Excellent, first-rate!
Maningo has a deft touch, both in interpersonal relations (his great sense of humor, and ability to imitate American accents helped) and in sensing the group’s interests and needs. If I had to make a criticism, I’d note our occasional frustration as to where he was taking us on game drives; at times we would have liked to know that, “we’re driving down near the river, hoping to see X or Y,” but I’m pretty sure he was reluctant to spell out his plans because he didn’t want us to get our hopes up.
Talking to travellers we met I felt most of them thought THEIR guide the best in the business; with Maningo, I’m pretty sure he really WAS one such guide!
“From the moment I met Brian at a local travel show, I knew that Access 2 Tanzania was the tour operator for us. His extensive experience in Tanzania and involvement with Project Zawadi immediately instilled a sense of trust
The planning process was easy. You listened to our preferences, immediately responded to all of our questions, and provided us with valuable travel advice. The accommodations were beautiful, comfortable, and offered outstanding hospitality.
Our guide, Elly, was amazing! His professionalism and expertise allowed us to experience all of the wildlife at the five national parks we visited. In addition, he provided us insight into the traditions and customs of Moshi and the Maasai. By the end of our tour, Elly felt like a member of the family.”
