Tailor-made Zambia Safari Traveller Reviews

We went on a 10 night safari in Zambia - 3 nights each at Nkwali and Kapamba in South Luangwa NP, then 4 nights at Old Mondoro in Lower Zambezi NP. Fabulous service, accommodation and guiding at all the camps. Another unforgettable experience.

Once again, we booked with Expert Africa for our safari and, as usual, they were extremely knowledgeable, helpful and efficient. Thanks again Ellie!

We had three safari bushcamp,s,walking and gamedrives finishing with a stay at Stanley Safari Lodge Livingstone to wind down but after seeing rhinos and Victoria Falls we need to return with the help of Expert Africa

We cannot praise this company enough, so very professional in every aspect of there service

We decided to visit Zambia, got in touch with Expert Africa with a rough idea of what we would like and got suggested itineraries and prices. We even got a free travel book about Zambia. Just . before leaving home for the airport we had a phone call telling us there was a delay, The plane was late leaving Dubai so we would miss our onward connections. Making us miss a full day from a safari camp. Claire from Expert Africa kept in touch, letting us know when she had rebooked air tickets in Africa for us and informed the camp we would be arriving a day later than expected. Very important as our trip to the lower Zambezi involved a small plane and pick up from a remote airstrip to the camp. Everything went like clockwork from then on, our new air ticket was waiting in Lusaka as promised. The holiday was a dream come true, everything we could ever hope for and more.

This is the third time we have booked a holiday in Africa with this company. We have seen other African Safaris advertised with other travel operators but they don't seem to offer the same level of expertise. Expert Africa try to find out exactly what we wanted for a holiday and advised us accordingly. They have recommended good alternatives when camps we wanted were unavailable. We have been very happy with service offered in past years when everything has gone exactly to plan. It's when the unexpected happens you see how good a travel firm really is. This year a problem with airline delay was smoothed over seamlessly, new onward flights and remote transfer was sorted for us while we were travelling. The reason we initially went to Zambia was because of expert Africa's excellent advice and website.

We spent 8 days in the South Luangwa National Park, staying in the Nsefu, Tena Tena and Nkwali camps run by Robin Pope Safaris. Then we had 7 days in the Chiawa and Old Mondoro camps in the Lower Zambezi National Park. We had a truly wonderful holiday.

Expert Africa gave us excellent advice and made all the arrangements for our trip, and everything worked flawlessly.

Went to 3 camps run by Remote African Safaris to mainly walk with experienced guides in the bush. South Luangwa has many camps but none as friendly,flexible and with such experienced guides as it is owner-run by the Coppinger family who are always to hand. North Luangwa has only 2 camps and is wonderfully remote. We have been 7 times as we love it.

Expert Africa have the right experience to help us select the places and lodges which suit us.We have used them for 8 years and, led by Chris Macintyre who edits the Bradt Guide, we know we get advice from their staff who have been to the places they describe. we have always had a brilliant holiday and exactly as we expected and wanted. The pricing is transparent and the briefings and support cannot be faulted.

This was a long-awaited safari to Zambia to see Elephants, Lions and leopards in the wild, culminating in a visit to Zimbabwe and the Victoria Falls. It began with four days in Luangwa park at Luangwa Safari House where expert guides took us within patting distance of lions, elephants and giraffe. From there to Chongwe River Camp on the banks of the Zambezi, with river trips and sundowners and the chance to see ranging elephants at large in the expanse of the lower Zambezi basin. From there a private charter flight took us over Victoria Falls to Zimbabwe for a fabulous stay at the Victoria Falls Hotel. Every stage was flawless, the accommodation, food and activities beyond what I might have asked for, yet fully in keeping with my timing and other constraints. A holiday beyond what I might have imagined.

This was not my first safari, but it was my first trip with Expert Africa. Attention was paid to every detail, not just the wildlife I hoped to see but the sort of ambience in mind, the best logistics, right through to inoculations and dietary requirements. With all this they also paid careful heed to budget, carefully selecting accommodation, flights and timings to ensure I got the most from my break. Each of the venues proved well-chosen and it was clear from talking to the lodge owners that they know the Expert Africa team personally. This lent a very special feel to the holiday; more bespoke than travel agency. It was also clear that considerable thought had been given to the order in which I visited the various locations, given my requests. The itinerary led me on an emerging journey to see an Africa that I had never imagined - despite having undertaken a similar trip previously some years ago.

A walking safari in South and North Luangwa Zambia. This was ( and is) the best way to see the flora and fauna of the African bush .

We have been using Expert Africa for many years now and they have helped us arrange trips to Zimbabwe, Botswana South Africa and Namibia and this year Zambia. We have found their agents to be efficient courteous and knowledgeable and the holidays they arrange superb.

We recently took a safari through Zambia (Luangwa National Park & Lower Zambezi National Park) staying at 2 amazing houses which provide the prefect venues for your safari's (Luangwa House & Chongwe House). The animals, facilities, staff, food, locations and immensely knowledgeable guides made the stays outstanding and as there were a couple of very special Birthdays in our group, expectations were high but were totally exceeded. We rounded the trip off with a very relaxing weekend at The Victoria Falls Hotel which is THE perfect way to end a safari and should be experienced by everyone at least once in their lives.

Our trip was organised through Expert Africa who were outstanding in the planning and delivery of the trip and should be the first choice for all when booking. Every detail and all of our wishes were taken care of and as a result everything went smoothly and provided a very relaxing and memorable holiday. You can certainly tell they have the depth of knowledge and experience in Africa that is required to make this happen.

WE have travelled to Africa and Zambia a number of times, and we had exactly what we wanted

Expert Africa are our first choice of operator for that part of the world. They excel at being knowledgeable about their destinations, and in their ability and willingness to offer a personal and professional service. Highly recommended.

We thought we would like one more trip to Africa before we got too old- crossing destinations off "the bucket list" We were particularly keen to find resorts who were helping the local communities and setting examples of responsible tourism Expert Africa gently guided us from out initial rather unrealistic ideas towards a combination of 2 camps in Zambia and a third , more relaxing lodge on the shore of Lake Malawi the trip exceeded expectations, and, far from satisfying our wanderlust, we are now "hooked" on Afirc and will certainly be booking with Expert Africa again
