Stunning! A great place to get close to the wild!
Zimbabwe offered a great opportunity to get very close to wildlife. Most of all I was amazed by the huge numbers of wild elephants roaming very near my Jeep. this offered a wonderful chance to observe these majestic animals and take great photographs of them. Victoria falls are absolutely stunning!

Review about Okavango Delta by Linda Hoernke
The Delta is lush and green, linking lagoons, islands and inlets, grasslands and flooded plains in a puzzle of interchaging scenery. Trees give shade to animals surrounding pools of water. Such an amazing place to be enjoyed from the land and the air.

Review about Unique Tours & Safaris by Georg Treptow
Heike put an amazing trip together for us. She has travelled all the spots she recommended herself and was able to provide information to each location that would have been hard to find elsewhere.
Everything was planned perfectly, from the timing of the various lodges and campsites to the directions to the various sights.
We already booked travel with her again for 2012.

Review about Moremi Game Reserve by Linda Hoernke
This was my favorite park...I have never seen colors like this in the grass, trees and land before...something very spiritual about Moremi.

Review about Uganda by Dena
I am not really in to birding, but I did notice quite a few different types of birds and some interesting coloured birds and our guide, a Park Ranger was able to tell me about them; but as I said, as I am not a birder not I'm not sure if this what one would be looking for. Having said that, if you have an interest in birds, I would assume you have an interest in wildlife in general, so I think it is still a not to be missed destination.

Fabulous primate destination
Primates were great. Inches away from Mountain Gorillas and 20 feet from Chimps on a walking safari. The River Cruise on the Kazinga had amazing views of hippos, elephants, birds, etc.
Food was surprisingly good. Very uncrowded. Accommodations were very good. Queen Elizabeth safari not up to Serengeti or South Africa standards but still ok. Guide was great. There were two of us and a guide and Land Rover for a week. Rarely saw other tourists. The locals were colorful but not sure they really liked us being there, esp if we took photos of them.
All in all, not on the beaten path but the experience is one not to be missed.

Review about Kruger National Park by Jerome Parisse
Kruger is a fantastic destination. It is well developed, but still very wild, and the facilities are good. The national park itself is fascinating, but there are also private reserves which are well worth the visit. I would go back any time!

Review about Uganda by Ken
The park is a very appealing place. The wildlife is not quite as ubiquitous as in some of the Kenyan parks I've visited, but of course I was only in Murchison for a couple of days. The Nile River was certainly a highlight and unique -- a rare chance to view wildlife interacting with this iconic river.
Review about Kenya by LimeWave
Lots of chances to watch wildlife, not that many visitors and a varied landscape.
Review about Uganda by liesje
I liked the things we saw in Uganda, but Tanzania was better.
