Barney was absolutely extraordinary in finding and spotting all of the animals that we were excited to see and experience up close, very often before any other guides were aware or present. On one of our days he took us on truly memorable journey to the western Serengeti to see the Great Migration. Barney has a true enthusiasm for and deep knowledge of all of the wildlife, as well as about local culture and history, and he is an excellent teacher in this regard. He is wise, patient (stopping while we took endless photos along the way), has a warm sense of humor (including with our fledgling attempts at speaking Swahili), and shares of himself and his own experiences very generously. Overall, it was an incredible experience, and we would enthusiastically recommend Access 2 Tanzania (and Barney!) to anyone considering such a trip!
“We have worked with various tour organizers in multiple countries over the years, and we all agree that A2T is the best we’ve experienced to date. They provided an excellent itinerary and helpful advice, ensuring we had great places to stay. The abundance of resources, including links to videos and other helpful information, made us feel well-prepared for our journey.
The guides from A2T were outstanding. We had three guides in total, with David being our primary guide. We also encountered several others at various lunch stops throughout the trip. One notable highlight was that we always had a cooler filled with cold water—something we struggled to find in other countries.
All the guides were friendly and exceptional. By the end of our trip, David felt like family to us, and we cherished our daily interactions with him. We truly could not find any negatives or areas for improvement with A2T on this trip.”
