A great place to view Elephants up close and personal and some great safari camps!
Overall rating
4/5

We spent two days in Tarangire National park searching for the famous tree lions. We didn't spot any lions in tree's but did see a Male Lion mating a number of times. We also got up close and personal with a lot of Elephants including viewing baby elephants. The two camps we stayed at in Tarangire where also a highlight. Both luxury tented campsites which really gave you the impression of being out in the wilderness amongst the animals. Would highly recommend the Kikoti Safari Camp.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by mpotechin
Overall rating
4/5

The most fascinating part of Ngorongoro is the first look you get upon cresting the rim of the crater. You can see miles in each direction, and down 600 metres to the floor.
Most of the Big-5 is on display – we did not see a leopard, but experienced our only rhinoceros sighting here. But for whatever reason, the feel is more like an extremely large zoo. The animals seem to keep to themselves and not interact with each other significantly.
Also within the Ngorongoro conservation area is a scattering of Masai villages, and it is fascinating to see how the villagers live. Finally, Ngorongoro is the location of Olduvai Gorge, which is an incredible archaeological site for human evolution.

Review about Tarangire National Park by mpotechin
Overall rating
5/5

Tarangire may be “the” place in the world to visit if you are interested in elephants. In two short game drives through this park we saw more elephants, in larger families, and closer to the roads, than in the rest of our safari combined. They say that the lion is the king of the jungle... but even lions are cautious around elephants.
Elephants are not the only attraction here. We saw giraffe, zebra, hippos, lions, baboons... truly, most of the wildlife in the other parks are also present here. But they are often found interacting with the elephants, because in Tarangire, elephants are the star.
We discovered that many of the tourists who were doing shorter safaris than ours were skipping their drive through Tarangire. I cannot stress this enough: that is a huge mistake.

Review about Serengeti National Park by mpotechin
Overall rating
5/5

Serengeti during the dry season is the image the people have when they think safari. It is The Lion King brought to life. Brown grasses as far as the eye can see, sometimes with a tree breaking the monotony.
We decided to spend a morning viewing the Serengeti from a hot-air balloon. It was expensive, but well worth the money we spent for a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Everyone’s experience in the Serengeti will be different. Some will see a kill. Others may see a stampede, or a display of dominance, or a cheetah running, or a lion cub playing. We saw a juvenile elephant discover three lions stalking him, and then turn the tables on them. But everyone will see something that few other people in the world have seen, and that’s what makes Serengeti so fascinating.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by mpotechin
Overall rating
3/5

Lake Manyara is an interesting location that is very different from what one expects in East Africa. The lake provides year-round water, which makes Lake Manyara green and lush, and this location is one of the best for monkeys and baboons. We found, however, that the game drive here was a bit lacking compared to the other three locations we visited. The lake is full of flamingos, but there are no roads passing nearby (at least there were not when we did our game drive), so all we saw was a pink haze in the distance. We also saw small numbers of elephants, lions, giraffes... but after being spoiled by the amount of wildlife in the other parks, we were a wee bit disappointed. It is interesting to see this location, due to its dissimilarity from the other parks, but if you want to save money by cutting a day from the safari, this is the one to skip.
