"Our Sep/Oct 2024 trip"

I visited Zambia and 2 other countries between 11 Sep 2024 and 19 Oct 2024
"This was another wonderful trip booked by Maruska. Her suggestions were great and she patiently put up with us changing things around until we had the perfect itinerary. Thank you so much Maruska!

We also thank Maruska for re-booking hotels and transfers when we had our international flight cancelled. And thank you to Chris when an internal flight was delayed and onward travel arrangements had to be re-booked. Aside from those flight problems our whole trip was wonderful. Accommodation was excellent and transfers went smoothly.

We were so happy with this trip that Maruska has just booked another safari for us next year." Read full review: 38 nights in Africa; 20 on a Zambia safari

"Botswana & Zambia Sept 2024"

I visited Zambia and 2 other countries between 10 Sep 2024 and 3 Oct 2024
"What an adventure!!

Put together expertly by Lucy the entire trip was fabulous from start to finish (with the exception of Pro Flight) including all the local transport arrangements that went smoothly with very nice representatives and drivers.

Unfortunately we were unlucky with water activities due to the unfortunate drought Zambia is currently experiencing but so much to see and do otherwise it did not matter to us.

We can't recommend the camps we stayed at enough they were all different and wonderful in their own way. We thought it was a very good overall combination.

I don't think we would ever go this time of year again as it was far too hot for us. We thought it would be in the mid 30's but many days hit 44+ and without any cooling facilities we found this very uncomfortable. It didn't cool down much at night either. To keep cool they recommend a wet Kikoy laid over you which did help us.

We really don't think you can improve on anything. As always your service is top notch!" Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 17 on a Zambia safari

"My Sep 2024 trip"

I visited Zambia between 4 Sep 2024 and 18 Sep 2024
"Lucy spent quite a lot of time arranging our trip - mostly because we had to book Avios flight with British Airways and availability was sometimes difficult on required dates.

Of particular note, when we arrived at JNB there was a downtime with electricity and the airbridge was inoperable. We had assisted passage though the airport with British Airways and we were taken straight to the transfer desk rather than to the place at which we would be met by one of your team. Lucy was concerned that we may have missed the London to JNB flight and contacted us to find out whether there had been a problem to find out.

Overall we had a great holiday and throughout the whole process were confident about the organisation of the holiday. The arrangements went well with no problems but we were confident that if a problem arose your HQ team of the lodge teams would solve it without any fuss.

We have recommended your organisation to friends who are considering a safari. Since this was our third safari with Expert Africa, demonstrates that we are comfortable with the way in which you conduct business and the quality of the holidays."

"South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi August 2024"

I visited Zambia between 21 Aug 2024 and 1 Sep 2024
"The whole trip was absolutely excellent from start to finish and all the arrangements went like clockwork. Lion Camp/ Anabezi was a great combination, enabling us to experience the varying landscapes and wildlife of South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi in beautiful camps. We would rate both camps equally for comfort, luxury and overall wildlife experience.

We loved the informal, friendly atmosphere of Lion Camp. The wildlife was plentiful, the game drives were full on and we found we did not have time to freshen up before dinner (we could have asked to return a bit earlier, but did not want to miss anything!).

We found the atmosphere at Anabezi slightly more formal, but equally welcoming and friendly. The structure of the day there meant that we had more time to relax between game drives and overall the pace felt more leisurely.

A perfect trip, thank you!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2024 trip"

I visited Zambia between 18 Aug 2024 and 1 Sep 2024
"Maruska and Expert Africa certainly made my trip go seamlessly and I would have no hesitation about recommending them as they took into account everything that I asked for and the information provided was plentiful and clear.

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

"My Aug 2024 trip"

"Another fantastic trip to Zambia! All of the connections went smoothly. I had been to all of the camps except Shoebill Island before, many times, so I knew I would be happy there. This was my fist visit to Bangweulu Wetlands, and quite surprised as to the uniqueness of the area's landscape and land use. I was happy to have been able to see a shoebill in the wild and to visit the African Parks Shoebill Program." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 19 on a Zambia safari
