We had 2 guides Noel and Joachim. They were phenomenal!! They were very tuned in to our groups wants and needs and everyday they met and exceeded our expectations. They were fun, interesting and super knowledgeable about the animals and culture of Tanzania. They went above and beyond to make our time with them amazing. Thanks to them and their guidance it was a trip of a lifetime and I would highly recommend them to my friends and family. We traveled in a group of 12 with 6 kids aged 7-17. The guides were excellent with the adults and kids. In fact we had a few days with all the kids in one jeep and they would always come back smiling and tell us of all the new animal facts they learned. Everyday we went out these guides went above and beyond to make sure we saw all the animals we desired to see. They were excellent at spotting even the most camouflaged animals. We feel like we have made lifelong friends in Joachim and Noel and look forward to hopefully having the opportunity to have another adventure with them in the future.
“It was excellent! The pre-trip planning with Karen was great and she and/or Allison promptly answered my many questions at various points prior to our actual trip. Also, Karen was extremely helpful in making our final day in Tanzania as comfortable as possible – she arranged for us to spend the afternoon in the Arusha Access 2 Tanzania day room. Our transport guide for the day, Haji, brought us a wonderful selection of Tanzanian food for lunch! He as well as Stella and the A2T staff were very nice and welcoming! Our safari guide Noel was such a good man and an excellent guide. He was thrilled to learn that we had requested him at the recommendation of my friend, and he didn’t disappoint. I don’t know how anyone can navigate the unmarked Serengeti roads like he did. He made sure that we were comfortable, safe, and had everything that we needed. During the trip, another A2T guide, David, and his 2 passengers (whom we previously met during the village tour) invited us into their land cruiser to watch the wildebeest crossing because they had a better position. We really appreciated that!”
