"My Aug 2024 trip"
We were very grateful for Amanda‘s advice on activities and her assistance in making the trip go very smoothly.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
No, everything went very smoothly!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
"My Aug 2024 trip"
Apart from my flight cancellation (nothing to do with Expert Africa) my entire trip went without a hitch and the the camps that I visited met (or exceeded) expectations, with a high standard of service and organisation.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Not really. The only point that I would raise is maybe the proximity of the rondavels in Nsefu, which is not ideal for people seeking privacy." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari
