Our Safari Day

Susan_D, Feb 2026

The off road jeep was a wild ride, be prepared to be jostled for the entire ride! The animal sightings were amazing. Our tour driver was amazing. He spotted so many animals we would have never caught on our own. We saw deer, buffalo, iguanas, peacocks and other beautiful birds; but the monkeys, elephants, and a sighting of the not often seen leopard was amazing!

Good safari with a lot of support from the company

Asky was very helpful in giving me all the advice I needed beforehand. The guide, Sanka, was punctual, kind and accommodating. He tried very hard to get us a leopard sighting. It didn’t work out this time but we still had a lovely time.
