Review of Mikumi and Nyerere National Park Safari

Our recent safari to Mikumi and Nyerere National Parks was an unforgettable adventure! Mikumi, often called the "Serengeti in miniature," impressed us with its vast savannahs and abundant wildlife—we spotted lions, elephants, zebras, and giraffes up close. The Mkata Floodplain was especially breathtaking at sunset.

Nyerere National Park (formerly Selous), one of Africa’s largest protected areas, offered a more remote and wild experience. The boat safari along the Rufiji River was a highlight, with hippos, crocodiles, and countless birds surrounding us. The park’s untouched landscapes and fewer tourists made it feel like a true wilderness escape.

Both parks provided excellent game viewing, but Nyerere’s sheer size and diversity stood out. The lodges were comfortable, and our guides were knowledgeable. Highly recommend this dual-park safari for an incredible Tanzanian wildlife experience!

A 7-day romantic getaway to Zanzibar is an absolute dream for us. From the moment we arrived, the island's charm captivated us. We spent our days relaxing on pristine white-sand beaches, with the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean inviting us for a refreshing swim or snorkel. Evenings were magical, filled with breathtaking sunsets over the ocean, often enjoyed with a refreshing cocktail. We indulged in delicious local seafood, explored the fascinating history of Stone Town's narrow alleys, and even took a spice tour, immersing ourselves in the island's rich culture. The serene atmosphere, combined with the stunning natural beauty and warm hospitality, made this trip truly unforgettable. It's the perfect destination for couples seeking a blend of relaxation, adventure, and romance. We're already dreaming of our next visit, Thank you Makala Travels for making our dreams come true.

Мое путешествие по Танзании, Кении и Уганде длилось 25 дней, и это было незабываемое приключение! Эти три страны предлагают уникальное сочетание потрясающих природных ландшафтов, богатой культуры и удивительного дикой природы.

В Танзании я посетила знаменитый национальный парк Серенгети и кратер Нгоронгоро, где увидела множество диких животных в их естественной среде обитания. Восхождение на гору Килиманджаро стало настоящим испытанием, но виды на вершине того стоили.

Кения поразила меня своими бескрайними саваннами и великолепными заповедниками. Я провела несколько дней в Масаи-Мара, наблюдая за миграцией животных — это было зрелище, которое невозможно забыть. Кроме того, местная культура и традиции народа масаи оставили глубокий след в моем сердце.

Уганда была настоящим открытием. Я встретила горилл в их естественной среде обитания в национальном парке Бвинди. Это было одно из самых трогательных переживаний в моей жизни. Кроме того, я наслаждалась красотой озера Виктория и гостеприимством местных жителей.

В целом, это путешествие стало для меня не только возможностью увидеть удивительные места, но и узнать больше о культуре и жизни людей в этих странах. Я рекомендую всем, кто ищет приключения и новые впечатления, отправиться в этот регион Африки!

Une Expérience Diversifiée
Nous avons passé 8 jours à Zanzibar, dont trois jours de safari dans le parc national de Mikumi. Le safari était sans aucun doute le point fort de notre voyage. Nous avons eu la chance d'observer beaucoup d'animaux dans leur habitat naturel, ce qui était incroyable.

Cependant, la partie à Zanzibar avait ses points positifs et négatifs. Les plages étaient magnifiques, mais certaines attractions étaient trop touristiques à mon goût. Stone Town avait son charme, mais c'était souvent bondé, ce qui rendait difficile l'appréciation de son ambiance unique. En outre, nous avons rencontré quelques problèmes d'organisation avec notre hébergement.

Dans l'ensemble, bien que le safari ait été exceptionnel et que Zanzibar soit belle, il y a des aspects à améliorer en termes d'organisation et d'authenticité. Cela dit, c'était une expérience enrichissante que je recommande à ceux qui cherchent un mélange d'aventure et de détente
