Zambia between 8 Sep 2008 and 25 Sep 2008
"This trip to Zambia was fantastic. My comments on the various lodges are all quite similar but that is simply because I had a great time at every lodge that I stayed at. The level of professionalism was very impressive, meals were always great, and I was impressed by every single guide that I met. I think that the guides in Zambia, as a whole, are the best in Africa. They always seemed to strike the perfect balance between pleasing the guests and not intruding on the wildlife. They always made sure not to upset or harass the wildlife.
Expert Africa was fantastic in helping put my itinerary together. Extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and very responsive to any questions that I had. This is the second trip I have taken with Expert Africa, and I would absolutely not hesitate to recommend them to anyone interested in visiting Africa. Thanks for everything!
Suggestions for improvement:
I always like to make constructive suggestions, but as an indication of how thoroughly satisfied I am with my trip, I have no suggestions on how to improve your trips or your service."

"Tafika has everything. All of the staff at this lodge were great - helpful and friendly at all times. Very good leopard sightings, and excellent lion and serval sightings, as well as all other expected wildlife. Great birdlife as well. Guides were very knowledgeable and respectful for the welfare of the wildlife. An early morning ride in the microlight was a very unique treat and a highlight as well.
Meals were excellent.

I did not have any luck here with seeing cats, but the canoe trips were great and a real highlight here. Excellent bird life and lots of wildlife along the river. Guides were very knowledgeable and respectful for the welfare of the wildlife.
Meals were excellent."
