In July and August this year, EXPLORE sent the Compton party to South Africa and Zambia. They would like to share their experience and photos with you…
“We liked all the locations and were treated well by everyone. I would like to single out the Bushcamp Company people at Mfuwe Lodge for the care and attention that they gave us. We were greeted at Mfuwe as if we were old friends. Shelly, Ian, Jamie, Peter, Savilla…..all gave us warm welcomes and made sure we had royal treatment.
There were special things to like about every site:
Jackalberry – The small size of the lodge and the fact that we saw cheetahs and rhinos in the semi-wild. We were extra lucky to be in on the activities immediately following the darting of a cheetah to remove her non-functioning radio collar!
Chindeni – Its remoteness and its beautiful setting. Sightings of leopards there were outstanding and our guide and tracker did an outstanding job of finding them.
Lion Camp – We saw lots of lions there and went to a fresh kill within seconds after it happened. We liked the architecture at Lion Camp with the raised walkways and wonderfully designed central area.
Royal Zambezi – Some of our best photos came from there including a courting pair of lions. We even saw an aardvark.
At every place the staff was friendly, highly competent and fun to be with. In summary, our expectations were more than met. We appreciate everything you did in planning and arranging the trip.”
