The information about this location have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator.

Rank : 9.5 (average on 2 votes)

Coordinates : -7.347825,37.134991 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : All the Big Five, and much of the fauna and avifauna of southern Africa.

Recommended equipment : Millimeters can never have enough! However often you can bring a lot to the subject, I personally find that the Canon 100-400 or a similar glass is definitely the most practical solution.

Best months : The park is open all year round. It can be found, depending on the season, the arid steppe or the green fields ...

How to get there : From Mombasa (Kenya), 9/10 hours of travel on a paved road in good condition. From Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), ca. 4 hours of travel on a paved road in good condition.

Visits : The entrance is free of charge and as often in Africa not cheap, however, in line with the other parks of Tanzania. The opening hours are the hours of daylight, but to enjoy the best card you can camp in the park in areas "camping" in order to take advantage of the early morning hours.

Notes : As written in "Views" to enjoy the best the park would be better to spend the night in tents in the park. Areas "camping" are not fenced, so the first dark is definitely recommended to close in a tent and enjoy the sounds of the night. It is not uncommon to hear the lions roar nearby, emotion at the highest level! Not for the faint of heart (eh eh eh), I guarantee you that adrenaline can rise above the threshold never tried it! The park is not very big but offers many photographic possibilities. Although it is small enough it does contain a gra variety of different territories, so as to be nicknamed the "Little Masai Mara."
