Amazing beauty of dunes and desert
Namib Naukluft National Park is a beautiful park, but not a your typical safari destination. You won't see much game, nor will you see many birds. You will see a lot of sand, but it's beautiful. The patterns in the sand, the variations in colors of the dunes (older dunes are darker then younger dunes).
Visit Sossusvlei, Dead vlei and climb the popular Dune 45, the most photographed dune. Dunes can be as high as 300 meters.
I flew with a small plane from Dessert Air over Namib Naukluft national park and saw the endless desert, the fairy circles en de red dunes from above. A day i won't forget, ever.

Review about Arusha National Park by Gaston Maqueda
The pouching is a big problem in Arusha National Park and that is the reason why the wildlife is quite shy there
TANAPA need to invest more in the conservation of that beautifull jungle landscape

Not the best
We were told we had booked a particular accommodation, on the evening before our safari when we met them in Dar Es Salaam we were told we will be staying somewhere else as we were on the reservation list and the place was fully booked. We would never have booked if that was the case this, it was never explained in any email communications prior to booking. When we arrived at the accommodation is was way way below the standard we had booked for, aircon not working, broken windows, shower not working very well, need I go on! MAKE SURE YOU ARE GUARANTEED THE PLACE YOU WANT AND NOT TOLD YOU ARE ON A WAITING LIST!!!

Dissapointing
The experience in Kruger Park was ok but not how we expected, we didnt saw too many animals. We think that our guide wasnt good, he drive for the same part of the park most of the time, we spend our without seeing animals.
We didnt saw any cheetas, leopards and Rhinos. The thing is that most of the time you can see them there, so we think that our guide wasnt good. We’ve been in Tanzania but there is another thing, we really enjoy there, the parks, the tour guide and we saw a lot of animals.
We noticed that many people that pay a lot in the private reserve they has more chances to see animals and different species, I dont know if that a point to consider because they own a lot of animals , and the know exactlu where they are, but is very expensive too. Or maybe the option to drive by yourself could bebetter because you can go everywhere..
Also the communication during the tour with the agency wasnt good (Shinzelle Safaris).
We regret to add Kruger Park in our trip to Africa, that money could worth it, in another place, because we visited Tanzania and Uganda and everything there was amazing.

Review about Moremi Game Reserve by C H
We stayed in Sango and were disappointed overall. game drives with the exception of the first morning were very long and not much wildlife. Guide was not very interested. Overall we would have skipped this one.

Review about Queen Elizabeth National Park by Callan
Wow, this place was not as expected. A lot less animals than expected and while the boat trip was a different way to do a safari in africa, the commentary while on the boat was a real disappointment.

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.
