The conditions were windy and the guide did not adjust to the difficult conditions so it was too hard and too long . Did not see wildlife either

Canoeing with crocodiles and hippos is something else. Felt safe under excellent guides. Hit the paddle onto the water then the coroc dives down and you can paddle over it. Keep good distance to the hippos and paddle fast. Keep your legs and fingers firmly inside the boat, to tapping into the water. Awesome!
