Tanzania Guide: Noel
Noel is a remarkable person and an incredible guide
It is hard to describe Noel’s performance. He is personable and patient. Noel is an excellent guide who makes every attempt to give you accurate information. He seems as excited as we were about our wildlife viewing. He listened to our requests and made helpful suggestions in planning our game drive each day. He networks with the other guides as well as anyone else who has wildlife information–even a utility truck driver. I think Noel knows everyone. He was extremely successful in locating wildlife. He made our safari incredible. We … Read More
The Legend: Noel
We loved spending time with Noel. We had as much fun just talking with him as we did seeing the animals. We learned so much about Tanzania through Noel. He can was always so patient and kind with us, always smiling and laidback. We were impressed how respected he was by the other guides and rangers, as well. That is so important because they rely on each other for help animal spotting and the road conditions. Noel is a real legend!
Magical Adventure!
I’m sure everyone is great, but we feel like we won the lottery with Noel! He is so funny and calm and nice… he was just a pleasure to spend time with and get to know. He enjoyed our company too… even after we put the fake rubber snake on his chair! We all consider him a friend.
Perfect
Noel was professional, patient, flexible, good natured, excellent at spotting wildlife.
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 … Read More
A caring, effective and informative guide
Noel is a knowledgeable, caring soul who related well with all the personalities in our families. He knew what he was doing at all times. I must commend him for handling the very challenging driving conditions/roads throughout the trip. He showed great concern and empathy when one member of our group had a bad health day. A video we have of him dancing with our youngest son (who is 32) in the middle of the Serengeti and finding music on the radio that our son wanted showed Noel’s ability to … Read More
In love with Tanzania because of this guide
Noel is an incredible professional and a wonderful human being. He was always on time, listened to our concerns or questions and then addressed any actions that needed to happen. He shared his experiences and made sure we had a fabulous time. When I go back to Tanzania, it will be Noel I request.
Best guides ever.
Our guides Noel and Joachim started out as strangers and left as family. We could not have ask for more informative, earnest, trustworthy and fun guides. By day 3 on our safari we had a “kids” Land Rover and adult Land Rover. Both Noel and Joachim spent 7+ hours on safari with a truck full of 6 boys ages 6-17. The kids loved it and so did the parents. That is an example of how much we trusted, respected and appreciated our guides. They were ALWAYS pleasant, prompt, communicative and … Read More
A most extraordinary life experience in Tanzania
Noel is one of the kindest human beings I ever met. We loved and respected him very much. I cannot imagine a better guide. He was very patience, well informed, passionate about his work. He know exactly how to make our wildlife viewing an exceptional experience. He had a nice sense of humor and overall a joy to be with. When our 4×4 broke down he made an extraordinary effort to get us to the lodge safely and we had another vehicle by the next morning. That was impressive. It … Read More
Noel Knows Tanzania
Noel is amazing! He’s very knowledgeable about the wildlife and very friendly. We had a blast with him. He heard about a leopard being down the hill from the lodge and found us after lunch to see if we wanted to go try to find it. We were so excited because we had yet to see one so of course we said yes. Just thinking that would interest us made us happy and we were able to see the leopard. We saw all The Big 5. We were strangers when … Read More
