We can’t say enough positive things about our guide Barney. He was knowledgeable, friendly, interested in our questions and opinions and managed to pique our interest in things that we didn’t know we wanted to know about. Despite some long days, he was always enthusiastic and prepared for the next adventure and was a particularly apt role model of hakuna matata. He was a skillful driver over some very bumpy roads, even as he scouted out wildlife hiding both near and far. We learned a lot about Tanzanian culture and recent history from him, as well as animal, plant and insect habitats and their symbiotic relationship. He did an excellent job creating special moments for us and gave us a glimpse into how people live and work during our brief stay in Arusha. He was a comfortable and fun person to be around and our friends and family have heard many Barney stories as we’ve shared tales from our trip. Asante sana, Barney.
“Casey was great to work with. He always had the answers to our questions and got back to us quickly. He gave us lots of suggestions and tips things to think about that were very useful too. The pre-trip call with Casey was very helpful too. It helped ease whatever concerns we had and answered all our last-minute questions so we felt prepared for our trip. Some other things A2T helped with were details to use when filling out the Visa forms. With their info it was straightforward. They gave us guidance on exchanging money, asked what kind of soda we liked, took our dietary restrictions into account for the various camps we stayed at. All things big and small they helped us with.”
