Excellent safari to Kafue NP with Daniel from Zamsato
I booked a 4-night camping safari to Kafue NP through Zamsato starting in Livingstone and ending in Lusaka. Daniel, the owner of Zamsato tours, was also my driver and guide during the safari tour.
It was very easy to communicate with him through emails before the tour to discuss all details of the tour. During the tour he was an excellent guide who knew a lot about flora and fauna of the park so I was able to learn a lot about the nature in this part of the world. Additionaly, he is also a great cook - as I booked a camping tour we prepared our own meals in the camps, from scratch and with fresh ingredients. It was a great experience sleeping in a tent and listening to the voices of nocturnal Africa. I would definitely recommend Zamsato and I also plan to book them again when I am back to Zambia.
Family in the Bush
This was the highlight of our Zambia Safari The wildlife sightings in the park were spectacular. We came to Zambia to see Leapords and we were not disappointed. The accomadations were cozy and the food was phenomenal. The owners victoria and David were gracious and a pleasure to know. Dinners were spent with the hosts and we had a feeling of being with family. What they have given back to the local community is commendable. It is always uplifting to br with people of high character. The guides were knowledgable and a pleasure to be with.
The time at camp is unforgetable and I hope to return sooner than later. This was a memory I will cherish.

Experienced and Professional local tour operator in Zambia
Daniel put together an extremely well organized tour which exactly met our requirements. He has obviously built up a network of experienced, reliable and friendly contacts to support him. Highlight of our trip was canoeing down the lower Zambesi - getting up close to the crocs, hippos and elephants.

Two weeks in Zambia
Daniel can spot a brown-hooded kingfisher from a mile away and then describe its exact location so you can see it, too. In addition to his encyclopedic knowledge about Zambia’s biodiversity, he is well-versed in the politics surrounding and research and conservation efforts happening in the national parks. Whether he is explaining how wildebeests host fly larvae in their brains or buying you monkey oranges from a family on the side of the road or looking up the latest news on a court case regarding illegal deforestation in Kasanka National Park, Daniel’s love for wildlife and his adopted country comes through.
Logistics were excellent – Daniel replied to emails promptly before the trip, made great recommendations for a customized safari, kept me well fed per my vegetarian diet, and responded to some unexpected vehicle troubles like a pro.

EXCELENT!
You don't just hire a game tour, actually you meet a very good friend, always able to guide you and share his large knowledge and experience, making your trip more than delightfully.
He takes duly care of every small detail, planned and unplanned: hotels, meals, transfers, tours, souvenirs, etc. etc.
I wish having the opportunity to get back very soon with relatives and friends and meet him again
120% recommended
Thanks Dany to you all all your Teammates!

We booked a great safari with Daniel in the Lower Zambezi NP and in the South Luangwa NP - and that for 2020! Daniel put together a safari for us that exceeded our wildest dreams. And then Covid came and the shutdown in Zambia. Daniel also mastered this situation perfectly for us and we could make this awesome trip exactly one year later - as some of the few foreign tourists in Zambia. During our trip, Daniel was always available for us and organized also those things for us that are usually not required: transportation despite very late arrival in Zambia, Covid tests and much more. We can unreservedly recommend a trip with Zamsato. Daniel makes dreams come true !!

What an experience! Amazing
From the first contact with the Owner Daniel it was everything very smooth, even that I changed the dates maybe 5 times and I had speciall request that are not usual per such Safari Daniel made everything possible, we had great experience in Camp as in Lodge as well, he prepares every day and whole trip exactly as you want it. He is never in hurry, he prepares everything very gently. His knowledge of nature and history is really amazing. When I saw how many hours we spend in the car together I was thinking what would we chat about during transit, but his knowledge of the nature/history/politic made few hours drive like an hour..I appreciate all his effort very much, and definitely reccomend Daniel as your choice Number One for the Safari trip.

Excellent travel agency
Daniel is not only an operator but a friend.He always replys your request very quick and arranged everthing himself. He knows a lot about animals, especially birds.if you travel wih him, he will tell you a lot of stories of animals. During this 15-day trip, we drove from Livingstone Zambia to Nyika Nationl Park Malawi. The whole journey was more than 3,000 kilometers drive. It was a very hard job for Daniel, but he was happy to arrange all this for us. Thank you very much Daniel. Although I didn’t see the leopard this time in South Luangwa (because it was the rainy season), next time, when I come next time, I will still find Zamsato and plan a more interesting trip.
