“Good couple of days. It’s a long couple of days though, the trip to Doho was long and hot. The guide didn’t really chat to us much at first but I did get to know him a lot and enjoyed his time. Doho is a nice lodge, the hot springs are great, but they are hot! And awash is always hot! So stay hydrated! Didn’t see any animals AT ALL in the park, so avoid that. Humans have sadly taken over! The crocs were cool at the beautiful falls though! Bit expensive this tour but good experience!”
