"I had difficulties at first, because inexplicably a member of the team forgot about my booking and failed to follow through the details.

However on enquiry this was swiftly put right and the trip proceeded exactly as set out, and without any glitches. This was very satisfying as on a safari trip the wheels can come off!

Have to say all my trips with Expert Africa, have proceeded as planned." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"The whole trip was absolutely excellent from start to finish and all the arrangements went like clockwork. Lion Camp/ Anabezi was a great combination, enabling us to experience the varying landscapes and wildlife of South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi in beautiful camps. We would rate both camps equally for comfort, luxury and overall wildlife experience.

We loved the informal, friendly atmosphere of Lion Camp. The wildlife was plentiful, the game drives were full on and we found we did not have time to freshen up before dinner (we could have asked to return a bit earlier, but did not want to miss anything!).

We found the atmosphere at Anabezi slightly more formal, but equally welcoming and friendly. The structure of the day there meant that we had more time to relax between game drives and overall the pace felt more leisurely.

A perfect trip, thank you!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"Maruska and Expert Africa certainly made my trip go seamlessly and I would have no hesitation about recommending them as they took into account everything that I asked for and the information provided was plentiful and clear.

Apart from my flight cancellation (nothing to do with Expert Africa) my entire trip went without a hitch and the the camps that I visited met (or exceeded) expectations, with a high standard of service and organisation.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Not really. The only point that I would raise is maybe the proximity of the rondavels in Nsefu, which is not ideal for people seeking privacy." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"From the initial conversation with Claire Scott as we framed the itinerary to the end of the trip, the service from Expert Africa was faultless.

The deep understanding of what to expect at each camp from having had first hand experience by visiting makes a lot of difference and is a differentiator from some other companies that offer an extremely wide range of trips with 'experts" covering many countries.

No, despite racking my brains before answering!" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 15 on a Zambia safari

"This was our first time using an agent as we typically like arranging our trips ourselves but we couldn't have managed without the Expert Africa team on this occasion.

We had a wonderful time in Zambia and Malawi and the whole trip fitted together seamlessly.

There was one minor mix up made by the staff in our hotel in Lilongwe which Lucy immediately sorted out with the hotel to get us a partial refund." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zambia safari

"A superb trip.

I cannot fault the service from Expert Africa (again!). Incredibly efficient and knowledgeable.

The locations you selected for us suited very well indeed and were universally fantastic.

A truly marvellous and memorable trip.

"A superb trip, staying in three locations, offering variety and the opportunity to do something a little different in remote areas of Zambia.
