Africa is a huge continent, choosing where to go on safari is a decision that will require several factors such as costs, accessibility, risks and the diversity of animals you want to see.

Today we will make some recommendations on the 5 best countries to do safari in Africa:

 

Tanzania

Although there are dozens of parks and nature reserves in Tanzania, there are 3 that you must visit without a doubt: Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and the Serengeti. These are 3 of the best animal reserves in the world. Going down to the Ngorongoro crater and meeting its great diversity of animals is a surreal moment.

 

Gabon

This country is a small gem of the African continent. Covered by tropical rain forests, with a great diversity of rivers and waterfalls, and rich in resources. Here is the reserve that many conservationists called «the last Eden of Africa», Loango National Park.

 

Zimbabwe

The best and most well-known national park is Hwange National Park. You will need several days to be able to explore all the wonders and observe the species present in this ecosystem. If you are an adrenaline lover, you cannot leave out Mana Pools National Park.

 

Zambia

There are two essential reserves to visit on your trip: South Luangwa and Lower Zambezi. Both have a unique and extraordinary diversity of animals. The presence of continuous water in the Lower Zambezi means that you may have a better chance of seeing certain species in seasons that would not be possible to see them elsewhere.

 

South Africa

Without a doubt, Kruger National Park is one of the best nature reserves in the world for safaris. The great diversity of animals in Kruger is one of its greatest attractions. Here you will have a good chance of meeting any of your favorite animals.
