"Loved it"
I visited Zambia between 1 Aug 2015 and 12 Aug 2015
"I loved my trip, it was my first safari and Claire Scott did a wonderful job in arranging it all for me, and also answering all my questions prior to departure - thanks Claire.
I would definitely recommend Expert Africa and Robin Pope to anyone. All the people that worked at the camps were really really friendly and nice, those that were local to the area especially so. I also like the ethos on the drives of not crowding the animals with to many vehicles, as great as it is to see the animals, it is still their home. All the guides were extremely respectful of the animals and the environment and very knowledgeable.
I think this has probably been my best holiday ever so far, I was extremely lucky with all the friendly people I met either on the plane or at the camps and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, despite being somewhat scared at the start.
Thank you very much to all involved, public facing and behind the scenes." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 10 on a Zambia safari

"Zambia trip"
I visited Zambia between 25 Jul 2015 and 8 Aug 2015
"Our trip to Zambia was fantastic & delivered everything & more than we were expecting.
The key to this success, was the great advice & discussion I had with Megan during the booking process. I had a good idea what I was looking for & what I didn't want, she was very good at discussing the pros & cons of each camp & location. I never felt pressured to just make a booking.
In the end the holiday & the camps delivered exactly what were looking for. Many Thanks for a wonderful experience

"Flawless"
I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 4 Jul 2015 and 17 Jul 2015
"Claire was amazing to work with. She was very responsive to my emails despite being on a different continent & was also available for calls to answer my questions. I felt like she really listened to what we wanted & provided her honest opinion on some of my suggestions & also gave us the pros & cons of various itineraries or lodges & as a result, she put together the perfect trip for us.
Our trip was everything we expected...and more. This trip was for my husband's 40th birthday & she must have let all the lodges know because they all did something special for him. It really made the whole experience extra special for him.
Our entire trip was flawless - from the pickup at Livingstone airport to drop off at Likoma's tiny airport for our journey back to the States. Thank you so much, Claire & Expert Africa, for putting together a trip we will remember forever.

"Sambia and Malawi July 2015"
I visited Zambia and 1 other country between 4 Jul 2015 and 21 Jul 2015
"We very much appreciated being helped by travel agents who have intimate knowledge of the regions they are supporting. Thank you to Ellie for her always good advice on picking locations for the family and having a good sense on when, where and for how long to travel.
It is amazing how all the pieces nicely worked together without us having to inquire." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"My Jun 2015 trip"
I visited Zambia between 20 Jun 2015 and 4 Jul 2015
"Wonderfull 2nd Trip to Zambia! Great Combination within the Lower Zambezi NP (Chiawa and Old Mondoro) and the Kafue NP (Musakese Camp / Jeffery & McKeith Safaris). This trip was even far better than the South Luangwa NP last year.
The Camps and the Guiding was Top Notch! Very good Combo between the Lower Zambezi and the Kafue. The Experiance was very luxurius in the Lower Zambezi and very relaxed. The Kafue was great fund and a wonderful bush Camp with outstanding Guides and in an outstanding Area...The sightings in general were extremely good and lot of newer stuff....(Pangolin, Liechtensteins Hartebeast, Porcupine, Bushpigs, Serval, etc.) During the whole trip I encountered 8x Leopard Sightings which were unbelievable! Great!
And everything worked out as fine as usual! Thanks for your help and best Regards!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
