Issue 101 (August-October 2023)
Our surveys for the special readers’ Issue 100 showed, unsurprisingly, that the Maasai Mara is one of your favourite places; but you were also concerned about the impact of tourism on the reserve’s wildlife. So, in Issue 101 we take a deep dive into the efforts to conserve the Mara and what we all can do to relieve pressure on its wildlife. It’s a celebration of the Mara and an interesting insight to how we can minimise our impact wherever we travel. Another ever-popular park is South Africa’s Kruger, and Mike Unwin’s diary shows how you can achieve a reliably rewarding wildlife experience here, while our practical guide to the underrated Tarangire National Park in Tanzania will help you to plan a rewarding visit. At the other end of the scale, Philip Briggs visits one of the most little-visited, but vast, parks: Gonarezhou, in southern Zimbabwe. There’s plenty more in this issue for intrepid travellers (Algeria, anyone?) or those looking to slow down and take time getting to know a destination. And the mag wouldn’t be complete without more of your own stories and another reader photo gallery!
