“De gids was fantastisch! Enorm gepassioneerd, wist veel, deed extra moeite om ons alle dieren te laten zien. En we hebben er kneiterveel gezien😍! Olifanten en leeuwen op 2 meter afstand, hoe gaaf.. Klagen over deze excursie is voor de zuurpruimpjes.

“Having experienced other Safaris in Pilanesberg, South Africa, Aberdare, Kenya and Maasai Maria, Kenya, this Safari has much less number of each type animals. Contrary to what was advertised as possibly seeing the big 5, Rhino was expected NOT to be seen. Lots of the park are shrubs and trees making the animals hard to find. Redeeming points are variety of birds and hippos.”
