"south tanzania"
i do feel the information provided should be clear around the scarcity of the leopard/cheetah/wild dogs in the parks as had we not seen these on our previous african trips this would have been a major disappointment
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
ensure that the specific trip goal eg leopard opportunities is fully understood" Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari
"Tanzania southern circuit"
Accomodation and transfers could not be faulted. Staff throughout very very good, and invariably excellent. We felt each of the lodges went out of their to make a stay special.

It seems worth keepng an eye on the Authorities in Tanzania. Politically there are issues and undercurrents that, on this occasion, broke the surface.
Just as an aside: having gone to trouble of getting Visas in advance, immigration managed to to process none Visa holders more quickly that us: management of arrivals hall was rather desperate." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 9 on a Zanzibar holiday

It started not so well with kearsley (the agency in Dar) driving us to the wrong hotel and then failing to call back the hotel to confirm the time of our pick up the next day for the airport and we had a big disappointment and surprise when we found out we could not dive everyday of our stay in Matemwe because it was fully booked.
Apart from that, it was great, no worries and everything seems to be in palce and taken care of... which is great when you are on holiday!" Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 6 on a Tanzania safari

"A fantastic honeymoon we didn't want to end!"
On reflection, 2 nights in Stone Town was probably a little long for us as we enjoyed the other elements of the trip significantly more. All transfers worked smoothly, with clean, comfortable vehicles, and friendly drivers.
Thank you very much for organising such a wonderful honeymoon, we will definitely recommend you to any friends and family planning a trip to Africa.
