Perfect!
I can’t say enough about Willy. He was 100% reliable and made us feel totally safe. He was a safe driver, negotiating difficult roads. He had an eagle eye for animal viewing, always arranging the jeep for the best photo opportunities. Beyond his high level of competence, he was gracious and warm, funny and helpful, and just great to spend two weeks with. He “read” us well, instinctively knowing when we wanted to interact, and when we wanted a little quiet time. He was ethical, helpful and thoughtful. My husband walked away from the safari saying that Willy might be the finest man he has ever met.
“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.”
