We are so grateful to Fulgence, our guide for the two weeks we were on safari. He was quite informed on the history of Tanzania and the cultures of the many tribes of the country; his thorough knowledge of the flora and fauna of each of the regions we visited, his keen insights into the habitats and movements of the animals, and his incomparable sense of delightful humor and patience in dealing with us as guests in his country, not only made each day such a pleasure to look forward to, but also wonderful evenings to talk about all that we had seen and learned. We cannot imagine what our safari might have been like without Fulgence’s daily presence and guidance.
“Outstanding. Taking a safari with a group of 6 people, ages 13- 76, four of whom have never been to Africa, requires a lot of logistics and planning. Casey was super thorough (and patient) in answering all of our questions. Itinerary planning was surprisingly easy because he listened to what we wanted, and his first draft was super close to our final draft. We loved hearing that folks who work for Access (Wilfred, Juma) really respect what the company is doing with the community through Project Zawadi and how they are treated as employees. All of the materials sent in advance (packing materials, itineraries, visa instructions, phone calls, videos) made us feel super prepared. Casey went above and beyond to cover a transfer in Zanzibar and recommend places to stay. Logistics on the ground were literally seamless. Wilfred is incredibly professional, organized, knowledgeable, kind, and fun. He was mindful of everyone’s needs and consistently checked in to make sure we were good. He went above and beyond in helping my aunt, who needs some mobility support.”
