Amazing trip of a lifetime!
Nasibu was a VERY EXPERT driver on difficult terrain. We felt very safe with him. He was able to spot animals with the simplest clues of faraway flicks of ears in the grass! We had some unique experiences enabling us to see some beautiful and elusive animals up close, including cheetahs, leopards, and lions. His sense of timing was great – we were able to see a lion hunt (from a bit of a distance) and we were able to see a MASSIVE (thousands at one site) migration of wildebeests – we waited perhaps a half hour or so before seeing the first wildebeests crossing (we understand that many wait all day to see this). Because of his skill and expertise, we saw so many wonderful animals up close and personal. Nasibu was also so respectful of animals, and especially not to overcrowd them because that could mean the difference between a successful hunt for prey or not.
“You did a great job making sure you understood what kind of trip we wanted while planning our itinerary, and I was just as impressed when we got to Tanzania. I feel that the guide can often “make or break” a safari– and I felt Said did a great job. He spotted many animals and did not rely on radio contacts with other guides.”
