. All the information that we needed for our trip was provided.

Expert Africa review

Knowledgeable about the places we planned to visit so that we were able to stay in a variety of locations, spending enough time in each to enjoy the area/activities.

Wonderful time at alfajiri

A fantastic place to relax, regroup and reflect upon two weeks of had graft safari'ing. We were desperately in need of peace and quiet and looking after following 15 days of intense travelling and early morning starts and trekking up volcanoes and the like.

A trip of a lifeltime!!

Our trip to Rwanda to see the Golden Monkeys and Mountain Gorillas was perhaps, the most wonderful trip we have ever made. We enjoyed every second and came home wanting to return.

Style and real wilderness in Kenya

With ten days to spend on holiday in Kenya during the rainy season at short notice, we turned to Expert Africa to roganise something. They gave us a few recommendations of things we didn't know about or hadn't done before on previous visits to Kenya. The Emakoko was a real fibnd, a loverly safari lodge, with a real safari vibe in Nairobi national park.

With ten days to spend on holiday in Kenya during the rainy season at short notice, we turned to Expert Africa to roganise something. They gave us a few recommendations of things we didn't know about or hadn't done before on previous visits to Kenya. The Emakoko was a real fibnd, a loverly safari lodge, with a real safari vibe in Nairobi national park. Food was good, ambience was lovely and this is a fantastic place to spend time near the main airport. From there, we felw to Laikipia to stay at Laikipia Wilderness. The camp is lovely but perhaps visually not the most lovely in the area. However, the exprience was world class if you want to be immersed into the wilderness experience. Guiding was great, the wildife was varied and the chance to view wild dogs really up close was wonderful. Honestly, if you want a relaxed experience, good guiding and to forget about the real world, this place is it. From there we went on to Saruni Samburu, a complete contrast. Seeing this place at the start fo the rainy season was interesting, like being in a BBC wildlife documentary, as colours changed and the wildlife woke up. The lodge itself is truly spectacular: the photos on their website do not lie.

Rating for tour operator:

Richard Trillo at Expert Africa write the Rough guide to Kenya, so is truly an expert. He was spot on in his recommendations, efficient and helpful. Pricing was exactly what we expected for the lodges we had chosen. We have used Expert Africa before for Zambia and elsewhere and have always been impressed.

Namibian Safari November 2015

We had a very enjoyable 9 day trip to Namibia organised by Expert Africa. On the whole the lodges we stayed at were very good and the car hire arrangements worked well. I thought the overall cost was competitive and Expert Africa very helpful in making suggestions and the arrangements.
