Zambia: reviews from our travellers
Unedited reviews written by our most recent Zambia travellers
"fantastic"
"My Aug 2013 trip"
All the transfers were seamless, which is always really nice when they work.
Exceeded our expectations overall and would highly recommend Tracy and Expert Africa to anyone travelling to Namibia, Botswana. and Victoria Falls.
Her knowledge of the area and what to expect was invaluable.
Wish we had more time." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 7 on a Namibia trip
"This trip lived up to all our expectations"
Many thanks for helping us to have such a great introduction to Africa. We will be back!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Perhaps you could explain the varied nature of some of the transfers more clearly. We were surprised by the number of different drivers we had going from Livingstone to Muchenje and the transfer to the small boat across the Zambesi seemed somewhat precarious, (and hilarious!) but having said that it did all work! It was not quite what we expected but certainly gave us a feeling of adventure and Africa from the start!
I think that the organisation is to be congratulated on such an efficient and personal service. Many thanks" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 4 on a Botswana safari
"Our Aug/Sept 2013 trip"
The whole trip was seamless - I do not wear a watch so have no idea of date or time and I didn't need one. Whenever we were supposed to move on, we were told in good time and passed from one place to another. So relaxing - Expert Africa's planning had everyone where they should have been when they should have been. Thank you so much." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Zambia safari
"Wonderful trip to Zambia"
I was a bit nervous at the beginning as at 74 it was her first trip to Africa ever, but everything was perfectly organized and the staff at all 4 camps/lodges were extremely warm and welcoming so that she felt perfectly looked after at all times.
Thanks to Claire's perfect planning and the great people at the camps, we had a fantastic time together and enjoyed every minute of our holiday!

"Unforgettable safari"
Five nights in Lower Zambezi was probably a bit long for me, as the game was not as good, but it is a beautiful area and good for relaxing." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"Amazing trip to Zambia"
The itinerary was perfect, the accomodations excellent, the wildlife spectacular and as one of multiple highlights we saw even wild dogs on our transfer from Chikoko Tree Camp to Lunagwa River Camp when passing the Nsefu sector - really amazing!
Hope to come back soon to these beautiful places!!!

"My Aug 2013 trip"
Tracy Lederer was the person who I dealt with. She was fantastic. Really pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable and quick to respond. Was really impressed.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
I was really surprised it was originally suggested that a 'normal car' would suffice. We upgraded to a 2 wheel drive SUV and were glad that we did. While you could have probably done the trip in a 'car' but the chances of damaging it would be quite high due to its low ground clearance. Also, driving along the tracks would have been far from comfortable. I recommend that a 2 wheel drive SUV should be the standard car you suggest."
