Travel reviews by Mrs D - London
Zambia, October 2011
On this trip, I visited Zambia between 19-Oct-2011 and 29-Oct-2011 and I travelled with 4 other people.
Fabulous. Thank you.
Claire, Chris and Elllie were very helpful in finding just what we wanted, which was quite specific. We discussed Zambia, Malawi and Zimbabwe, before choosing to go again to Zambia. And although I had a good idea of where we wanted to go, having been there quite a lot, Claire was able to help me structure the visit and i think part of its success was very much in the sequence. The arrangements made were absolutely spot on and apart from the ghastly Pamodzi, everthing was absolutely FANTASTIC. It couldn't have been better.
Thanks also for the Bradt guide, which we read constantly and found really helpful.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Not really.
I suppose the cost was the only snag but then we were flying on a private plane and staying in top lodges, a really exclusive tailor made holiday, so what do I expect?
