Tailor-made South Africa Holiday Traveller Reviews

We toured by self driven car over 4 weeks from Cape Town to Port Elisabeth via Hermanus and the Garden Route and then returned back to Cape Town via Oudtshoorn and Franschhoek. This tour, even if only able to go one way, needs as much time as you can afford. We stayed 3 or 4 nights at most places so did not feel rushed and were not perpetually unpacking and repacking. The highlights were Quatermains Camp on Amakhala, Fairview House at Plett and Galenia Estate at Montagu. We travelled in November but this proved too late for whale spotting.

Claire was very helpful in guiding our route and accommodation choices. We were allowed to book certain accommodation direct, where we definitely wanted to stay there but it wasn't on Expert Africa's list.

Wonderful trip back to our happy place--the African bush. The sights, the bird song, the smells--there is nothing else like it. Added a few days at Babylonstoren and then a final few nights in Capetown. It was fabulous.

Expert Africa are our go-to for trips to AFrica. Their expertise is exceptional and their trip planning impeccable.

Vic Falls, Cape Town (Constantia), Franschoek, Galenia (Little Karoo), Long Beach /Cape Penisular. Fantastically well organized trip with splendid accommodation and activites at all places.

Incredible local knowledge, they find fantastic lodges and advise superbly on the itenery we suggest making sensible alterations because of the depth of their knowledge

Our experience of three trips there tells us that holidays to the Kgalagadi Transnational Park in Southern Africa are difficult for us to put together independently. Hence I invariably consult the experts and I know that of UK firms nobody has better experience and expertise in this area than Expert Africa. They put together a package that gave us an 18 day holiday including 12 nights in the park and hence the opportunity to see the game and bird life of that extraordinary area. They do the necessary research on the places we are to visit and the routes we should take so I travel full of confidence - rather important for those of us of advancing years!

Expert Africa. I use nobody else for my regular trips to Southern Africa

We spent five days in Cape Town and then took a privately arranged photography tour in southern Namibia for ten days. When this tour ended, we spent eight days in northern Namibia. Beautiful scenery, amazing adventures, an outstanding guide. Fabulous experiences. One of our best trips.

Our accommodations and transports in Cape Town were arranged by Expert Africa. After our privately booked photography tour in southern Namibia, we were met by our Expert Africa/Ultimate Safaris guide for our eight day northern Namibia tour. Superbly arranged itinerary. Outstanding guide. Expert Africa was a pleasure to work with -- responsive to our questions, very knowledgeable about Cape Town and Namibia, listened to our trip wishes and requests, helpful, and with good advice. We give Expert Africa our highest recommendation.

Wonderful places with great food and accommodation

They are so good we return to them time and time again.

3 days in Zambia, including a visits to Chobe National Park, Zimbabwe & a helicopter ride over Vic Falls Then a week in Cape Town

Tracy Lederer at Expert Africa dealt with all our requests and constant changes with professionalism throughout and her knowledge and foresight on everything involved on our whole trip was outstanding I would definitely recommend her and Expert Africa to others

This was a four person holiday (all adults ) to South Africa including Cape Town, the Winelands, Knysna and a safari at a private reserve.

They were very accessible, informative and friendly. I particularly welcomed the ability to talk things over on the phone. We were trying to maximise our experience but needed to ensure it was affordable. This involved a few changes in booking arrangements and these were all done very professionally and without any fuss.

We ahd a fantastic holiday we could not have asked for better. Everything went to plan. Expert Africa did a very good job in arranging everything as we knew they would because it was the third time we have used this company.

Expert Africa do as there name suggests and are experts when it comes to Africa. It was organised well and everything worked out well with no problems.

24 nights in South Africa - perhaps the most beautiful country on Earth - and certainly the best hotels to come home to in the evening. A great country to self drive, we drove along the coast from cape Town to Port Elizabeth and then back through the Karoo

We always use Expert Africa when we visit Africa. They listen carefully to your interests and needs and then deliver exactly what you ask for - and then some! ....and their brochure is a "coffee table book"!
