"We had a wonderful time with spectacular scenery, fantastic wildlife sightings and great places to stay.

Our guide Baraza, was brilliant, extremely knowledgeable, professional and hard-working throughout our 10 days on safari." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Tanzania safari

"This trip was wonderful. It came about because our eldest son was working in Dar Es Salaam. But we had already used Expert Africa in the past to take our three sons to Namibia. That had been the best family holiday for us. We felt we must use Expert Africa again. I can only say that I am indebted to the knowledge of Lyndsey Marris, and the fact that Expert Africa listens, wants to know what we are looking for, what kind of budget do we have, and then makes carefully thought out suggestions. Lyndsey was so good. Absolutely excellent.

The trip was in every way memorable. Each place we stayed at was great. Lyndsey had provided us with a spot on itinerary. I feel with Expert Africa we are privileged to have people who care about Africa, and who really know it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the company. I wish we could return to Africa in the future, but not sure when!

As someone who has lived in Africa and whose work a long time ago(!) was dealing with books for Africa, I feel passionately about it, and two of our three sons have lived there. Chris's books are the best, without a shadow of a doubt. The Zanzibar book is full of rich detail and I left it with Jasper to keep as he is still out in Dar. It is a superb book.

Having time with Jasper in the Selous and on Zanzibar was incredibly special. We will not forget it. Jasper was blown away by the Selous in particular. Thank you, Expert Africa. Our youngest son lived in Botswana; one day I hope to get there, but for now, from the bottom of our hearts, thank-you." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zanzibar holiday

"Everything went well from start to finish.

A very good holiday with a good balance between the three locations.

Even though we already had visas for Tanzania we had to stand and wait at immigration while a staff member collected a whole pile of passports and visas and then worked through them interminably slowly!

On arrival in Zanzibar we expected to show our passports and yellow fever vaccination certificates! In the event we just filled in blue cards, gave them to the member of staff, plucked our bags off the carousel and walked out to our transport. (This was Fisherman Tours-their vehicles are very comfortable and they were always punctual)

Having read dreadful accounts of Zanzibar airport (standing in long queues in the heat etc) we were pleasantly surprised. Yes, it is small and cramped but there were no long waits and we left on time." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"It was a lovely trip - the highlight was Ikuka which is a simply wonderful place which we cannot recommend enough - Zanzibar was lovely and Breezes was a very good hotel even if the kite surfing was a little disappointing.

The arrangements by Claire at Expert Africa were excellently done and the itinerary was great ( we would never have know of Ruaha without that knowledge). My sister and brother in law have already booked a Namibia trip with you based on our recommendation." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 6 on a Zanzibar holiday

"My overall experience was excellent.

The only thing I wished for was that we would have had a guide and a driver in the safari truck in Kigelia Camp. But Elli did his best to fill in what he could and we still had a good experience.

I have dreamed of coming to see the animals all my life and I wasn't disappointed in any way." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"My trip was everything I hoped it would be, I felt well prepared by Expert Africa, ( thank you), there were no unexpected surprises or costs. Fortunately, all members of the group were healthy and great to be with.

Tanzanian people are lovely and very desirous of Tanzania being a tourism destination. Very impressed with the staff, in particular the guides in both camps ( very knowledgeable and educational). All support staff were helpful and delightful." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"Perfect.

Everything worked perfectly - the hotel in Dar es Salaam, the connections to the interior and back.

The parks were excellent, the lodges were wonderful, the people were a real joy." Read full review: 11 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"I went to three bases in 13 days and it felt like I’d been away a month
It was brilliant from start to finish
Expert Africa organised everything and it worked like clockwork

It was early season just after the rains and lodges were quiet
The wildlife sightings were great as was the scuba diving in the Indian Ocean" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari

"Overall it was a great trip and we both thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on Safari. I forgot to mention that the old vehicles used at Beho Beho need replacing as the seats are very uncomfortable and bad for backs and the winches need dealing with to avoid potentially dangerous situations.

We are unlikely to return to Zanzibar and certainly not to Matemwe Lodge. If we had known how remote it was and how horrid the surroundings were we would not have gone there." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 10 on a Tanzania safari
