"Much better than expected."
I visited Zambia between 25 May 2019 and 5 Jun 2019
"Planning stages very comprehensive. Excellent advice given. Every stage of itinerary was seamless whether organised by Tours Africa or the camps. I felt I'd just delivered myself into someone else's care and needn't worry about another thing. First time I lifted my suitcase was back at Heathrow.
I was so pleased the decisions I had made (with advice) about he combination of accommodations had fitted the bill completely. Although not deemed to be the best time to visit, I thought I'd had the best of all world so very lucky.
My thanks to everyone" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"Zambia and Zimbabwe safari"
I visited Zimbabwe and 1 other country between 7 Jan 2019 and 23 Jan 2019
"I try not to anticipate nor expect too much so I won't be disappointed - this trip far exceeded anything I could have imagined, I enjoyed it all so much and it all ran smoothly except the weather the first day but then I would not have experienced Latitude 15.
Thank you for organising such a wonderful itinerary, Freddie, did a great job." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zimbabwe safari

"Fantastic Trip to a Fantastic Place"
I visited Zambia between 21 Dec 2018 and 1 Jan 2019
"We have traveled extensively throughout Africa on own and with local guides. Some of our trips were arranged without help and were fine, but Expert Africa definitely added value to this trip by first asking about our likes and preferences and then matching us with great safari camps.
Since I had never been to Zambia, the local knowledge that Expert Africa supplied made the difference between a good trip and a great trip. The pre-trip documentation was excellent and the overall trip went like clockwork.
I plan to use Expert Africa for future trips and we already look forward to our next trip to Africa." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari
