"3rd wonderful visit to Luangwa"
I visited Zambia between 22 Sep 2010 and 7 Oct 2010
"This is a star holiday. All the senses are fully alert during the walking trips which is what we like best. Zambia is such a friendly country and the lodges work very well. We simply love these trips and hope to return.
Many thanks to Claire and Chris who helped us choose once again to go back to this bit of paradise.

"Found everything we were looking for"
I visited Zambia between 15 Sep 2010 and 28 Sep 2010
"Just amazing.
We wanted to experiment a walking safari and it was like a dream out of space, out of time.
We appreciated to spend five days with a very small group of people that we got to know better than in a car safari.
We enjoyed visiting Kawaza village and school to meet local people.

"Zambia trip"
I visited Zambia between 10 Sep 2010 and 25 Sep 2010
"Management, guides, general staff superb.
Transfers worked like clockwork and there was always someone to guide us to the next destination.
Apart from Busanga game was excellent as were the three camps.
Shiwa was an wonderful experience as already mentioned.
Only downside was the tsetses in Kafue, would actually prevent us returning there.

As previous users of Wilderness camps in other African countries it would be helpful to see in your brochure which ones belong to them." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

I visited Zambia between 9 Sep 2010 and 20 Sep 2010
"Wonderful to be back in the valley and Kapani and Tafika were fabulous.
The trip was spoiled somewhat by Mwaleshi which was disappointing as this was my first trip to North Park and I'd been looking forward to it.

"A wonderful first visit to Zambia"
I visited Zambia between 5 Sep 2010 and 14 Sep 2010
"Our trip to Zambia was very well organised and all ran very smoothly. All lodges were different but great in their individual way. It was a fantastic introduction to Zambia. The recommendations of where to stay in Zambia suited us very well and the information available about each lodge was very accurate.
We were impressed with the fluidity of all transfers and how helpful everyone we dealt with was." Read full review: 9 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari
