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.
“Excellent staff. Casey was extremely responsive in planning the trip. I had certain things I did and didn’t want to do, he tailored our experience accordingly (and with keeping our budget in mind). The trip was perfectly proportioned, mostly because of him. Our guide on the ground, Wilfred, spent 12 days with us. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. We became comfortable companions, easily sitting together in silence over long drives or telling stories during dinner. He didn’t wait for us to ask something, he anticipated our needs. When he saw we didn’t finish our lunch boxes, he asked us what we liked and didn’t like. He made sure to relay the information to the hotels and we finished out lunches going forward. He saw I had an itch to get into the Wildebeest migration. Even though it was far away and our chances of finding it could be small, he made sure it happened. The staff set everything apart, especially when we compared it to our tour companies we saw in the area.”
