Two week safairi in Botswana and Zimbabwe

A fantastic trip visiting four camps in the Okavango Delta and Zimbabwe with a night at Victoria Falls on the transfer from the Delta to Zim. We had visited the camp in the Delta before so knew what to expect but it didn't disappoint. This was our first time in Zim, staying at one camp in the Hwange NP and two in Mana Pools. Each was very good in its own way and we would be more than happy to go back. All stitched together by our travel ...

Excellent safari and one we will never forget!

On our 3 week stay in Hwange NP, Zimbabwe, our wish was to spend the maximum time game viewing. And this was what we got, from the moment we stepped off the aircraft at Manga airstrip until the time we left. Absolutely brilliant! We were looking for small basic bush camps and the 4 camps we stayed in ranged from the more basic to those with slightly more comfort. Each provided their own unique experience, and even the more basic camps were ...

On our 3 week stay in Hwange NP, Zimbabwe, our wish was to spend the maximum time game viewing. And this was what we got, from the moment we stepped off the aircraft at Manga airstrip until the time we left. Absolutely brilliant! We were looking for small basic bush camps and the 4 camps we stayed in ranged from the more basic to those with slightly more comfort. Each provided their own unique experience, and even the more basic camps were extremely comfortable. In a country that is currently experiencing a food and fuel shortage, it is unbelievable how these camps still manage to keep providing such an excellent service. And how they manage to provide such good food and in such quantities. We have both come back several pounds heavier!! In all the camps, the staff were efficient and friendly and the guiding was exceptional. It was great to see that people living and working in that environment all the time are still so passionate about the wildlife around them. The available activities such as game drives, walks, and using the hides, gave a good variety, and made for an excellent experience with some extremely close encounters with the wildlife! With all wildlife you can never guarantee what you will see, and it is very much dependent on time of year and weather conditions. Overall we had an abundant and excellent wildlife experience to make for a really great safari, and one we will never forget!

Expert Africa is very efficient and Tom took into account everything we wanted from the outset, spending some time to juggle things around to fit in with timings, availability and budget.

A great safari in Zimbabwe --more people should go !

Excellent lodges scattered across the huge country. Needed a lot of long distance travel but it was worth it. Lots of Elephants and excellent sighting of cheetahs, also lots of birds. Well organised and no unpleasant surprises.

True African wilderness experience

A documentary feature on TV inspired us to embark on a walking safari in Zimbabwe. After much research we decided on Camp Hwange, Bush Camp and Victoria Falls. Expert Africa helped us immensely in this process. We have done mountaineering holidays, driving holidays and beach holidays around the globe and safari holidays in Asia; but this African Safari has been one of the better ones.

Right from the time we reached out to Expert Africa to plan our trip, till the time we confirmed our itinerary and made the bookings, Expert Africa helped us plan each step meticulously. They also helped us make better decisions. They were considerate in their pricing and were able to accommodate certain last minute changes. Our experience was as exactly as they had promised - great ! Extremely happy with the overall service provided by Expert Africa. We absolutely recommend Expert Africa as travel consultants if one is planning a holiday in Africa.

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.

A varied and exciting safari to Zimbabwe

Three safaris rolled into one - Mana Pools, Lake Kariba and Hwange. A great combination - smoothly executed from start to finish.

This was our 6th trip booked with Expert Africa, with a seventh booked for next year. We have always been more than happy with the service we have received both before and after the holiday. The EA staff are always very keen to help with all our queries and requests. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Wonderful fist safari experience

We spent 7 nights at the Elephant Camp, Somalisa Camp and Camp Hwange in Zimbabwe and had a wonderful first safari experience. Hwange national park offers an excellent range of wildlife and, unlike other popular parks in Southern Afirca is not too crowded with 4x4s. The guides are of a very high standard and the camps were very comfortable.

Very responsive, friendly and accommodating. Expert Africa team are very efficient at responding to requests and questions, our only suggestion was that, as first time safari travellers we realised that we would have benefited from a little more 'hand holding' before travelling as we would have tweaked our itinerary and packing had we had a little more information on points we didn't think to ask before travelling.
