Tailor-made Zambia Safari Traveller Reviews

Each year elephants visit the Mfuwe lodge, Mfuwe Zambia, to get to a great old mango tree. When the mango is in fruit (usually late October through December) the elephants may walk through the lobby to get to the fruit. They did that the first and last day of my 4 night stay, and I videoed them both times. My room was a two story (sort of a tree house -- not a tent) overlooking a stream. The crocodile (the name of the room) has a loft, balcony, two toilets, four sinks, a tube and shower, as well as a porch. I counted as many as 13 elephants in my back yard at one time.

Expert Africa is expert. I have been regularly going to Africa since 2000, and I almost never go with the same tour company twice. But with Expert Africa, I just signed up for my third trip -- and second one this year. Needless to say, I am delighted.

We used Expert Africa's excellent website to design our trip to Zambia with 5 adults. We stayed in three different camps in the South Luangwa Park and fell on our feet big time. Every detail was perfect, we had to think about nothing apart from what we would like to drink as a sundowner! The game viewing wildly exceeded our expectations and we have 3500 photos in 6 days. One of our bags went missing on the outward leg and the staff could not have been more proactive in their attempts to retrieve it. We would highly recommend Expert Africa and a South Luangwa safari to the more adventurous holiday maker.

To start with I really just mined their website for information but after doing my research and calling them I was confident that the correct choice had been made. We had to change our dates and flights a few times and nothing was too much trouble. They seemed very confident in what they were doing and we trusted them completely. Our trust was vindicated during our trip as everything was just perfect.

Great animal viewing and super lodges , We absolutely loved The South Luangwa Park and the camps we stayed at. Super guiding and terrific accommodation Please see Expert Agrica for detailed information

Consistently reliable and knowledgeable

We spent 6 nights in South Luangwa National Park, followed by 7 nights on the shores of Lake Malawi. The holiday was excellent and complex transfers worked really well

Expert Africa listened to what we liked and didn't like and put a great trip together which worked like clockwork. Can't praise them enough.

A trip to South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. The trip included stays in 3 game lodges and travel from the UK . All aspects of the trip were organised by Expert Africa. It was a perfect experience for us. We are in our mid 70s but we were able to travel hassle free. We were taken on game drives, in groups of never more than 4, by very competent and interesting guides. We had a number of escorted walks again in small groups. International transport was well organised and all arrangements worked like clockwork

The operator (Expert Africa) put together an excellent package. Our communication was with one member of staff in whom we had complete trust, He built a good rapport with us from the start. We felt that he understood our needs and he certainly delivered a package that was well above our expectation

We had a splendid, wonderful, amazing, "when can I go back"- safari holiday in Zambia! The lodge we booked through Expert Africa met and exceeded by far all our expectations. The service was excellent, the food was delicious, the drinks were always cold and of a very good quality, the location is stunning, the facilities are incredible. The country is also very welcoming to tourists and the people are really very very nice! Loved every minute and can't wait to go back!

We knew which lodge we wanted to book when we contacted our tour operator. However questions do always come up once the trip gets closer and we always received a very friendly and prompt reply. The amount of information we received was also incredible! We will definitely book again with Expert Africa!

This was our ninth safari trip ( all organised by Expert Africa) and we returned to Zambia for the fifth time. The South Luangwa National Park is a wonderful destination, and we enjoyed staying 11 nights in various Robin Pope Safari camps.

All of the arrangements worked perfectly, thanks to the expert help and advice from the team at Expert Africa. They are truly experts about Africa!

We travelled to Zambia for a week's safari in two camps where we saw amazing wildlife and enjoyed fantastic accommodation and meals.

Expert Africa gave us all the help and attention we needed to plan and book our holiday. Their knowledge of the camps we wanted to visit and the areas of Africa we were interested in going to was very detailed. The personal service that Eleanor at Expert Africa offered could not have been more helpful and accommodating and her knowledge was unsurpassed.

We spent 2 weeks in Zambia in the latter part of August and early September. With the superb assistance of Lucy Copson at Expert Africa we put together an itinerary that included 5 different camps. Two in the South Luwanga Park, two in the Lower Zambezi Park and one at Viictoria Falls. We loved each and every camp. The game drives were terrific and we really enjoyed the other activities including the hikes, canoe trips and fishing on the Zambezi River. Based upon all that we had read, we had high expectations for the camps and the safari experience - but our high expectations were met and even exceeded. We can high,u recommend Licy and Expert Africa to anyone thinking about a safari to Zambia. We are selective travelers but we were so pleased with every aspect of our trip that we will be customers of Lucy and Expert Africa again.

Lucy at Expert Africa was terrific to work with. We found her to be super responsive. She was extremely knowledgeable about Zambia and the various camps. Our itinerary was perfect in every respect. No problems. No complaints.

We had an amazing safari week in Zambia, staying at Kafunta River Lodge and Island Bush Camp. The service was superb, food and drink excellent and safari experience beyond expectations, both game drives and walking! We'd highly recommend this to anyone who is wanting to do a safari holiday.

Freddie Sutton from Expert Africa was excellent from the start. My first call lasted 45 minutes, in which he described all of the options within Zambia available to us and relative costs. This was followed by posted details on the options I'd narrowed down on the phone. Once the trip was booked, we received a travel guide and updates from Freddie relevant to our trip, even alerting us to problems experience at Heathrow that may have affected our flights that we'd booked independently! Great local knowledge, very practical. Very impressed!
