Elly was awesome–he was able to show us so much wildlife, and he taught us a TON about the animals we were viewing. He was also fun to talk to during meals. Overall outstanding guide!

Elly was amazing! His professionalism and expertise allowed us to fully experience the incredible wildlife across all five national parks we visited. He shared valuable insight into the traditions and customs of both Moshi and the Maasai, enriching our understanding of the culture. Elly was a true pleasure to be around—kind, attentive to our needs, and dedicated to making sure we enjoyed every part of our trip. By the end of the tour, he felt like a member of the family.

We loved our time with Elly! He was so personable, knowledgeable, and wanted to meet our needs. We had lots of questions and he would answer them. He would also share his books to point out more about the animals or trees. He was also good at talking to other guides to help them when needed and find animals for us. Twice another guide got stuck and he helped them. You can really tell Elly has a big heart and loves his job! We enjoyed eating meals with him and our conversations! He has a calm and caring presence! His knowledge and how he presented information to us was so valuable. He shared his story about the ties with Access 2 Tanzania. You can tell that he is a loyal, dedicated, and hardworking person. He shares many values that we do and we really enjoyed connecting with him. He truly made the safari experience outstanding!!! At dinners he would ask what the best part of the day was. All of us would think and share! We would then come up with the animals we wanted to see and he would help us devise the plan for the next day. His…

Elly was so perfect for us – he was up for anything and had so much information to give us about the animals and the area. He was friendly and helpful at every turn.

Elly was professional, patient, friendly, funny, and a great person. Our entire family had a great time getting to know Elly and we had an amazing time with him the entire trip. His personality fit in with each individual from us parents to each of our three teenagers. I don’t want to leave out our other A2T guides we spent time with. We spent a day with Haji walking through several Chaga villages and having lunch with Mama Grace. While our time with Haji was brief, he was great to get to know and spend time with as well. In just a few hours we built a strong connection with him and learned a lot about TZ and the people that live there. We also spent one day of safari with Nasibu and had a very successful first game drive exploring Arusha National Park. While the Safari experiences we had were great by themselves, I think the A2T guides made the difference and we feel like we made new friends and memories with them that we will cherish even more.

Elly is fantastic and we feel that we have a new friend. He has such a great personality and seems to know everyone in the entire country of Tanzania. He was wonderful teaching us about the animals, the land, the people, the language, and the culture. We loved our time getting to know this exceptional human!

Elly was absolutely amazing. He demonstrated sincere care for as customers and was always wanting to please us. He was always patient, kind, and knew the area extremely well. He wanted to make sure we didn’t miss any opportunity to experience something unique and special. Our conversations and what we learned from Elly were an unexpected bonus that greatly enriched our safari experience and our time in the country. He was also a lot of fun! We will miss him!

Elly was unbelievable! Not only did he know about the animals and plants while we were on safari, Elly learned about us as a couple and told us about himself. He made sure to find us the animals we were interested in. Elly answered our questions about anything and everything.

Elly was great at communicating with us beforehand and a wonderful guide throughout our Safari. He was genuinely excited to show us the parks and we feel like generally we got to see the best of it all thanks to him. We really enjoyed meeting him and thank him for taking good care of us.
