amazing memorable 10 day safari
5/5

While in Zimbabwe on holidays we gave Daniel at trans trek 2 days to organise a 10 day safari in Kenya for us. Trans trek looked after us from the moment we landed in nairobi til we left. Accommodation, vehicle, itinerary were all customised to suit our needs for close encounters with african wildlife. Peter our guide was very informative about the wildlife, a safe driver, and made our trip a very pleasant experience. The accommodation Daniel selected was top notch. Kilaguni serena lodge in tsavo west national park was really special with its waterhole constantly visited by the animals. An ever changing view for us to watch and photograph! We have very fond memories of Kenya.

Thakadu Camp, warm friendly staff, excellent food, outstanding bush experience, will stay here again
Overall rating
5/5

We stayed at the Thakadu River camp. Warm and friendly staff, personalised service, the food was tasty not too heavy, just right. The guide was excellent took us off road closer to the wildlife, always maintaining a safe distance, good bush sense. The entire staff broke out in a song and dance in harmony, to celebrate a friend celebrating his birthday during our stay. Overall credit goes to the resident manager.

Not too bad. But average when compared with Serengeti and Ngorungoru.

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

Thick vegetation makes it hard to see wildlife well. Only a few areas where lots of wild life can be seen.

Vast and never ending beauty

5/5

Scenery and weather was brilliant when I was there. It was the start of the rainy season, thus the wildlife concentration was slightly less than it will be during other parts of the year. However the variety of wildlife made up for it.

live experiment
Overall rating
5/5

it was a live experiment to see this animals in the wild and so near bij.
het was een ervaring om deze dieren van zo dichtbij te zien, het is niet makkelijk om dit om te zetten in het engels, het maakt nog elke dag als ik er aan denk wat in mij los.

The most amazing experience of my life
Overall rating
5/5

Everything was perfect. The weather was wonderful, the accommodations excellent, the staff so accommodating and friendly. The tracker and driver were relaxed, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable leading us to see animals I'd never even realized were out there as well as all the big ones. The pool and spa were great, can't say enough good things about the experience

A magical place where dreams can come true
Overall rating
5/5

Kruger National Park is wonderful for the first time safari goers. Anybody wanting to see the wildlife up close and personal , then Kruger is the place to be.
My first ever safari was in the Kruger National Park. It pays to find a good company to book with , I did my homework and found a wonderful SA based company(Wild Wings Safaris) who went beyond my expectations. It also pays to have a good guide. I believe that I had one of the best. (Simon Vegter)
The Kruger is a place where you can enjoy the luxury of 5 star accommodation or sleep in a tent under the stars. It has everything to suit each of us. The wildlife throughout the park is amazing , the scenery is wonderful , it has a range of different accommodations and places to eat ranging from restaurants to cooking your own meals in the communial kitchens or private Braai (bbq). Most of the camps have a small grocery store and restaurant.
I have self driven in the Park on a few occasions and from what I have learn't and put into practice from my guide , I have always felt safe.
You do not need a four wheel drive to get around , a standard car would do the trick. There are petrol stations at most camps and tarred roads throughout the park.
Having visited other parks since the Kruger , the only negative I can see is , The kruger park is very commercialised now , and many tourists fight for the best spots at a sighting. If you are after seclusion and wilderness that is still very wild , then parts of the kruger would not be for you.
My highlight of my trip would be spending time with the African Wild Dogs.

A Must-See in Tanzania
Overall rating
5/5

Ngorongoro Crater was absolutely stunning. The physical nature of the crater itself makes you feel like you are truly entering a different ecosystem - one that belongs to the animals, not to man. We saw many types of animals, including hyenas, water buffalo, elephants, giraffes, birds, and lions! The scenery was gorgeous and the animals all seemed so majestic. I would suggest Ngorongoro Crater to anyone who is traveling in Tanzania.
