"A wonderful holiday well organised"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 7 Aug 2012 and 22 Aug 2012
"This is the fourth time we have booked an African holiday with you (the first back in 1997 when it was simply Sunvil) and every time you have come up trumps.

You really know what you're talking about and I have the greatest faith in your judgement on camp choice and in your operations. Uganda next I think!" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"Trip to Tanzania Aug 12"

I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 2 Aug 2012 and 17 Aug 2012
"We absolutely loved this holiday. It was well organised by Expert Africa and all transfers were on time.
We kept telling each other how different this was and it certainly felt different from holidays we have been on before.

Loved the safari and Zanzibar was beautiful.

Feedback response:

None at all. We were delighted with the trip and the service we received from Expert Africa.

Thank you very much." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 6 on a Zanzibar holiday

"My Jul 2012 trip"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 28 Jul 2012 and 15 Aug 2012
"A brilliant trip with a few minor issues in the scheme of things. Very glad we chose Tanzania over Kenya as we got a crowd-free experience and really got “in amongst it”.

The Serengeti in particular is a stunning place and the large wildebeest crossing we witnessed was an incredibly dramatic and moving experience. Overall, we feel very privileged to have had the opportunity to have had this experience.

Organisation / communication from E-A was excellent throughout." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari

"My Jul 2012 trip"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 24 Jul 2012 and 8 Aug 2012
"A great safari/beach holiday. Excellent organisation and advice throughout from Expert Africa. We will certainly book with Expert on our next Africa trip.

PS - our driver Stanford at Ngorongora could not have been more helpful and knowledgeable - he gave us a real insight into the local culture and traditions and coped admirably with three very long days.

The transfers in Zanzibar were the opposite. The driver meeting us in Stonetown barely said hello and never said a word during the 80 minute drive to Baraza. The return trip back to Stonetown was not much better (although we were picked up at 4am!). We were dropped off at Stonetown airport with no offer of assistance to discover we had to wait over an hour before the Coastal desk opened. It would have helped if the driver had shown us where to wait and warned us that we were early - Stonetown airport is not exactly Heathrow T5!"

"AWESOME TRIP"

I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 18 Jul 2012 and 5 Aug 2012
"Overall...perfect trip.

For the most part, everything ran smoothly. Transfers were on time, reservations were all correct. Only hiccup was at Kati Kati, where we were directed to three different camps before finding the correct one. Other than that the trip was truly amazing. Each place knew we were on our honeymoon and did special little things for us.

Nomad Tanzania, and especially our guide, Cornelius, were amazing. Made our trip so much better than we could have expected. Will be recommending an African trip, Maruska, Nomad, and Expert Africa to all our our friends and families.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

"Our trip was everything we wanted and more!"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 17 Jul 2012 and 29 Jul 2012
"The trip was really well paced with enough time in each place to feel like you had enjoyed everything on offer. Also a great mix of relaxation focussed places and camps who excelled at giving a really excellent safarii experience, plus enough time at the end for some culture and history.

I think we both came away feeling we wouldn't have wanted anything else in our honeymoon and wouldn't have changed a thing." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"An excellent african experience"

I visited Tanzania and 4 other countries between 16 Jul 2012 and 10 Aug 2012
"Overall, I am quite satisfied with my trip. I found that all details were perfectly organized. We had no problems at all with reservations of airlines and hotels. All previous information before the trip was very helpful, as well as the books that we received." Read full review: 25 nights in Africa; 6 on a Tanzania safari

"My Jul 2012 trip"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 12 Jul 2012 and 27 Jul 2012
"Brilliant experience - need to invent some new adjectives
Holiday of a lifetime

Very well organised, with camp sites and hotels taking real care to ensure you were getting the most out of the experience
The guides in Kwihala were world class going way beyond the call of duty - not that they saw it as a duty
It shows how important it is to do your research because the camps were very different and complimentary." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari
