Review about Serengeti National Park by rick harner photo
The Serengeti is a large park and must not be missed. During the Wildebeest/Zebra migration of February and March, 2 million Wildebeest and Zebra are present. Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Hyena, Jackal are the main predators. The area boasts a wide variety of mammal and Bird species. A stay of five days in different areas is minimal. I rate this park Excellent for wildlife photography.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by rick harner photo
The abundance of wildlife amazing. Numerous antelope species are easily observed. Four of the Big Five can be observed including Lion, Elephant, Rhino and Buffalo. It should be a must destination when within Tanzania and most species can be seen easily in 2 days. I rate this park Excellent for wildlife photography.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by rick harner photo
The lake level is continually being depleted for agricultural interests and as such the ability to see hippo, flamingos and other water reliant species are being diminished. This park can be bypassed if on a tight schedule and/or budget. I rate this park Fair for wildlife photography.

Monkeying about in Arusha National Park
Arusha National Park is a small park close to the town of Arusha and Kilimanjaro Airport. While it boasts a rich variety of wildlife, you shouldn't expect the same game-viewing experience you will find in other national parks of Tanzania's northern circuit. It does have numerous black-and-white colobus monkey which are easily visible and are not found in the other parks. Common animals include giraffe, buffalo, zebra, bushbuck and warthog. In the northeast, the shallow alkaline Momella Lakes provide habitat for numerous species of water birds including Lesser and Greater Flamingo. Forest birds require work to see but experienced birders may be rewarded for their efforts. This park can be by-passed if on a tight schedule and or budget. I rate thes park Poor for wildlife photography.

Review about Chobe National Park by tosakan2000
I never saw so many elephants and hippos outside the water like there - even at 12.00 a.m.
But I saw many other animals too - much more than on my safari trips in South Africa and Namibia.

I was impressed by stunning nature far away from the civilisation.
My accommondation was a tent, that was build on a high platform. On that platform was a toilet and a shower with no roof. The valuables were stored in a box that was locked.
The excursions were very exciting, because we used a traditonal boat made of wood to reach our destination. I never walked by foot in an area, where animals like elephants, lions and leopards are living.
In the night, elephants and hippos walked through our camp. Summarized the three days were very exciting.
