My Jul 2016 trip
Zambia between 2 Jul 2016 and 16 Jul 2016
"All the transfers worked well, no problems. All the lodges made a great effort with the gluten-free food.
A safari holiday in Zambia is really first rate and I want to return as soon as possible."

Kafunta River Lodge
"Kafunta River Lodge review"
2 nights
Arrived
4 Jul 2016
"Great location. Very friendly staff who looked after us very well.
In terms of overall safari experience there were a few too many safari trucks on game drives but that is in part probably due to price - you pay more for exclusiveness. Great variety of game.
the leopard chalet was extra special as was the lunch up the tree platform."

KaingU Lodge
"Kaingu Lodge review"
3 nights
Arrived
9 Jul 2016
"The location and environment is stunning. The activities were great, especially those on the water.
I would probably advise people not to worry about a game drive and just enjoy the river. The guide JohnD was excellent. If I was advising people and they could afford it i would say only do the road transfer one way.
We were there when it was quite cloudy and the solar hot water was insufficient, they may need some sort of booster."

Old Mondoro Bushcamp
"Old Mondoro Bushcamp review"
4 nights
Arrived
12 Jul 2016
"This was just a fabulous experience. The chalets are great, the food really good, the activities great and varied and the guides really knowledgeable.
We had elephants wading across the lagoon in front of our chalet and then around our chalet - all the wildlife you could want without stepping outside your door.
The range of animals - leopards every drive, honey badgers, porcupines, civets and serval - was outstanding. I can't wait to return."
