5.00I will use this tour again and again. It was awesome. We started off on a chilly morning bike ride for 3 hours with our guide and then proceeded to lunch at a fine restaurant. The boat ride is definitely a must do for 25 usd it's a bargain.

5.00The round trip was excellent. The driver was early before time, the trip to Hell's was a swift 2 hours drive one way. We saw many animals in the park, zebras, impalas, gazelle, and buffalos and many more. The guide was excellent also. The lake view was breathtaking, many birds on the lake, hippos we saw two families. Lunch place was good. Tried some tilapia fresh from the lake. Generally, I would recommend the tour.
Amazing guides and wonderful experience
