Summary:
From pick up to drop off, this was a great experience. We were able to see elephants, kudos, oryx, baboons, wilder beasts, and many more animals. The snacks and drinks at sunset was everything. I highly recommend this experience!

Summary:
Great experience, with a knowledgeable tour guide. The landscape was amazing. We didn't see that many animal species, but it felt like a real safari with wild animals rather than a zoo experience. The hippos were cool to watch!

Summary:
This tour is great, there’s a good selection of animals and you can get pretty close without agitating the animals.
The area is beautiful and there was plenty of water available throughout the tour if you didn’t bring any.
Our guide Festus made everyone feel comfortable immediately and was more than happy to answer all our questions.
