I had an amazing time! In just one day we visited the forest, waterfall and the source of the Nile. Everything was well organised and we didn't feel pressed for time. In each place, we were accompanied by a different local guide. Yusuf, the driver, is friendly, knowledgeable and very organised. Highly recommended!
