Review about Zambezi Region by bianca
The Caprivi is very different from the rest of Namibia. It's marshes and great rivers full of hippos and crocodiles are surrounded by lush vegetation, which is home to a huge variety of birds too.

Review about Kruger National Park by Colin Summersgill
The possibility of seeing virtually any animal is always exciting. The fascination of being able to see just about any behaviour is also a bonus.
The park is so immense that it is impossible to rate all of it's scenery. There are certainly parts that are exceptionally beautiful, but others that can be monotonous.
The vibe can vary from completely brilliant to very frustrating, depending on the tourist season and business. There always parts where one can get away though and be alone in the bush.
The birding can be absolutely exceptional, again always with the excitement of the possibility of virtually anything turning up.

Review about Mkhuze Game Reserve by Colin Summersgill
Wildlife does not include all of the big five, but can be good for Black Rhino and especially good for Nyala.
This is a beautiful reserve with incredibly varying habitats, ranging from open savanna to sand forest to fever & fig forest. An added bonus is Nsumu Pan with it's hippos and fever tree-lined shore.
The bush vibe is good, you can really feel that you are out in the bush and away from it all, but can be quite busy at times.
This has to be one of the better birding spots in South Africa, with too many specials to list. This is mostly as a result of the incredible variation in habitats coupled to the warm sub-tropical climate.

Ancient Deserts and Burning Mountains
I've heard it told that in Namibia, the skeleton of the Earth has been laid bare. And certainly I've never been anywhere the underlying geology is so vividly displayed as here. From the red sand dunes of Sossusvlei, to the great white salt pan of Etosha, and from the desolate, windswept diamond fields of Tsau //Khaeb, to the granite outcrop of the Spitzkoppe, this is truly a land of striking contrasts!
The wildlife is fascinating too. Beetles that do a headstand to catch droplets of water condensing on their backs, snakes that dance across the sand dunes, mysterious elephants that wander through the desert, stately giraffes doing yoga in order to get a drink of water and elegant oryx, marching across the plains are just some of the animals that Namibia has to offer. The birdlife, particularly in the north, is gorgeous too.
Long dusty roads and a blazing sun burning out of the clearest blue sky imaginable give your soul space to roam. And it's all kept together by the smiling faces of friendly Namibians.
Namibia is a unique destination that has so much to offer!

A beautifull night and day safari
On the way to malawi we made a detour to see this beautifull park.
We drove from Chipata to the park and it was a beautifull drive.
We stopped at a camp site with an amazing view on the river and with a lot of hippos nearby. At night we had our first night safari and we managed to see practically all the night active wildlife of the park...wonderfull. The day after we had a day safari and again we managed to see lions, Hippos, elephants and many other animals.
I really recomend a visit in this park!

Review about Zambia by Follettomonello
Zambia is a wonderfull country! I travelled across this land in different trips and had no problems at all. People are overall very friendly and allways willing to help the visitors. I saw just two parks and I can not give an overall rating on the safari destinations in general but, as far as I have experienced, I was very satisfied

Visiting the Okavango Delta is an amazing, unforgettable experience
For the duration of the trip, I traveled with a guide from Zimbabwe who currently resides South Africa. For the trip to Okavango Delta, we met up with 8-10 polers who helped us navigate the delta and assisted us with the campsite and dinner.
Highlights:
Our guide. That man worked his butt off to make sure things went right, even when every other turn seemed to present some other problem. He turned the "bad" stuff into just a blip on our vacation timeline.
The Okavango Delta. The whole trip was amazing. Our campsite was only available by "polers" pushing us along in Makoros along hippo-created paths along the reeds. SO amazing. And the polers were friendly and fun and awesome to spend time with.
Seeing elephants. And zebras. And rhinos... no glass or fence separation. Just us with the animals. Not that that meant better photos of said experiences, however. We kept cracking jokes that people who went to a local zoo would have better pictures that we did, but only because those visitors had convenient protection from being attacked. ;-)
The helicopter ride (without helicopter doors!!) just after we exited the delta. The ride was an add-on but 100% worth it.
Seriously. I don't think there was a single place who wouldn't bend over backwards to help others.
The trip far, far exceeded my expectations.
