My Dec 2023 trip

Tanzania and 1 other country between 3 Dec 2023 and 16 Dec 2023

Trip rating: Excellent
"We had the absolutely best time. Expert Africa help create an unforgettable trip for us both, it is quite expensive but you definitely get what you pay for. All flights and transfers went smoothly. Safari and Lamai in particular were the standout highlights. The quality of game viewing in the Serengeti was excellent. Tanzania as a country is beautiful and we found the locals all very friendly. Our safari guides were excellent and really added to the experience. This was easily the best holiday we have been on and really would love to go back to Tanzania. We probably wouldn't do Zanzibar again but focus more on safari. Thank you to everyone who made this a truly incredible experience."

Gibb's Farm

Gibb's Farm

"Gibb's Farm review"

2 nights Arrived 4 Dec 2023
"We had a super 2 nights at Gibbs Farm, staff very welcoming. Setting is excellent. Lots of daily activities going on and plenty to do. Close enough to the Ngorongoro Crater for a day trip which was excellent. Room was huge with a lovely balcony overlooking the farm. Food was probably the highlight here, most meals were made from produce from the local farm. Took around 4 hours from Kilimanjaro airport via car but would definitely do this again. Worthwhile staying here if thinking about doing Ngorongoro Crater."

Safari in Ngorongoro Crater

Safari in Ngorongoro Crater

"Safari in Ngorongoro Crater review"

5 Dec 2023 • All-day excursion

Great day trip to the Crater, absolute abundance of animals everywhere. Backdrop of the crater against the animals is incredible. Density of animals is unlike any safari we have been on before. Felt a bit more 'touristy' compared to our Serengeti safari, with many more vehicles about. Would definitely recommend doing if you are nearby or passing, one day is definitely enough though

Lamai Serengeti

Lamai Serengeti

"Lamai Serengeti review"

3 nights Arrived 6 Dec 2023
"Lamai is absolutely outstanding. This was the standout highlight of our trip. The setting of the camp is just breathtaking, sitting on top of a hill overlooking the vast Serengeti. Staff were incredible, our guide Raj, Senate and camp manager James all went above and beyond to make this an unforgettable experience. Game viewing was incredible, had multiple cheetah, lion and leopard sightings despite the tall grass etc. It is difficult to explain just how amazing our game drives were, going out first thing before the sun was up was magical. Breakfast in the bush was a delight. Words fail to convey just how special our time was at Lamai, we are already planning to go back!"

Qambani

Qambani

"Qambani review"

6 nights Arrived 9 Dec 2023
"Very enjoyable stay at Qambani. Food was great with new lunch and dinner menu daily with great fish dishes. Is about 90 minutes from Stone Town so we didn't feel a day trip there was worth it. We opted for snorkelling from a nearby beach which was good fun and coral was pretty vibrant. Was a welcome rest after a busy week on safari. Beach is quite nice for a walk, it is very tidal but when the tide is in it is beautiful."
