Elly is the Greatest Of All Time :-)
This was my third Safari (Kenya, South Africa and this time Tanzania) and I never had such a knowledgeable, devoted, helpful and genuinely caring guide as Elly. He had an in depth knowledge of all the animals and birds we saw (and we saw them all), impeccable manners, was always calm and patient (even in the face of our very challenging teenager’s behaviour and moods at times). He also has superb driving skills (safe on the road but very advanced off road driving skills in the Serengeti which saved us several times from getting stuck for hours in the mud). We always felt safe and listened to at all times.
“You did a great job making sure you understood what kind of trip we wanted while planning our itinerary, and I was just as impressed when we got to Tanzania. I feel that the guide can often “make or break” a safari– and I felt Said did a great job. He spotted many animals and did not rely on radio contacts with other guides.”
