Beginner-friendly, Safe, Informative, Good value

Good But Had Some Issues

The safari itself was good and we saw plenty of animals. However, there were some organizational issues at the start and one of the vehicles broke down. Company handled it professionally though.

What was great

Good wildlife viewing, Handled problems well, Honest pricing

Could be improved

Vehicle breakdown cost us half a day, Initial confusion at pickup

Kid-friendly, Educational, Safe, Comfortable family accommodations

Could be improved

A bit pricey, but worth it for a family trip
