Review about |Ai-|Ais Richtersveld Transfrontier Park by engeltoy
Again the very natural beauty abounds. Man has not destroyed what nature has created.
Food for your Soul
October in the Kruger is a magical time as many of the antelope are foaling, so there is lots of new life abounding. The first of the seasonal rains have fallen so the park is turning green but the bush is not too dense yet, so making game viewing still easy. ( the thicker the bush the more difficult it is to spot the game.
The magic of Kruger is the natural beauty, there small dirt tracks that take you into the quieter areas, where you can just switch off your vehicle and sit and listen to the sounds of silence. Animals roam freely so you may encounter any species at any time. Early mornings and later afternoons are the best times to get out there to see the animals. So make sure you are up at the crack of dawn and out till last light. Relax in the Chalet during the heat of the day. Sanparks provides comfortable accommodation without damaging the feel and look of nature. The most important thing is to slow down and move with the beat of the bush.

Review about Lake Mburo National Park by Erika
Lake Mburo wasn't as beautiful as other parts of Uganda but we had just come from "the Lakes" area of the country so we had a rather skewed view. Lake Mburo has a lot of zebras and antelope, which were fun to see. It's a good stopover between Bwindi and Kampala, but probably not someplace I would go out of my way to see.

Review about South Africa by engeltoy
Nature and the beauty of the country is very important to all who live there. Getting away from the cities and into the bush is the best way to experience the true beauty of Africa

Highly recommend Uganda!
I spent 10 days in Uganda on a safari with Destination Jungle. It was epic! We saw so many animals and birds and the country itself is gorgeous. We visited Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth Park, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Lake Mburo. The accommodations were excellent, the food (especially the soups) was delicious and I loved how few other tourists were around. Our guide, Charles, was first class. He knew the names of all the animals and the birds and he has a great eye for spotting wildlife. We saw 8 lions including four sleeping in a fig tree, three male lions hunting and a lioness who crossed in front of our Land Cruiser! We also saw a leopard (albeit some distance away), hyenas, warthogs, several different species of primates, including chimpanzees and gorillas and many many birds. The chimps and gorillas were absolutely incredible. We had an hour with each of them and it was wonderful to have so much time to watch them. One caveat- the roads are pretty terrible in parts of the country but they're doing constructions to fix them. We went at the beginning of the rainy season and really didn't have any major issues. We had one day of rain but it didn't hamper our plans. Most days we just had 30 minutes or so of downpour and then it cleared up. What an experience! I highly recommend Uganda and Destination Jungle!
