Asante Sana the Great Maningo!
Maningo was easy-going and fun to be around. He was skillful at spotting the wildlife, and extremely patient in waiting for certain behaviors (like lions coming together to mate!). He drove us in the various parks for many hours a day (often 10-11!), and worked to try to find cheetahs in particular, driving in remote regions of Tarangire. He drove quite slowly, searching for wildlife, which took some adjusting to, but when we had a long travel day driving from the Serengeti to Ngorongoro, he pushed the pedal to the metal! He’s a skillful driver on those terrible roads! Amongst all the rattling noises of the Land Rover, he distinguished a particular noise that was new, and took it to a mechanic in Karatu to have it checked. It turned out there was a part that had broken and needed welding. Thank goodness he followed his instinct, or we may have gotten stranded! We are very grateful to Maningo for an incredible experience.
“We were very impressed with the service we received from Access 2 Tanzania. Casey provided us great recommendations for accommodations and the overall itinerary based on our stated desires. Our expectations were exceeded in every way. We especially appreciated the service and ability of our guide Fulgence. He was not only a superb guide, but also a wonderful person. We learned so much and had a memorable time.”
