"Didn't really know what we wanted to do so were reliant on Amanda's advice. We loved all aspects of Nkwali Lodge ...the Lodge, the staff. the food, the location, the safari trips, walking safari and our guide Perry. He was so enthusiastic about his job and making sure we really enjoyed our stay. Also the hostess Bianca arranged for us to having a morning in town to do a craft workshop and visit a school. Perfect 4 days.

Palm Ridge was a bit of a contrast and we enjoyed relaxing by the Zambezi after several 530am starts. Again the staff were excellent and Tina at activities desk arranged several outings once we recuperated.

There were no hiccups throughout the trip ...we were met at airports, picked up in hotels, Zimbabwe visa organised. All ran very smoothly.

If I had to change one thing I would have stayed an extra night in Lusaka. For 2 reasons ...we loved the Latitude 15 hotel and also it would have been interesting to see centre of Lusaka. However we accept total responsibility as at no point did we ask Amanda to do that for us and also we had a limited no of days for trip.

The whole trip was amazing and far exceeded expectations. Shall thank Keith Drew for recommending Expert Africa." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 5 on a Zambia safari

"very good but the experience was less that hoped for because of the drought." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"The whole trip was put together between Megan Green and ourselves and everything worked like clockwork thanks to her.

Thanks also are due to Tours Africa for their assistance in Lusaka both on arrival and departure. Getting in and out of Zimbabwe would not have been possible without the help of Wild Horizons

We saw many other animals and birds not noted in this feedback but the checklists provided by Robin Pope are very comprehensive. Of particular note are crocodiles, Puku, Kidu, water buck, warthogs and numerous birds particularly eagles.

"I had difficulties at first, because inexplicably a member of the team forgot about my booking and failed to follow through the details.

However on enquiry this was swiftly put right and the trip proceeded exactly as set out, and without any glitches. This was very satisfying as on a safari trip the wheels can come off!

Have to say all my trips with Expert Africa, have proceeded as planned." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"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

"From the initial conversation with Claire Scott as we framed the itinerary to the end of the trip, the service from Expert Africa was faultless.

The deep understanding of what to expect at each camp from having had first hand experience by visiting makes a lot of difference and is a differentiator from some other companies that offer an extremely wide range of trips with 'experts" covering many countries.

"This was our first time using an agent as we typically like arranging our trips ourselves but we couldn't have managed without the Expert Africa team on this occasion.

We had a wonderful time in Zambia and Malawi and the whole trip fitted together seamlessly.

There was one minor mix up made by the staff in our hotel in Lilongwe which Lucy immediately sorted out with the hotel to get us a partial refund." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"This was the second time we have used Expert Africa to organise a safari to South Luangwa and I could not fault the service we received. Amanda was extremely efficient, knowledgeable and accommodated our quite complicated arrangements with patience and attention to detail.

The company they use to facilitate all the pick ups and transfers (Africa Tours) were faultless.

We (a family group of 10) chose to stay at Flatdogs camp (the second time we have been there and hopefully not the last). Flatdogs is the most magical place, perfect location along the Luangwa river, beautiful accommodation, fabulous food, superb guides, lovely staff.

The owners, Ade and Jess could not have been more accommodating and made our stay very special. Thank you." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
