The safari os well worth taking. The afternoon day trip starts with a buffet & drinks. The buffet features some traditional African dishes as well as standard staples. Everything was cook to perfection. The guided tour was well well done. The driver was knowledgeable and gave great insights into the animals we were viewing along the way. Check them out.
The pick up from the Hotel was on time welcome drink on arrival,and the 2.5 hour game drive did not disappoint. We saw rhino,Lions and many other animals. Will definitely come back again.
Full day tour, about 11 hours but totally worth it. Unforgettable experience seeing all of the Big 5 for the first time. The quick, optional wine tasting stop the tour company organized was a great way to start the day in a good mood and many tanks to our driver Samuel .
