"An excellent memoriable trip"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 4 Sep 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"From the planning stage to the real journey, everything went well. It was a real pleasure to plan the trip with Eleanor, she is professional in all aspects from giving advice to handling the bookings.
Gorilla trekking permit was expensive and originally, we thought of doing it for one day. Eleanor recommended us to do 2 treks and it was a very good advice as both experience were different. The local operators, camps and hôtels that was recommended are of very high standard.
We could not wish for more." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari

"My Tanzania trip, September 2015"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 31 Aug 2015 and 14 Sep 2015
"A trip of a lifetime. An altogether wonderful experience among the delightful people of Tanzania. I would recommend all the camps visited to see game of every description and be cosseted by the staff. Missed out on seeing a rhino so need to go back

"A fantastic holiday - many thanks"
I visited Tanzania between 17 Aug 2015 and 31 Aug 2015
"Many thanks for organising yet another great holiday for us. The camp recommendations were spot on.
In general we preferred the Asilia camps to those of Nomad because they had Tanzanian managers rather than expats - this gave a more comfortable atmosphere." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 13 on a Tanzania safari

"African Safari and Beach Trip 2015"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 15 Aug 2015 and 26 Aug 2015
"The trip was beyond memorable.
Every Lodge exceeded our expectations and I must commend all the staff at each House and Lodge for their professionalism and attention to detail.
We loved getting to know each and every person.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
I think that all the accommodations were down played a little when I booked the trip.
I wasn't expecting them to be so spacious." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"Our Perfect Honeymoon"
I visited Tanzania between 1 Jul 2015 and 16 Jul 2015
"With much assistance from Expert Africa we really were able to tailor make our honeymoon and it made the world of difference. It meant we could focus on the things we were most interested in, we could move on from one location to the next at our own pace and we could adjust the budget up or down accordingly by tweaking here and there.
Our whole trip was fantastic. It had a rocky start as our flight leaving the UK was actually cancelled, however we were able to ring Expert Africa in the middle of the night explain the problem and by the time we arrived in Tanzania a new schedule had been re-arrranged for us by James that minimised any loss of activities. Having this piece of mind was invaluable.
Thanks should also go to Liz (who often assisted us if James was out of the office) and to Megan as originally we were looking into going to Botswana." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 15 on a Tanzania safari

"Many highlights - and a couple of lows"
I visited Tanzania and 2 other countries between 30 Jun 2015 and 11 Jul 2015
"As a "once in a lifetime", the gorilla treks were incredible even if they were hard work. One of the things I really liked about Rwanda was driving in the countryside, seeing how Rwandans live. Normally on a safari, you fly into your destination airport and then "hop" to your National Park so don't get the opportunity to see the real country. That difference made this trip really interesting.
The Serengeti was a real pleasant surprise. Beautiful countryside and plenty of great game. After the lack of elephants in the Serengeti, it was a pleasure to see so many in Tarangire, but due to the repetitive nature of the game drives and tsetse flies, I can't imaging wanting to return.
All in all a memorable trip." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 6 on a Tanzania safari
