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.
“The trip organization by A2T was just wonderful. The safari expercience was fantastic. Our guide Said is a great guy, very professional and experienced.
We want to thank a lot Access2Tanzania team, specially Casey and Said, who made the experience even better. Thank A2T for all the attention and suggestions.
Ngorongoro/Manyara/Nudtu/Serengeti were absolutely great! The tips regarding money exchange, tipping, clothes, schedules etc. were also very accurate. Said exceeded our expectations. He was very patient and careful with Pedro (our 3yr old son), who liked him a lot, too.”
