Thousands of amazing photo opportunities there. I believe you have chosen your travel destination unwisely.

Oh, and forget those pills next time. Use long sleeve clothes instead.

I confirm I saw a lot of lions in Serengeti and Ngorongoro, some very close, but few elephants; also thousand of gnus and hundreds of zebras; then we went to Tarangire river and we saw lots of elephants and buffaloes.

We followed the advice of the tour operator (Kuoni), and chose Tanzania over Kenya, at the end of the dry season so that the grass was low and wildlife more easily visible.

I was with my son and daughter, and we had a private car and competent guide for the three of us.

Many more pictures on my Flickr gallery.
