Review about Kakamega Forest National Reserve by Wim
Apparently quite unique wildlife (butterflies) but too small and too close to the people

Review about Lake Bogoria National Reserve by hollisa
Nice lake with some hot springs and many flamingos but less mammals. If you combine it with a stay at Lake Baringo, it´s more interesting!
Review about Tanzania by Trym
The are parks of similar size and similar wildlife in other African countries that matches Mikumi.
Review about Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park by Chris Sparks
Saw the rhino, (walking with a guard!), but it was a nice drive, convenient, near the Falls; a nice beginners safari.
An adventure; a good story.
We arrived at Blue Lagoon in the dry season and boy was it dry. We set up camp under the tree, and the staff helped us fill a paddling pool for the kids. The old house was great to eat in and was a welcome hint at civilisation, and had plenty of character. Unfortunately when we set off the next morning to see the park our van wouldn't start, the rest of the day was spent walking to the airstrip to stand under the only tree where a cell phone would work and try to get help to come during the week of one of the refinery shut downs, so fuel was scarce. Fortunately a couple of guys who were looking at starting a camp were visiting for the day and took my wife and kids back to Lusaka. Our mechanic flew in in his BMW at about midnight, crashed into a tree, fixed the van in 5 minutes, and we were home with a memory, a story, but no safari.

Review about Lewa Wildlife Conservancy by Ian Macfadyen
This place felt a little artificial. I was perturbed to discover that I had to pay conservancy fees, I'd been given the impression that in staying there rather than at a lodge in a National Park, there's be a saving in respect of park entrance fees. In the event, I don't think it worked out any cheaper. We didn't see as much game as we'd hoped for, no lions for example.

Review about Aberdare National Park by Ian Macfadyen
Not quite the Africa one expects! More like North Wales! Some areas were astoundingly beautiful - scores highly on scenic value. Elephants very shy and retiring compared with those we're used to seeing at Amboseli and Masai Mara.

Review about Thornybush Game Reserve by mbd
Maybe we were very unlucky to have a guide who was determined to show us yet more elephants and completely ignored the leopard I spotted because it was time to get back to camp. We don't like this attitude of rushing people from one big 5to the next as if they were the only worthwhile animals to see
