We had the best possible end to a month in Africa at Flatdogs camp. Having driven ourselves for the rest of the trip it was a fantastic treat to be taken out on the game drives - our driver River was excellent, especially his bird knowledge, and it was here that we saw the predators, especially the cats, far surpassing... more

We stayed at Flatdogs in April 2008 as part of our honeymoon. We stayed in two other camps in the area but Flatdogs was by far the rest. The first two nights we stayed in one of the chalets which was superb. Very cool, spacious and in a beautiful spot down by the river where you can hear the very... more

We spent a wonderful 8 days at Flatdogs. It was our first safari and we decided to go to S Luangwa as there appeared to be a good chance seeing game at close quarters. The reviews on a number of websites led us to Flatdogs and did we make the right choice. We decided to stay in one camp so... more

We had initially intended to stay at Mfuwe Lodge (where we had a great experience when working on the Copperbelt in the 70s) but it was soon evident that it has moved 'up market' and priced itself out of our comfort zone. We ended up at Flatdogs after reading reviews here (and elsewhere) indicating that it would be more our... more

I can't really rate our experience here highly enough. The thing about Flatdogs is that you just feel instantly at home and nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff. Jess, Ade, Paolo, Cathie and Jabes our guide, went out of their way to make our stay a truly memorable one. Although there is a big range of... more

6 of us spent 2 nights at Flatdogs at the end of our 3 weeks in Zambia and had an amazing time. The staff are very friendly and the location is perfect. Safari tents were comfortable and clean and the food was good. We were fortunate to have an excellent guide (his name is River and his night assistant was... more

We have been visiting African game parks for more than 30 years, but this was our first trip to Zambia. Our first contact with anyone from Flatdogs Camp came when Yotem picked us up at the Mfuwe airport. A nicer fellow one cannot imagine. In fact, this could be said for all the employees at Flatdogs. This is a well-run... more

The other reviews posted here hit the nail on the head so I won't repeat my enthusiasm for this lovely camp. Workers from other camps come here to socialize on their off time which is directly attributed to the fun spirit and hard work of its managers, Jess and Adrian. I'll try to provide some additional details not yet covered.... more

Back in August I took my nephew on a trip of a lifetime - his 13th birthday present was to go on Safari and Flatdogs had been recommended by my cousin and his wife who currently live/work in Mozambique, but have travelled around much of Africa. Jess and Adie who run the camp were fantastic and helped with any queries... more
