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.
“It was my second time within 7 years, that I did a safari with A2T. Both times, I was very satisfied about the consulting, the organisation and the safari itself. A2T knows how the world goes in Tanzania. Beside the consulting also the guide and the equipment (vehicle, binoculars etc.) was very good. The chosen Lodges were also as expected (mix bungalows and tent)”
