“L’activité est génial, c’était une superbe journée. Le souvenir sera gravé pendant longtemps. Nous avons adoré pouvoir faire l’activité en voiture privé.

En terminant l’activité sur place à 16h pile nous sommes arrivé dans notre hôtel à 22h30 (il y a d’autres alternatives par le train pour réduire ce temps). De plus nous aurions aimé avoir un peu plus d’information sur la vie du parc, des animaux et de la journée par notre guide. Par contre c’est vraiment une activitée incontournable à faire en Tanzanie.”
