"My Jun 2024 trip"
I visited Zambia between 30 Jun 2024 and 14 Jul 2024
"The tie between BA and Airlink works extremely well and makes travelling beyond SA straight forward.
We enjoyed the ethos of Remote Africa Safaris very much. Good camps and staff and a lovely remote feel.
The wildlife in north luangwa is skittish and elusive. But we enjoyed the walking very much, and the more prolific and habituated wildlife of the South Park.
We enjoyed the RAS flights with Lian very much. He is very personable as well as a good pilot and a great asset to RAS." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"My Jun 2024 trip"
I visited Zambia between 13 Jun 2024 and 28 Jun 2024
"I really enjoyed going on Safari in Zambia for the first time after many safaris in other parts of Africa.
Very friendly and relaxed experience, less commercial and crowded than Tanzania and Kenya.
Visited the Lower Zambezi and South and North Luangwa parks and especially loved North Luangwa which is still an incredibly unspoiled and wild place. A real wilderness experience !
I loved the abillity to do long walking safaris mixed with more traditional game drives and boat/canoe safaris.
Exceptional guiding and overall great game viewing with the highlight being 3 consecutive days of watching a pack of 17 wild dogs hunting/killing buffalo, waterbuck and impala." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari

"My Oct 2023 trip"
I visited Zambia between 11 Oct 2023 and 25 Oct 2023
"I absolutely loved this trip.
Having only been to Botswana before, but also knowing the kind of camps I enjoy, Chris and Megan Green were able to consult with me regarding where and what I wanted to see in Zambia. They were bang-on in their suggestions. (I absolutely loved the walking camps - you guys are rock stars). I know, the suggestion for team member shows Chris McIntyre, but a special mention has to please go out to Megan Green who put this whole trip together, and dealt with all my questions and concerns.
Expert Africa, are indeed every indicator of their name. They are just simply the experts. I trust in every aspect of the process......the knowledge they possess of all the areas is unmatched. A very special thank you to Chris McIntyre, and Megan Green to put together this first trip to Zambia - with mind for future travels.
I absolutely loved the feeling of raw, real, authentic, rugged Zambia.
It was everything I'd hoped for and more." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

They know Africa inside out and their people have visited the destinations, so they know what they are talking about and can tailor make your trip to suit your needs.
They are very professional and helpful - I cannot recommend them enough." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

I visited Zambia between 1 Sep 2023 and 10 Sep 2023
"Excellent!
I have travelled with Expert Africa before and Lucy Copson organised a most enjoyable safari for me to the North Park.
Her detailed local knowledge and grasp of the travel 'logistics' made all go very smoothly, thank you Lucy.
I haven't completed the detailed animal sightings sections, but just to say they were excellent : lion, buffalo, elephant, leopard, hippo, wild dog, various antelope etc etc!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"My Oct 2022 trip"
I visited Zambia between 6 Oct 2022 and 23 Oct 2022
"A wonderful trip including returns to old favourite camps and exciting newcomers. Remote Africa Safaris, as ever, did not disappoint and their new camp Takwela is a great addition to their circuit.
Despite many trips to Luangwa this was only my second visit to Lower Zambezi, and I was quite blown away by the density of wildlife and the beautiful scenery. The atmospheric Winterthorn forests make a stunning backdrop for photography.
Thanks to Claire for the tireless rearranging of multiple trips over the last 2 years!" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 15 on a Zambia safari

The only disappointment was the game viewing at Little Vumbura which was below exceptions, however the camp itself was great." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari
