place of plenty
The game viewing was phenomenal, all big cats, buffalo, elephants, Aardvark, nothing we didn't see. Wilderness Safaris Lodges we great, food outstanding. We stayed at Vumbura North and would recommend it to anyone. Xigera and Savuti were also fantastic. The staff was great in all three camps.

Spectacular but comfy adventure in the bush
I spent 3 days in the Bush with Sabi sands. Arrival in "bush taxi plane" was spectacular, and immediately I could spot my first lion. Guides were helpful and attentive, reserve had a very family atmosphere and food was great. And of course the wildlife was amazing, I could spot 4 out of the big 5 and come very close to lions and elephants. Great experience, I would highly recommend it!

Review about South Africa by jderozard
Maybe not as adventurous as other safari destinations, but perfect for those who want to experience wildlife with comfort.

Selous Game Reserve is one of Africa's best kept secrets. It is exspansive, pristine and breathtakin
Selous being the size of Switzerland is populated with no more than 170 people, we felt we were right in the heart of Africa, we felt privileged to experience the vastness of this untouched land.
Everything we experienced in Selous was second to none.

African Wilderness At Its Best
I stayed at the Rufiji River Camp which is one of the smaller camps in Selous. The proximity to the river meant we had the opportunity for a river safari and a walking safari as well as the traditional trips out on a 4x4.
Selous is wonderfully remote and we hardly saw another vehicle which in my opinion is the best way to experience a safari. The guides were good and spotted a lot of wildlife we may well have missed. The number of lakes meant there was always the chance to see wildlife and birdlife around there. We didn't see all the Big 5 but there were no rhino in the area where we stayed.
I loved my short stay in Tanzania and I will be going back.

Superb safari in Ruaha NP
Me and two of my friends started our three day, three night safari by flying in to Ruaha Mwakusi airstrip. From there we were picked up by our guides and headed out to the wild. We had excellent guide crew, they had wide knowledge of animals and plants and were really nice company for us. Also the bush lunches they served us were really tasty.
Ruaha is full of animals, already during the first hours of the first day we saw huge amount of them, including lions and leopard. And the same continued the following days, possibly the biggest highlight was watching pack of four cheetah to stalk their prey for few hours. Overall we counted that we saw something like thirty different mammals, and at least as many birds. Scenery of the park was very nice, there was a lot of variety and not just flat plans. It was also not crowded at all there, we perhaps saw one or two other cars there, so we were pretty much on our own all the time.
We stayed at the Mdonya Old River camp, which is open area where animals can (and will) roam freely. We enjoyed listening to the nightly noises around our tents, we preferred that over lodge accommodation. Everything worked smoothly in the camp, and the dinners they made us were of highest quality. Exchanging experiences of the day at campfire with other travelers was nice ending for a day.
I can fully recommend Ruaha for your safari destination, you will enjoy the peace you have compared to the other crowded parks and all it has to offer. One of us has been in many parks in Africa before, and he considered it possibly the best experience he has had so far. I can easily believe him.

Beautiful Wild Free Ranging Animals - Magnificent Sunsets and River Scenery
From the comfort of the river, one can see Hippos [X], Elephants [X], BIRDS [X], Monkeys [X]. Of course, be sure to go to Victoria Falls too! Lovely Dinner Sunset Cruise (took it twice). Enjoyable Elephant Ride.There's ultralight gliding, white water rafting, and the Livingstone Museum.
Bring mosquito repellent. I was there in June/July and the mozzies came out at dusk.
