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.
“Everything about my experience has been a 10/10! From my initial conversation with Brian at the LA Travel Expo, to working with Karen on the itinerary, Willy picking me up at the airport in the middle of the night, Elly picking me up in Arusha and taking care of me for the day and the Arusha team making me feel so welcome at the office and sharing a meal.
Everything and everyone was extremely professional, well organized, welcoming and a 10/10 in terms of experience!”
