Stunning
Our visit to Buffalo Springs NP.
In september 2011 we visited Buffalo Springs NP in Kenya.
We drove in an open Safari truck so we had a good sight at the different kind of animals that you normally only see in a zoo.
The nature is great and it is quiet because there're not so much tourists as in other NP's. The roads are unsealed but the trip was not too uncomfortable.
We saw a lot of animals but also a lot of birds and that's fine for a birdlover like me.
Highlights are the Lions and a Leopard with its kill in a tree.
We saw p.e.; Lions, Leopard, Gerenuks, Grant's Gazelles, Kirk's dik-dik's, Reticulated giraffes and Gemsboks.
We also saw a lot of birds, like; Yellow-necked spurfowl, White-headed Buffalo-weaver, White-browed Sparrow-weaver, Lilac-breasted roller, Rueppel's long-tailed starling and Brown snake-Eagle.
The Acacia trees and Doumpalms are beuatiful and you can visit a village of a very friendly Samburu tribe.
I'm glad that we have seen this NP and recommend it.

Review about Damaraland by reggief340
I spent five days in Damarland and was able to see much wildlife including the desert elephants and a pride of lions. The scenery was gorgeous and the camp I stayed in was excellent

Travelling alone I experienced the most wonderful experience on the senses in this Park.
For the past ten years I have travelled alone to some outstanding destinations and most where you would question if that was the right decision. Namibia opened up a huge new world that I had never experienced before. From the tarmac roads to dusty gravel roads that disappeared into the horizon; the route down to Namib Naukluft National Park was just a taster of the most wonderful sights.
I arose early before dawn and with haste headed of into the park to ensure that I was there to experience the sunrise. The sun rose to as a bright electric orange orb cresting over the dunes. Their dark shadows cast across the floor of the park whilst ostrich stirred shaking the sand from their wings and heading off to find more shade. The tourist balloons were up and in the stillness you could hear their chatter and the whoosh as the hot air filled the balloon and took them higher.
I drove further on and left the car in the designated area to be transported by 4 wheeled vehicles deeper to the bigger dunes and Sossusvlei.
Climbing along the ridge to the summit I was surprised how quiet and how few tourists were here but in the distance you could see more arriving. The sun by 10:00 was already high and burning the sand beneath my feet. To the left the parched trees and bushes were shade for more ostrich. To the right was the dried out water source, crusty and dusty underfoot with just a few soft patches where the sun didn't quite reach.
When I look back at my trip to Namibia this sticks very clearly in my mind. This truely is one of the wonders of Africa

Review about Namibia by reggief340
From the Etosha in the north to the dunes in the south and from the Kalahari in the east to the skeleton coast in the west I found this to be an amazing country with great friendly people and so many experiences
