I really enjoyed the safari. Saw many elephants, crocodiles and pelicans and the guide was very informative and friendly. Nice to see the animals in their natural habitat. Thanks.

Het reservaat bestaat in feite uit 3 parken. Onze chauffeur heette Pliant. Hij toonde ons arenden, aapjes, veel gekleurde vogels en een olifant in de jungle die zich aan het wassen was. De kuddes olifanten bleven echter uit ... Dan bemerkten we plots een eenzaam mannetje. Pliant naderde tot 20 meter. In de verte zagen we nog een mannetje aan het meeren waterbuffels, maar niet de honderden olifanten waarvan sprake was. Pliant deed echt zijn best om olifanten te spotten. We stonden stil met de jeep (alleen) en toen verschenen er plots tientallen olifanten uit de bosjes Ze ging op 10 meter van onze jeep staan en wandelden dan verder naar het meer. Dit is een van de mooiste momenten van mijn reizen geweest!!!! Zo mooi met al die kleintjes. Ondertussen waren er wel plots veel jeeps toegekomen.
Toen we het reservaat uitreden, stonden ze echt aan te schuiven (file!!!) om het reservaat in te rijden. Dat zou ik wel niet zo tof hebben gevonden.
