Amazing Trip to Tanzania
Ray, was phenomenal. He has 14 years of experience and knows the area like his palm. It was amazing to see that he was more excited than us to see and observe Serengeti. He showed us pretty much everything there to see (e.g., lions, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos, wildebeest immigration), but more importantly, he deeply understood animal behavior and patterns. We not only had the chance to observe those beautiful animals in their natural environment but also learned a lot from him. Ray also has always been very respectful and caring of the animals. Occasionally, I saw guides cornering or unnecessarily disturbing an animal while competing with each other to make their clients happy. Ray never did that. Instead, he often took us to locations where we could observe a shy animal, like a cheetah, without any other safari Jeep around. He was also a wonderful person and an excellent company.
“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.”
