Fantastic tour!!

Extra costs for park fees caught me by suprise. Tour itself was great. Sylvie our guide was FANTASTIC. She kept the group on schedule (late group members is a major pain on group trips). She was engaging and funny, but didn't talk too much. Very good tour, driver stopped for you to take pictures of wild life, boat tour was awesome. Can't say enough good things about this tour and Sylvie.
