    In german : They were very exciting and thrilling days. I felt very comfortable with the 3 safari guides right from the start. They were there for me at all times. I felt very safe and comfortable. The safari tour was indescribably great, the guides did everything they could to show me as much as possible of nature and the animals. I was given detailed explanations about every animal ???? I would like to thank you for these great and exciting days, especially my friendly and courteous safari team
