Father / Son trip of a lifetime
Willy made us feel safe and well cared for…this cannot be understated. This allowed us to relax and settle into the vacation. He planned ahead, communicated well, and adapted as needed. We expected to see lots of animals…which we did. But Willy consistently put us in situations that felt unique and special. He was great at anticipating animal movements, and put us in great position for photos. He even borrowed our camera to take unique pictures…especially with the Masai.
We had a challenging drive from Ndutu to the Serengeti due to rain and muddy roads. Willy kept his composure, despite difficult conditions, and allowed us to stay relaxed. He even stopped to provide assistance to another driver in need. We expected nothing less. A man of high character.
Finally, Willy is an interesting man, and brought a personal touch to the experience. He did a nice job of sharing cultural knowledge, and exposing us to life in Tanzania. He was a pleasure to spend time with…at meals and in the vehicle. We feel very fortunate to have spent the week with Willy.
“Excellent staff. Casey was extremely responsive in planning the trip. I had certain things I did and didn’t want to do, he tailored our experience accordingly (and with keeping our budget in mind). The trip was perfectly proportioned, mostly because of him. Our guide on the ground, Wilfred, spent 12 days with us. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. We became comfortable companions, easily sitting together in silence over long drives or telling stories during dinner. He didn’t wait for us to ask something, he anticipated our needs. When he saw we didn’t finish our lunch boxes, he asked us what we liked and didn’t like. He made sure to relay the information to the hotels and we finished out lunches going forward. He saw I had an itch to get into the Wildebeest migration. Even though it was far away and our chances of finding it could be small, he made sure it happened. The staff set everything apart, especially when we compared it to our tour companies we saw in the area.”
