We had a great day on a mini safari through the reserve. We saw a ton of different species of wildlife and were really impressed by how massive the site was. The hotel was slightly out of my price range, so we were visiting the reserve as non-guests, but had no trouble booking a jeep. It was a lot of fun!!
