Overall, a very good experience!
Tanzania between 17 Sep 2011 and 28 Sep 2011
We met a number of tourists during the trip and they all said that the most memorable parks were the Serengeti and the Masa Mara. Bottom line, I believe there is where our trip should have focused on as first time visitors to Africa.
The Serengeti was the highlight of our trip."

Rivertrees Country Inn
"Very nice and relaxing - beautiful setting"

Oliver's Camp
"Great experience!"
There is a lot to be said about the infrastructure of a permanent camp versus a mobile camp. The tent was more than we expected and the view was great.
The staff attended to your every need and the food was excellent."

Oliver's Fly-Camp, Tanzania (this camp has since closed)
"Good experienceOliver's Fly-Camp review"
The walks were great and we learned and experienced a lot. Our guide was very informative. The location had a great view."

Oliver's Camp
"Great to come back to after fly camping"
Overall, four days and nights in the Tarangire was too long. Three days and three nights with one night of fly camping is sufficient."

Lemala Ngorongoro
"I would not recommend this camp"
Ngorongoro is interesting geologically, but not at this time of the year. It was a dust bowl with too much traffic. It simply was not that enjoyable.
Overall, we were not impressed by Lemala Camps.
Lake Manyara could have been avoided all together. It was not worth the day trip to see. Bottom line, it was a rain forest and a hippo pool."

Olakira
"What an experience! Absolutely unforgettable"
The location was excellent, and our view of the Mara River from our tent was memorable. The tents exceeded our expectations, the staff was attentive and gracious and the food was very good. Pascal was an excellent host and helped make our experience at Olakira Camp truly memorable. We especially liked the change in the way we took our safaris. One in the morning, return to camp for lunch and rest, and then one in the afternoon made a pleasurable day for us.
The Serengeti is truly the park to visit. We could have skipped the other parks and spent our time in the Serengeti. After seeing the Serengeti, I wonder why we even visited the other parks."
The open air dining room was very nice and the food was very good. We wished that we could have made the connection in Nairobi on time and stayed at Rivertrees on the way in."
