5.00Great tour and Ben our tour guide was terrific, very professional and experienced. Even when someone on the tour was arguing about exchange rates he was calm and worked hard to bring the group back together. We loved seeing all the animals at the park and Ben was able to squeeze in a last minute sighting of some lions before getting the group to the elephant orphanage just on time with some skillful driving! The tour was well organised and we enjoyed visiting Kobe Beads and the Giraffe centre. The traffic at the end of the tour was terrible, but Ben was patient and skillful in navigating it all! Highly recommend this tour!
An unforgettable day

5.00Amazing trip, great guides and driver (Kevin and Dennis), saw everything we wanted and more, plenty of time spent at each location so as not to feel rushed. Admission is cash only but you're only told this the night before so be prepared to have enough! We only had one day to be tourists and feel like we got a 2 week experience in a day. Well worth the money!
Definitely recommend!
