This park should not be missed. It was the first stop on our safari and we saw so many birds and animals right away! There is a huge elephant population that are often close to the road. We saw a …Full review by sabgkids

Hi from Dallas, TX. My family is going here in a couple of weeks. Were the tse tse flies really bad? What about mosquitoes? Glad you had a great time!

No, as a matter of fact I saw very few. I wasn’t bothered at all, even without bug spray. But my travel agent suggested using a citronella oil blend to keep away flies. The regular bug spray works well against everything but flies! Hope you have a fantastic trip. Mine was amazing!
My wife and I are planning our trip and were curious. If after seeing the Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Lake Manyara, would you choose Tarangire or Amboseli if you could only do one. Why? Thank you.

That's difficult to answer. I would choose Tarangire. We saw more animals in Tarangire than Amboseli. Amboseli was very dry and the water holes/lakes are slowly drying up. Our …
That's difficult to answer. I would choose Tarangire. We saw more animals in Tarangire than Amboseli. Amboseli was very dry and the water holes/lakes are slowly drying up. Our driver stayed close to the main water source and we didn't see the same variety of animals. Tarangire is more scenic especially if you drive into the interior of the park. Varied topography, lots of elephants, some lions etc. BTW we didn't see many animals in Ngorongoro crater. Again, very dry, the 2 lions we saw looked starved (ribs & hip bones showing clearly) and the rhinos were hiding in the foothills .where the ranger specified roads don't go. Serengeti was amazing thought. Have a great time.
Hi, umakantamin. What would you like to know about this attraction? This NP is known for elephants, did you see the big cats lion, leopard and cheetah. Plan for 2 days here, 2 days at Ngorongoro and 1 day at lake Manyara in December 3rd week.
A:
Thanks, we have planned 1 whole day in Tarangire NP, 1 day in Ngorongoro NP, 2 days in Central Serengeti and 2 days in South Serengeti around Lake Ndutu.
Would like to hear recommendations for tour companies. Would like to combine this and a couple other parks in a tour. Interested in hearing experiences with securely paying for/reserving the tour. thanks!
