Adventure of a lifetime
Raymond was phenomenal! He insisted on picking us up, even though our flight arrived at 1:30AM and his enthusiasm was infectious from the minute we met him. He made our safari experience a trip of a lifetime with his in-depth knowledge, wonderful stories, and friendship. We love history and politics and Ray was a perfect match for us. His knowledge of Tanzania’s rich history as well as its current sociopolitical landscape, made for great discussions every day! In addition, his driving was fantastic and we always felt safe with him at the helm. He always went above and beyond to make the trip memorable in little ways. For example, when I had mentioned in passing that I would love to try Chipsi mayai, he secretly went to the chef at a camp we were staying at and asked them to make it for me one evening. We would highly recommend Ray to others travelers using Access to Tanzania!
“Access2Tanzania did a great job planning our trip to Rwanda and Tanzania. Very knowledgeable, good guides, etc.
Overall everyone had a great time and this will be a vacation we will all remember forever!
We almost always plan our own trips and it was nice to have someone else plan. There were a few surprises that we didn’t love, though, Zanzibar itinerary being the main one, and too many game drives in Tanzania – see more feedback below. Had we done our own research and planning we would have likely discovered these things ahead of time but did choose to rely on the experts.
There were a couple of accommodations that could have been better. Would have been nice to have options like for another $200/pp you could stay at x hotel in this place, etc.”
