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 really pleased with A2T’s communication. They returned our phone call on a weekend and we had an itinerary a few days later. Casey was able to accommodate our four children (ages 10 and under) and that’s quite a feat! We read testimonials on TripAdvisor and pored over the A2T website as we became more excited about our trip. Casey spent a lot of time on the phone with us as we made travel decisions and sought advice on everything from what to pack to the timing of our international flights!”
