Review about Golden Gate Highlands National Park by tapaculo99
The scenery here was stunning - amazing geology and hiking.
Wildlife was not terribly plentiful, but we did see a few wildebeest, jackal, and zebra.
Bush vibe - not such a nice park in this regard, since a major road passes through the park.
Birding was nice but not particularly exceptional.

Very nice, but unfortunate timing due to construction
We stayed at uMkhuze for two nights in the end of July 2016. We stayed at Mantuma Camp, which was very nice; the rooms were clean and comfortable. We had a small difficultly with the hot water but the staff were very helpful.
In the morning we drove out to KuMasinga hide, and spent a lot of time at the waterhole there. Wildlife was plentiful - lots of Nyala, Wildebeest, and a single White Rhino. We also saw lots of neat birds in the sand forest, including some of the specialties of the area. We also visited the KuMahlahla hide, which had some more birds and baboons.
Unfortunately, at the time we were there most of the roads in the park were closed for maintenance, so we could only visit a small part of the reserve. This was disappointing, since it meant we couldn't see some of the birds we'd hoped for... however, it probably won't be an issue for much longer.

Beautiful scenery park with easy to find wildlife
Augrabies Falls National Park is a beautiful smaller park with fantastic scenery around the falls and the gorge. There is a lot of wildlife which is pretty easy to find and can be seen and photographed at close distance. Game such as giraffe, zebra, springbok, kudu, oryx, baboon, monkey can be found.
The accommodation in the park is good with comfortable cabins and a nice restaurant and shop. The weather in the winter time is good with nice temperatures without extreme heat. In the winter time not a lot of tourists are in the park creating some additional bush vibe
The night game drive is fun with some challenge to find animals, but is rewarding if nocturnal animals turn up under an amazing starry sky.

Well organized with a personal touch
We booked our two week safari and beach tour oof Kenya, Tanzania and Zanzibar with Africa Mc. Flash. We had a fair idea of what we wanted to do, so we sent our outline to Peter and he did the rest. Everything was handled very professionally, our safari drivers were great, the choice of hotels were perfect and we got to do what we had planned for our tour. Despite short time, we saw all of the animals that anyone could want to see on safari, and we had a great relax in two different resorts on Zanzibar. I would recommend Africa Mc. Flash to anyone, although not as slick as some of the bigger operators, we got the presonal touch, which was much appreciated. All in all, top grade!

Review about Serengeti National Park by Xavier
Same as Ngorongoro Crater it is a must see, but way to crowded, do not visit it during August as it is peak season and you have safari vehicles all over the places!
