Tailor-made Zambia Safari Traveller Reviews

I had a truly excellent two weeks in the South Luangwa national park in Zambia and two parks in Malawi ( Liwonde and Majete ) Everything was arranged perfectly by Expert Africa and worked faultlessly in remote locations. I had a very enjoyable experience and have many good and lasting memories of my trip.

Expert Africa are as the name suggests experts in the field of arranging adventure holidays in various African countries. I have now use them three times , and each time everything has worked perfectly.

Our itinerary was put together by ExpertAfrica and everything run smoothly. The recommended lodges were excellent and matched our needs perfectly. The game drives and walking safaris were fantastic and allowed us to get up close to the animals. As a once in a lifetime holiday it surpassed our expectations. I would recommend Zambia to anybody thinking of a safari but don't tell too many people as its a hidden gem.

Freddie Sutton was knowledgeable helpful and listened to my suggestions and ideas and incorporated them into our final itinerary. The website was very informative as was the pre holiday information. I would definitely recommend ExpertAfrica to anybody thinking of travelling to Africa.

From planning our trip of a lifetime to Zambia, from start to finish, this family holiday was magical. We spent 4 days in South Luangwa (Flatdogs Camp) with out 2 boys, aged 10 and 13, and the wildlife was awesome. We then spent 3 days R&R at Victoria Falls which was spectacular!

Patient, helpful, able to respond to a myriad of questions! Offered a range of options/ quotations based within our budget. They had already organised contingency plans when we were delayed at Dubai which thus affected our subsequent flights. Fortunately we didn't need to revert to the plans, but knowing they were sorted was reassuring. Expert Africa is certainly a company we will be returning to - as well as the many friend and family we have recommended them to.

We stayed at three safari camps in Zambia. Great wildlife encounters, fabulous camps, excelleng guides and charming and attentive camp staff.

Expert Africa and Freddie Sutton were very helpful in putting together an itinerary which perfectly met our needs.

We stayed for a total of 9 nights at 2 luxury bush camps in the Lower Zambezi National Park during June 2017. Expert Africa staff prepared a personalised itinerary based on a detailed discussion with us about what we looked for both in the size and facilities offered at a camp and in locations so that we got exactly what we wanted. We have booked through Expert Africa several times before and have always been very satisfied with their highly personalised service.

Knowledgeable staff who can offered detailed information about both countries and individual camps in Africa, tailoring holidays to exact requirements of their clients.

Once upon a time, like fifty years ago, I lived in Africa but hadn't returned until last month. Now with my husband, a reluctant traveler, and our two young adult children, both eager travelers, we planned a safari to Zambia. I selected Zambia based on its description as having the highest density of animals and the lowest number of tourists, for I wanted to introduce my family to as authentic an African experience as possible, and to me, this meant getting close to the soil. (However, the reluctant traveler in our family would never agree to camping, so "close to the soil" came to be interpreted as a remote and secluded location, even if we always had solid flooring under us at nighttime.) I approached Expert Africa with dreams accumulated over 50 years of waiting, and remarkably, each dream was met. In addition, everyone in the family fell under Africa's spell, even the reluctant traveler. Expert Africa put together an ideal travel package for our family--we started in Livingstone, spent several days memorized by Victoria Falls and exploring local markets, and then flew to South Luangwa National Park, where we did two different safaris. Both experiences were excellent, although quite different one from the other. Both safaris were pretty much exactly as I anticipated they would be, for our tour operator had described them accurately and provided us with detailed information so as to minimize any possible misunderstanding as to what the trip would hold. We saw beautiful sunsets, majestic skies, spectacular stars, wild animals close enough to touch, and unforgettable guides and camp operators. Our travel arrangements and accommodations were precisely communicated to us and unfolded flawlessly. With any luck, I won't have to wait another 50 years before taking my next safari, but this one was definitely worth the wait. And in case it's not obviously apparent, I would never consider using an operator other than Expert Africa.

We dealt with Maruska Adye at Expert Africa. The first time I spoke with her, I talked for 15 minutes telling her my hopes and dreams for our safari, or, as it was referenced in the family, Mom's Dream Trip to Africa. After I finished, she said she'd like to make sure she understood what I'd said, and in 3 minutes flat she not only summarized what I'd said but also captured thoughts that I hadn't yet verbalized. In each of my subsequent dealings with her, she showed herself to be patient, resourceful, efficient, knowledgeable, and unceasingly pleasant! My husband, the reluctant traveler, was an initial skeptic about the trip, so I suggested he talk with Maruska. Within minutes after the conversation began, Maruska had calmed all of his anxieties simply with her impressive knowledge and professionalism. Early in the trip, in Livingstone, our daughter became suddenly ill, and the medic recommended we delay our trip to Mfuwe by a day. Within an hour after I sent an SOS to her, Maruska telephoned me back and within a second hour, she had made all of the necessary changes to our schedule. Maruska gets total credit for the unqualified success of our trip, and if I could deal only with her on all of our future trips, I would be supremely happy. She has the full endorsement of our family.

Our 5 day safari in Zambia was truly wonderful. The accommodation, the staff, the food, the guiding, the game viewing - all were truly fabulous.

Expert Africa truly are the experts in this field. This was my 3rd time of travelling with them, but the 1st time for my wife. They are so knowledgeable and helpful and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anybody looking for a very special holiday in Africa.

Two weekends of travel - on safari at S Luangwa National Park and at Victoria Falls. Lodging at Flatdogs and Waterberry beyond excellent.

Expert Africa planned a perfect itinerary!

My mum and I went to Zambia for 10 days, and spent most of these in South Luangwa NP viewing game on drives. We could not believe the number of animal sightings and thought both the guides we had assigned to us were exceptional in their knowledge and care. The places we stayed were wonderful. We have come home with warm memories of Zambia, which were created thanks to the friendly people we interacted with there.

We received recommendations about where to go that would best suit the time of year and what we were attempting to do. The responses were always very prompt and detailed. The places we stayed were exactly as described.
