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)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)Most memorable? Working with the children and seeing how eager they were to learn. The landscapes and wildlife were stunning. (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.
