“Could see many beautiful birds, such as owls and eagles. Also an Elefant was visible from very close. However, it was raining. This is not a problem per se, but the guide was not very considerate of the fact that we were getting completely wet in the back of the jeep, while he was sitting inside the driving section. Additionally, not much was explainined about the animals or the park, especially because the guide was sitting in the front all the time.”

Sakun is so passionate and knowledgable about all the birds and animals. Highlights were seeing pied kingfishers, an otter and a golden jackal up close. I highly recommend this trip.”
