"My Jun 2022 trip"
I visited Zambia between 9 Jun 2022 and 25 Jun 2022
"My 14 day stay in the Luangwa valley was a wonderful safari. I loved the landscape, wildlife was abundant, especially seeing the wild dogs and so many leopards was impressive. The guiding is of a very high level, which I appreciate. All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
My trip was postponed twice, and I want to thank ExpertAfrica/Lucy Copson and the camps (Robin Pope Safaris and Shenton Safaris) for their flexibility." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 16 on a Zambia safari

"Jun/Jul 2022 trip Namibia/Zambia/Rwanda"
I visited Namibia and 3 other countries between 8 Jun 2022 and 7 Jul 2022
"Our holiday was outstanding.
We weren't sure what to expect travelling to Africa so soon after international borders started to open again, but we were delighted with how quickly tourism has found its feet again in Namibia, Zambia and Rwanda. Our self drive in Namibia felt perfectly safe, and our first time to Zambia now won't be our last.
Claire did a great job with our covid delayed trip. Fantastic support on the trip with CV 19 testing issues for Rwanda as a result of delayed airlines. Accommodation particularly in Zambia was outstanding." Read full review: 29 nights in Africa; 15 on a Namibia trip

"My Jun 2022 Zambia trip"
I visited Zambia between 4 Jun 2022 and 21 Jun 2022
"My trip to Zambia was stunning.
The itinerary was sympathetically worked out keeping my preferences and budget firmly in mind. Everything went like clockwork and I was able to relax and really enjoy the whole experience, despite the extra demands and requirements covid has brought to travel today.
Expert Africa was reassuring and encouraging and the trip exceeded all my expectations. The knowledge and information available through Expert Africa was invaluable in putting together a trip I shall never forget and right throughout the journey I knew Expert Africa had my back should something go wrong. This let me relax and thoroughly enjoy an unforgettable African holiday.
Zambia's wildlife and facilities at my destinations were amazing. The friendliness and professionalism of the people involved made the experience very enjoyable.
I hope this won't be my last trip with Expert Africa to the beautiful continent." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari

"My June 2022 trip"
I visited Zambia between 3 Jun 2022 and 14 Jun 2022
"The overall trip was amazing. Two different locations Lower Zambezi and Luangwa. Three camps each one different.
Old Mondoro small intimate bush camp. Puku ridge luxurious and Chiawa some where in between. Interesting the habitat from Old Mondoro and Chiawa is quite different even though only 40 kms down/ upstream.
Seeing both Leopards and Wild dogs make a kill was very special and a rare event on safari.

"I would do it again, but not in May!
I prefer a hotter climate and feel that the animal sightings are easier in early September.

"My May 2022 trip"
I visited Zambia between 19 May 2022 and 1 Jun 2022
"I thought my first trip would be 'enough' and now I'm thinking, "Maybe a third time".
Zambia is an amazing destination for a safari (I tell everyone who will listen) - the range and volume of animals/birds, the expert knowledge and skills of the guides.
