Travel reviews by Ms C from Canada

"I only spent one night at the Taj Pamodzi hotel right after getting to Zambia. Its a good location for a one night stop in Lusaka."

"I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Tafika. The camp was recommended to me by Expert Africa as an alternative to the camp of my choosing and I am very happy I followed their recommendation.

I really enjoyed the diversity of activities available at Tafika: doing a safari on foot was really enjoyable and I loved the different perspective I was able to gain from being in foot. The game viewing was pretty great; loved seeing the lionesses start their hunt at night and watching the small leopard follow two giant hippos. The microlight flight is a must for anyone staying at Tafika. It was another great and different perspective of the bush. The guides were pretty great as well. It was fantastic safari experience."

"Shumba Camp is a beautiful camp. The tents are very nice and have a very homey feel. The staff was really great and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay.

The game viewing was a little more sparse than other camps I've visited, but we still managed some good sightings: fighting hippos, swimming lions, and a rather large group of roan antelopes.

I really enjoyed the hot air balloon ride as well, definitely an activity worth doing; it was one of my best sunrise views I've ever had."

"Toka Leya is a great camp from which to visit Vic Falls (which was why I went to this camp). I tremendously enjoyed the visit to the Falls.

Toka Leya was also very good at arranging different activities organized by the camp, as well as outside activities. I was very impressed by this. They have tremendous knowledge of different activities that tourists can do in Livingstone and around Vic Falls and were very good at organizing days to make sure that guests get the most of their time there. It was a very nice stay."

"I had a wonderful stay at Lebala.

The staff was great and very welcoming. I was very impressed by the efforts of the guides and trackers to find very good game. The whole camp was very comfortable. The game viewing was also quite good. I loved being able to see the wild dogs and their puppies at Lagoon Camp (sister camp). I also loved seeing quite a few sable antelopes. I had a really nice stay at Lebala and was very pleased with Kwando Safaris as an organization."

"I had an absolutely amazing stay at Little Vumbura.

The staff was amazing, the food was great and the tents were very comfortable. I also had some of the best game viewing I've ever had: three leopard sightings in three days, lions up a tree, leopard kill and feast, sable antelope and hyena puppies. It was my first time in a mokoro and I really enjoyed the experience. I had an absolutely amazing three day stay at Little Vumbura."

"I had a very nice stay at Kalahari Plains Camp.

I really enjoyed seeing my first wild cheetah and seeing some giant Kalahari lions. Even though the game was quite sparse since its the dry season, I was still able to see some Kalahari animals: bat-eared foxes, oryx and springbok which are not found in many other places in Botswana. I also really enjoyed the bushman walk. It was really very interesting to learn more about how the bushman survive in such an arid region."

"I really enjoyed my stay at Kulala Desert Lodge.

The location in particular was absolutely amazing. I also really appreciated that I was able to do everything I planned within the two days that I was there. In addition, everything pertaining to pre-departure and getting in and out of Sossusvlei went extremely well.

I was very happy with my little trip to Namibia."
