Our best safari of all time by far
This was our second time with both A2T and Willy. On our first trip, he was great — really took care of us, found what we wanted to see, and made for a super-smooth and exciting safari. This time he even surpassed that. He not only would find what we wanted to see, but get us in the best position for experiencing and photographing it. He’s a pleasure to be with and always attentive to our needs, whether expressed or not. He has a great sense of what animals are going to do next and to put us in spots for the best view. For example, the last river crossing we had was at sunset, with the sunset in the background, and the wildebeest coming up the bank next to us. Another was observing a pride of 10 lions with 9 cubs, 5 of whom had to swim a pond in order to get to their returning moms to suckle — we were in the middle of the action and NOT disturbing them at all.
“Outstanding, from the extensive help and advice we got from Casey O’Connell before the trip to our guide Maningo’s astute managing of our day-to-day safari, and from the folks who worked at the hotels, lodges, and tent camps we stayed in during our Tanzania adventure to the wonderful animals themselves, who never disappointed–all in all an incredible experience.”
