Perfect safari with Fulgence
Fulgence was an amazing guide, and I will definitely request him if I’m able to do another safari. He is extremely knowledgeable about wildlife and taught us a lot about the interactions between various animals, plants, and soil conditions across seasons/parks. He also has a great respect for all of the animals – he would even avoid hitting dung beetles in the road. Finally, we had a lot of fun with him. Fulgence is hilarious, and we spent a lot of time laughing. I noticed that many groups using other companies didn’t eat meals with their guide, but we loved eating meals with Fulgence, talking about Tanzanian culture and practicing our Swahili (he was very patient with us, and we had many laughs when one of us would misunderstand something and give a bizarre answer). I can’t imagine a better guide for our safari.
“My trip to Tanzania was the first time I went on a trip that I didn’t plan myself. It was daunting trying to decide on a trip operator solely by using the internet because I don’t personally know anyone who had been to TZ. Emails with Karen were answered promptly and our first phone call really put me at ease. The A2T website was easy to navigate and between that and my own internet research I rarely felt the need to reach out to ask questions. It was great to get an itinerary from Karen, who knew TZ so well. I liked that A2T had a small focus so I know that they had a deep understanding of the options. This was also the most expensive trip I had ever taken and I didn’t want to make any big mistakes that would diminish our experience. Lastly, this trip was particularly special because I was bringing my 2 adult children and I have no idea when we will be able to travel together again. It was important for me to plan a memorable and enjoyable trip.”
