Friendly and willing to share
Raymond was very knowledgeable about wildlife, since he has a two year degree in this area. He was friendly and willing to share. He works hard and long hours. He could sense when to give people quiet time. He is a safe a courteous driver. Having a safe driver was important to us after having spent a prior week experiencing how driving can be in Tanzania. He knew the parks well and could spot wildlife that others might not see. He got us in position to see a stalk by a cheetah and then got us in a new position to see the kill by this same cheetah, which took skill to know where the cheetah would be going and to get there without spooking the kill. Every morning he brought us a cleaned up vehicle, which had to be difficult considering the dusty environment. He dressed professionally, and spoke highly of his employer as a good company that takes care of its employees, its customers and gives back to the poor in Tanzania.
“We are so happy we ultimately chose Access 2 Tanzania as our tour operator. I loved that the guides were all staff members and knew each other. The initiatives to give back to the local community was a big plus for us in choosing A2T. I also liked that it’s a smaller company so I felt the experience we got was completely customized to what we wanted. Everything from the initial sales call to the trip was just so easy and seamless. I will highly recommend A2T to anyone looking to do a trip and hopefully one day will be able to come back ourselves. Africa is a truly special place that we will never forget.”
