Not clear pickup time made us be ready a half hour before real pickup. Excellent animals except some too far away. Little too long at the hot springs.

The hot spring was an average one. It’s better to focus on visiting the conservation center which is wonderful and excellent.

It was. All very beautiful excellent guide service ... 100% satisfied I highly recommend it
