Excellent. As a family experience it could not be beaten. The guides and staff were excellent and made our holiday extremely informative and fun.

A fantastic taster of different landscapes and activities - excellent chances of seeing a range of wildlife. Well organised, fab pre-trip info and assistance despite a last minute booking, and really friendly and professional guides. (more)Brilliant! Camping in the Okavango Delta and the helicopter rider over the Victoria Falls were most memorable.
(more)All days and trip were memorable, but above all watching elephants crossing the river 30 metres away from us having lunch in Old Mondoro was the most. We are definitely satisfied. (more)
I think that The Book Bus project is a brilliant, useful and original idea. Kids and teachers were really happy to see us and to receive the books. Delivering school books in a place where they are scarce and expensive make a great difference for the students. (more)Working with the young orphaned animals, helping to provide their day-to-day care, was a truly unforgettable experience. Seeing wild Lions, Leopards, Elephants (and many more) up close on safari was fantastic, surpassing all my expectations. (more)
We had a wonderful time at Mfuwe Lodge in South Luangwa but the highlight of our week was going back to Chingola on the Copperbelt where we had taught for 3 years in the early 70's. (more)It was all pretty memorable - for positive reasons! Well organised, excellent guide - and the group of us gelled well. (more)The most exciting was the gorge swing & white river rafting in Victoria Falls as well as the night game drives following lions stalking prey in the Okavango. (more)
The most exciting part was eeing the big 5 in Ngangongoro; watching a leopard hunt in South Luangwa..A great way of seeing a lot of different places and trying out a lot of things in a relatively short period.

Most memorable? Working with the children and seeing how eager they were to learn. The landscapes and wildlife were stunning. (more)The Chobe NP river cruise and the adrenaline activities in Vic Falls were the most memorable. (more)
Returned tired (in the last days I did abseil, rafting, micro light, travelled for 36 hours,..) but really enjoyed it! The most memorable parts of the holiday; saw a lion on a tree, the lake with hippos in new year, the new friends. (more)We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
Its 5.45am in South Luangwa National Park. In the copper-grey half dawn we gather around a still smouldering camp fire and prepare for the ultimate bush experience – a walking safari in which we can expect to track and see South Luangwa’s heavy brigade of elephant, buffalo, hippo and possibly even lion. Without a qualified guide to escort us we’d not be troubling the caterers for lunch. Ten years ago 80% of safari guides in the valley were white. Now 80% are Zambian and Daudi Njobvu explains what to do if we come across a four legged juggernaut having a bad day. Read more about Zambia safaris in this Zambia article.
