Markus Daniel Schreiner was amazing in providing our 3 member party a great experience.
Daniel (Zamsato) provided an excellent service. He helped us plan a great trip within our budget. We were all surprised on what we experienced at such a great price. The following is an example of how professional and dependable Daniel is. We were originally supposed to drive from Lusaka to Mfuwe. The vehicle that was supposed to pick us up and take us to Bridge Camp and then to Mfuwe had a mechanical problem. Daniel arranged lodging at Pioneer Camp and plane transportation to Mfuwe prior to our arrival. We were very impressed with his professionalism. When we arrived in Zambia we were greeted by Timothy from Pioneer Camp. When we arrived by plane to Mfuwe we were greeted by Herbert from Croc Valley camp. Our guide was Kalima who was amazing and had a great personality. There were three of us and we immediately bonded with Kalima. We made a few changes to our itinerary and Daniel was very flexible and accommodating. During our 5-day safari we traveled to the Nsefu Sector and Chichele area. We saw lions, wild dogs, leopards, hippos out of the water, giraffes, wildebeests (which are rare in this national park) and much more. The great thing about South Luanga is that it beautiful and once you get away from the camps by Mfuwe you don't see hardly anyone. We were the only vehicle in many of the areas we went. At the end of our safari, we stayed again at Pioneer Camp. Pioneer Camp was great. The place is clean, the staff is great, and the cook is amazing. Daniel thanks for a wonderful experience.

The hosts are very knowledgeable about the area and are well connected with other tour operators.
The lodge is basic but quiet and comfy and has all the necessities to use as a base. The hosts arranged everything for us and went out of their way to accommodate our wants. This was especially welcomed as we had not pre-arranged anything.
We did two half day local game drives, Vic Falls, river rafting, and 4 day safari in Kafue national park.
Our host, Daniel, was also our guide and driver on safari and was very knowledgeable and had very experienced eyes. We were given ample time to take pictures and enjoy the beautiful country of Zambia.
Much respect

Very professional, well prepared and always happy to answer questions and curiosities you might have
The trip was very well organized.
Daniel picked us up from the airport and he took care of us until the very end, our main activity was of course safari and that took most of the out time there.
During the safari tho the stops, the explanation of animals’ related stories were in point and based on our knowledge of the topic (some of the group had very basic knowledge like me but others had an advanced level of knowledge).
It was a great experience and Daniel over exceeded expectations which ks always amazing, true to say it was my first time in the real Africa but still super super appreciated!

Park chosen by tour operator in Southern Luangwa was excellent. Administration excellent.
Pick up and delivery to remote airports were excellent. Nsandile lodge was great. Guides were brilliant. We saw wild dogs the first day, close up and saw 5 leopards, including one eating an impala it had just caught. Brilliant.

Wonderful tour, excellent operator!
Daniel is very good at replying swiftly with a lot of helpful information. Once I told him my interests and availabilities he readily put together a schedule that perfectly reflected what I wanted to do. He was always available for additional help and gave quite a few very valuable tips.
Once I got to Zambia, he was also my guide and showed extensive knowledge of the country, its people and its flora and fauna. He would catch even the most hidden of animals and be able to tell you a lot about them. Additionally, he took great care of his guests regarding food and accommodation and noticeably put a great effort toward making sure everybody would leave happy. I would do a tour with him again without thinking twice and warmly recommend him!

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.
