Zambia

Zambia is well known for excellent guiding and top-class walking safaris.

...while some bushcamps in the South Luangwa exclusively offer walking safaris.

There's always plenty of time in between activities to relax with a drink...

...and watch the local wildlife!

From the smaller animals...

...to the biggest - there's a huge amount of game to be viewed in the different parks.

...you can find more luxurious lodges here as well...

...and every camp goes the extra mile to provide special touches to your safari.

"My Sep 2015 trip"

I visited Botswana and 2 other countries between 1 Sep 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"We thoroughly enjoyed our trip of a lifetime we couldn't have asked for more.

The itinerary was perfect and many thanks to Megan from Expert Africa for her help and knowledge.

My one and only comment on my whole trip would be that our journey home from Abu Dhabi could have been changed and we could have flown back to Manchester which would have been a little easier.

You are doing an excellent job we had a wonderful holiday with no problems and I am sure if we had you gave us ample telephone numbers and contacts to help us well done Expert Africa.👏👍😃" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 3 on a Botswana safari

"A very enjoyable trip"

I visited Zambia between 1 Sep 2015 and 15 Sep 2015
"This is familiar territory for us, and so we knew what to expect and were not disappointed.

The usual excellent service from Expert Africa.

The "meet and greet" at Lusaka is also very welcome: departure tax pre-paid, and being ushered into the VIP channel saves any anxiety.

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Zambia between 29 Aug 2015 and 8 Sep 2015
"It was a wonderful week + with the family in Zambia. We would have changed a few minor decisions if we had it to do over again, but that said, it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget. Everything was well organized, we loved the camps and lodges that we stayed at. We all gained lots of weight because the food was so good.

The wildlife was amazing and we just couldn't believe how much we saw, even just on our first day in the bush. The guides were excellent. Thanks for arranging this vacation with us." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Zambia between 29 Aug 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"This holiday was one of the best of our lives. On every level - the wildlife, the people, the landscape, the camps - it was an adventure we will never forget.

Maruska advised us very well - we were delighted to be able to do some walking, but glad we didn't do too much more on our initial trip, as we saw so much more wildlife from the vehicles. Each of the camps had its own style and personality, so nothing felt repetitious and it was great to be exposed to two very different national parks.

We're already longing to return to Africa and some of our camps so will plan to be in touch!

"Trip of a lifetme, dream come true"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 28 Aug 2015 and 10 Sep 2015
"I've dreamed of visiting Africa for 45 years. As such, the expectations were great and I wondered if reality could ever live up to the imaginings.

Well, it did. What a gift, to live my dream. Thank you Freddie and colleagues (you were fantastic!) for your recommendations, attention to every detail and making this the trip of a lifetime. Not only for me but for my travelling companions. We all agree - trip of a lifetime!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2015 trip of a life time with my Dad"

I visited Zambia between 22 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug 2015
"The whole experience was 100% first class from my first enquiry with Claire, to her proposed plan, to slotting my Dad into the trip at a later date. For anyone a bit hesitant to travel to new places there was great ground support from when we landed in Lusaka to our departure at the end of our trip.

I have no hesitations about recommending Expert Africa and Robin Pope Safaris. It was without a doubt the trip of a life time!" Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"My Aug 2015 trip"

I visited Zambia between 21 Aug 2015 and 1 Sep 2015
"This was a very well put together trip. Although we spent a minimum number of nights at each camp (2) Robin Pope safaris moved all our luggage seamlessly and we were able to have a transfer and drive at the same time!

I would also highly commend Robin Pope for their ability to help us through Lusaka and Livingston airports.

Particularly helpful was their ability to get us through the diplomatic channel when getting our visa into Zambia!

"Our Zambezi and Chobe trip"

I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 17 Aug 2015 and 23 Aug 2015
"Our trip was fabulous! All the transfers - of which there were plenty and complicated - were excellent. Even down to our final transfer to the airport where our driver David from Wild Horizons gave us a Zambian Quiz to complete our trip!! Great! All the drivers were very attentive and made us feel completely at ease during our 3 country and two river crossings!

Our whole trip went without a hitch and we had a wonderful experience.

Sorry - I can't. The service from Expert Africa was superb. We will definitely use your expertise again when the time comes for another trip in the future.
Many many thanks" Read full review: 6 nights in Africa; 4 on a Zambia safari

"Memorable trip to Zambia"

I visited Zambia between 16 Aug 2015 and 3 Sep 2015
"It was with great excitement that I was returning to Zambia (this time from the 17th of August to the 4th of September 2015) and the whole trip was once again a truly fantastic experience. Travelling solo is not a problem and you are made welcome everywhere.

A big Thank you to Freddie Sutton who arranged my itinerary: From our first contact, he was extremely pleasant, helpful & efficient and able to answer promptly (and in detail) any query I had.

On this trip, I visited Kafue for the first time and would recommend Busanga Bush camp as a starting point when travelling to Zambia. I was really looking forward to returning to South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi. By choice, I revisited Chongwe River Camp. The alternative camps suggested by Freddie were an excellent combination.

I was hoping to see Sables and Wild Dogs on this trip, which did not happen, but had plenty of other amazing sightings . The fishing in Lower Zambezi was fantastic, and once again I learnt some more fascinating wildlife facts from the knowledgeable Guides in various camps.

A special thank you also to "Tours Africa": Dave and his friendly team are punctual and efficient. They were also of great help liaising with other people to successfully retrieve and forward my lost luggage. Dave went out of his way to source an alternative camera for me why my own stopped working at the beginning of my trip... Fantastic service

Expert Africa's level of service is beyond expectations with excellent personal touch from start to finish.
