"A wonderful safari and an excellent holiday"
Everything went like clockwork, it was very relaxing but also an intense safari experience.
Our final week on the Zanzibar beach at Pongwe Beach Hotel was the ultimate in exotic pampered chilling out - very informal and laid back with just the right mix of excellent service, great food, and wow location.

"My Sep 2016 trip"
Walking safaris and boat trips definitely added an extra dimension." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari
"Fantastic Safari experience"
We saw lots and lots and especially wildebeest which was the main reason for the trip. The accommodation was great (except Ngorongoro which was just not our style), and all the guides were excellent.
We could not have asked for more and were very happy." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 16 on a Tanzania safari
"Tanzania trip September 2016"
In addition the choice of camps suited us much better than, for example, the Serengeti. We wanted quiet and remote and that is exactly what we got, combined with plenty of wildlife action. A nice bonus is that both camps were better than we had expected, from facilities to food to service.
