A wonderful trip!

Zambia between 28 Nov 2010 and 6 Dec 2010

Trip rating: Excellent
"Zambia continues to be one of the great holiday destinations.

The level of professionalism seems to increase each time I visit, and the people, with their charming and helpful attitudes, make a holiday there very special There are too many members of staff in the lodges to mention individually, but our thanks go out to them all for making our stay with them memorable in every way.

Thank you, Lucy, for organising everything, and I will certainly be in touch when organising my next trip to Africa.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

No, you seem to have covered everything."

Sindabezi

Sindabezi

"Unique location - wonderful experience"

2 nights Arrived 29 Nov 2010
"As a "2 centre" holiday I don't think Sindabezi followed by Luangwa Safari Lodge could be bettered for small group such as we were, wanting a really "special" time. 5 of our group of 7 had never been to Zambia before and they are all determined to return as soon as possible.

I don't know what to rave about first - the wonderful position (we never saw anyone else on a boat on this part of the Zambezi during our entire stay bar the occasional local fishermen) the unfailingly helpful and charming people who looked after us as though our happiness and wellbeing was their only concern, the amazing food, the elephant and hippos which came by to visit...................the list goes on and on!!!!

We didn't really have quite enough time to do it all justice and, another time, I would opt for 3 nights so that we could actually lounge round the island a little more. Never mind, a perfect excuse to return!"

"Luangwa Safari Lodge - AMAZING!"

4 nights Arrived 1 Dec 2010
"Shortly before we left the UK we were offered a complimentary "up-grade" from Nkwali to the Lodge, which we were delighted to accept!! What an amazing experience! Words failed us as we arrived at the Lodge - it is stunning from an architectural point of view, and the way it is laid out overlooking the water hole makes it hard for you to tear yourself away for a walk/game drive! The elephant were there to greet us on arrival and they seemed to appear whenever we did!

Once again, the people who looked after us were wonderful and could not have been more helpful nor more charming company. A huge amount of thought and effort went into making my birthday incredibly special (surprise picnic brunch at the end of the morning walk - everything transported to a lovely spot by a water hole), birthday tea (with iced cake) and special performance by a local theatre group at Nkwali, drive with champagne sundowners, then a delicious dinner!

There seemed to be someone present to anticipate anything we might want at any time - a really amazing place to stay - nothing seemed to be too much trouble!"
