Review about Lake Manyara National Park by JD~PHOTOGRAPHY
A beautiful park but a bit difficult to find wildlife such as lions and elephants.

Uganda deserves its title as the pearl of Africa.
We were fortunate to stay 3 weeks for a trip around Uganda with N'Goni safaris, from end November to mid December 2023. Despite the rain season still ongoing the weather was pretty good all the time. The boat ride to see the source of Nile in Jinja was really good and a good start (we did not feel doing rafting). The Kidepo NP was on our tour, and the 8 hours of "African massage" going there form Sipi falls (the road is still being built) were soon forgotten. Another highlight was the Rhino sactuary which is also a great experience. The other big NP were also good to see and experience. Not to mention Bwindi NP and the amazing gorilla trek!! This is THE place to see gorilla!
We were able to see the big five (even if lions were not that close and absent from due to floading in the Ishasha region) and many other species (birds and mammals).
The landscape was varied (with the largest tea plantations we had ever seen), and we had the opportunity to meet different cultures in Uganda.
We definitely recommend Uganda as a country for safari and discovery of Africa.

A wonderful trip with an excellent safari company!
We booked our tour in early january, so there was not much time to set everything up. We had a 12 day tour which took us from Entebbe to Kidepo Valley National Park and Murchison Falls. We drove all the way by car. This was a bit exhausting, but you get to see country which is pretty interesting. However the trip was a real success. Richard, the head of the company, is a very eager guy. We experienced some problems with the lodging, but Richard sorted it out pretty quick. So in the end it was a great journey with an excellent tour operator. I can really recommend booking with Tamani Africa Tours!

It’s stunning and very welcoming
All 3 parks were special. In Masai Mara we saw many different animals and there was the possibility to visit a Masai village. In Lake Nakuru we saw the rhino and many different birds. In Amboseli you could see the Kilimanjaro. In our lodge near to Amboseli a group of Masai was performing dances and the characteristic jumps. That was fun. The weather was warm, around 20 to 25 degrees and rain was occurring very seldomly. Our driver drove very good and safely and he knew how to handle every situation perfectly. We felt very safe.

Lake Manyara is a perfect place for birdwatchers and a gentle introduction to safari for others.
We've seen lots of Elephants in the Lake Manyara National Park. Really, lots of them. And they were so close! We didn't manage to get so close to elephants in Serengeti as we did in Manyara.
It's also a terrific place for bird-watching. We were not a great birds enthusiasts but seeing so many flamingos at one place was a wonderful experience.
If you are not a birdwatcher I would recommend visiting Manyara before entering Serengeti. It's just a great introduction to Safari. You can also spend a night near Manyara in a comfortable lodge instead of campsite. Lodges are much cheaper here than in Serengeti or Ngorongoro.

A wonderful introduction to Kwazulu Natal
Booked with Tailor Made safaris following a recommendation and were very pleased with the service. I have mobility issues but a plan was made to help with this so we could experience wildlife, the battlefields and some of the Drakensberg. We loved the Zululand Rhino Reserve, St Lucia and Huhluwe-Omfolozi. The tour of Isandwala and Rourke's Drift with a Zulu guide was inspiring and fascinating, and the Drakensberg were everything we had expected. Great accommodation, good catering and a comfortable vehicle, all at an affordable price. We would happily use them again and indeed hope to do so in the not too distant future.

Review about Kruger National Park by romicom
The best of it all is the Kruger: good restaurant, excellent facilities and dedicated knowledgeable staff.

Amazing Landscapes
It's been amazing and breathtaking experience to visit Kenya for 7 days.
Our first safari guide "Raymond" was really nice and helpful. Within 2 hours of first safari day in Masai Mara, he helped to spot majority of the animals.
Food quality was bit disappointing most of the times as it was bit monotonous.

A must-go place!
It's been my second time in South Africa and I'm sure it won't be the last!
This country has a vibrant culture. I love everything about SA: the people are super friendly, the food is delicious, the places are wonderful and so on. I highly recommend a visit to everyone who is looking for some adventure and a unique experience. This country has a lot to offer!
My experience on the safari will be unforgettable. Unfortunately I didn't get to see the lions, but this won't make my experience less memorable - I guess this is my excuse to come back again :)
The guides were doing their best to give us the best moments with a lot to teach and share. They were all very punctual and nice.
I did the one-day-tour in the Kruger and two days in the Greater Kruger. Next time I'll choose more days in the Kruger , the park is huge and deserves more attention.
My accommodation couldn't have been better. I spent four nights at the African Rock Lodge and they nailed it!!! They were awesome!
Thanks a lot Shinzelle for the great job! And Safari bookings for helping us find the best options.
