Review about Kakamega Forest National Reserve by Chris M.
Not your usual safari - it's a rain forest not a savannah. Exceptional for birding and hiking. Lots of monkeys and chimpanzees too.
Review about Hell's Gate National Park by Chris M.
Great place to get out of the truck and join the wildlife. Ride a mountain bike alongside zebras and gazelles. Explore sandstone caverns.
Review about Botswana by Buddy from MagnumExcursions
Considerng the Okavango Delta, Chobe NP, Moremi and Linyanti, you have amazing water settings for both birders as well as those loving larger animals. In addition there is the wonderful Kalahari, the Kgalagadi and Makgadikgadi to add a more desert/parched vibe for viewing wildlife. All of this and we haven't even discussed the Tuli Block's Mashatu.
Review about Masai Mara National Reserve by Chris M.
The best of the best. The classic safari experience not to be missed. If you have only one place to go on safari go to Masai Mara.

Review about South Africa by Jordanar
We went also to Bostwana, but at South Africa the Bush experience was better and all the animals were easy to see.
Review about Botswana by Jillian and Brett, USA
We left a piece of our hearts in Botswana. The people are simply wonderful. The landscape is magical. Communication is very easy and the lodges we visited were outstanding. We love Botswana so much that we talk about dropping everything and moving there almost daily.

Review about Budongo Forest by matan
Not as many colors and diversity as the rest of my trip, but still a very strong felling of virginity. very beautiful trees and alot of bird sounds, but you can't see them.
Kenya offers a wide range of national parks, each with specific highlights
In September 2014 I visited the national parks (or game reserves) Samburu, Nakuru, Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsave E and Tsavo W. Samburu is very dry, but offers quite different wildlife (eg giraffe gazelle or Grevy's zebra). Nakuru is nice for Flamingos, but in 2014 it rained too much so there were only few. Masai Mara is clearly the highlight, but also very crowded. Amboseli offers big herds of elephants and postcard shots with Mt Kili. Tsavo W is too bushy to spot wildlife. Tsavo E has big elephants.
Review about South Africa by Yogan Naidoo
We saw the big 5 in one day and a rhino was right on our side so much so that we could touch him if we wanted to but obviously did not!
