“This was one of the best experiences we have ever booked. Our guide, whose nickname was Big boy 😊, was amazing. He was very motivated to find and show us as many animals as possible. We have seen a Pyton, several tarantulas, birds, monkeys, etc. And the dinner was amazing. We have helped him cook, was very nice experience folding banana leaves, etc. the food was amazing.
