Namibi - a two week tour

We are a family of five and thoroughly enjoyed our two week self drive holiday in Namibia. Expert Africa organised our routes and accommodation and the entire holiday was a huge success. We saw most of the places in Namibia that any traveler would want to see and so many wonderful animals. We stayed in remote lodges and towns and we enjoyed everything from Sand Boarding on the Dunes to the magnificent watering holes of Etosha. This was ...

Expert Africa provided us with everything we needed from advance planning to guide books for our wonderful holiday. Sabina was an excellent agent and I can't fault any part of our trip and the organisation of it; we would recommend and re-use Expert Africa.

Holiday of a lifetime in Namibia

We spent 7 days on safari in Namibia and then another 7 days self drive in Namibia visiting the area around and the sand dunes at Sossosvlei. Expert Africa put this trip together for us and they were absolutely excellent.

Expert Africa were immensely knowledgeable and helpful. We needed to change our itinerary a few times and they were understanding and accommodating. They used their knowledge to ensure we stayed in really lovely places and the safari they booked us onto with Wild Dog Safaris was excellent.

Fabulous trip to Namibia

17 night trip in many locations organised and arranged perfectly by Expert Africa. They clearly are the experts for Namibia combining collective experience, great listening to client requirements and first-hand knowledge gained from in-country research trips - and all this in the context of having to completely re-do the original itinerary due to more members of the family wanting to come. I cannot rise them highly enough, If only all ...

I cannot rise them highly enough, If only all travel companies were this good.

First class service. Local connections and in-depth knowledge of where and when to go. What is more they listen to what you want and don't impose their own views. Can't stress this enough. Fabulous locations, wonderful accommodation, responsive service.

Beyond beautiful

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, ...

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.

A well-organised visit to an amazing country

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 ...

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.
