our guide Kemal sorted everything for us and a cheetah on the hunt was the highlight. Last day of the trip so it wasnt too busy. Used it for our summer trip, and we saw 4 of the big five in one day. Would book again no question, 10/10

our guide Noa had so many stories and a leopard up a tree near the river was the highlight, and good as a half-day option, and spotted maybe 30 species.
