Gimhana was a great guide who knew lots about the national park and the animals. We saw elephants, crocodiles, land monitors, peacocks, a warthog and lots more. Would recommend this safari tour and Gimhana as a guide.

Our guide Gimhana was brilliant and arranged to pick us up from an agreed location, he provided us with a wonderful breakfast at an exceptionally reasonable price. We travelled around the park, stopping at various points to see the huge array of wildlife including many species of birds and many peacocks, buffalo, crocodile and of course elephants! Gimhana made sure we had the best spot to view the elephants and they didn't seem phased at all by us pulling up to watch them. Magnificent creatures and a wonderful day out, I learned a lot about the various wildlife at the park as Gimhana was extremely knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!

Gimhana is an excellent guide. He is very kind and professional and he knows very well all the types of animals of the national park.
We were lucky to see a lot of animals that day and it was a great experience!
We also got water and biscuits!

Good tour! We saw lots of elephants and our guide was great at bringing us to them and driving nearby so we had great visibility for a long time. Gimhana was easy to communicate with and well organised. We also saw peacocks, other birds, spotted deer and crocodiles. Would recommend!

The elephants are were the highlight of the park for us. We also saw a crock but that was from a bit of a distance and we would have benefited from some binoculars.
