Tanzania: reviews from our travellers

"Expert Africa was a great travel agency!

Maruska was a pleasure to work with and had great recommendations to create a customized itinerary. She was very knowledgeable about each camp, park, and area we would be visiting. Our trip would not have been as enjoyable without her recommendations.

The website was very easy to use and we enjoyed the animal sightings tracker to help us determine which camps and areas had the best wildlife.

Thanks Maruska and Expert Africa!" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"This was a return trip, and a fairly similar itinerary to 5 years ago.

Aided by Expert Africa again, we stuck to what we knew had worked. All the camps continued to be oustanding and the wildlife experience was once again wonderful yet completely different than last time.

We fell in love with Tanzania the first time, and we love it even more now.

Simply magical.

Absolutely not, its been amazing from the outset, and even through the Covid nightmare you managed to keep us up beat and informed.

The only sadness this trip was the relocation of Olakira away from the river which was enforced by local authorities apparently. A great shame because the game experience and game drives were decidely poorer for the extra driving and diversions away from some riverside areas that this relocation requires. Can't be helped and of course if we'd not been there in 2017, we'd have no comparison.

We were only disappointed by the quality of the wine offered with meals. It really was at best average.. We had been spoiled by having Stellenbosch wines in 2017! And we do appreciate that economies may be necessary after the Covid pandemic." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 11 on a Tanzania safari

"A fantastic and unforgettable trip - Whilst two years in the making (COVID) was well worth the wait.

Jessica has been an absolute diamond in helping get this trip sorted. We moved things around more than once and Jessica was brilliant in sorting out our needs.

Thank you Jessica :).

Thanks so much for helping us get this organised. This was an expensive trip (for us) so are really pleased it all worked perfectly.

We had such a fantastic time." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 17 on a Tanzania safari

We were only disappointed in the level of amenities at Serian.

Given the terrific high standards the rest of the trip, and the trip pricing, we had assumed all camps would be of equal value.
Quite disappointed just about this stay." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 5 on a Rwanda safari

"All of us greatly enjoyed our trip.

Ruaha is a wonderfully scenic park and its location at the northern limit of some species and the southern limit of others means that it houses a unique variety of animals.

We had some excellent sightings including roan antelope, numerous lions, including a mating pair right by the jeep, and leopard four times.

We stayed at Mwagusi first and then Ikuka and both camps were excellent." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"Delayed two years but worth the wait, thanks to Jessica and Expert Africa for managing the covid chaos!

Our fourth visit to Tanzania as good as ever with two unique wilderness destinations and loved being truly off grid.

Qatar flights via Doha were the best route we’ve used." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 10 on a Tanzania safari

"It was the best. All the different things we saw and did, my absolute favourite type of holiday.

Just wish we could do it every year!

"This safari was planned and booked in, I think, 2019. Like the rest of the world, we had to postpone it twice due to Covid. It was worth the wait. I especially loved Ruaha and Nyerere because they don't seem to attract as many tourists as the migration area. But, having said that, seeing the migration is mind blowing.

On our last day, the camp manager was telling us all about Asilia and their environmental policies. I am really impressed with this company and would not hesitate to recommend them and will definitely stay at their properties in the future. I hope they will consider expanding into Southern Africa...

I love Expert Africa! I will continue to use you whenever I travel to Africa.

I have had nothing but positive experiences with your company." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Tanzania safari
