"Overall a great holiday"
I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 13 Nov 2009 and 27 Nov 2009
"Overall trip was excellent.
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

"Tanzania Honeymoon Feedback"
I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 24 Aug 2009 and 8 Sep 2009
"The places we stayed were all we hoped they would be and more.
The Z-Hotel and its location may not be everyone preference, especially for those seeking a more isolated, santatised type "Maldives" experience. For my Wife and I it was a perfect change to the "Maldives" type experience as we travelled to the Maldives last September.
The Safari was simply amazing on all levels !!
We would not have changed anything ... although at a push knowing what I know now I may have opted for an alternate hotel in Dar es Salaam for the last night." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 8 on a Zanzibar holiday

"An amazing honeymoon in Tanzania!"
I visited Zanzibar and 1 other country between 25 Aug 2008 and 2 Sep 2008
"We had high expectations of our 9 day honeymoon to Tanzania - of seeing some great wildlife in Selous, of the clear waters and white beaches of Zanzibar and the hustle and bustle of Stone Town. All our expectations were met and even exceeded whilst on safari."

"Safari & beach combo"
I visited Tanzania and 1 other country between 16 Jun 2007 and 1 Jul 2007
"The combination of 1 week safari and 1 week Zanzibar worked well for us. Visiting Selous and Ruaha was worthwhile as they have very different scenery. Zanzibar was very relaxing after the early starts in the game parks.
In the Stone Town make sure you visit Archipelago at lunchtime and Livingstone Beach in the evening.
Coastal Aviation helpfully held the Dar - Selous flight to wait for the delayed BA" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 7 on a Tanzania safari
