Customer Comments: Jill & Stephen in Zambia

"Just to say we had the most wonderful time in Zambia and thanks for advice , organising etc etc Everything was perfect , The SLNP (South Luangwa National Park) really is beautiful , now appreciate why David Shepherd loves it so much.

All the guides were great , some been there years and worked for Norman Carr who died in 1997. A few remember Chris (Breen) and wish to be remembered , Levi , Lawrence to name but a few. The camps were great , fav was Mchenja , service excellent.
Saw some magical sights , one day to remember was at 9 am I spotted a lion with a snare round his neck , asked if I could go with the vet from the AWDC to watch , lasted until 7 pm !!! (You can see the images below).

I was told everything about the whole thing as only his 2nd lion , as now moving into Lions following 10 years of monitoring the wild dogs. So the male lion now with a radio collar , a fascinating time and saved a lion which if had not been sighted may have died with that awful snare.
Already planning next holiday !!!"
