A great guide makes the trip, and Fulgence is that
Fulgence was an amazing guide and a wonderful person to be around. In terms of being an excellent guide: we would come back to camp telling people what we had seen that day, and they would always say we were so lucky. After a few days of this, we realized it couldn’t just be luck, but also Fulgence’s knowledge and skill that made it possible. Some of it may be good karma for him as well, since he was always the one to stop and help others who were stuck in the mud, give directions to other lost guides, or even give water and cash to people who’s car had broken down at the side of the road. Every single question we asked him about the animals or Tanzania he knew the answer to. We learned so much in our 9 days with him. Amazing, amazing trip that is mainly due to Fulgence. I would highly recommend him to anyone traveling to Tanzania.
“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.”
