Tailor-made Zambia Safari Traveller Reviews

Two week sadari to Zambia.

We have used Expert Africa multiple times as they really seem to know the area and specific camps in different locations such that they can best advise on which are most appropriate.

We spent 10 days in the Luangwa Valley in Zambia with Remote Africa Safaris combining day and night game drives and walking in the bush

Expert Africa provide knowledgeable and impartial advice to provide camps and lodges that suit your requirements.

We flew from tne UK via Dubai with Emirates - good flights and decent aircraft. On arrival in Lusaka mid afternoon day 1 we went to Latitude 15 for the night, excellent hotel but quite pricey. We left there at 05:30 to get the early morning flight to Mfuwe - the $10 packed breakfast consisted of two cold croissants and a bottle of water so I'd skip that in future! In South Luangwa we stayed 3 nights at Luangwa River Camp, 3 nights Mwamba Bush Camp and 3 nights Kaingo camp - all good camps, and these 3 together provided a good selection over the 9 days. I would say that was just about perfect fopr the holiday. The guiding from the camps was excellent and we had really good game viewing, especially of wild dog, lion and leopard.

Tour operator was Expert Africa, and Claire Scott was the travel consultant from them that we used. very good - would recommend them to tohers without hesitation.

Visit to South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi National Parks

Expert Africa, Freddie Sutton spent many discussions arranging the trip having to cope with the wishes of3 factions in the family group

During our stay in Zambia we visited South Luangwa and Kafue National Parks. This is a truly beautiful country of varied landscapes and you are assured of a warm welcome by all.

Expert Africa are brilliant tour operators. We have travelled with them regularly over the last18 years and we have always received a first class service. They are very knowledgable about the areas in Africa they serve and can fully advise you to help make the most appropriate arrangements. They offer tremendous back up while you are travelling if you ever need it.

Our eight nights in Zambia's South Luangwa National Park exceeded expectations. We stayed in three different Robin Pope Safaris camps, all in splendid locations. Game viewing was superb throughout.

This was the tenth trip that Expert Africa have organised for us. As always, the professionalism and attention to detail of the staff is outstanding. It is a great pleasure to work with them, and I always have full confidence in all the arrangements they make for us.

We have been on several safaris and for the first time returned to the same game area. This was because the camps that we experienced in the northern part of the Park are excellent with fantastically skilled guides, and with relatively few camps in the area the animals do not get surrounded by game drive vehicles. Great sightings of leopards, lions, elephants, and wild dogs - in the case of leopards we had almost 20 lengthy sightings by day and by night in the course of our 7 days.

Expert Africa are knowledgeable and give sound advice. This was our second time using them. Our travel arrangements were fairly complex but they handled everything perfectly, even changing the dates of 3 flights after we had booked, to accommodate a change of plan. On our return a friend asked us about where we would recommend in Botswana for a honeymoon safari and we put them in touch with Expert Africa and they visited their offices the next day.

We had a five-centre holiday in Zambia, starting with the Victoria Falls before moving to the South Luangwa National Park and then on to the Lower Zambezi National Park.

This was our third safari put together by Expert Africa and they showed yet again how thoroughly they know Africa. All the camps chosen were well-know to their consultant Lucy Copson and lived up to their descriptions. I would have no hesitation in recommending Expert Africa ahead of other premium tour operators to anyone planning a trip and will certainly be consulting them again in the future.

We researched various travel companies dealing with safaris in Africa, and was recommended to Expert Africa who in turn recommended Robin Pope Safaris. we went to the South Luangwa River camps at Nkwali, Tena Tena and Nsefu and had a wonderful and memorable safari experience. The accommodation was excellent and comfortable and the teams at Robin Pope safaris were very knowledgeable, helpful and caring for us to have a memorable safari experience. We saw all the wildlife that we expected and more! We saw live kill events which, whilst a little upsetting reflected how the animals in the wild survived and found food etc.

Expert Africa were excellent in their customer service and care and our Consultant Freddie Sutton went the extra mile to ensure we had the right holiday experience for our first safari. We talked through the various options and were guided with useful information. The itinerary was followed very closely by Robin Pope Safaris and they also spoke very highly of Expert Africa. We were supplied with a travel guide to Zambia written by one of the Expert Africa team- Chris McIntyre which was invaluable and gave us background information on the people and culture, history, politics and economy and covered planning and preparation for the holiday and a guide as to the wildlife that was to be seen in the country-an EXCELLENT publication given to us as part of our travel literature, which also included "Notes for travellers to Zambia".
