I'm going again
Zambia between 17 Sep 2007 and 6 Oct 2007
"The whole experience was fabulous. The camps were luxurious and the whole point of going, ie the animals, was worth every penny. Loads of pictures to edit which will serve as a fond reminder of one of the best holidays ever.
I would also like to give a special thank you to Anna Devereux who handled the booking. She is a very efficient agent who was only too pleased to help sort out any problems (which she did without fuss), and her advice and tips were all very welcome and useful. She is a huge asset to Expert Africa."

Tafika
"The best camp"
3 nights
Arrived
25 Sep 2007
"This place, with the walking camps over the river, feel almost like home. It was great to see old friends and the high standards encounterd previously were maintained.
All aspects of the visit were excellent and if I was to choose 1 place only to go back to then this would be it. Great fun and homely. They even do haircuts now as long as it's not too fancy."

Kapani Lodge
"A good end to my trip"
4 nights
Arrived
2 Oct 2007
"A more business-like approach with less of a family feel.
Standards however very high and probably had the best food of all the camps I visited."
