"Lower Zambezi trip October 2017"
"My Oct 2017 trip"
"Our September 2017 trip to Zambia"
Arriving at Lusaka airport at the same time as another flight led to a rather full immigration queue but seeing our name on a board waved at the entrance took away any concerns about finding our way around.
This was our first trip to Africa and our first safari and I am sure that it won't be our last indeed we are already planning a trip next year (in our heads at the moment) but will certainly be coming back to Expert Africa to make it real."

"Wonderful Zambian adventure "
Small peaceful remote camps, excellent staff and accommodation. Standard of guiding was exceptional. The wildlife viewing was amazing.
For those interested in photography the provision of dust covers, beanbags etc was helpful and the hides afforded great opportunities to get amazing shots." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari
"My Sep 2017 trip"
Our fears of the valley being overrun by vehicles were unfounded as the southern end of the Park was just beautiful and only saw Kainga and Mwamba vehicles. Plenty of game but then it was very hot and animals had to come to water. Wonderful photographic opportunities!
We would recommend this trip but perhaps go to the lodge on the Lower Zambezi at the end of the holiday and have a relaxing afternoon on the river and then collected for evening game drive!
All in all a memorable holiday." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari
"My Sep 2017 trip"
It is a shame it is classified as a malaria area because everywhere we went managers told us they did not have mosquitoes. The other wildlife is fantastic and plentiful at this time of year (late September - October).
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
I think your team do a great job at the moment and I certainly recommend Expert Africa wholeheartedly whenever friends are thinking about visiting the area.
As Arnie famously said, I'll be back!" Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 16 on a Zambia safari
"Lower Zambezi camps and its many activities"
We want to repeat the experience in Sept 2019 (God willing") + add on quite a few things---so probably a 19 or 20 day trip
We will call now to discuss this very soon
Millions of thanks to the entire team, both in the UK and also in Zambia" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari
"Our Zambian safari September 2017"
Not mentioned above, but the "meet and greet" at Lusaka on arrival is always welcome and reassuring" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Zambia safari
"My trip to Zambia"
The only things I would do differently next time would be to specify which guide (now that I know them) I wanted at Chongwe (Troy) and Shenton camps (Patrick), and I would not go to Tafika again." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 17 on a Zambia safari
