Hotel maravilhoso
AS acomodações do hotel são fantásticas.
O safari é muito legal. Conseguimos ver praticamente todos os bichos, O guia e o tracker muito atenciosos.
Tivemos um problema com uma das reservas. Uma das pessoas foi bem solicita, mas o outro atendente parecia que estava fazendo um favor.
Cobraram a acomodação duas vezes e ainda estou tentando resolver o problema.
