Amazing trip with an amazing guide and an amazing company.
We loved David. He was a great fit for our group. His sense of humor, knowledge, experience was amazing. We were very impressed by his ability to read our mood and adjust on the fly to provide the best experience possible. A couple of afternoons we were dragging, David noticed and adjusted by picking up the pace and eventually getting us back to the lodge a little earlier than we had planned in the day before. I loved how he made real efforts to show us specific things we wanted to see. Sometimes it was obvious he was making effort (like driving North to see the great migration) but other times it wasn’t so obvious (which was great). For instance, Melissa wanted to see water monitors so any time we cross a creek David would stop to look; but there was another time we took a short side-trip to an area that on a sunny day probably had a good deal of monitors; however it wasn’t a sunny day and David likely knew we wouldn’t see anything but he made the effort all the same. To me, it showed that he understood what we wanted and tried his best to make it happen for us.
“Karen did a wonderful job with our itinerary. We exchanged very many emails over many weeks before we arrived at the final version and all the time Karen was very responsive. Within Tanzania the organisaion was just as efficient. On the few occassions the unexpected occurred we found the people on the ground very attentive and quick to respond. A2T’s expert and personalised service gave us the experience we had dreamed of.”
