All you can dream of and MORE!!
Nasibu was perfect – and set it up so next “viewing” was a surprise and better than the last!
Full of information, confident, and even keeled even in the midst of car/weather issues.
His personality added to the adventure, not distracted from it –
His driving ability was exceptional and he always got us to just the best place to see what was happening.
He was very sensitive to our needs and always checking to be sure we were doing well.
He always told us what to expect and what was expected of us when entering new situations – like the banana village and Masai village
The best part was his true enjoyment in watching the animals – did not seem like a job to him.
“Every detail was meticulously planned and perfectly suited to our needs. It was obvious that Karen paid careful attention to how we prefer to experience travel and matched us with a guide who perfectly suited our style. Barney was incredibly professional and let us set the tone and pace. He is an outstanding guide in so many ways; he quickly read us and we bonded immediately. Throughout the journey it was obvious that Barney is well respected by the other guides and they often follow his lead because he knows where to go and how to find the animals. He is also an incredible photographer–I got to a point where I just handed him my phone and he meticulously captured our trip. With no exaggeration, our 8 days with Barney were life changing and we think of him each and every day.
While we requested clean and comfortable accommodations with private baths, every place we stayed far exceeded our expectations. Nyikani and Mara Mara were the standout favorites. I have spoken with folks who were unsure and had reservations about the food that would be provided. We ate incredibly well–food was more than plentiful, very good to extremely delicious, and the soups were the best I have ever eaten. Service was consistently exceptional.
Honestly, we can’t say enough positive things about our experience and have been recommending Access 2 Tanzania and Barney to all we can.”
