Raymond was an absolute pleasure to travel with. Forever we will hear him saying “Let’s Rrrrrock and Rrrroll!” and “Life is good!” and “My friends….” phrases that punctuated our journey and made us smile. His guidance, attitude, pace and delightful personality were nothing but a pleasure to travel with. He is a patient Swahili instructor, knowledgable nature guide, enthusiastic animal and bird watcher, and excellent driver. We cannot recommend him enough and hope that he will also be the guide for the Levin family when they travel in June for their safari.

“It was excellent! The pre-trip planning with Karen was great and she and/or Allison promptly answered my many questions at various points prior to our actual trip. Also, Karen was extremely helpful in making our final day in Tanzania as comfortable as possible – she arranged for us to spend the afternoon in the Arusha Access 2 Tanzania day room. Our transport guide for the day, Haji, brought us a wonderful selection of Tanzanian food for lunch! He as well as Stella and the A2T staff were very nice and welcoming! Our safari guide Noel was such a good man and an excellent guide. He was thrilled to learn that we had requested him at the recommendation of my friend, and he didn’t disappoint. I don’t know how anyone can navigate the unmarked Serengeti roads like he did. He made sure that we were comfortable, safe, and had everything that we needed. During the trip, another A2T guide, David, and his 2 passengers (whom we previously met during the village tour) invited us into their land cruiser to watch the wildebeest crossing because they had a better position. We really appreciated that!”
