The WiFi did not reach my room it was 261 so the tv couldn’t not connect . And there was no hot or warm water for the shower . They charged 144$ for one person for a safari over priced for a 2 hours tour . Last the shuttle only comes every hour to air port . I messaged them thru Expedia 4 times and they didn’t msg back . It was late till 920pm just wasted time .
