"Wonderful African safari"
I visited Tanzania between 21 Sep 2010 and 1 Oct 2010
"From the moment of contacting Expert Africa we felt in very good hands, Ellie was wonderful and sorted out the perfect safari holiday for us. Her recommendations turned out to be the perfect combination and we are still 'coming down' from the whole experience.
For us Africa is a magical place, and the whole tented safari experience exceeded our expectations totally. We will be back to talk to you again! Thank you.

"Summary of Trip to Tanzania"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 15 Sep 2010 and 26 Sep 2010
"Couldn't have asked for a better honeymoon.
Location, food and service was truely amazing (you definately get what you pay for) and the ease of transfers was great. Expert Africa were fantastic and spent a lot of time discussing what we were looking for which helped greatly in our decision on which country and locations to go to.
Claire also was not pushy when I advised her that I was going to book the flights myself and was also very comforting when I was worried about the BA strikes. Thank you so much. Only improvement could be the price

"A wonderful adventure"
I visited Tanzania between 28 Aug 2010 and 5 Sep 2010
"This was a wonderful experience.
We could only manage one week away and the balance of walking/camping to time in Sand River and Beho Beho was just right. Beho Beho sets the standard for safari camps.

I visited Tanzania between 10 Aug 2010 and 22 Aug 2010
"Excellent. Pick ups from/to flights on time and well organised
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Sort out the luggage allowance and make sure the information in the guidance matches the experience on the ground.
This feedback has taken over 45 minutes. We are not trained touch typists but even if we were we could not have done it in the 10-15 mins you suggested." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Tanzania safari

"Genuinely the holiday of a lifetime"
I visited Tanzania between 7 Aug 2010 and 20 Aug 2010
"I had such high hopes of this trip, I've spent all my life wanting to go on safari. In every measure it lived up to my hopes - and exceeded them.
I cannot wait to visit Africa again, and will certainly do so with Expert Africa.
You were super helpful in helping with planning and guidance and it all worked so well.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We only had one glitch, and it was very small. When we arrived back at Dar airport from Selous Impala, our driver was not there to meet us. It turned out that he was waiting at Terminal 2 and we were at Terminal 1. We managed to find out the phone number and borrow a phone and all was sorted out.
If the telephone number of the transfer company, Kearsley, had been on the form somewhere, this would have helped. But this is only the smallest quibble in what was a most wonderful holiday.
I'm running out of superlatives!
Thank you Eleanor and your team" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari
