My third safari with Ingrid in three years – can you still call It a “Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience”?
Absolutely! Because this was yet another truly unique experience. What a trip!
First, the vast open plains of the Serengeti, followed by the enclosed wilderness of the Ngorongoro Crater, and finally, the fairytale-like ancient baobab trees of Tarangire National Park.
The view of the river from our lodge was simply breathtaking. No wonder Ingrid is organising a photographic safari called Tarangire Express in 2027, as this park really has so much to offer. (Did I mention that during the dry season, around 3,000 elephants can be found in the park? And we actually encountered a great many of them!)
What more can I say about Ingrid's warm and empathetic guidance? She gives every participant equal attention and patiently helps even those using less common camera models.
Special mention must also go to the guides, who once again managed to spot countless birds, reptiles and mammals long before we noticed them ourselves.
And do I even need to mention that the lodges in the national parks were once again carefully selected, and that we enjoyed many wonderful evenings together as a group, sharing delicious meals accompanied by excellent South African wines? That's simply standard practice on an Ingrid safari!
Once again, it was “bora sana”! (Swahili for “super”. Doesn't it sound so much better in Swahili?)
Thank you, Ingrid!
