I have heard about Kenya being awesome, but this was from a family member. I don't know anyone that's been outside that area though, so it's hard to take that as advice. Also... I can't help but post: Where can you see lions?

South Africa is a great place to visit if you want a good African safari! You have so many different options to choose from!

The World famous Kruger National Park, one of the largest free range National Parks with its plethora of wild animals including the Big Five (Lions, Leopards, Hippo , Rhino & Buffalo). If you want to do something different at this National Park, you can join on a bicycle safari which allows you to travel with your game rangers (in a maximum group of 6) and see the wild animals up close! It is an awesome experience!

South Africa’s oldest National park, the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi National Park in KwaZulu Natal which has the Big Five and is on the border the world heritage site Great St Lucia Wetlands – which combined make a great Africa holiday experience! At Imfolozi you are able to go Rhino tracking with your rangers which is another great experience.

The Eastern Cape and Addo Elephant National Park with its large population of wild African Elephants is a wonderful place to explore. At this Eastern Cape game park you will experience an unrivalled natural diversity, boasting 5 of South Africa's seven major vegetation biomes. Addo is also home to the 'Big 7', namely Elephant, Rhino, Lion, Buffalo, Leopard, Whale and the Great White Shark. This region is also Malaria free!

At all of the National Parks you have accommodation ranging from budget to luxury so the choice is up to you on how much you want to spend. If you can splash out a bit, a private game reserve for a few nights is a fantastic experience!

Enjoy your safari!

Well, there are many wild life safaris all over the world. In my point of view Tanzanian safari is the most prominent. My friend visited there last year and they enjoyed over there I also recommend to visit there.

if you stay "off the beaten track," it's possible to have an awesome experience in Kenya. I work with a small company called Overland Experts (OEX), which runs 4x4 safari trips to Kenya -- small groups, local guides, sustainable tourism. Google 'em!

If you want more info, you can also e-mail me: alexiskgrant _ AT _ gmail.com

Cheers!

It would depend upon the time of year your wish to travel and your budget.
Either Southern Africa or East Africa is best for wildlife viewing.
Have a browse through our travel centre where there are over 800 different itineraries

It depends how touristy you want to get and what you want to see. Tanzania has the highest wildlife diversity in sub-saharan africa. The popular bits like Serengeti and Ngorongoro are pretty busy but you can go to the largest protected area (excluding the poloar regions), and be the only car on the landscape. I am talking about the Selous Game Reserve where you can walk, drive or go on a boat safari on the Rufiji River.

For walking I recommend the Udzungwa Mountains, part of the Eastern Arc Range with lots of endemics and spectacular forested mountains and waterfalls with plunge pools you can swim in.

Wherever you go enjoy!

I think Kenya is the best destination when it comes to African safaris. As it is a home to an extensive wildlife, I’d recommend all safari goers to grab their flights and land in Nairobi. Luckily, this fantastic destination also offers fantastic resorts when you can have an exotic stay amidst the pure nature.

I’d like to recommend visiting Tanzania in Africa for safari where you have vast range of wild life safaris especially in Zanzibar Island.
Just few months ago my one of uncle visited there and really enjoyed there so I also recommend you visiting there and enjoy the wildlife adventure.

Apart from Jozani Forest, I don't think Zanzibar is a good place for a safari. You'd be far better off on mainland Tanzania...
