That was one of my top travel experiences ever! The Jeep Safari was also a great deal of fun. The hotel was exceptional and it made me want to stay longer. My guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. My one little complaint was that the driver was on his phone way more than seemed to be necessary. I don't know if that is a cultural thing, but it made the travel uncomfortable, for me.”
