"My Sep 2024 trip to Zambia"
"My Sep 2024 trip"
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.

"Kafue and South Luangwa Sep 2024 "
Kafue was new to us, then we went back to south Luangwa for our fourth visit.
The safari lodges were all of a high standard, although Ila was not really our sort of place, as it seemed more like a hotel than a traditional safari lodge.
The guides make the trip, and the wildlife viewing and standard of guiding was superb, especially in south Luangwa." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari
"My Sep 2024 trip"
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."

None. the service from Tracy is always excellent." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari
"My Aug 2024 trip"
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
"South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi August 2024"
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

No, everything went very smoothly!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
"My Aug 2024 trip"
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
