We were so excited about seeing the Masai Mara but the size was amazing (had seen it on t.v.)It just went for ever & so many species all in close contact, never did we imagine the thousands of Zebra, Wildebeest & Antelope species grazing together. The day we saw the Pride of Lions, Well that was the greatest, From the mature ones to the tiny cubs( no more than 3 weeks old) then as we followed them through the grass lands to a kill site where the female carried her Warthog between the vehicles, the Vultures & 2 Hienas arrived very soon afterwards.The weather was very similar to Australia & we enjoyed the cool mornings. We loved the Lodge, the building its self was ideal open & cool & beautifully designed for the climate. The setting beside the river was perfect , not only from the Dining room but from our accommodation with the balcony out the back over looking the river with crocodiles, Very large & small, monitor lizards, monkeys playing in the trees., a
Read more Hippo once ,Baboons storks & the mongoose in the under growth,( PERFECT). Shimba our guide was so good, he didn't mind us asking questions, could explain every thing we ask, & set up a lovely table in a place with a great view for our picnic the day we went to the Mara River to see the Animals crossing.Thank you Shimba. & Thanks to to the Folk in the Kitchen & the Waiters & waitress who served us delightful meals.

Great national park. Very clean with professional staff and wonderful wildlife. The restaurant was first class and the bar prices reasonable. Would have liked an overnight stay in the lodge. First Class

Personally, I found the bush drives a little tame. The river cruises were better.

The main reason is the famous one: there are more elephants here than anywhere in the world and you can see hundreds perhaps thousands at the same time. We saw a few of everything else too. our cook did good food, very private spaces to camp, and our guide was the best.

Birders should absolutely do a boat cruise, it's a great way to see the water birds up close. Also a different perspective than the jeep so seeing the hippos, elephants, etc. from a different angle is great. We had incredible sunsets in Chobe as well, with sweeping landscapes. It was really breathtaking.

We did a cruise river that was great but we self drive in the Chobe park near the river and it was fantastic. Saw a lot of animals.
