Awesome trip with Access 2 Tanzania and Raymond!
Our guide, Raymond, was the highlight of our trip. When you are traveling to a country such as Tanzania with the goal of seeing lots of wildlife, your trip is completely dependent on your tour guide. We really lucked out to get a courteous, knowledgeable, and fun guide in Raymond. We felt completely safe as he was a very good driver and we saw so much wildlife as Raymond was often the one that would spot the animals. One of the days, Raymond was the one that spotted a cheetah with five cubs on a hunt and notified other tour guides so others could see the amazing action that we were watching. We felt that we had not only a guide, but a new friend in Raymond.
“Top notch! Everything was well planned. The lodging was amazing. My favorite was Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge. It was located about 8000 feet in a very lush forest, constructed of river rock and polished African hardwoods – absolutely beautiful! The website pictures of all the places we stayed looked nice but the actual experience of staying at these places was well beyond expectations. Whenever we went to a new destination there was always some one to greet us, take us to our hotels, airport, etc.
Access 2 Tanzania attended to every detail including all the arrangements for our post-safari extension to Zanzibar. The hotels provided great breakfasts and dinners and even the boxed lunches we ate out in the “bush” were pretty decent. Our guide, Maningo, was excellent. He truly wanted all of us to have the best African experiences. If we ever travel to Africa in the future, Access 2 Tanzania will be our first choice.”
