It was an OKAY tour - This was an interesting experience, we have never been in a Safari bus tour before so we didn’t know what to expect. It was our last day so we were wanting a 4 hour (half day) trip instead of an 8 hour (all day) tour. We were picked up at 7:15am and were dropped off to our hotel at 3:10pm. That is 8 hours, and we were right, it was very long and tiring and not what we were hoping for. We for 6.5 of those 8 hours we were driving about 50mph in this big bus with the wind in your face. We both had a massive headache at the end because we were so wind blown. It was painful at times the faster the driver went. Was it cool to see more of the countryside? Yes. But it was not worth it to us, to be so completely wind blown. The lunch was good and the house was neat. Our tour guide was good. We didn’t really get to ask questions during the drive about the countryside because we were in the wind and no one could hear anyone talking, so that was a bummer. Overall, it was okay. If we would have know we would’ve been gone for 8 instead of 4 hours and be completely wind blown, we would not have gone.
