“This is a small but beautiful park and actually neglected due to popularity of other wellknown parks in Tanzania. We saw a great variety of game, including the rare Colobus Monkey, the Blue Monkey and Olive Baboon. The birdcalls are astounding and we were fortunate to spot the rare Green Coucal (Ceuthmocharus Aereus). A multitude of flamingoes breed on the lakes. Guides take visitors close to the buffalo herds on foot. We spent a very rewarding day here and would recommend 2 days.” - Mietsie Visser, 2013/03/04
