Review about Lake Manyara National Park by peter the safari maniac
May be in Jan to July when it rains but this park has been drying up for last few years its sickening to go after nov when the heat is on .Deforestation catchin up or shall we say desertification. Its usually joined in with tarangire and ngorongoro to make a better package.

Review about Arusha National Park by peter the safari maniac
Not much excitement here the alternatives of Ngorongoro , Tarangire and manyara or even serengeti are better
Off beaten tack and great for a quick safari if you are in or near Dar es salaam
I stayed and always stay at Vumi Hills tented camp in Mikumi, 3 miles off main road, clean and excellent food .Tented camping from ordinary to luxurious rooms or tents.

Review about Kruger National Park by niknikjw
Here we saw all the big five except leopard. Our accommodation was in Mopane, up in the northern drier half of the park so the scenery wasn't the greatest, however these plenty of action with the wildlife. Like buffalo fighting on the road, elephants trumpeting and flapping ears at us, zebra stallions fighting and masses of birds. Also crocs and hyppos. While spotlighting at night we saw wild cats (not the big variety), hyenas and a very rare owl.

I stayed a week in makalali private game reserve, and do not forget all the wild animals, smells and atmosphere that I have found.I have one desire, to go back.
