Could not have wished for a better guide
We had an unforgettable, magical time in Tanzania and Ray is the main reason for this. We traveled with our 9-year old daughter and Ray had a sixth sense of what our needs were. Ray so clearly loves children, and we all connected very easily with him and loved spending time with him. We learned so much from him – about the wildlife we saw, but also about the country’s culture and language. He was always punctual and very patient with our tardiness, striking a perfect balance between just letting us be and pushing us at times to get up earlier so we could go for bigger outings. He was professional, respectful, and always positive. He was an excellent driver and we felt safe with him at all times. We wish we could have stayed for longer and miss him.
“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.”
