We feel we got the best guide in Tanzania. Every day, Mr. Maningo asked us what we wanted to see, and then he would find it. He loves to laugh and joke. He left his wife and newborn child in the hospital to fulfill his obligation to us. He knows how to network with other drivers to find the great sights of the Serengeti. He has the patience of Job in tracking and waiting; he is sensitive about when we want to continue watching something and when we had enough. He is mature and very experienced. When we got a flat tire, he changed it with minimal fuss (fortunately no lions about!). If he ever gets vexed, he doesn’t show it. If we wanted to head out at sunrise or be the last straggler out of the crater to catch the rhinos, he was agreeable. A great person to spend a week with.

“If you’re looking for a doorway into the world of Tanzania’s parks and wildlife, look no further! We’re very happy with our experience with A2T. From Casey’s initial response to the final itinerary, Casey helped us plan a memorable and exciting trip, asking many questions, listening to our feedback and changing things as necessary. He and Karen provided timely service and essential information about traveling to Tanzania and life on safari. Their lists, videos, and visa instructions were so helpful. Our itinerary was very well calibrated, so that each camp and park experience was different from the other, becoming progressively more exciting and magical in totally different ways! The transfer from the Seronera Airport to Stone Town was seamless, despite our bittersweet kwaheri to the mainland and Barney. Casey recommended we stay at Rivertrees Inn in Arusha on arrival, which was a good call for a soft landing after a long couple days of international travel. Thank you for helping us plan an incredible adventure!”
