Ishan was our guide for today. He was very polite, and he found all the right spots. I can definitely recommend him.

The safari was nice because we were lucky enough to see some elephants. Our guide was pretty quick and had the right instinct, so I recommend it. Not suitable if you have back problems, as the ride is very bumpy. One negative point is the "hidden high costs". The trip already cost 220 euros and we then had to pay 26,000 rupees for two people, which was another 83 euros. You should also take a little something to eat with you, because there was no time for lunch.
