Red bushy Tsavo
Overall rating
4/5

Along with the eastern portion the Tsavo National Park is around 20,000 square kilometers, dwarfing the more popular Masai Mara which is 1,510 square kilometers. Although Tsavo is a large park its vegetation may make game spotting a lot more difficult, and thus the popularity of Masai Mara. But Tsavo with its red soil, blue skies and black lava flows offers a unique beauty of its own. Even the animals are coloured red because of the soil! The Mzima spring was a first for me and it was intriguing to see water just appearing from the ground, and quite a bit of it! The water was so pure that we could drink straight from the spring!

If you have some luck on your side Tsavo can be a great place. It's sheer size means there is enough wildlife in the park, but you may have to be patient and spend more time here. Unlike animals, birds are a lot easier to spot and if you are into birding you will certainly not be disappointed.

One more interesting feature of the park is the "Shetani" lava flow. It was surreal to see the landscape suddenly change to dark black. In fact you can see the border between the red soil and the black soil from past volcanic eruptions clearly in certain spots.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Vinay
Overall rating
4/5

Being a smaller park it does not have much of a bush vibe but offers plenty in term of wildlie, birds and scenic beauty. Kilimanjaro stands tall on clear mornings. Good place for birding enthusiasts, the marsh offers opportunity to spot storks and water birds.

Review about Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park by Grey World Nomads
Overall rating
4/5

Kgalagadi is a unique destination, a game park in a arid region. The wildlife is spectacular, albight the absence of elephants, crocodiles and hippos. Therefore there are stunning sightings of cats. The road infrastructure is fair and the camps have everything you need - from accommodation to food.

Amazing wildlife and beautiful stay
Overall rating
4/5

From the dawn to the dusk, it is always possible and easy to see wildlife. Everyday something happens, everyday is a new day in the bush. The great thing of madikwe is that rangers and land rover could go "off road" to approach wildlife ! So great for pictures and feel bush vibes !

Review about Namibia by Carmen

4/5

Namibia probably has a lot to offer in the way of wildlife in other parts of the country, but Namib-Naukluft National Park seems to be mostly about stunning scenery and sand dunes.

First time not in a private concession
Overall rating
4/5

Abundant wildlife sometimes not as close as you would like. Due to the rules of staying on the road, it was luck of the draw if the animals came close. We did see lots of black rhino, wildebeast, zebray, giraffe, elephants and hippos, few lions in the distance and solitary hyenas. Lots of birds byr could not get close to the flocks of flamingos . It became crowded with tourists as the day progressed with the best sightings early in the morning. We were lucky in that we stayed on the crater rim close to the entrance to the crater floor. the lodge was great.

Hell's Gate trip
4/5

Trip was almost perfect. Mike (manager, I suppose) respond quickly at all time (pre-booking, appointment, etc.) and follow any my demands. Paul (driver) made his best during trip - comfort and safe driving, detailed explanation through whole journey. But I have one disappointed thing - in itinerary written what boat ride is inclusive - that is incorrect, they charge USD50 for this option.

A solid budget experience
4/5

We spent 3 days and 2 nights in Masai Mara, including travel from Nairobi. If seeing the animals is your priority, this tour had everything, although we thought being the rainy season would limit what we could see. During the second day with all day game driving we had 5 encounters with lions, really close - we could almost touch them from the bus. We also spotted all of the other Big Fives, except the rhino. Comfortable travelling and game viewing with only 4 passengers in the bus. Be aware though that accomodation in tents and all the meals are the budget variety, but enough. Jacob, our driver/guide brought us back and fortht and around the national park safely and had good knowledge of the park and the animals.
