- Chris· August 10th, 2025Our experience with Lochinvar Safaris was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. Mark’s prompt and thorough communication made planning effortless and gave us complete confidence before we even arrived. On the ground, lead guide Fines, along with drivers Alec and Enoch, were the epitome of professionalism, courtesy, and consistency. True ambassadors of trust and care. Their seamless coordination made our trip entirely worry free, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in exhilarating cultural experiences and unforgettable wildlife encounters. This is a team that delivers not just a safari, but memories for a lifetime.Show more
- Alice· August 9th, 2025Our guide Fines was the best ever, took excellent care of us, and taught us so much! We liked the itinerary, learning much about history and culture of Zambia. The food and restaurant choices were very good. The Livingston hotel has some issues, but staff Andrew, Michael and Joshua did their best to help. There were some unexpected changes on the last day, where we ended up paying a little more, but overall ok.Show more
- Bhumika· June 26th, 2025We’re a family of five, and this trip to Zambia was truly one we’ll never forget. The first part of our journey took us to Mufulira, the town where my dad was born back in the 60s. Mark organised everything for us and made sure it all went smoothly. He actually grew up there himself, so it was a nostalgic experience for him too. What really stood out was how thoughtful he was, my mum’s a vegetarian, and he went out of his way to make sure her dietary needs were looked after. The second part of the trip was with Fines and our driver, Alick—and they were both just fantastic. Kind, funny, and full of knowledge about the places we visited. Thanks to them, we got to see and learn so much we wouldn’t have been able to on our own. There was so much history everywhere we went, and they brought it to life in such an engaging way. The safari at Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park was unforgettable, we had an incredibly close (and slightly thrilling!) encounter with an elephant. We also did a boat cruise through the park with the Radisson Blu, which was really relaxing and beautiful. Victoria Falls was just as amazing as we imagined, breathtaking in every sense. One of the other highlights was a day trip to Chobe National Park in Botswana, which also included a lovely boat ride. Another great adventure! On the last day, my dad realised he’d left his wallet in Livingstone. Without hesitation, Mark arranged for someone to bring it all the way to Lusaka. It was such a kind gesture and really summed up the care and attention we experienced throughout the trip. Honestly, this was one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. We were all really sad to say goodbye. If you’re thinking of exploring Zambia, I can’t recommend Lochinvar Safaris enough. Their team is kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do.Show more
