Eugene - Thanks for the detailed review. It's well written and fills in some extra details.

We concur the travel schedule with the long days on safari got tiring. We found each of the camps we visited (a total of four) were different enough to merit their own visit. We opted for first-time visits to the camps on ROAR 2 and are even happier with our choices given your review. For us, the shorter overall trip length, chance to travel with Ngaire and the LCTers again, and a significantly lower cost makes this a "must do" in our book.

Thanks, too, for your views on SAA. We found service to be fine to/from Frankfurt, thanks to above-average flight attendants. I am still awaiting mileage credit into my UA account, after sending in a second round of paperwork for credit. Very annoying, indeed. Hang onto your passenger receipt, boarding passes and copy of your e-ticket until your mileage posts.

What are some of the locations higher up on the list for you to visit next?

Cheers, Anne
