"More wildlife than ever"
I visited Zambia between 3 Sep 2010 and 18 Sep 2010
"We stayed in some great places and saw more wildlife than ever before (as much leopards as on our five previous trips to Africa combined).
We met a lot of nice people, some of who we will try to stay in contact with. We will definitely return to Zambia someday. A very diverse trip!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Perhaps you should market yourself more in the rest of Europe (outside the UK). During our trip we only met British people who booked with Expert Africa. People from other countries (e.g. the Netherlands) would not immediately think of Expert Africa when looking for a travel agent, while you're definitely the best we've had so far (after many Dutch disappointments)."

"The best ever."
I visited Zambia between 18 Aug 2010 and 30 Aug 2010
"This was the best trip we ever had. It was only spoiled by:
. pre-booking very significant hiccups (our trip was for its main part "organised" by Anna Devereux....) and we met people while in Zambia who had the same encounter.
. Kaingo, definitely a no-return
. BA return flight" Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"Another good trip"
I visited Zambia between 18 Aug 2010 and 2 Sep 2010
"As a whole the trip was excellent, although somewhat marred by our time at Kaingo which was disappointing and Pioneer camp and lack of food on the return flight.
However, this does not detract from what was on the whole a very enjoyable trip.
Lucy was like a breath of fresh air after the earlier mishaps with regards to our booking and we much appreciated Chris's offer of the flight out upgrade." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

I visited Zambia between 26 Jun 2010 and 10 Jul 2010
"the balance of a week in the peaks at Robin Pope Camps in South Lunganga and six night at sausage tree was just right and provided good value.
Pioneer Camp would have been fine when the weather was hot but not during the coldest month of the year. it was a sad end to a wonderful trip and as cost wasnt an issue for this night then poor advice from you." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

"An excellent and amazing trip"
I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 18 Jun 2010 and 3 Jul 2010
"We enjoyed every moment of our trip to South Luangwa & Lake Malawi and are left with some wonderful memories & over 1400 photographs to sort through. Expert Africa's travel arrangements were faultless and the help given in planning our trip very knowledgeable. This was our second trip with Expert Africa and we would certainly recommend them and will use them again.
We have stayed in excellent camps and would recommend Robin Pope & The Bushcamp company equally. The game viewing was excellent and the hospitality everywhere was beyond expectations.
The weather in late June was not too hot during the day and not too cold at night, couldn't have been better." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"We both thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and were sorry to leave.
Would love to go back again as the whole experience was fantastic especially the walking and the treatment by the fantastic staff and guides at all the bush camps." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"Unforgettable, unbelievable - unrepeatable"
I visited Zambia between 16 Jun 2010 and 28 Jun 2010
"From our first enquiry (taken by Anna) to our return home, your company's arrangement were faultless and comprehensive. Our bush camp experience exceeded all possible expectations and we would recommend the Bushcamp Company without reservation.
We appreciate that BA is the only airline serving Lusaka, but we would have reservations about flying with them again.
As we have said in the feedback, the Pioneer Camp was disappointing - perhaps there are better alternatives.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We think this feedback form is fantastic. Many times we have taken the trouble to write to other comapanies after a trip, and we never get evan an acknowledgement, and get the feeling they don't really want it. You obviously do. We shall certainly consider travelling with you again, and have no hesitation in recommending you to our friends." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari
