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.
“Extraordinary! Staff planned this safari down to the minute details, keeping us regularly informed of everything we needed to bring and know. Superior attention to detail. Not enough good can be said about the incredible guides: Nasibu, Noel, Wilfred and Fulgence. They were patient, courteous, kind and attentive to all our needs. They were extremely knowledgeable about every living thing in the parks. They could spot the flicker of a lion’s ear half a mile away. They drove to every corner of the park where they knew we would see remarkable animals and events like mating, kills, and migrations. It was stunning.”
