My Aug 2012 trip
Tanzania between 18 Aug 2012 and 25 Aug 2012
"We had an amazing time and it certainly surpassed our expectations. We feel that both places were the real Africa and were not touristy, sterile hotels.
We were made to feel very welcome.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
It was a very good service and Liz [Ed: of Expert Africa] was very helpful. We probably would not have known about Ras Kutani without her and Expert Africa.This was a good alternative to Zanzibar.
We would certainly use the company again and will recommend it to friends."

Lake Manze Adventure Camp
"Lake Manze Tented Camp review"
3 nights
Arrived
19 Aug 2012
"We feel that although there are more luxurious camps available than here that this is in keeping with the bush and nature. The different activities, walks, boat trips & drives, were excellent and gave varying views of the wildlife and surroundings. 3 nights, 4 days was an ideal amount of time to stay.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the food was good. As it was our birthdays we had a private meal on our verandah one night and a birthday cake on the other. The tents had everything you needed.
We saw all the wildlife we wanted to see including wild dogs, which was one of the reasons we choose to come here, and the elusive leopard."

Ras Kutani, Tanzania (this camp has since closed)
"Ras Kutani review"
3 nights
Arrived
22 Aug 2012
"Is even better than the photos! We choose this resort hotel to rest after our safari as it is small, not touristy and 'African.'
The chalets were lovely and ours had an amazing view of the ocean and the lagoon. The food was excellent and, as it was our birthdays, we had a private dinner on the boat landing jetty and a birthday cake. The staff were very friendly and attentive, referring to us by name. There were few activities but as we were resting after our safari this is one of the reasons we choose to come here.
Most people on safari were going to Zanzibar but as we wanted minimal travel this was the perfect beach break to end our holiday. We flew from Selous Game Reserve direct to Ras Kutani with Coastal Aviation."
