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.

“Access 2 Tanzania was fabulous, accommodating, and kind. Casey planned our trip but he also served as a therapist to us in some ways! My husband was nervous to travel to Africa, especially with our two kids but Casey spent a great amount of time walking us through everything and assuring us that we would be safe and that anything we needed would be taken care of. Casey was also always available for every crazy and detailed question we had. He was extremely patient with us and we thoroughly enjoyed all of the detailed information he provided us. It made us feel so much more relaxed about the trip.”
