Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs M from Chelmsford
My Sep 2012 trip
On this trip, I visited Zambia between 27-Sep-2012 and 9-Oct-2012 and I travelled with 1 other person.
Excellent
If you love Africa and safari but are less keen on the cost of Botswana or crowds in Serengeti or Maasai Mara then try South Luangwa or Lower Zambezi in Zambia. Expert Africa, and Maruska Adye in particular, organised a wonderful and faultless trip.
After several visits to Africa we can confirm that the continent's best accomodation, and best value, is the Albida Suite at Chongwe River Camp!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
No - great service, thanks.

Namibia - a wonderful place to visit
On this trip, I visited Namibia between 18-Jul-2009 and 31-Jul-2009 and I travelled with 1 other person.
Excellent
Our trip to Namibia beat all expectations. We had less than two weeks so we concentrated on the central highlands and game spotting. Namibians were, to a person, friendly and helpful.
Olive Grove is a peaceful place to start and wind down at the finish. The choice of Erongo was a great opener, followed by the countless game of Etosha.
Mundulea was the definite highlight, and Okonjima was a great finale as it made sure we saw the cats.
Suggestions for improveMent:
No suggestions, the service was excellent.

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.
