It would be difficult to imagine a better guide for our trip than Barney, who met us at the airport upon our arrival and was with us throughout the trip. Barney was absolutely extraordinary in finding and spotting all of the animals that we were excited to see and experience up close, very often before any other guides were aware or present. He also has a true enthusiasm for and deep knowledge of all of the wildlife, as well as about local culture and history, and he is an excellent teacher in this regard. He is wise, patient (stopping while we took endless photos along the way), has a warm sense of humor (including with our fledgling attempts at speaking Swahili), and shares of himself and his own experiences very generously. Barney was simply the best guide one could imagine for a journey such as this.
“Karen was very helpful in planning our trip and we could not have asked for it to turn out any better. Going to Africa on a Safari had been on my bucket list since I was in high school. And they went over and above to make my dream come true. It was the most amazing trip I have ever been on. I love the way they set up our campsites from primitive to luxury. I loved every camp we went too. The first and second was a little scary from time to time hearing the roaring, screaming and chatting throughout the night from the elephants, lions, zebras and hyenas. I would not have changed one thing about the trip. And then when we got to Zanzibar at The Baraza Resort it was absolutely beautiful and the staff was over the top very friendly and was there to take care of us the entire trip. We felt like kings and queens. We went into Stone Town one day and really enjoyed that tour, and of course shopping. I would definitely recommend them for your trip to Tanzania.”
