Excellent safari in Botswana.
Safari in Botswana contrasting Kalahari, Delta and Savute March with great guiding and comfortable camps.

Rating for tour operator:Expert Africa helped tailor a holiday that gave us the level of guiding and types of camp that suited based on previous experiences and preferences. Faultless service from start to finish.
The team at Expert Africa are absolutely delighted that these travellers had a great trip. It was a pleasure to help them organise their safari, and credit also has to go to the teams at the camps who hosted them.
Fabulous family holiday in Namibia
We enjoyed a self-drive tour of Namibia, taking in an incredible variety of sights and activities, from safari to dune boarding. Accommodation and food was great too. We normally travel independently, on this occasion we used an agent to help put together an itinerary and were delighted with the expert advice and insight they offered.

Rating for tour operator:Great service - our agent at Expert Africa was deeply knowledgeable, and took the trouble to understand exactly what we wanted, and put together the perfect itinerary for us. Very happy with their service.

Fantastic Trip
Wanted to go to Namibia in the rainy season as we are birdwatchers and thought the birds would be better to view. As it turned out there is a drastic shortage of water in Namiba! The booking went smoothly. We booked our own flight and EA did all the car rental, accommodation and border crossing pick ups etc. Some of lodges were empty and we were the only ones . This meant that some of the activities they usually offer were not running - boat trips...

Best safari ever
I visited Botsawana moving from the Kalahari Desert, to Chobe National Park and then the Okavango Delta. With Expert Arica's help I stayed with 3 different companies lodges, Wilderness Safaris, Desert and Dunes and Sanctuary. Each lodge had a unique ambience and local wildlife was interesting and varied. The walk with elephants at Stanley's camp and sleeping under the stars at the Kalahari Plains camp were two of the highlights. Expert Africa ...
I visited Botsawana moving from the Kalahari Desert, to Chobe National Park and then the Okavango Delta.

Each lodge had a unique ambience and local wildlife was interesting and varied. The walk with elephants at Stanley's camp and sleeping under the stars at the Kalahari Plains camp were two of the highlights. Expert Africa ensured that all of the arrangements were seamless, the plane transfers were on time and I was met at each transfer point, as a single traveller this gives an additional sense of safety that is very important.
Rating for tour operator:Expert Africa were very helpful in putting together the individual sections of the holiday and provided several different itineraries to choose from. Chloe, the staff person who put together my trip, was responsive, helpful and provided information as soon as she could. The package provided was detailed and left no potential question unanswered. I would recommend them to anyone interested in travelling in Africa and will use them again in the future.
Combination safari and beach vacation in southern Tanzania
We did 3 nights in Selous at Azura Selous, and 4 nights in Ruaha at Kwihala Camp. Both camps were excellent in terms of guiding, facilities and welcoming staff. We were amazed at the abundance and diversity of animals in both locations. This was really the highlight of our trip. We also enjoyed relaxing on the southeast coast of Zanzibar and staying two nights on Chumbe Island. The snorkeling at Chumbe was very good because of the coral ...

We also enjoyed relaxing on the southeast coast of Zanzibar and staying two nights on Chumbe Island. The snorkeling at Chumbe was very good because of the coral gardens. Expert Africa's recommendations were very helpful and all the details were on point.
Rating for tour operator:We used them for the safari camps, Chumbe Island and Stone Town, plus all internal air and transfers. I appreciated the package that they mailed to us prior to the trip - all necessary vouchers, luggage tags etc included in a nice travel folder.
Visually stunning

Rating for tour operator:Been travelling with Expert Africa for over 30 years (it used to be Sunvil Africa) But got in touch and started a relationship with Chris Macintyre (the boss) Always looked after me and still does,he lists me as one of his more adventurous clients! Over the years has always managed to sort me out with any of my wild ideas and that includes a self drive around the Okavango Delta Self drive around Zimbabwe,Malawi the list goes on and on. Never in all this time have had any serious issues always feel safe of he says "its ok" Frankly would not go anywhere else! If Africa is your bag then he and his company is your boy! I spent nearly £40000 with them in the last year alone and always felt I got a good deal (I do check out the competition)
Tanzanian Adventure
We planned a trip to Tanzania to visit friends and to experience safaris and beach holidays. Expert Africa guided us throughout and we found the recommendations to be very reliable. They also organised all our local connections and transfers which all worked without a hitch
