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.
“I felt like I made the right choice! I wanted a company that had its own guides and vehicles and didn’t subcontract out. That made a difference, because our guide was experienced and invested in our trip. Everything was well organized and exceeded my expectations. I felt that there was attention to detail and we always felt comfortable and safe.”
