5.00The day started all well ... everything was easy since Earnest had made prior payments,we didn't have to wait on the payment lines. He seemed well versed with the parked from the onset. This helped us spot almost all the big fives in Nairobi national park. By the time we were setting back everyone was impressed. I would recommend Earnest anytime ....game drive ain't just about driving. You need a driver who couples as a guide . Earnest is exactly that!
