Tailor-made S. Tanzania Safari by PJB Teddington, 25 Oct 2016
Holiday Rating:

An absolutely amazing safari followed by a wonderful beach chill-out

The safari, to Selous and Ruaha, was the best we have ever been on, both in terms of the game to see and the quality of the accommodation. It was really well organised, and all went like clockwork but with a very human touch. The week we had on the north eastern Zanziabar coast aftervthe safari was really relaxing in a beautiful place with really good friendly service.

60th birthday trip to the eclipse in Tanzania

Since my birthday and the solar eclipse were so close I decided to knock something off my bucket list as a birthday gift. My husband and I went to Tanzania on safari to see the solar eclipse and snorkel off Zanzibar. We spent time in Ruaha and Selous. Both parks had lovely "glamps" and plenty of game and bird sightings. I would not have gone to Tanzania except that the eclipse was best seen there. I was wrong. It was better than my previous ...

Since my birthday and the solar eclipse were so close I decided to knock something off my bucket list as a birthday gift. My husband and I went to Tanzania on safari to see the solar eclipse and snorkel off Zanzibar. We spent time in Ruaha and Selous. Both parks had lovely "glamps" and plenty of game and bird sightings. I would not have gone to Tanzania except that the eclipse was best seen there. I was wrong. It was better than my previous trips to Namibia, South Africa, Zambia or even Botswana.

I have been to subsaharan Africa 7 times but this is the first time I used Expert Africa. Their website caught my eye and proved to be a superb resource. Ellie was prompt pleasant and professional. When I had trouble paying the final installment on the web I shot off an email and they returned it almost immediately (even though it was 1 AM GMT). Turned out it was my fault as I didn't know my husband had already made an account. I will use Expert Africa for any future travel to Africa even though they are in England and I am in the USA.

The trip of a lifetime!

Two weeks in Tanzania: one on safari in Selous and Ruaha game reserves/parks in great lodges, going on thrilling games drives and spotting wonderful animals and birds. Followed by a week on Mafia and Chole islands in the Indian Ocean, relaxing, snorkelling and seeing baby turtles hatch.

The perfect start into safaris

Starting out with a day in Daressalam in fabulous Southern Sun Dar, we spent a week on safari on two different and very complementary parks, Selous and Ruaha. Our lodges were wonderful, very remote, in the middle of the park, with great individual attention making us feeling at home. Our assigned guides were brilliant, very committed, insightful and knowledgeable and always going the extra mile to show us something special. We finished our holiday ...

Our lodges were wonderful, very remote, in the middle of the park, with great individual attention making us feeling at home. Our assigned guides were brilliant, very committed, insightful and knowledgeable and always going the extra mile to show us something special. We finished our holiday with 6 days in Zanzibar, enjoying the special flair of the island as well as the wonderful beach, including kite surfing, snorkeling and visits to a spice farm and Stone Town. Altogether one of the best holidays we ever had and certainly one that will get us back to Tanzania.

Rating for tour operator:

Being new to safaris and travelling with two teenagers, we received excellent advice from Expert Africa on how to plan our trip. This already started with choosing the right country and duration of the trip as well as the most suitable lodges and parks. Travel Expert then took care of every detail of the trip, all bookings of hotels, lodges, and flights, and provided us with all necessary information for preparation, so when we started out, there was nothing left for us than just enjoying the trip to its utmost. We would clearly go again with Expert Africa after this experience!

Professional and knowledgeable. Not "cheap" but the standard is high so that it feels like value for money

Incredible!

I booked my trip to Africa through Expert Africa. It was my first time travelling to Africa and I was travelling solo. Expert Africa and I worked together and looked at which types of camps would best suit me and what would be within my budget and I ended up going to Tanzania and Zanzibar for the most incredible experience of my life! The camps I went to in Ruaha and the Selous were the perfect choices, as was my stay in Zanzibar.

Wonderfully knowledgeable and helpful in the investigation and the decision process. No pressure selling at all. Once the holiday was booked everything went so smoothly. I am sure these holidays are not easy to organise, but it all went completely to plan. Top marks!
