    I spend the second time today in this park, the main roads are in good conditions, you find many spots with washrooms and place to take your lunchbox. You see a bunch of Monkeys, birds, zebras buffalo's, giraffes, sadly the second visit without spotting Elephants.

    It is a wonderful feeling to see animals and natural beauties that I have admired in documentaries for years up close and alive. I wish I could have gotten closer but it was not safe. I would have taken more pictures if I could, but my battery was dead.

    It was rainy season when I visited and absolutely loved the park. The wildlife here are very peaceful. Also learnt that the park neither has lions nor cheetahs, which leaves the rest of the animals here living carefree. Must be nice 🙂 Wildlife species to expect are giraffes, red dikers, buffalo, zebras, the blue monkey, velvet monkey, warthogs...among others.

    A very beautiful national park different to other TZ national parks in a good way. We did a walking safari. Simply took a dala dala to the road to the first gate, jumped on motorcycles and then at the gate arranged a car to drive us to the second gate (where you do the walking safari from). At the second gate they allocated a ranger for us which took us out for 4 hours in the national park. We saw giraffes, buffaloes, warthogs, many different monkeys and loads of cool birds. It is expensive, but cheaper than having hired a tour company to arrange it for you.

    Beautiful little park for a unique safari! Best giraffe encounter! One of the best safaris for monkeys and birds. No predators here :) Go with Albert from Winnie’s Adventure! He is the best!
