It was everything we wanted
Wilfred (or Chillfred as my kids referred to him) was great. Very knowledgeable and accommodating – extremely professional. Even when our jeep broke down in the middle of the Serengeti with no one around – that man knows his stuff. How he jerryrigged the shocks for the vehicle was inspiring to behold. Used a guidebook to help us identify certain birds and animals. He listened to us and allowed us our own space. Had a keen eye – communicated with other drivers often. We were very happy with him as our guide – felt safe in his care and tremendously appreciated his time with us.
“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.”
