"My Aug 2022 trip"
I visited Tanzania and 2 other countries between 24 Aug 2022 and 12 Sep 2022
"Great trip.
But we should have just stayed in one Northern Serengeti camp as the two were so close. Ideally Sayara for 4-5 night, but with different staff. All guides were great." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 11 on a Tanzania safari

"My Aug 2022 trip"
I visited Tanzania between 20 Aug 2022 and 5 Sep 2022
"Fantastic.
The trip was put together over a series of calls and discussions, met all our criteria and was a great success.
We had one slight hitch with charges for a walking and night safari which Lyndsey sorted immediately, the wonders of e mail.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Maybe make it clear that you will be guided through the many flight changes by Coastal, it was a bit daunting but they made it easy" Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 15 on a Tanzania safari

"Spectacular river crossings and great game"
I visited Tanzania between 10 Aug 2022 and 23 Aug 2022
"This was a fabulous trip. We stayed in Arusha (pleasant overnight), and visited the Ngorongoro Crater (lots of game), Ruaha (fabulous lodge, sparser game, but still very enjoyable) and the Serengeti for the migration - awe-inspiring and spectacular river crossings.
The lodges were of very high standards, and the trip was comfortable, well-run and hugely enjoyable.
A special word must be reserved for the friendliness of the Tanzanian people - gentle, helpful, kind, considerate and well-mannered, extremely eager to do their best for you. It’s wonderful for veteran travellers like us to see how far the country has developed in so many ways since we were last here, and in particular to see how the Tanzanians themselves now occupy all the senior positions in camp management, guiding, and flying, doing so with their customary charm, efficiency and commitment to customer service."

"My Jul 2022 trip"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 22 Jul 2022 and 1 Aug 2022
"I think I made a mistake and gave my overall experience comment at the very beginning of the survey.
Bottom line: excellent guide, David, who made each game drive special.
Asilia lodges absolutely top notch, especially because of the staff and the overall atmosphere.
The trip was unforgettable, probably the best I have ever done." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari

"My Jul 2022 trip"
I visited Tanzania between 19 Jul 2022 and 9 Aug 2022
"The whole trip was memorable and truly amazing. The whole experience will stay in our memories forever.
The younger generation was overwhelmed and continue to talk about it.
We did especially appreciate the thoughtfulness and consideration given to the birthday girls and the surprise lunch in the bush is still being talked about.
Lyndsey could not have been more helpful from the first enquiry in March 2021 to our return and we will definitely recommend her and Expert Africa to any of our friends who might wish to make a similar safari.
Asilia's camps remain top of the pile and since we last used them 7 years ago have only got better. It is not possible to single out any one person as everyone who looked after us gave us wonderful service." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"We could not hope for a better honeymoon"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 21 Jun 2022 and 5 Jul 2022
"This was the most amazing trip of our entire life (so far at least). It made us feel special from start to finish.
We almost teared up as we left some of the places. We can't thank Olivia and Jessica enough for helping us create such unforgettable memories.
We could not hope for a better honeymoon.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We really liked the wildlife survey but it could have been more comprehensive." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"Our March 2022 expedition "
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 2 Mar 2022 and 31 Mar 2022
"Seven days in the Serengeti at the peak of the migration and then three days at the beach in Zanzibar -- can't top that.
Thanks, Maruska.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service: The Covid situation made international travel difficult, but the wonderful experiences at the places we visited were worth it." Read full review: 29 nights in Africa; 6 on a Tanzania safari

"My Feb 2022 trip"
I visited Tanzania between 2 Feb 2022 and 22 Feb 2022
"The trip was thoroughly enjoyable and fulfilled all my expectations.
I terms of covid I felt quite safe in Tanzania with only a few minor exceptions, all the accommodation was selected to give an open environment most of the time so generally masks were not necessary and on safari I saw very few people with masks on.
I think Tanzania is more advanced with their vaccinations than the available online information would imply." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 10 on a Tanzania safari
