Excellent wildlife viewing at Hluhluwe-Imfolozi...elephants galore!
I've been to Hluhluwe-Imfolozi 2 years in a row while staying at a lodge nearby. It's a fantastic park with lots and lots of roads to explore. The traffic isn't light, but it's not super crowded, there's definitely places where you can find animals/birds on your own and feel like you're completely isolated.
I was able to watch the large herd of elephants moving through the park one morning for 30-45 minutes. I saw maybe 200+ elephants all together.

Very scenic landscapes and warm peoples
The national parks were everything we expected - very scenic landscapes, diverse wildlife and great weather. Our host, Nathaneal from African Big Cats Safaris, was a super host and very knowledgeable about wildlife and Tanzanian cultures. We enjoyed every moment with him.
Tanzania truly is a host country, we'll definitely be returning!
Review about Kruger National Park by Amy
We had a great experience in Kruger, especially due to our oustanding guide, Simon. We stayed in the rondavels in Skukuza, which were very clean and comfortable. Skukuza camp has everything you need and is very pleasant.

Safe trip with Kenya expresso
Me and my husband had a very pleasent trip in Kenya in September. Paul was very helpful to manage our trip. He answered to all our question in a short time. Kenya is beautifull. We had a very nice guide, our "big baboon" Lucky! He did all to make us feel safe and he always try to satisfay our request. Just a regret...we could not to see the leopard, but we saw lions, cheetah and a lot of beautifull and savage animals! We will never forget Lucky! All the Hotels was perfectly inserted to the african nature and very comfortables. Thank you for all!

Tanzania safari wildlife is amazing!
Safari in Tanzania is amazing, we saw all the big 5 (Rhino at a distance). The Serengeti was amazing for big cats, Ngorngoro crater was beautiful and Tarangire was brilliant for Elephants. If your looking for wildlife on Safari, Tanzania is the place to go.
Review about Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve by Andy
This is a great reserve to see Rhino. The roads aren't great but worth the effort as the scenery is beautiful.

Great wildlife, friendly people, good value
Our driver guide was very very good, did everything with us in mind, getting us good positions and locations when ever possible. Chimp tracking and mountain gorilla tracking were the obvious highlights. Weather in June means the end of the rainy season, and while we had a couple of huge cloudbursts, they were over in short period of time. June would appear to be a very good time to visit Uganda. The country appears to be safe as a tourist destination, and at no time were we threatened or felt unsafe. A very enjoyable experience.

Way off the beaten track
This is a fantastic park to visit if you have already been to other, more popular, national parks in East /Southern Africa. It's not the kind of place where you will see a vast variety of animals (elephants being the main one here), though you will get to see a decent amount of different animals and birds, and not forgetting plenty of wonderful baobabs. What you will get, though, is the feeling that it's just you and your 4WD out in the vast wilderness, exploring somewhere truly remote. The roads are rough with lots of growth so that you often can't work out what is the road in front of you. But this just adds to the excitement.
The scenery is beautiful as well, so there are lots of upsides to this place.
