Tailor-made Namibia Safari Traveller Reviews

The agent organised a very detailed trip and we drove from Windhoek to the south and then along the coast up to the National Park.

Expert Africa were excellent and we would not hesitate to recommend them.

We had a holiday to Namibia for one week, which is absolutely not enough time. We arranged for a fly-in safari where we flew from Windhoek to Sossusvlei. We spent two days in the beautiful desert, in awe of the ecosystem, dunes, and fiery sunsets. We had a beautiful safari lodge with a view to die for. Then we flew up to Etosha, and were taken aback and how different the environment was. We stayed at a camp that was very welcoming, hospitable, and quite good at taking us out on game drives. We saw more than we bargained for and were very impressed with the guides. I was disappointed when it was over but I have the pictures. When I look at them, I'm in disbelief at how beautiful Namibia is.

Expert Africa was incredibly helpful with arranging my trip to Namibia. I love to plan trips and am quite good with it, but when I opened the Brandt Travel Guide to Namibia, I was immediately overwhelmed. The guide mentioned Expert Africa as a company that the author works for, so I looked it up. I shot off an email not expecting much, but instead I got incredibly responsive and personalized service. It was very in-depth and the agent must have spent a lot of time working out the details of my specific requests with no guarantee that I'd book with them. Ultimately I did, because the trip was planned so perfectly that I would have been a fool to try to arrange any other way. Plus the trip was extremely well priced. I reached out to other companies to try to arrange the same thing in order to price shop, and absolutely it was the lowest price. I was very glad that the agent worked with me and my budget to ensure I got what I wanted but still within my price range. That was absolutely the most impressive part. I absolutely will use Expert Africa for all of my Africa trips from now on.

Always there to hand craft our holiday to our changing specification.

We visited Namibia with Expert Africa, who organised an excellent itinerary in a country that we had not been to before. We booked lated but they got us into almost all the locations we wanted and, importantly, seemed to understand what our taste level and requirements were. Taking three children (age 13, 9 and 3) to Namibia is a judgement not to be made lightly because of the vast distances involved and 4-9 hour drives we undertook every two to three days, but if you can plan for such journeys then you will have a great time. The country itself is charming and child-friendly, with no security risks that we came across. We would definitely recommend it.

We visited Namibia with Expert Africa, who organised an excellent itinerary in a country that we had not been to before. We booked lated but they got us into almost all the locations we wanted and, importantly, seemed to understand what our taste level and requirements were. Whilst travelling we met a person who is an independent expert and business consultant in travel safari holidays in Africa and she spoke very highly of Expert African and its founder, in particular mentioning that they are much more commercially independent than many operators, which means they are more likely to recommend what is good for you than what is financially good for them. We would certainly recommend them for trips to Namibia, a country they know particularly well.

This April we went with large family group (7people) to Namibia, combining wildlife viewing with other activities such as dune climbing and kayaking. Highlights included searching for (and finding) desert adapted elephants and kayaking with seals. We also spent time with an absolutely excellent guide at Mushara Bush camp who found us a black rhino and a pride of lions who had just fed, she was knowledgeable about birds as well as mammals and it was a real privilege to spend time with her. The teenagers on the trip said that it was the best thing that they had ever done (despite being without wifi for most of the time!)- praise indeed.

We have travelled with Expert Africa on a number of occasions and always had a good experience. Expert Africa organised a tailor-made itinerary which was near perfect and included booking for restaurants and activities, the attention to detail was impressive. Activities ranged from climbing a dune at dawn to kayaking with seals at Pelican point, plus extensive game viewing and all great fun. The team is extremely knowledgeable about the camps and activities and we always felt confident that they had chosen the best places for our budget.

Expert Africa hired a car for us, booked eleven nights' stay for us in six destinations. All of them were typical of their localities and enabled us to see the sights to best advantage. Sand dunes, seaside holiday, rock carvings and game viewing: Namibia has it all! All done by just handing over what was quite a modest amount of money.

As above: they did all for us with the minimum of effort on our part. We said what we wanted and Expert Africa made it happen. All we had to do was the driving - and that was a pleasure in the excellent hired car.

We spent 15 days touring Namibia. We started in Windhoek, drove to the Sossusvlei area where we had a day's outing to view and walk in the dunes; then on to the coast at Walvis Bay with amazing birdlife. From there we drove north to Damaraland and had close views of desert elephants on a morning game drive. We spent 4 days visiting Etosha National Park - 2 night's staying in one of the park's rest camps and 2 nights in a lodge just outside the park's eastern entrance. Our final 2 nights were spent at Okonjima reserve where we had close views of leopard and cheetah. Apart from Windhoek and Walvis Bay, all our accommodation was in game lodges. Both they and the guest houses provided a very high standard of accommodation in beautiful settings with excellent meals and facilities. The visit was during the rainy season so we encountered muddy wet gravel roads. Having a 4x4 vehicle proved a good choice. The fact that it was the rainy season also meant that in Etosha the animals were more difficult to see than in the dry season when they gather at the waterholes - but in spite of that we had good views of lion, cheetah, giraffes & rhino.

They were very responsive in terms of planning our itinerary to suit our interests in birdlife and wildlife and in amending their initial proposals when we asked for changes. The advice we received about vehicle hire was very helpful. We felt the itinerary was good value in terms of the standard of accommodation and the excursions we did. When we ran into problems at the start because we managed to arrive to pick up the hire car without our driving licences they were very solicitous and kept in close touch with us by phone until we had organised substitute documentation and were able to collect the hire car and leave Windhoek.

Stunning, breathtaking . Saw everything that was on my wishlist.More visually awesome that I had expected.

Every place they selected was incredible. It was all organised like clockwork. Every part of their service was faultless. We were very fussy about what we wanted and they obliged us in every aspect. Superb. Expert Africa, (they are) Highly personalized individual service

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~!
