Excellent day at the start of a 9 day safari adventure
We arrived in time to have lunch overlooking the Ngorongoro Crater from our hotel. We were up before sunrise and set out to the gates. As the first vehicle into the crater, we instantly spotted a white rhino. From there we experienced the sunrise over the crater as we continued to see all the animals we had dreamed of seeing on safari, including lions finishing off a meal from the night before, elephants, ostriches, baboons. We had breakfast looking out over the hippo pool - very scenic and beautiful spot for a rest. Later on, we were fortunate to be able to see a serval cat hunting its prey. We headed back out of the crater in time for a late lunch. Prior to departure for the Serengeti, we enjoyed one last sunrise over the crater.
Review about Tanzania by Elaine
Tanzania has so much to offer as a safari destination and visitors have the opportunity to see so much wildlife and bird life. The landscape is more beautiful than I had imagined, with the lovely shaped acacia trees to the more exotic looking baobab and euphorbia trees. Sunrises and sunsets are incredible. We were also very fortunate to be able to see the wildebeest crossing the Mara River.

Best trip ever !!
My husband and I just got back from a 10 day Safari In Tanzania. Shadow's of Africa was the company we used and we couldn't be happier. They were very professional and always there for us when we had questions. This was our first Safari and definitely not the last and I would book with them again, they were so helpful in finding something that was good for us , making us feel so comfortable through the whole process. We enjoyed everything about our trip, we saw amazing wildlife and a lot of it , our guide was fantastic,the food was good everywhere and the lodges were all amazing. We had been wanting to do A Safari for a long time and this was above all expectations. Don't wait and book ur trip !!

good experience: responsive, available and committed
I have been working few times with Hello Tanzania for booking of plane and boat tickets and they have always meet my expectations through a good face to face and email communication. The director of the agency did not count her time to remain available late in the evening to hand me over the tickets. One day she even forgot to take her commission for the service the agency provided ! I have refered them to my friends and they were satisfied with the services.
NNP urgemtly need quick revamp....boring place
I visited NNP december 2015 after more than 5yrs.
1.Surely this place need revamp.Animal orphnage looks du from entrance all way to cages looks same and old.seats , cages,dustbins are old.elephants skelotons shud be replaced and mounted or hanged in attractive housing.this place is lion den and full of smell.
2~There are no animals in safari walk or any kws work to do something to attract them from hidding place to the watching spots.
3-Why shud one pay twice ...orphanage and safari walk....it shud be once.cashier at safariwalk on 27th december asked my kids age thinking i was lyjng that are under 18.....he sounded rude.
All in all this place cannot compete with even orphanges and nations with imported animals.
At one point the lioned roared and kids were afraid but noticed they wanted to be freed from cages since was already 11am.
Kws shud use monies to change this place....it is boring to see animals without someone explaning.....can staff be tasked to take group of 10 -20 around....this will have desired results...know heritage kr animals

One day in Tarangire
I spent a night and a day in the Tarangire National Park in late August. The park is very beautiful and rich in animal species. Countless are the presence of species of birds, in particular, I noted the inseparable black face. Also thick is the presence of elephants and wildebeest. And 'here, after so much time in Africa, I observed a pair of cheetahs. To note the beautiful view from the picnic area with the background of the Tarangire River at sunset. Must see.

It was a fascinating experience, with a great variety of wildlife to photograph and admire.
Addo Elephant National Park, is a must see park on any visit to South Africa. It may not hold the Big Five, but it provides visitors the ability to see a huge variety of resident wildlife in a superb setting. Getting about inside the park is easy, on well maintained tracks open to all visitors and other private tracks for use by park staff, who will guide you see the stars of the park, in open backed vehicles.
On our trip there, we had three game drives, two in our own vehicle, which was superb as we were able to go anywhere we wanted, on the public tracks and able to take as much time as we wanted in one place. The third game drive we did in the evening as the sun was going down and was in one of the open backed park vehicles. Our guide CJ was fantastic, a very funny guy with a great knowledge of the park and it's residents. He introduced us to Melvin and Gibson, two adult male Lions, who were snoozing off a large meal they had recently eaten, a wonderful experience. Part of this drive included a picnic, set up by the driver/guide who got us close to Elephants to watch as we tucked into our food and drinks. I would highly recommended this organised game drive, worth every penny.
They have a super restuarant, shop and area explaining what you might see in the park.
The scenery is amazing too, vast expanses of grass and scrubland to drive around, with plenty of contours to allow different views.
