The activity was fun we got to see a lot of animals and had a good time. Our tour guide Joe was amazing and nice.

Laura – United States

Quite literally the best experience of my life! Pickup and drop off were smooth. The accommodation and the food was even better than I expected. But most importantly, we had the BEST guide Castro! Castro was super nice and funny and so knowledgeable. We were able to see 4 of the Big Five and so many other animals because of him. We were always in the right spots to take great photos and videos. An experience I will hold with me for forever, thank you!
