The views were amazing.. Our guide Simon came on time and treated us with pure kindness.. We took so many photos...The flamingos were amazing.. We'd love to revisit the place again and explore more.

Amazing

Published on Sep, 2022

The lake is amazing but the transportation to it is very bad because of bad roads and also the van is uncomfortable. I suggest to drive first to the site by car and then take the safari van or jeep

Truly spectacular

Published on Jan, 2022

This was amazing. A day well spent was a lot of animals and the guides were fun and very knowledgeable. The boat ride is worth it
