Great Gratitude for Elly and Access 2 Tanzania

Elly was fantastic. He’s simply a marvelous human. He helped us with our Swahili, helped us negotiate language and social situations in the town where we had spent our early childhood (Shirati, Rorya District, Mara). He noticed that I was interested in trees and plants, so he made it a point to show us plants and name the trees. He stopped for every bird we wanted to see. He was tireless in helping us find lions and leopards and elephants, etc. He entered our banter and became our friend. Also, he’s an incredible driver.

I should also mention Noel, who drove us around Arusha on our first day. He, too, was a marvelous guide and a great driver.

“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.”
