Zambia: reviews from our travellers

"This was our second safari in South Luangwa Park, after an interval of 4 years. We knew the area to visit, relatively distant from the entrance to the Park, as the game is excellent but the game vehicles few so viewing is really good. With help from Expert Africa's Claire we chose 3 camps and they were all excellent. She encouraged us to include a small bush camp and we were pleased that she did as it was probably the best experience and our apprehension about the open air bathroom was misplaced as it was private and enclosed.

Claire was brilliant because she was able to change our three return flights after we had made our booking, to accommodate a private trip to/from Chipata that we had not been able to firm up initially. All our arrangements went smoothly other than delays caused by the airline - as she had provided the contact details of Expert Africa's ground agents in Nairobi we were able to phone and ensure they waited at the airport while our luggage was located."

"A. Apart from Latitude 15, everything was excellent.

The guiding was first class and very productive, this makes all the difference to the enjoyment of a safari to Africa.

We experienced some very special moments that will be treasured." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"We had a fantastic trip. We had a fairly good idea of what we wanted to do from the outset, having travelled reasonably widely in the region before.

Expert Africa listened well, came up with a good itinerary first up and put us in the type of camps that we really like. You can't ask for more than that." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"We made a fantastic trip!

I really want to thank Megan for preparing it so well and for all the little attentions paid everywhere for our anniversary.

Thank you specifically for our anniversary celebration at Royal Livingstone that was fantastic.

Already looking forward to our next trip!" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zambia safari

"The overall trip was a great experience, at times I felt we could have got slightly closer to the animals.
All of staff at Robin Pope are really dedicated and doing a great job which they all do with a feeling for nature and a wonderful country.
The one improvement I did mention to the staff would be to introduce a booklet for bird and animal sightings instead of the closely typed checklist." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zambia safari

I loved your website - being able to compare all the different lodges in one place made a huge difference.

Megan was incredibly responsive, helpful and knowledgable. Thanks very much." Read full review: 3 nights in Africa; 3 on a Zambia safari

"A huge thank you to Freddie and the team at Expert Africa for recommending the itinerary and then making sure everything worked like clockwork.
Arriving at Lusaka airport at the same time as another flight led to a rather full immigration queue but seeing our name on a board waved at the entrance took away any concerns about finding our way around.
This was our first trip to Africa and our first safari and I am sure that it won't be our last indeed we are already planning a trip next year (in our heads at the moment) but will certainly be coming back to Expert Africa to make it real." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
