5.00The safari with xxx was incredibly great and we enjoyed it very much. xxx was very respectful towards the animals and nature and, unlike many other cars, we did not chase after the animals. Nevertheless, we saw so many animals such as crocodiles, lots of birds, elephants, deer, monkeys, buffalo, hares and even a leopard. It was truly incredible. Thank you very much for the great experience, we would recommend it to everyone.

5.00We had a great safari experience! Everything was well organized. Our guide picked us up right on time and a simple breakfast was included. Our guide was an excellent spotter when it came to finding animals and drove safely and calmly the whole time. We were able to see many animals — unfortunately no luck with the leopard, not the guide’s fault 😉 Overall, a wonderful and well-run safari that we can definitely recommend!

5.00We had a wonderful safari! A unique experience where we were able to see different animals (leopard, elephants, buffalo, monkeys, birds, etc.) The guide was very kind! He took the time to explain the animals to us and let us admire them! I highly recommend it.
