Excellent experience at the Serengeti National Park
We just came back from a 11 day safari in northern Tanzania followed by a 3 day stop over in Zanzibar. We visited Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Ngorongoro crater and ended up in iconic Serengeti National Park. In the Serengeti, we visited central Serengeti and the northern part near the Mara river. We stayed at lodges and tented camps.
Throughout our stay, we found the lodging to be excellent that far exceeded our expectations. The highlight of our trip was staying at the Lemala tented camps in the Serengeti and the Maramboi tented camp near Lake Manyara. The experience of staying in the bush and experiencing nature as it was intended was a pure bliss.
In term of the flora and the fauna, we felt we were in the garden of eden. We got to see all the animals we wanted the see (the big five) and much much more. I am an avid photographer and I was able to get some good memories of this place.

Great Value for Money
I booked my tour at quite late notice and wild dogs were great with the booking and always available for answering questions. I did the 7 day south and 7 day northern tour. Camping was great fun, there was lots of excursions and sites included in both trips. The tour guides were very knowledgeable and made the trip run smoothly. One of the groups was a size of 8 and the other a size of 14. 8 was a perfect size, but 14 felt too large. I would definitely recommend them to independent travellers, who want to explore Namibia.

Uganda tour
We booked a 12day tour through uganda with Pearl Afric Tours and travel and had a great experience. The country is extremly beautiful and the cottages or hotels were very nice and had a magnificent view.
Can highly recommend our guide and driver Robert.

Safaris with Flash Mc Tours
We went on two safari tours. The first was to Amboseli and the second was to Nakuru, Navaisha and Hell's Gate. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience, which was tailor -made to fit our needs. We had an excellent driver and guide in Cyrus, who was safe, knowledgeable, accommodating and punctual. All the travel arrangements proceeded smoothly and whilst on safari the range of wildlife seen exceeded our expectations.
Although we would certainly use the company again, it would be good to have a credit card facility for payments since withdrawing large amounts of Kenyan shillings proved an expensive process.
Truly the Bird Watchers Paradise!
I loved the spectacular game drive and the beautiful scenery of the Flamingos!!

Maximum miles in minimum time from Windhoek to Vic Falls
In May I joined the 9 Days Delta and Vic Falls Tour. The itinerary turned out to be well planned, the campsites were better than expected, we usually stayed on the campsite of a lodge with all the benefits like swimmingpool or sundowner bar. That was excellent. There were plentiful activities on the road, like folk performances in the San camp or nature walks in the Okavango.
I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants a good first overview in order to plan later trips. A comfortable trip - though with long, long bus rides - with very good catering. Our guides Willem and Abiud were extremely helpful and anticipated every individual need. Thanks again for being like fathers!!!
I hope Wild Dog will invest in the equipment. The overall impression was that many items were neglected or downright grubby (sorry, but that's a fact).

Must visit if you're looking for Elephant encounter
This was the first park of our Safari Itinerary. The weather was perfect for this trip - cloudy overcast with some occasional sprinkles, but due to heavy rains prior few days some of the roads in the park were closed, so we didn't get a chance to visit all planned areas, but those that we have visited were amazing. I was expecting a little bit less folks/tourists there, but this is subjective. We've got to see giraffes, gazelles, monkeys, ostriches. But the most memorable encounter was with the herd of elephants, counting about 20. They crossed dirt road we were on and you can see all of them from few feet distance - amazing.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Maulik Nathavani
Massive crater. Looks like a plain grassland from above. But once inside it, it has a variety of animals and birds. Must watch is the Rhino and the Flamingoes.

Amazing to see the animals in wild, in their natural habitat !
Serengeti is one of world's renowned National Park for maintaining its Natural habitat. As a first time goer to Africa, i would say Serengeti kept up to its name. Quite lucky to witness big five and many other animals and birds. As a enthusiast photographer, I would say it is a brilliant opportunity if one wants to picture wildlife.
