We loved our time with Elly! He was so personable, knowledgeable, and wanted to meet our needs. We had lots of questions and he would answer them. He would also share his books to point out more about the animals or trees. He was also good at talking to other guides to help them when needed and find animals for us. Twice another guide got stuck and he helped them. You can really tell Elly has a big heart and loves his job! We enjoyed eating meals with him and our conversations! He has a calm and caring presence! His knowledge and how he presented information to us was so valuable. He shared his story about the ties with Access 2 Tanzania. You can tell that he is a loyal, dedicated, and hardworking person. He shares many values that we do and we really enjoyed connecting with him. He truly made the safari experience outstanding!!! At dinners he would ask what the best part of the day was. All of us would think and share! We would then come up with the animals we wanted to see and he would help us devise the plan for the next day. His knowledge, communication, and English was great! I also enjoyed learning Swahili words from him and about the history of the Serengeti. I can’t speak highly enough about Elly and our amazing experience! You have a gem with him as a safari guide!
“Excellent planning and preparation. So many things could have gone wrong. Thanks to Access 2 Tanzania’s tireless work in paying attention to detail everything worked very smoothly. From the time we met Maningo at the airport in Kilimanjaro till we took off in a 14 seater airplane from the Serengeti plains there was not one snafu. We were greeted at every camp site by someone who knew who we were. We were given lodging instructions and checked in with out a problem. The food was very good and even though we ate salad greens no one got sick. Our driver/guide, Maningo always had bottles of water for us on game drives. Maningo washed the land cruiser every night so we never had a dirty vehicle.”
