My May 2009 trip

Zambia between 17 May 2009 and 28 May 2009

Trip rating: Good
"The response by Expert Africa was great, well organized and responsive to requests.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

It is good to have feedback from people who have been to the resorts.
Makes a real difference."

Arranged By Lucy Copson


Chiawa Camp

Chiawa Camp

"Chiawa Camp"

3 nights Arrived 17 May 2009
"Chiawa Camp - excellent management, by owners Grant and Lindsay Cumings and by manager Jason. Atmosphere was warm and welcoming, all staff treated guests in the same warm, friendly manner.

Only difficulty was the monkeys were able to open the zippers and get into the rooms, causing havoc in the room and stealing all medications, pills etc. They are working on solving this problem.

Loved being able to boat on the river, from sunset cruises to fishing to canoing."

Toka Leya Camp

Toka Leya Camp

"Toka Leya"

2 nights Arrived 20 May 2009
"Toka Leya - nice location but lacked that special touch that good management brings.

Manager was new and perhaps will get more in stride with time."

Marlin Lodge, Mozambique (this camp has since closed)

"Marlin Lodge"

4 nights Arrived 24 May 2009
"The location is lovely and the cabanas very nice, but the overall experience was bland.

There was not much interaction with management, except for Grant (Chef) and Micheline (PR). As a result the resort lacked soul."
