Kruger National Park was the most exciting - we saw absolutely everything there was to see - Rhino, Hippo, Lions, Elephants, Leopards, Crocodiles, Hyenas, Baboons, Water Buffalo, Impala, Wart Hogs, Kudu, Springbok and Birds too numerous to mention.

The most exciting part was eeing the big 5 in Ngangongoro; watching a leopard hunt in South Luangwa..A great way of seeing a lot of different places and trying out a lot of things in a relatively short period.

I enjoyed seeing the ruins, particularly Leptis Magna. Expect long days of driving, and camping in the open.

Most memorable was definitely horse riding in and around Lake Malawi. It was soo much fun. Or maybe bush camping in the Serengeti.

It's impossible to state the most memorable part of this holiday as it really was superb in all aspects. The holiday was everything and more than we could have imagined.

I loved meeting the people and seeing remote villages that had never had a visitor. The markets were fun and the little goats and sheep were so cute, though not when they're strapped to the roof of the car, bleating in anticipation of being eaten for supper.

Returned tired (in the last days I did abseil, rafting, micro light, travelled for 36 hours,..) but really enjoyed it! The most memorable parts of the holiday; saw a lion on a tree, the lake with hippos in new year, the new friends.
