Paradise on Earth
Myself and wife did a self drive in Chobe National Park beginning of May 2018. Oh my god! I've never experienced anything like it. We saw so many beautiful animals and it felt untouched.
The highlight was getting stuck between a hunting back of 16 lionesses on a little dusty road as the sun was starting to set. We had 8 in front and 8 behind walking in complete silence with a our truck in the middle - they were not bothered by us in the slightest. We were physically shaking with adrenaline after the experience but it made us appreciate the beauty and power of these animals. 10 minutes before the lionesses turned up we got stuck by a big elephant who carefully guarded the road as his family crossed to reach the river. The very last was a tiny baby elephant who wrapped his trunk around the big elephants tail and they went into the river together - you couldn't wish for such an experience!
All I will say is this - if going on a self drive safari learn about the animals before you get there. Its not dangerous at all if you know the basic signs to look out for. I have a dozen of other stories from this one trip but wont bore you with them!
The people of Botswana are some of the friendliest in the world - they always seem to be smiling which is more than I can say for folk in UK. My only complaint is the holiday was too good. Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, Chobe safari, whale shark diving in Mozambique. We met other couples that have been to Africa 10 years in a row - they cant find another holiday that comes close and I see why!

Great adventure treking for gorillas in Bwindi.
I loved my moments with the Gorillas in Rushaga sector of Bwindi Impenetrable national park. I saw babies play-swinging on tree branches while their mothers were feeding. For the first time I saw a very huge silverback walk up to us closely that we all had to stand and not act scared of course giving it its pathway. This experience was so golden that I would recommend it to all travelers coming to Uganda. And I love that fact that part of the fees paid for this activity goes towards conservation of these Apes and thanks to this the Gorilla population is increasing. Also Thanking to Frena Adventures fot this amazing tour...!!!

Unforgettable moments
We booked our 3 days safari through Mizzou Africa Safaris. We had a very professional guide at all times, arriving when we agreed even though we were often quite late and he was always being ready to answer complex or repetitive questions.

Unforgettable experience
During the last part of our volunteering trip in Arusha, we planned to do a wildlife safari before returning home. We did a lot of research and settled on Gilmag Safaris due to all the positive reviews and recommendations. We made a phone call and physically went to their office to book the safari. The staff were welcoming, friendly and professional. We were taken through different carefully customized itineraries to choose from. With the assistance of a very able tour consultant (Priscilla) we settled on a 6 day safari. Priscilla recommended Kessy as our lead tour guide.
The safari itself was simply amazing. We saw lions, cheetahs, hippos, elephants and every other kind of big and small creature in Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater; unforgettable experiences! We stayed at Marera Valley Lodge, Serengeti Serena and Tanzania Bush Camp. All were very comfortable, in excellent locations and with great food! Our guide Kessy was great too - extremely knowledgeable and very flexible in terms of helping us get the most out of our experience and try to see the wildlife we were most interested in.
I would like to thank Gilmag Safaris for putting together the trip of a lifetime and highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a tour operator in Tanzania.
