There wasn't as much life here as I expected. We also did a canoe safari the afternoon we were here. It was a nice break from being in the jeep.

The park is covered by 70% with a lake. We came after heavy rain fall which ment the lake had 80%. And some roads we could take. They are trying to get back some Elephants and other wildlife by cutting some trees and bushes. Which would be great hopefully in the future but for now not so nice. It was nice to see Baboons up close and see them play and live together.

Of the parks visited, this was the hardest to see animals and seems like ecological change has impacted the behavior of them. It was a lush jungly vibe and we did see a lot of wildlife, to be sure, but as a follow on to the other parks, I might have allocated the time to the Crater or Serengeti.

We saw some very unique things and enjoyed it. But the park has suffered extensive flooding over the past ~5 years making it tough to see animals.
