David was fantastic in every respect. In addition to being so knowledgeable about all wildlife, the vegetation, culture, etc., he was funny and entertaining and really kept a smile on his face all day, every day. He kept us on schedule, making sure we were exactly where we needed to be, on time every single day. He made every effort to get us to the right spot at the right time and his intuition was spot on. He really made our trip.

David was always on time and was friendly and helpful. I enjoyed meeting him and having him as a guide. He worked incredibly hard to provide us with the best game viewing opportunities possible! Sometimes he seemed to be channeling the animals as he could predict where they were going to go next. Although seeing game might have been first on my list of things I wanted to happen, I was also interested in the bird life. Serendipitously we discovered that David was also an knowledgeable birder and was incredible at spotting even the smallest birds. This was an unexpected bonus. In the future, if other clients have an interest in birds as well as animals, pairing them with David might be especially successful. This is not something I thought about before our safari–just a happy coincidence!

David was charming and really was a great fit with our family. His knowledge of flora, fauna birds and wildlife was encyclopedic. He knew every road in all four parks we visited. And he clearly loves his job and his country. On a scale of 1-10, he was an 11. He really made our trip wonderful.

David did an outstanding job in helping us to have the best possible Tanzanian safari experience. He provided expertise and knowledge to see that our schedule fit best with the likely availability of the animals, maneuvered the vehicle so that we could obtain the optimal photographs, showed consideration & respect for other people and animals, offered assistance in moving luggage and other tasks, kept the vehicle in clean working condition, skillfully navigated rough unpaved & unmarked roads, worked long hours to satisfy our desire to maximize our time in the field…all while maintaining a pleasant demeanor. He drove over to help another vehicle that was stuck in mud, but only after first asking us whether it was all right. We felt like we were in competent hands. David is friendly and talkative but not overbearing. He is obviously very experienced, yet he often made it seem like he was just as thrilled as we were to spot a bird, cheetah, black mamba, dung beetle or birthing wildebeest.

David was great from start to finish. He met us at the airport, and was a great resource for our questions. Helped us stock up for our safari at the local grocery store. His knowledge and experience makes him an outstanding guide. He was always able to find the animals we wanted to see. His personality is easy going, and he likes to have fun with his safari party. We all had a great time.

David is excellent! He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the job.

Our guide, David, helped to make the trip the amazing adventure that it was! We felt comfortable with him from the start. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the animals. He even looked up animals in his guide books to make sure he was right, or that he pronounced the names correctly. He went out of his way to find as many animals as he could for us. He also parked his vehicle so we could get the best spot for our pictures. He was funny, keeping us laughing a majority of the time. He was a good driver on the rocky roads that we encountered. He was also patient, taking us to stores and waiting for us so we could do some shopping, without ever complaining. David had a great personality and felt like a member of the family. I would highly recommend him for anyone who is planning on making this adventure.

David was awesome! He kept us well informed, made sure we saw what we wanted to see and kept us laughing along the way.

David was on time and cautiously friendly when we arrived. It did not take long for him to warm up to us and we had a wonderful safari across Northern Tanzania because of him. David is excellent at understanding animal behavior. Many times he anticipated what was going to happen, so put us in the right spot to view something special. He obviously loves finding and watching animals and we were tireless customers. He never lost energy for the job even though we were on some long days. He is an excellent driver and we felt very safe with him in all kinds of conditions. He had the vehicle impeccably ready for us and was very ready to provide us with the experience we sought. We had several good laughs and there was a lot of joy in seeing David delighted with something. I imagine he is quite the story teller.

THE BEST!!! Number one! Outstanding. Fun personality. Took individual care of each one of us, including shoulder rides for 10-year old to “poly poly” grandma, and photographer. Worked early to 10 pm to get new tires and jeep in good shape. Drove to western corridor in Serengeti so we could see great migration, which was an extra plus that was not expected. Also insured we got to see rhino. Provided the best vantage point to view wildlife. Soaked his shoes placing boulders for crossing creek on hike. Feel blessed and lucky to get David as our safari guide.
