Both Ray and Elly very professional at all times and exuded passion for their work. They were highly knowledgeable about the “Big Five” and other animals, including their behavior, habitats, and how to track them. They were exceptional, it’s thanks to the guide’s keen eyes and spotting ability we got to see the Big Five! They were very professional, making you feel like you were traveling with a friend ultimately making experience more exciting and memorable! They shared information about Tanzania’s history, culture, and the different national parks. They communicated clearly, answered questions readily, and build rapport with everyone; they became part of our group! Since we had 2 camera men, they were always patient allowing ample time for observation and photography, and catered to specific interests and preferences. They really made the experience more unforgettable! They even laughed everytime I asked to “pet the lions belly”.
“Karen was always ready to listen and address our questions. She has a warm friendly way of connecting with us. I am a bit sad that I didn’t get to meet her in person.
Maningo was most pleasant. I never felt I couldn’t ask a question. He was keen at spotting game and giving details about most any wildlife situation. He provided a reference guide that was fascinating. He drove carefully and respectfully not only of his passengers but also of the environment. He found a school for us to visit in spite of the examinations that made a visit to the public school unavailable.
Nasibu was great. He was patient, attentive to our pace of hiking, and informative. Felt very comfortable with him.
Raymond was with us a short time on the return and again, I commend your organization for having outstanding staff members
The itinerary was perfect. We had hikes at just the right time. Visits to 2 different homes were interspersed to give variety and insight anticipation for the next move.”
