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.

"My Oct 2013 trip"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 5 Oct 2013 and 18 Oct 2013
"This was a great trip. We enjoyed it all. Although there was some negative observations about Impala we nevertheless enjoyed it . I do not think we would again travel to east Africa as late in the year as on this occasion. It was extremely hot and certainly in the Selous the rains came early. Rains were also expected in the Ruaha the day we left, again early for that region. Weather predictions as unstable in this region now as they are in the rest of the world.

Our itinerary was perfect and everything went like clockwork.

I believe this is our third African trip with you. Your company is very reliable with knowledgeable advisors offering trips that are competitively priced. We would not hesitate to travel with you to Africa a fourth time." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"Tanzania 2013"

I visited Tanzania between 5 Oct 2013 and 20 Oct 2013
"We had a great time. Adding to the camp feedback - the trip through Dubai worked well for us/ I think it could be looked into as a possible route. Emirates were an excellent service.

The airport at Dar is a little confusing - it may be worth telling people they have a a 'pre-check'security that isn't clear if you can take your water through. Once through, there is nothing much until you get past emigration! Take a good book. After emigration most shops will take dollars.

Great trip - all worked as planned. Moments we will never forget. I think that's the point :)" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Tanzania safari

"My Sep 2013 trip to Selous /Ruaha"

I visited Tanzania between 24 Sep 2013 and 4 Oct 2013
"We flew via Nairobi where the in-transit facilities on the outward flight were very poor. However, on the return journey we were taken to much better facilities for the time spent in in-transit at the airport. We flew by Kenya Airways which were very good.

They were on-time and the facilities and service on the planes were good. However, the check-in desk at Dar-es-Salaam airport only opened two and a half hours before the flight so we had a couple of hours sitting in a not very nice area before the desks opened. However, after checking in and going through passport control you are then in a very modern area.

However, besides the downside of long-haul travel, our time within Tanzania was wonderful. All the arrangements went smoothly, and the camps and wildlife lived up to expectation. We are extremely happy with our choice of camps and all our experiences.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

"It was excellent - we have wonderful memories of a really fabulous part of Africa to make our anniversary a date to remember.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

You have a very good reputation in the camps as they like the fact that each person in the Expert Africa team is an expert on the country they deal with. We wouldn't book with any one else for an Africa trip." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari
