Serengeti is awesome, but...
Overall rating
4/5

I've always had a dream of going on a safari in Africa. In 2014 I finally had the chance to do so, and I got to spend three days in Serengeti and Ngorongoro.

First of all, Serengeti is huge. Much bigger than I expected. We had to drive for a while to even get there, and when we got there, we drove more. And more. And more. Searching for wildlife. I thought the animal density would be bigger than it was, but was actually surprised in a positive way to find out it wasn't. Didn't want to think I was in a zoo either.

The first animal we spotted was actually the animal we didn't expect to see; a leopard. Sitting there, on his own, in the middle of the plain, surrounded by 20-30 safari vehicles. This is probably the thing that "ruins" the safari experience the most; all the people that surrounds the animals at all times, specially if you spot one of the great 5.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime-experience to get the chance to sleep in a tent in the middle of the Serengeti. We could hear the animals make noises not very far away, and I just waited for a lion or a hyena to come over an knock on my tent door. Actually, in Ngorongoro, I had to get through a flock of zebras to get to the toilet. Not something you get to do everyday!

What you have to do while you're in Serengeti is to take a hot air balloon ride. You start early in the morning, mayube 4 am, and get to see the sunrise from up in the air while the animals below you just look at you. It is a truly amazing experience!

All in all; safari is a great experience. I spotted every animal I wanted to see, except from the cheetah.

Maybe next time. I'm not done with Africa. Not at all.

4/5

The safari was magnificent. We saw a ton of wildlife. All the guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. We roughed it and decided to do Glamping for our three nights stay. Everything was clean, safe., Staff was wonderful and made you feel right at home And they all made sure we were at our destinations on time. The chef created delicious meals we did not go hungry.
We couldn’t ask for better experience.

Number 1 Spot Serengeti National Park
Overall rating
5/5

Serengeti National Park is no doubt was truly a different experience.
A hidden paradise. It is such an amazing place that makes you want to leave the civilised world for good.
We stayed at Lamai Serengeti Lodge for 4 days and it was very near Serengeti National Park.
Everyday I wish there is no ending. The Game viewing at the park is endless. I saw the migration of wildebeest & Zebras, different cats, group of Elephants, Group of Giraffes, Spotted Rhinos (Please let's save them!), beautiful birds, Thomson's gazelle, group of Hippopotamus & Crocodiles, etc.

After Serengeti National Park we headed to Ngorongoro National Park for another 4 days.
Ngorongoro is beautiful and has its own characteristics but Serengeti is even more beautiful because it gives you the real touch of WILD AFRICAN SAFARI.

First week of July 2015. It was the best time for us, not so crowded, temperature is fantastic, not so dusty, bushes not that tall and you can easily spot the animals. We also had an unforgettable close encounter with 3 male lions while our car didn't have any window at all ( It was terrifying & fun experience).

We would like to praise our Guide and Lamai Serengeti Staff for providing us an unforgettable vacation in Serengeti.
To our Guide, he was extremely knowledgeable and always very polite and we learnt a lot from him. He is one of the best guide we've ever seen. I think he is a very valuable asset to Nomad Tanzania Company

Convenient
Overall rating
3/5

Nairobi National Park is pleasant, but its biggest perk is its closeness to the capital city of Nairobi. There was a reasonable variety of animals, such as zebra, giraffe and antelope. There were reportedly some lions nearby, but we weren't able to see them.

Good for a day trip, but if you want a more thorough safari experience you will have to go further afield.

Thank's for all your help during our stay in Kenya, you were so thoughtful, nice and dedicated. We felt so welcome and the safari was just wonderful. Excellent jeeps, sovereign drivers, thrilling accommodations and yummy food. We'll come back, just be sure about that. Bye from Hugo and Marina from Perth Western Australia.

We went to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire National Park. I expected to see some animals but we saw SO much more than I was anticipating! The weather was beautiful and the scenery getting from one place to another was spectacular.

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by Karla Laguna

4/5

I saw the White rhinos very near! Also is a place to watch flamingos, ask before if they are closer to watch, because in some cases they are far.
