A great itinerary and awesome guide make for a fantastic safari!
Joachim was a perfect guide for us. He is very knowledgeable about the animals, plants, countryside, parks, people. He was a careful driver, kept us in the know about any plans or changes, great communicator. We had some great conversations about Tanzania, the US, Norway, cars, teenagers. He knew many of the other guides from A2T and other operators, and it was clear they respected his input on routes, directions, help in general. We liked seeing how much the guides help each other and Joachim definitely was a part of it. He asked if plans were good or we wanted to do anything different (we mostly stuck to the agenda). We would recommend Joachim to everyone.
“Karen was always ready to listen and address our questions. She has a warm friendly way of connecting with us. I am a bit sad that I didn’t get to meet her in person.
Maningo was most pleasant. I never felt I couldn’t ask a question. He was keen at spotting game and giving details about most any wildlife situation. He provided a reference guide that was fascinating. He drove carefully and respectfully not only of his passengers but also of the environment. He found a school for us to visit in spite of the examinations that made a visit to the public school unavailable.
Nasibu was great. He was patient, attentive to our pace of hiking, and informative. Felt very comfortable with him.
Raymond was with us a short time on the return and again, I commend your organization for having outstanding staff members
The itinerary was perfect. We had hikes at just the right time. Visits to 2 different homes were interspersed to give variety and insight anticipation for the next move.”
