Zambia is well known for excellent guiding and top-class walking safaris.

...while some bushcamps in the South Luangwa exclusively offer walking safaris.

There's always plenty of time in between activities to relax with a drink...

...and watch the local wildlife!

From the smaller animals...

...to the biggest - there's a huge amount of game to be viewed in the different parks.

...you can find more luxurious lodges here as well...

...and every camp goes the extra mile to provide special touches to your safari.

"A Great 3 weeks all round Namibia"

I visited Namibia and 1 other country between 24 Mar 2013 and 14 Apr 2013
"Apart from Budgets 4*4 which was rubbish (I have detailed it separately) it was a smooth, easy and enjoyable trip. We drove ourselves from Windhoek to Fish River, then back up through all the places one needs to see to Etosha, then along the Caprivi Strip, dropping car off at Kasene in Botswana, crossing the border by boat into Zambia and flying back from Zambia

My rating of "fairly satisfactory" reflects our problems with Budget - but Expert Africa did recommend Budet, rather than me asking for it. The rest of the trip wa better than "very satisfactory" and I was impressed by Expert Africa's knowledge and help, nudging me to avoid driving to far if we were likely to have to drive after dark, and offering help when hotels were wanted were book (remember you are dealing with hotels of 10 to 20 rooms on most of our trip)

In short I can recommend this sort of trip to anyone, it is doable, safe, instructive and enjoyable." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 18 on a Namibia trip

"Zambia Green Season March 2013"

I visited Zambia between 22 Mar 2013 and 30 Mar 2013
"The trip as a whole was very enjoyable. RPS staff and camp were both great.

Game sightings were more patchy than I had expected and OK rather than great over the six days I was there." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zambia safari

"A memorable safari"

I visited Zambia between 17 Mar 2013 and 30 Mar 2013
"I had been to Luangwa before, so knew roughly what to expect, and was not disappointed generally. There was not a great quantity of game around (or at least visible), which is perhaps to be expected at this time of year, but everyone tried very hard to ensure a good safari, and the river boat trips provided a very novel experience.

I would have no hesitation in recommending the area, and both RPS and NCS, to anyone contemplating a "real" Africa safari.

I think you do a pretty good job as it is, no changes necessary." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT"

I visited Zambia between 25 Feb 2013 and 9 Mar 2013
"Ellie did an excellent job organising the whole trip for the four of us. When Chinzombo was unavailable, she organised a very good deal with Norman Carr Safaris which was very much appreciated.

I would highly recommend Expert Africa to anyone who is thinking of going to Southern Africa and I am very pleased to find out that Expert Africa are now going into Kenya, which two of us are hoping to visit shortly.

None at all. Everything was incredibly well organised. Can't fault anything." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 12 on a Zambia safari

"A wonderful short holiday"

I visited Zambia between 4 Feb 2013 and 8 Feb 2013
"We enjoyed all of it! The only complaint we have is that there were too long waiting times at the airports! This can be avoided.

A minor thing is also that on departure to Mfuwe staff at the airport thought we had arrived on the BA flight the same morning, so the lesson is improve communication!" Read full review: 4 nights in Africa; 4 on a Zambia safari

"An absolutely wonderful holiday."

I visited Rwanda and 3 other countries between 30 Dec 2012 and 23 Jan 2013
"This was our first trip to Africa and, thanks to Saskia Adye's excellent help and advice, it was a thoroughly memorable and enjoyable month-long holiday with fantastic game sightings as well as lots of cultural interactions.

We were extremely happy with all of our accommodation and transfers. The only disappointment was Rwandair Express which is the most unreliable airline that we've ever flown with, but Saskia did warn me of that in advance so I should have taken her advice to fly SAA instead!

Would highly recommend Expert Africa - and Saskia Adye in particular - to anyone planning a trip to this fascinating continent.

"This, our eleventh, trip with Expert Africa was arranged at very short notice. As always EA in general and, in thjis instance, Claire Scott in particular, pulled out all the stops to find an itinerary which worked for us and we were delighted with the results.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

We are very impressed by the outcome of the upgrading of the website. And we welcome the addition to the EA portfolio of Kenya, which we are currently actively investigating with an eye to our twelfth EA-arranged trip." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zimbabwe safari
