Maningo is an amazing guide!! I can’t rate him highly enough!! From the moment our feet touched the ground in Tanzania to the moment we took off for Rwanda, Maningo effortlessly took care of every detail of our stay making our experience the absolute best it could be. He is extremely knowledgeable about the country, people and the animals and is generous about sharing his insights. He is also fun with a great sense of humor which kept us engaged and entertained during our dawn to dusk outings. He was happy to let us get every moment of every day on safari, more often than not, racing back to camp as darkness fell. It was with a heart full of thankfulness and sadness that we waved goodbye to Maningo after 8 magnificent days in Tanzania.
“It was excellent! The pre-trip planning with Karen was great and she and/or Allison promptly answered my many questions at various points prior to our actual trip. Also, Karen was extremely helpful in making our final day in Tanzania as comfortable as possible – she arranged for us to spend the afternoon in the Arusha Access 2 Tanzania day room. Our transport guide for the day, Haji, brought us a wonderful selection of Tanzanian food for lunch! He as well as Stella and the A2T staff were very nice and welcoming! Our safari guide Noel was such a good man and an excellent guide. He was thrilled to learn that we had requested him at the recommendation of my friend, and he didn’t disappoint. I don’t know how anyone can navigate the unmarked Serengeti roads like he did. He made sure that we were comfortable, safe, and had everything that we needed. During the trip, another A2T guide, David, and his 2 passengers (whom we previously met during the village tour) invited us into their land cruiser to watch the wildebeest crossing because they had a better position. We really appreciated that!”
