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.
“We got other quotes, but Access was very competitive and we were drawn to their philosophy and the fact that the tour operation runs alongside a local charitable organization (Project Zawadi) that educates and sponsors orphans. They were excellent, and it was just Fiona, me and our guide, Maningo – who was GREAT!”
