The meandering Rufiji River lies at the heart of Nyerere National Park

It forms a complex network of channels, lakes and swamps.

It is a great place for game viewing...

...as well as admiring the beautiful scenery.

Wild dogs can be spotted...

...and also herds of elephant.

Nyerere National Park also has an extraordinary birdlife...

...with over 440 species.

...and elephants as they come down to the river.

Nyerere National Park is worth a visit.

"Another wonderful holiday"

I visited Tanzania between 19 Jan 2012 and 29 Jan 2012
"Once again we have had a great trip to Africa. We knew that Beho Beho and Oyster Bay would be incredible and they didn't disappoint. Sand Rivers was good and we enjoyed seeing a different part of the Selous.

Our only problem, which was quite beyond your control, were the biting insects that had appeared after the 2 days of rain in the Selous before we arrived!

I would like to thank Ellie for all her help - as usual there were so many e mails between us and she was just so efficient and patient in answering and then organising our trip.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

We have used Expert Africa for several years now and always find your staff extremely pleasant and helpful. We have never had any problems with arrangements - drivers always there to collect us etc.

We have told many people to contact you and just wish that other travel companies could be like you.

Comments in your brochure are accurate - I can really find no faults at all with Expert Africa!" Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"We found the Selous to be a very interesting area and the standard of guiding and service generally were excellent. However, our end of trip feeling was that we would not return.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

This was our fourth holiday with Expert Africa and we feel most relaxed about your excellent service. We will definitely be in touch with you again." Read full review: 7 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"Unforgetable introduction to safari holidays"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 14 Jan 2012 and 27 Jan 2012
"Maybe we were just very lucky and fortunate enough to have a guide to ourselves for most of the drives in Selous and Ruaha.

The animals were very co-operative often at very close quarters especially in presenting their young and often in rare situations e.g. a pride of lions with three very young cubs, a cheetah chasing impala and in turn being chased by baboons, a week old elephants being carried across a lake and giraffes fighting.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Although it turned out that we did have sufficient, we would have appreciated a little bit more guidance on how much money to take with us." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

I visited Tanzania between 12 Jan 2012 and 22 Jan 2012
"Great trip - good time to see birds in breeding plumage but not the best time for animals - we had 3/4 wet days in Ruaha. We had been warned about this by Expert Africa so was not a problem

All the pick ups and itinerary arrangement worked like clockwork - which is quite an achievement in Africa

"21 Days in Tanzania and Victoria Falls"

I visited Tanzania and 2 other countries between 7 Jan 2012 and 29 Jan 2012
"Overall good trip.

Expert Africa provided excellent seemless and timely pickup and drop-off services from the moment we landed in Africa. With this service, my daughter and I felt very safe; and it also made the trip that much more fun. Eleanor Dunkels did a great job from the time of preparation, advising us what to bring with us and where to go, catering to our requirements.

"Perfect trip"

I visited Tanzania between 6 Jan 2012 and 17 Jan 2012
"Cant fault any of it.

Only possible comment is .. dont expect large herds of anything and the animals are rather difficult to spot .... but we never saw another vehicle .. so that was great.
