Wonderful Tanzania experience, combining interesting local visits with the splendor of safari wildlife viewing

Noel was amazing! He was so kind and thoughtful in the way he tried to make sure we were getting everything we wanted out of the trip. He was active on the radio to find animals that certain people in our family wanted to see, helped us stop to get some local roadside food in one of the towns we were driving through, and was always flexible with us on timing/scheduling for each day, including noticing and adapting to our energy levels. It was very impressive how he could spot / identify animals from such a distance, as well as speak knowledgeably about their behaviors and characteristics. It was great to see him light up when talking about his family, hear him open up more about things in Tanzania beyond the scope of just our safari, and ask us questions about our own lives and life back in the US. My (our) experience in Tanzania would not have been the same without Noel!!
