Perfect Safari, Great Guide
I can’t imagine a better guide than Maningo. In addition to being extremely fun to be around and enjoyable to talk to, he was totally organized and punctual and knew everything we needed to know as we progressed through the safari. He ensured that every step of the trip went smoothly and that we didn’t have to second guess anything or keep track of all the details, enabling us to focus on the wildlife and relaxing in the evenings. Finally, Maningo’s knowledge of wildlife, his ability to spot animals, and his enthusiasm for the environment were also extremely valuable and enhanced our safari tremendously.
“Excellent staff. Casey was extremely responsive in planning the trip. I had certain things I did and didn’t want to do, he tailored our experience accordingly (and with keeping our budget in mind). The trip was perfectly proportioned, mostly because of him. Our guide on the ground, Wilfred, spent 12 days with us. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. We became comfortable companions, easily sitting together in silence over long drives or telling stories during dinner. He didn’t wait for us to ask something, he anticipated our needs. When he saw we didn’t finish our lunch boxes, he asked us what we liked and didn’t like. He made sure to relay the information to the hotels and we finished out lunches going forward. He saw I had an itch to get into the Wildebeest migration. Even though it was far away and our chances of finding it could be small, he made sure it happened. The staff set everything apart, especially when we compared it to our tour companies we saw in the area.”
