Easy to reach and to visit, affordable, interesting
I did not expect plenty of wildlife, being a small park surrounded by civilization; however the variety and the amount of game viewing surprised me. We just missed big cats, but the kind of vegetation does not help easy spots; we could see several interesting mammals, including black rhinos. Birding is really worthy, as the quantity and variety of birds is impressive. Access is easy, roads are well maintained and such that even if the park is crowded, you seldom have to share space with other visitor's cars if an interesting spot is made

Review about Augrabies Falls National Park by Stefano
It is not a park for wildlife, but for the falls; these are very nice and worth the visit
Accomodation is very good

Review about Golden Gate Highlands National Park by Stefano
A mountain park to be visited for the scenary and for hiking; these are gorgeous and absolutely an experience to be done. It is not a bush experience but for sure a full immersion in another kind of nature, majestic and overwhelming

Review about Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Game Reserve by Stefano
Very nice park with plenty of wildlife, rhinos in particular. As there are not so many roads, and vegetation is often thick, spotting animals is not so easy, but this increase the taste for searching and tracking.

Review about Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park by Stefano
Less crowded than other parks, as it is not so easily accessible; so you feel more frequently in the bush than in other places. Landscapes are particular as it is a semi desertic dry savana; wildlife is abundant but road network is limited

Review about Kruger National Park by Stefano
Huge and majestic, with a variety of landscapes and vegetation and abundant wildlife. A very popular destination, so you are seldom alone close to dams, wells or open savana. It is better where vegetation is thicker, or in the less accessible north section, but the chance of spotting animals is limited. Accomodations are for all sakes and pockets

Review about Madikwe Game Reserve by Stefano
A surprising and very well managed park; abundance of wildlife and predators, and also a place for birdwatchers. Bush experience is granted, and some accomodation are really 'in the bush'

Review about Marakele National Park by Stefano
The mountain section is spectacular for its scenic beauty; the plains section is less interesting as wildlife is hidden in the thick vegetation, so spotting animals is not easy. Road network is limited so it is often crowded
Out of this world experience
Choosing the best park in Africa is like choosing your favorite child! But if one were to choose one park it would be the Serengeti. One thing you will notice as soon as you enter the park is the sheer vastness of the park. When we visited this park in Nov 2014, we got an opportunity to see the big cats. In our three day stay at the park we saw several Cheetahs going on hunt. One with 3 new born cubs. If you do go ask your guide to take to southern Serengeti if you have time as it has far less Jeeps. All the facilities within the park we found were world class.
My favorite park
Tarangire was my favorite park in Tanzania. We were surrounded by elephants, got close to monkeys and saw most of the big 5. The only thing we didn't see was the rhino, and that was seen at Ngorongoro, one of the only parks left where they exist due to poaching. The Tarangire Safari Lodge had the best view of the park. I will definitely go back someday.
