Personable, knowledgeable guide! Highly recommend.
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.
“Access 2 Tanzania was awesome! Visiting Africa and going on Safari was on my bucket list and A2T fulfilled it completely. My husband likes spontaneity but I insist on long term planning so when my husband told me he wanted to go to Tanzania in just over 3 weeks I laughed. Two days later he came to me with a plan that Casey and he put together. I was dumb-founded. It was not a canned tour planned by A2T for a group. It was a private itinerary planned by my husband and Casey to accommodate exactly what WE wanted to do and where WE wanted to go. We left for Tanzania 3 weeks later! Amazing!
We changed plans many times after the initial plan and Casey was very patient and accommodated us with no resistance. Casey always had answers to our questions and gave us recommendations that we would never had thought of. A2T didn’t just give ‘lip service’ they provided what they said they would and told us what they could not. I questioned this because they offer so many wonderful options and I wondered what we would actually get when we arrived. Another thing I was pleased with is that during our planning Casey did not constantly try to ‘up sell’ us.
‘Wilfred’ was our guide and he was wonderful. He is such a nice, good and fun person. We felt so lucky to have him. That said, we spoke to others from A2T and they also felt the same about their guides so it is clear A2T chooses their guides carefully. (We still feel lucky to have Wilfred throughout our safari!)
I wish I could remember the names of all the others that we met and who helped us from A2T. We didn’t run into one bad seed. It’s been 5 months since we returned from Africa and although the names are not clear in my mind the warm, wonderful and exciting feeling of Africa will never fade.
If you have the opportunity to go to Africa go with Access 2 Tanzania! AMAZING!!”
