The lodging was so comfortable, the grounds we so peaceful, and the food was absolutely amazing!! Our guide for the safari was super friendly and knowledgeable, and it really felt like a private excursion. 10/10 would recommend and definitely plan on coming back once I can travel the world again *sigh*
