"A very expensive but fantastic holiday"
I visited Botswana and 1 other country between 17 Sep 2010 and 27 Sep 2010
"This was a fantastic trip and experience.
I enjoyed every aspect: the small aircraft flights low over the delta, the landscapes, the camps and the fact that animals could come and go, all the activities, the gin and tonic sundowners every day, the food, the interaction with the staff (and some of the guests!), the flora and, of course, the fauna.

I would like to know why you don't go to Kenya." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 6 on a Botswana safari

"Found everything we were looking for"
I visited Zambia between 15 Sep 2010 and 28 Sep 2010
"Just amazing.
We wanted to experiment a walking safari and it was like a dream out of space, out of time.
We appreciated to spend five days with a very small group of people that we got to know better than in a car safari.
We enjoyed visiting Kawaza village and school to meet local people.

Hard to think how you could have improved it. I think it was a shame we did not listen to the advice regarding our last camp in Botswana and feel she should have told us how little wild life ther was at Selinda. She did inform us the wild life was not as good here but there was very little." Read full review: 33 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

I visited Zambia between 12 Sep 2010 and 27 Sep 2010
"We enjoyed to return to the South Luangwa. The Lower Zambezi was new to us, and was wonderful.
The holiday exceeded our expectations. Thanks to Lucy and all the team at Expert Africa.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We suggest that you include a mention in the Guide to Zambia about the opportunity for visitors to the South Luangwa to help support the Kawaza school and Project Luangwa, if they so wish." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

"Zambia trip"
I visited Zambia between 10 Sep 2010 and 25 Sep 2010
"Management, guides, general staff superb.
Transfers worked like clockwork and there was always someone to guide us to the next destination.
Apart from Busanga game was excellent as were the three camps.
Shiwa was an wonderful experience as already mentioned.
Only downside was the tsetses in Kafue, would actually prevent us returning there.

As previous users of Wilderness camps in other African countries it would be helpful to see in your brochure which ones belong to them." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

I visited Zambia between 9 Sep 2010 and 20 Sep 2010
"Wonderful to be back in the valley and Kapani and Tafika were fabulous.
The trip was spoiled somewhat by Mwaleshi which was disappointing as this was my first trip to North Park and I'd been looking forward to it.
