Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs L from Ilkley
Our May 2012 Zambia Trip
On this trip, I visited Zambia between 23-May-2012 and 4-Jun-2012 and I travelled with 1 other person.
We had a great trip.
In the future we think we would spend less time travelling to different places but rather spend more time in certain localities. It all goes so quickly that time spent travelling between places feels like lost time.
This trip certainly confirms for us that we much prefer being in owner led, authentic, well managed, unpretentious lodges or camps like Tafika. We would certainly want to spend more time their on our next visit, there was so much to do and it would be good to do it at a more leisurely pace.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We feel that Expert Africa is as good as it can possibly be, we have always been extremely satisfied with your service and would not wish to use any other company to help us with our trips to Africa.
The level of knowledge processed by the team is second to none and is borne out of first hand experience which is invaluable.

We have always believed that acting responsibly is the only way to approach tourism and we're one of
the few companies to hold AITO's original coveted 5-star status for responsible tourism. It's a lead
that others are now following.
