I feel it comes down to the guides discretion. Also, roads in the Serengeti are sometimes noon existent.

@@evanlorendo Thanks Evan. I'm currently considering a visit to the serengeti around June this year. Will be filming for youtube and not getting paid, so technically can get by without a film permit. But I do have a lot of professional gear, so permit might save me some hassle. Trying to figure out if I need the film permit for other reasons like offroad driving, driving at night, flying a drone.

@@MovingPicturesAfrica As I would tell anyone, there are for sure Tanzanian laws that have to be followed. That said, use your own lattitude for what you think is right. I know that there is a big focus on drones in the park, so your driver may stop you from letting that go. However, there are only so many resources for enforcement that you will have to use your own judgement.

@@evanlorendo thanks Evan.

Hey, I have found that there are lots of little places to stay outside the park in the Fort Ikoma area. It is a little bit harder to get to, however it is at the north and there are really cheap places that you can go and come out of quite easily. Plus there are usually extra drivers around if you need that.

@@evanlorendo appreciate the advice 👍

Yeah, I wasn't filming, but I put her on top of Table Mountain

Was it worth the wait?

Really fair question: that $60 adds up quick, especially if you are going with a few people or multiple nights. You can turn 2 nights into 3 by staying outside, plus the amenities could be nicer. Yeah, its nice waking up in the park sometimes depending on where you are staying. But some lodges cut power in the middle of the night, where lodges outside the park usually don't. I really recommend Serenity on the Lake (and another is Speke Bay). Get in touch with them directly and get a quote and even negotiate. Both lodges are about 15 min drive from the gate. The Western gate takes a bit to get into the park, but if you don't mind driving a bit more staying outside the park is a great option.

You will have to make the hike and I will meet you at the top for a beer.

We are working on it. What kind of shout out do you want

@@evanlorendo I trust your creative instincts

Mbalengeti is great and recommended. More expensive is Asilia. Both are phenomenal

@@evanlorendomy agent wants to book me in the seronera wildlife lodges, is that bad

@@marsyblackwood5321 thanks for asking. Personally, I will never go back to the Seronera Wildlife Lodge. There are some nice views, but I found it really expensive for what it is and management was terrible. I have heard it may be under new ownership, but I can't confirm it. That said you may be apart of a larger group and they may try to put everyone there. It is a convenient place... For the guides and drivers as it's right smack in the middle. It's also a massive block building hotel, so nothing special. Just looking at the prices, depending on when you are going the Serena is a much nicer hotel and close by. Though I would suggest Kubu Kubu Lodge which is within 5 Kms of Seronera. Really nice, good food, tented room that is flowing instead of a stuffy hotel room. There are other options, so speak to your agent. Reach out if you have any other questions.

Boats and hoes

Its quality! Can't wait to get back

The borders are OPEN. Feel free to come whenever you want!

I figured we would keep that for our private collection

You want me to take you food shopping? Ok, fine, I will put together a video of us going food shopping. I will do another one of our favorite food places. As for the haircuts: it's boring. During lockdown, Linda just cut my hair but normally it is a woman here from Baltimore who used to have a salon there and she cuts everyone's hair.

What do you think I'm showing you

It is an amazing hat! I'll get you onewhen you come to visit

Funny enough, you can bring him everywhere!

Just wait until part 3!

Love you too, keep fighting the good fight

He burnt to a crisp! I can't wait for a Blue sighting in the African Wild.

Awesome! We love being back in Mwanza. It is a great place.

True its great place, it has nice view
