Travel reviews by The Meerkat Family - Hove
12 days in Southern Tanzania
On this trip, I visited Tanzania between 12-Jul-2008 and 25-Jul-2008 and I travelled with 4 other people.
Staying at three seperate and different sites was the perfect way to get a wide spectrum of experiences. An excellent balance of comfortable facilities and excellent food with a feeling of excitement and really being out in the African bush.
Exceeded all expectations - the staff at all the camps were fantastic, the variety ofgame and birds we saw amazing.And I left knowing this was the best holiday I could have had. Especially pleased as travelling with two children (9 and 11) and they were constantly thrilled and excited by each new experience and never once complained about sitting in cars, funny food or not seeing something -
Thoroughly recommended and thanks for the expert advice that enabled us to enjoy it so much.
Suggestions for improveent:
Not really - had to phone for clarification about what currency to take but otherwise was totally satisfied.
