“Nihal is a fantastic guide who knows his wildlife and took as much pleasure as we did in seeing it. He has a good knowledge of his country and their cultures. He is a good driver and we felt safe in his hands – he kept us in one piece on the chaotic roads! He was patient, kind and helpful and was part of the holiday experience.”
