"Lake Manze and Zanzibar honeymoon"
We enjoyed our holiday and everything ran very smoothly. The connections were excellent.
We chose Expert Africa because Eleanor was so positive and helpful and gave us a really good idea of what our holiday would be like.
Suggestions for improvement:
Remember to mention whether departure taxes are included.
We weren't sure and so held on to USD$30 each in case but discoved these were already included.
Another idea would be to ask the local agents to be more proactive in selling excursions or trips. Not to force these on people, but if there had been a "price list" we would have been interested but instead we were put off by the driver trying to get us a good deal."

"Ruaha and Selous perfect combination"
If we were organising again I think we would do 3-4 days in Zanzibar first to wind down and get into holiday mode and then go to the Ruaha and Selous to get maximum benefit from the safari. We loved both parks and they provide an excellent combination with contrasting scenery, fantastic game viewing and game animals and different activities. The camps were quite exceptional and we would love to visit them and perhaps go all the way to Katavi.
The organisation and those all involved in it here and locally went entirely smoothly.
Suggestions for improvement:
I know this is probably not that helpful but this is the third trip you have organised for us and on each occasion your service has been exceptional, we would not dream of going to Africa with anyone else - many thanks." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a Tanzania safari

"Overall Review of Expert Africa Trip to Tanza"
We could not possibly have contemplated this without the expert advice, guidance and assistance from Expert Africa.
Suggestions for improvements:
Perhaps it is actually a good thing but If anything, your brochure probably undersold the camps and lodges that we visited. They were far better than we had expected them to be." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 4 on a Tanzania safari
