"The best part of the trip. Loved the location and Ernst our guide was great.
Some wonderful walking but again the animals were very shy and most were observed only from a great distance.
However on one night drive my husband saw two mating lions."

"As we were there only one night it suited our requirements.
Tanzania does not make entry and exit easy and what an awful airport . i thought it might have improved since we were last there but it hasn't."

Unfortunately the animals were not very cooperative - everybody else saw lots of game we were just unlucky although we did see a leopard, spotted by Casey.
Unfortunately no walking as there was no scout available"
