Excellent! Noel was so kind and knowledgeable. He could sense when we were tired and ready to go home for the day, so he would give us options. He was always on time or ahead of our start time. He was very kind with us when we were running a few minutes late at breakfast. He was personable. Truly a wonderful human and a great guide.
He had answers to 99% of our questions, and if he didn’t know, he seemed to have looked it up and followed up with us the next day. It was very cool that he remembered all of this.
He navigated the parks so well, we were shocked at how he memorized the landscape of each place so well!!
He always had our lunches packed up and we were mesmerized by the fact that we only were with him to fill up gas once!
He seemed to have a great rapport with many of the other guides and that helped him guide us to key animal sightings.
He was a great driver. He went fast when we needed to get somewhere, but he was always cautious, often stopping to let other cars go around us if needed.
“It was excellent! The pre-trip planning with Karen was great and she and/or Allison promptly answered my many questions at various points prior to our actual trip. Also, Karen was extremely helpful in making our final day in Tanzania as comfortable as possible – she arranged for us to spend the afternoon in the Arusha Access 2 Tanzania day room. Our transport guide for the day, Haji, brought us a wonderful selection of Tanzanian food for lunch! He as well as Stella and the A2T staff were very nice and welcoming! Our safari guide Noel was such a good man and an excellent guide. He was thrilled to learn that we had requested him at the recommendation of my friend, and he didn’t disappoint. I don’t know how anyone can navigate the unmarked Serengeti roads like he did. He made sure that we were comfortable, safe, and had everything that we needed. During the trip, another A2T guide, David, and his 2 passengers (whom we previously met during the village tour) invited us into their land cruiser to watch the wildebeest crossing because they had a better position. We really appreciated that!”
