Such an amazing experience! I would recommend doing the drive thru because it's so much fun to see all these animals close up! It is such a beautiful experience and such a beautiful environment! They also sell beer inside and food in the walk in part of this safari! They also have a spotify playlist to listen to while doing the drive thru so you can learn a little bit more about the animals!

Es una experiencia extraordinaria, estar cerca de los animales salvajes, y las personas que trabajan en el zoológico ,muy profesionales. Tuvimos la experiencia con las jirafas era algo increíble , poder tocarlas y el guía nos explicó todo muy interesante, acerca de las jirafas.

This place is amazing!! You literally drive through wild life in your car or if you didn't drive you can take a bus from the wild life park and tour it as well!! They have all the wild life as well as a little river ride. They have zip line and a small water park for the kids. We really enjoyed coming here and driving casually through this wild life park!! You have to make this one of your must see places!! Say hello to the Ostrich as you begin your drive through PS: bring lots of water and snacks or pack a lunch, they don't have much to eat inside.

This was the most fantastic safari sanctuary for animals and the closest I have ever come to these beautiful creatures. Take the VIP tour, it was well worth it! The staff are incredibly knowledgeable especially Joe, Noemi, and Checo. We dined on yummy, traditional-to-Puebla bread sandwich cemitas on the island (extension of the restaurant that you must cross a swinging bridge to reach) next to the monkeys.

Africam Safari is a beautiful zoo! The safari across the savannah is best done by personal car. The buses are too crowded.,The savannah is divided into zones .. environments you would find in Africa. The animals are out, free to roam and you can get up close as you drive from zone to zone. Then you enter the zoo where animals are in enclosures. I volunteer at our zoo in Phx and thoroughly enjoyed Africam.

Not worth the time for a foreigner. I guess it's okay for people who live there and need something to do, but do NOT visit Puebla and think you'll have to go there. The Safari is weak and the zoo is not all that. Meh!

This place is very family friendly. Nice tours and faculty is very polite. Animals are most definitely not caged and its very nice to see them roam in a habitat for them. Do recommend going. Very nice place to relax as well. Gift shop is very nice as well. Great place for the kids to roam and play. 10/10

See the zoo’s majestic lions and Bengal tigers. The Adventure Zone is where you’ll find other intriguing creatures, such as anteaters, bats and meerkats. Browse the souvenirs on display in the gift shop here.

Watch the spectacular Birds Show in the afternoon to see the tricks of resplendent avian creatures. Aside from the animals, the park offers exciting activities. Enjoy the thrills of the zip line 50 feet (15 meters) in the air.

Stroll through the serene and picturesque surroundings of the Botanical Garden. Inspect the array of Mexican trees and plants.

Take a break for lunch at the Kilimanjaro restaurant, which has an excellent view of the zoo’s African savannah, or try pizza at the Madagascar establishment. The park is a popular place for events such as weddings and birthday parties. Imagine having your special event in the Valley of the Giraffes or Island Tangañika.

There is a fee for entrance to Africam Safari, with a small discount for kids and those with a Mexican senior card. The complex opens every day of the year from morning until early evening.

Africam Safari

Africam Safari is a Mexican safari park that was established in 1972 by Captain Carlos Camacho Espíritu. It is about 17 kilometers from the city of Puebla, Mexico.

Africam Safari is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA).

History of the Africam Safari

Africam Safari started as a private animal collection owned by Carlos Camacho Espíritu, a veteran, pilot, radio host and businessman, who lived in Valsequillo, Puebla.

Camacho got the idea to create a park where animals could develop and reproduce their species in areas resembling their habitat in the wild. Camacho called this zoo prototype Africam, a portmanteau of Africa (continent where most of the species in the zoo come from), and his last name Camacho.

Safari Zone

Visitors to the park become immersed in animal habitats, which very closely resemble the wild. The animals roam freely and the visitors can observe them from their own vehicles or the park’s guided buses. Africam Safari has several habitats, including African Savannah, American steppes, Tropical Jungle, Mexican Forest, Tiger Lake, Lion Territory, and walk-through adventure zone.

There are approximately 2500 animals of 350 species that roam freely in a habitat that is said to encourage animal development and reproduction. There are signals next to the way that prevents the visitor from animal attacks, advising the visitor to close the window and not to disturb the animals.

• Delta de Okavango: an area based on the Okavango Delta in Botswana, where most animals from the African steppes, savannah grasslands, Malagasy gallery forests, and Andean regions are found in the park. This section is home to reticulated giraffes, black-and-white ruffed lemurs, ring-tailed lemurs, African elephants, helmeted guineafowls, common elands, waterbucks, impalas, Egyptian geese, ostriches, nilgais, sable antelopes, llamas, mouflons, Barbary sheep, capibaras, Baird’s tapirs, and Asian elephants.
• Oasis: this section is not based on a specific area in the world, it resembles an oasis in American rainforests. This section is home to military and scarlet macaws.
• Desierto de Kalahari: an area based on the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa, where most animals from Central Africa, India, and the Caribbean are found. This section includes white rhinoceros, Grant’s zebras, blue wildebeests, lechwes, Cape buffalo, black-crowned cranes, sarus crane, dromedary, black rhinoceros, and flamingos.
• Serengeti: an area based on Serengeti in Tanzania, where only African lions are found.
• Bakuli: an area based on forests in Bhutan, Vietnam, and India. This section is home to chital, fallow deer, scimitar oryx, Nubian ibex, and sika deer.
• Huasteca: an area based on La Huasteca in San Luis Potosí, where animals from Mexican forests are found. This section is home to the American black bear, Coyote, white-tailed deer, collared peccary, and Canada goose.
• Chitwan: an area based in Chitwan District in Nepal, where Indian animals are found. This section is home to Bengal tigers, wild Asian water buffalo, gaur, blackbuck, and chital.
• Zona de Descanso (Rest Zone): an area where visitors are allowed to leave their vehicles to use the park services (restaurant, public toilets, gift shop, and snack bar). There are four exhibits where hippopotamus, chimpanzees, spectacled bears, and striped hyaenas can be found.
• Yellowstone: an area based on Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming where North American species can be found. This section is home to American bison and elk.

Adventure Zone

The Zona de Aventuras (Adventure Zone) is a section in the park where vehicles are not allowed and visitors must walk to get in different areas. This section includes a butterfly zoo, a bat exhibit, a herpetarium and insectarium, a kangaroo exhibit, and a botanical garden.

• X-Mahana: a garden and butterfly zoo inside a Maya-themed building where monarch butterflies are raised.
• Jardín Botánico Louise Wardle de Camacho: a botanical garden that shows Mexican plant species, mostly regional cactus, agaves and a holm oak forest. Louise Wardle de Camacho was Carlos Camacho’s wife.
• Tarántulas y Otros “Bichos” (Tarantulas and Other “Bugs”): is an herpetarium and insectarium that shows reptiles, amphibians and arthropods.
• Caverna de Murciélagos (Bat Cavern): an exhibit that shows Egyptian fruit bats.
• Canguros (Kangaroos): an exhibit that shows Australian species: red kangaroos, red-necked wallabies, and emus.

This section is home to giant anteaters, agouti, red pandas, Chilean flamingo peacocks, spider monkeys, Morelet’s crocodiles, prairie dogs, southern screamer, tufted capuchins, scarlet macaws, meerkats, African spurred tortoise, kinkajous, blue tegu, hamadryas baboons, trumpeter hornbills, highland guan, gray brocket, African porcupines, rhinoceros hornbills, gray Mexican wolf, Indian pythons, crocodile monitor, savannah monitor, squirrel monkeys, red-handed tamarin, horned guan, patas monkey, big hairy armadillo, great horned owl and black swans.

Nocturnal Safari

Conservation.

Captain Carlos Camacho Espiritu created Africam with the purpose of creating a community conscience about the protection of animals. It is one of the few such establishments in Latin America which includes white tigers in its list of animals.

Africam Safari was the first institution in Mexico to successfully assist reproduction of the golden eagle, which is pictured on the Mexican flag. The Safari maintains a captive population of the Tuxtla quail-dove and has been very successful in breeding this endangered species.

Other conservation programs in the wild in which Africam Safari is involved: a jaguar in the northern Mexican mountains, humpback whales in the Pacific Ocean, flamingos in the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexican military macaw, sea lions off the Mexican Pacific Coast, a manatee in Quintana Roo, and many others.

Animals Around the Globe

10 Best African Countries for Safari

Posted: December 19, 2023 | Last updated: December 19, 2023

#1 Botswana

Recommended Tours:

Thus, poachers are seen as enemies of the people. As a result, Botswana has come into view as Africa's most sought-after ecotourism destination. Starting from the Chobe National Park to the Moremi Nature Reserve, you'll be able to witness numerous gems all around the country.

Back in 2014, Botswana widely banned the hunting of wild animals and implemented strict laws which are still in practice. The country resumes its zero-tolerance for poaching and their very own environmental minister, Tshekedi Khama, has even launched a shoot-to-kill policy for poachers.

Botswana, with its wildlife conservation and natural parks, is a haven for nature lovers. It is currently in the top 5, as its approach to the protection and conservation of wildlife is worth the praise. As a country, it is very forward-thinking, some may even call it aggressively forward-thinking when it comes to its preservation and anti-poaching laws.

Its fertile land provides a safe and comforting home to around 200 mammal species. This includes elephants, hippos, monkeys and so much more. Along with 650 bird species and 5,500 plants. Even though the country is still underdeveloped and most of the population live in rural households, its national parks, and sight-seeing destinations are on the top 10 of our lists.

Even though many would face some difficulties in locating Malawi on a map, given how tiny it is, the country is home to the world-renowned Lake Malawi National Park. This is practically one-third of the country and is the most biodiverse lake in the world.

Most of the land in Namibia is occupied by the Kalahari and Namib Deserts. Along with that, the country also has 12 national parks and many other areas which are protected. So, if you go there for a safari, you'll have many rich areas to see and explore.

When it comes to countries with the least amount of population, Namibia is one of them. Which proves to be a good thing for nature. This is because most of the land in Namibia is still unspoiled by human filth or any sort of development, giving nature a chance to breathe.

In the country's Volcanoes National Park, you'll find 10 habituated gorilla families. Groups of 8 trekkers can visit them for one hour per day. But that's enough to get the best African safari experience. And as a nature lover, you'll enjoy the experience to the max.

If you've been around for some time, you'll be familiar with Rwanda's mountain gorillas. They were famously broadcasted and their fight for survival was shown on  National Geographic . This was all thanks to the late  Dian Fossey  back in the 1970s who advocated for the rights of these mountain gorillas throughout her life.

Considering the tragic history surrounding the mass genocide of the people of Rwanda back in 1994, it's truly a blessing what the country has achieved in the past 25 years. There have been countless investments in infrastructure. This has resulted in the country being a very fast-growing destination for ecotourism.

#6 South Africa

But given all the advantages, it's safe to conclude that South Africa also suffers from over-tourism. I mean, if you have so many great attractions, people will flock towards it. Chances are that you'll find yourself in the middle of dozens of unruly visitors who are not too keen on obeying the rules. This occurs mostly during the peak seasons.

Annually, the country has one million visitors. Its biggest attraction is the Kruger National Park with its enrichment in biodiversity. Visitors there also have the liberty to self-drive, thus, getting a first-person private but superb experience. 

For some time now, South Africa has been climbing the charts to become one of the most popular destinations for African safaris. Given its location, South Africa is a very convenient and cheap destination for people from the United States. Besides that, the country also boasts a well-developed infrastructure which makes it perfect for luxury travelers as well.

#7 Tanzania

One of the most popular locations would be the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The country is also a haven for 1100 different bird species. It's no wonder that Tanzania gets this much rep. Especially when the country boasts so many wonders.

We talked about Kenya being the top destination for Safari. Now Tanzania here takes second place in being the continent's most popular safari destination. And why shouldn't it? The country has 16 national parks and an extraordinary amount of wealth and wildlife wonders for the people to witness.

Some of its natural attractions include housing the highest mountain range in Africa. It also has the world's largest free-standing volcano and the second-largest freshwater lake. With its 30 national parks and other wildlife reserves, Uganda boasts many more sanctuaries which are worth the visit. Especially if you're a lover of nature and wildlife.

Often called "The Pearl of Africa", Uganda is certainly a great pick for an African safari. Its reputation as being one of the best ecotourism destinations comes from the country's natural attractions and wildlife.
