Amazing experience during rain season
I had an amazing time during my safari. I read april is not a good time to go, but I would definitely recommend going around this time! Everything was very green and beautiful, this makes it slightly harder to spot animals, but I have seen a lot (complete big 5!). And during this time there are not as much tourists, we watched many animals which were very close with only three other cars (our guide told us this can be around 100 during high season). Amazing experience!!
HOWEVER be aware that during low season it is hard to get full groups, meaning that the organisation can be a bit chaotic. I was with a group of 7 in total, some went on safari for 2 nights, 3 nights and 4 nights and one person booked a more high end trip and had different accomodation. This also confused our guide quite a bit, he was not always aware of our schedule. Organisation and communication about change in plans could be improved. The order of parks was different and I also stayed in different accomodation (I only camped one night instead of 4 which was nice), this is no problem but it would be nice to receive an updated schedule in advance.

Many impressions with the Big Five and more.
Price-performance was great!
Everything was very well organized. In two days in Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro Crater I was able to see the Big Five and more. The leopard first thing in the morning and the large herds of elephants fascinated me the most. The Ngorongoro Crater was gorgeous! The accommodation was also great, the food was delicious and everyone was very friendly.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Angela Metcalfe
There were not as many animals as I hoped, but sometimes that’s how it goes.

Same as Amboseli. There were not as many animals as I hoped, but sometimes that’s how it goes.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Noor
Not very exciting after visiting other parks, there are not many animals to spot. The water was very high so many roads were not accessible.

Review about Ngorongoro Crater by Noor
Amazing place to spot animals and beautifull surroundings, also during rainy season. However, I can imagine that during high season it is very busy with cars since it is a small area.

Review about Serengeti National Park by Noor
Very special how much space there is! I really felt like entering the animal kingdom. landscape can be a bit boring, but you can look very far. Amazing to see the big groups of zebra's and wildebeasts.
