Zambia: reviews from our travellers

"We greatly enjoyed our holidays...Mara Camp was superb and our stay at Royal Livingstone was also excellent. Maybe Rovos Rail was not the best choice for a trip with our sons." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 5 on a Kenya safari

"Everything worked like clockwork ( except the Lusaka hotel). I was amazed at the high standard of every aspect in the bush and the super staff eveywhere.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Perhaps a different hotel in Lusaka ? I met people who said the Sun Rock was very good. Personally I would prefer an overnight flight both ways." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zambia safari

"Excellent from initial contact to the fine tuning of the final details for our holiday.

Really appreciated the knowledgeable and honest advice.

As a result we had an amazing honeymoon, staying at lovely accommodation in stunning settings and experienced wonderful wildlife encounters." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Zambia safari

"It has been 15 years since Chris McIntyre planned our first trip to Zambia, and I'm so pleased to have finally returned. Claire gave me excellent advice in planning our trip, and Eleanor was very helpful when Claire was not available. I felt great confidence in your team of experts and appreciated that everything worked smoothly.

Thanks as well for the copy of Zambia, which I devoured.

"Exceptional. Truly a holiday of a lifetime made extra special, sharing the experiences as a family.

Ellie was fantastically helpful, even going to the trouble of rearranging our itinerary when she realised that our original booking at Shiwa would have been shared with hunters. Undoubtedly this would have marred our experience there and as it was, we were the only guests, so enjoyed the undivided attention of our delightful host and hostess.

Ellie's suggestions made for a very balanced trip and while the emphasis was on safari, both Shiwa and Livingstone provided contrast, interest and excitement!
