I could not fault anything. The wrong place in Stone Town was my fault for turning down the Serena Inn." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zanzibar holiday
"southern safari"
There were no night drives in the Selous, contrary to what I was told.
There is apparently now an early morning flight to Dar from Selous which connects to the BA flight, obviating the need for an overnight stay in Sar.

"First Safari"
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We got such good personal advice from Ellie that we hardly looked at the promotional literature. The information pack was excellent and dealt with everything we needed to know.
just one point about Zanzibar. We were recommended to take US$. in fact this was unnecessary. The shops and hotel were all just as happy with the local currency and applying the exchange rates they were quoting, paying in US$ was an expensive option. The museums were all happy with local currency too and there was no saving involved in paying in US$. Please review this recommendation." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 9 on a Tanzania safari

"Fab time in Tanzania"
Both Selous and Ruaha were amazing places to get really close to the animals and the scenery was breathtaking. We would also like to thank Liz Wollen and Eleanor Dunkels at Expert Africa who spent a lot of time talking us through the different camps and locations. Their help was immeasurable and their advice was spot on. Our trip ran like clockwork and their recommendations were superb. Overall we had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it.
