Réserve de Bandia
Nature preserve
👍👍 Very cool experience, even though it is probably hard to classify as a real safari. You get driven around in a car, where it is easy to see the wildlife and take good pictures. The guide was helpful and spoke English and French perfectly, and allowed for photo stops during the tour.
