We would rate Maningo with 11s across the board if we could – he was wonderful! He has an impressive eye for identifying, tracking and spotting animals. Our first full day with him at Lake Manyara he spotted a group of lions in a bush that several other guides had missed. He taught us how to identify different types of gazelle and has an incredible knack for reading animal behavior. We were able to watch a lioness hunt and a wildebeest give birth thanks to his instincts. He told us he has been a safari guide for 15+ years and it shows, his driving and navigation skills were top notch. We encountered some muddy roads and never got stuck but did stop to help another vehicle that wasn’t so lucky. Most importantly to us, Maningo was very kind, friendly and personable. He tuned in to our personalities very quickly and we had the best time talking and joking around with him.
“I have found my interactions with the company , excellent , Casey was professional and very good at directing us in our itinerary, it is difficult from Australia with no previous knowledge of East Africa to understand what will work well for our family. We enjoyed the exposure to many different areas of Tanzania.
Our guides were friendly, lovely at supporting us and assisting with any small problems. Dave’s knowledge was exceptional and he found us all the usual animals but also was great at directing us to take a better photo or find me that amazing tree.
The suggestion to travel to Rwanda was fantastic and we would highly recommend this to families and others travelling. Norbert was lovely and we enjoyed the exposure to his incredible country.
We loved our time in Tanzania and Rwanda and would highly recommend Access 2 Tanzania.”
