"Genuinely the holiday of a lifetime"
I cannot wait to visit Africa again, and will certainly do so with Expert Africa.
You were super helpful in helping with planning and guidance and it all worked so well.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We only had one glitch, and it was very small. When we arrived back at Dar airport from Selous Impala, our driver was not there to meet us. It turned out that he was waiting at Terminal 2 and we were at Terminal 1. We managed to find out the phone number and borrow a phone and all was sorted out.
If the telephone number of the transfer company, Kearsley, had been on the form somewhere, this would have helped. But this is only the smallest quibble in what was a most wonderful holiday.
I'm running out of superlatives!
Thank you Eleanor and your team" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 12 on a Tanzania safari

"Fantstic trip that ran like clockwork"
Claire and Ellie workied hard to pull the trip together and patiently looked at various options before we finalised the arrangements. I had also challanged a number suggestions which were explained to me while the trip was being prepared and which. with hindsight, were the right ones to make.
Thank you - I'm sure we will come back to you for another trip at some point in the near future.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
It would be worth getting clarity on bank credit card charges to advise customers - we got inconsistent charges quoted - form no charge (Ras Katani) to 10% charge for credit cards at Impala camp. Fortunately we had bought enough cash not to have to pay but it could be expensive if you were not prepared and it's puzzleing that the the fees quoted were inconsistnet."

"Ruaha to Zanzibar via Selous"
Go to Ruaha - the game is a s good as Chobe in Botswana. Selous is a good alternative and has the advantage of water activities and walking safaris. Game is harder to find though.
Breezes is great if you have children, its facilities are good, it is safe and the perfect spot to unwind.
I would avoid the Zanzibar Coffee House except for cake and coffee. There are better alternatives - we were moved to Grand Palace Hotel which is brand new (and has a few teething problems) and the Swahili House looked good as well. We had an excellent Italian meal at the Spice House.

"Tanzania honeymoon"
We would definately use Expert Africa again." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 5 on a Tanzania safari
"Trip of a lifetime"
Your recommendation of the Selous was excellent as we saw all the animals we could wish for and enjoyed the extra activities of river/lake trips and fishing.
As a family group there was something for everyone.
