Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by Tarik Cicic
Nakuru is more a park than bush. Incredibly beautiful though.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Tarik Cicic
I'm not a birder but this must be the birder's paradise. I must have identified 40 species in one day.

Lovely culture, lovely people, lovely country!
July is winter in South Africa, but the days were absolutely beautiful, and the cooler nights were crisp and calming. We were only in Johannesburg and Pretoria, and I would love to go back to see the rest of South Africa! I cannot recommend Safari Bookings website enough - they had great communication and made sure we were connecting with the tour offices we had booked. I also cannot recommend MMilo Tours enough! We had a pleasant 2.5 hour ride to our destination with the best driver who went out of his way to find us a Starbucks so we could take home a mug! Our tour turned out to be so much more than we expected. Beautiful experience seeing all the wildlife with a most knowledgeable and helpful tour guide. Fantastic trip! I hope I get to visit South Africa again!

After weeks of finishing the tour, at night my dreams continue to take me to Kenya

Beautiful and diverse national parks
We visited five national parks, all very different from each other and beautiful in their own ways. Masai Mara is a must with most impressive and accessible large fauna. Lake Nakuru for rhinos and incredibly beautiful yellow acacia forest. Lake Amboseli for the perfect picture of wildlife under Mt. Kilimanjaro. Tsavo West for mountainous scenery and the water hole in front of the Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge. And finally Tsavo West, for the sheer feeling of true wild space.
It was cold in Kenya in August! The temperature dropped under 10 degrees centigrade some mornings. We ended the trip at Diani beach near Mombasa, where it was raining less or more hard three out of four days. According to the locals, it has been raining there in August the last three years, although long-time statistics depict August as a dry month. We absolutely enjoyed Diani beach anyway.

BEST SAFARI CREW!
I cannot say enough about the group. There are a lot of review on safari bookings, but to the extent you read this one, this safari group is the best one out there. The driver took time to answer all our questions and take us to all the right spots. The contact person quickly responded to all our requests and took care of EVERYTHING for us, even traveling to and from places. The cook was great. Overall, I could not ask for a better experience.

Great Family Safari
The people in Tanzania are so welcoming and the country still feels authentic. We visited several parks. Tarangire Was our first and was really an amazing start. Smaller, but we still saw lots of big game, including lion.
Lake Manyara was also a nice park, the accommodation around the lake was beautiful with wildlife roaming around the camp. Serengeti was truly breathtaking, so vast and so many animals. A fair number of safari trucks, but it only felt crowded a few times when we stopped for a cheater or lions.
It was cool some mornings and we noted it was cooler at altitude. But by 0900 each day it was always pleasant, not too hot either.
We also visited Zanzibar. Stone town is a great place to visit. A day or two is all you need here I’d say. We then hit the beaches which were beautiful. We were disappointed that plastic waste did wash up on the beach most days. The hotel were great about picking it up each day, but it did come in on the tides.

Everything we ever dreamed of experiencing on Safari
We had an amazing experience in Tanzania in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. Our primary goal was to witness the great wildebeest herd migration, and we experienced that close up, but so much more. Everyday in Serengeti we saw lions, chetah, and leopards, plus other incredible sightings. Our driver with Best Days Safaris was knowledgeable, and worked long, hard hours to show us everything we hoped for on safari. Best Days Safari organized the entire trip and really did an excellent job of filling each day with adventure and choosing great accommodations. The Serengeti was so diverse with its landscapes and habitats. The highlight day began with watching hundreds of thousands of wildebeest migrate towards Kenya, and then after patiently watching the herd movement, experiencing tens of thousands of wildebeest stampede to the Mara River and cross to the other side while several crocodiles waited on banks in the river, but chose not to attack. We followed that experience with an up close viewing of several male and female lions in some beautiful grasslands. The camps where we stayed were all excellent and very hospitable. Every day in the bush is an opportunity to see something that you have never seen before and Tanzania did not disappoint. We began the trip with three-days in Zanzibar followed by our 5-days in Serengeti/Ngorongoro Crater. Tanzania has all the adventure anyone would desire.
