Reviews of safaris to Nyerere National Park
743 holiday reviews from our travellers of holidays which include Nyerere.

Although we were not entirely satisfied with Sand Rivers or Pole Pole, our dissatisfaction was mainly due to issues that could be resolved through somewhat more strict management of these properties.
Furthermore, what disappointed us about the Sand Rivers guiding may be why others think their guiding is superb. In other words, our dissatisfaction was due more to a mismatch of philosophy than any particular failing of the guide.

Claire was a pleasure to work with. She responded to my emails quickly and with all the information I needed.
Although we were not entirely satisfied with either Sand Rivers or Pole Pole, the reasons for our dissatisfaction have nothing to do with Expert Africa or Claire. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Expert Africa again." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 15 on a Tanzania safari

Everything went so smoothly I really can't add anything at all." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 7 on a Zanzibar holiday
"Overall a great holiday"
Help/advice given by Claire beforehand was also excellent and the detail on the website very accurate.
Fishermans Tours were always on time and the vehicles in good condition but we felt that they drove too fast most of the time.
We used Eco + Culture for 2 tours whilst in Zanzibar- both were very good. Guide was fantastic." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 6 on a Zanzibar holiday
"Our Best African Safari To Date"
From the initial enquiry to Claire, through to the very efficient transfers from airports to camps. It was very well organised. Thank you.
All 3 camps came up to our expectations because you had given us all the correct and relevant information.
The wildlife watching, which was principally our aim, was very very good in Selous. Obviously in Ruaha a lot of the large game had gone to find the earlier rain in the hills, but we saw so much more variety because of the rain.
So, a very big thank you to Expert Africa. We will hopefully be back for more safari experiences (when we have saved up again !!!)" Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"A really striking trip"
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
This is not a criticism - just a suggestion... There's a lot of literature sent out and it might be helpful if some of the salient points, such as baggage weight restrictions and the requirement for yellow fever innoculations, could be emphasised either by e-mail or over the phone once a booking is confirmed."
