We visited the National Park, the tour guide was excellent. Very knowledgable and helped us get the best pictures of the wildlife. Booked several activities through the resort. I would recommend them all. Good value for your money.

It was a bit confusing getting into the park with lots of people talking to us at once. We had to pay for “securoty” for our car. It was a bit overwhelming. Once into the park our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Great tour! Saw lots of animals!
