"Amazing Honeymoon"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 23 Jan 2012 and 1 Feb 2012
"We had a fantastic honeymoon and being our first time in africa and on safari we were totally amazed and are completely hooked. There is nothing that we can fault for the whole experience. We are looking forward to returning to africa and definately to the Unbuntu camp.

Thank you Claire and to all at Expert africa for making our honeymoon so unforgettable.

"Brilliant holiday on safari and in Zanzibar"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 22 Jan 2012 and 4 Feb 2012
"Our overall experience was excellent.

The whole holiday was quite fiddly to plan and Liz did a very good job at interpreting our needs and putting it all together. THe safari part of the holiday in the Selous is to be recommended as we barely saw another truck but saw plenty of wildlife. Then Zanzibar was a lovely relaxing contrast."

"Unforgetable introduction to safari holidays"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 14 Jan 2012 and 27 Jan 2012
"Maybe we were just very lucky and fortunate enough to have a guide to ourselves for most of the drives in Selous and Ruaha.

The animals were very co-operative often at very close quarters especially in presenting their young and often in rare situations e.g. a pride of lions with three very young cubs, a cheetah chasing impala and in turn being chased by baboons, a week old elephants being carried across a lake and giraffes fighting.

Although it turned out that we did have sufficient, we would have appreciated a little bit more guidance on how much money to take with us." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari

"21 Days in Tanzania and Victoria Falls"

I visited Tanzania and 2 other countries between 7 Jan 2012 and 29 Jan 2012
"Overall good trip.

Expert Africa provided excellent seemless and timely pickup and drop-off services from the moment we landed in Africa. With this service, my daughter and I felt very safe; and it also made the trip that much more fun. Eleanor Dunkels did a great job from the time of preparation, advising us what to bring with us and where to go, catering to our requirements.

I visited Rwanda and 3 other countries between 23 Dec 2011 and 8 Jan 2012
"Additional Feedback - Patrick our guide was wonderful sometimes his timekeeping was slightly off but he excelled in everything else, the roads through Rwanda were sometimes very poor especially from Nyungwe to Lake Kivu however it was so scenic. he was so knowledgeable and catered to our whims especially with the gorillas,

We have already recommended Expert Africa to so many people after this trip for both the advisory service before and the quality of the holiday. We had the most wonderful holiday surpassing all our expectations. Thank you so much for arranging it.

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 26 Nov 2011 and 13 Dec 2011
"On a whole, the trip was an excellent experience and we enjoyed Tanzania . Hopefully we will return one day!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

It is really difficult to come up with anything substantial.
Information on the camps is comprehensive but maybe a little more about the types of animals which can be encountered and the environment and terrain as well as camp facilities,but this is a small point." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 10 on a Tanzania safari

"Summary comments"

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 1 Nov 2011 and 13 Nov 2011
"It was our first safari and was an amazing experience. We particulary enjoyed the wildlife but also the accommodation and the food as well as the people we met. It was also great to be able to combine a safari with being by the sea and visiting Zanzibar.

Many thanks for a great trip!

I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 29 Oct 2011 and 11 Nov 2011
"Despite some of the slightly negative criticisms on the earlier pages we had an excellent holiday. All connections etc worked well, we saw loads of game and birds - which was why we went.

I believe we picked the right game parks - plenty of game but fewer people, which, again, was what we wanted.

Thanks to Expert Africa for helping to make it happen!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Can't think of anything. We were pleased with the service and information provided.

I've mentioned it before, and I wouldn't want to give the impression that these detracted signicantly from our enjoyment but tetses in Mdonya and the non-availability of walking safaris in Mdonya were slight "hiccups".

Thanks to Liz for all your help." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari
