Raymond: All round good sport
Ray was exceptional in service and knowledge as well as being an all round good sport. He was aways on time, (even when we were not :-)). He was an excellent driver and took the time to think through various obstacles that came up and then make a decision based on his experience and it seemed to work out without any problems. He could be a little reserved at times but he has a 9 year old daughter and a 3 year old son, as well as his wife is in nursing school and away from their kids, so I appreciate that he misses his kids. It made our experience and connection more real and not just about seeing wildlife. Overall, I was pleased with his performance as a guide.
“A2T is a first-rate safari company who really listens to get a handle on what you want from a safari/trip to Tanzania and works hard to provide a final itinerary within your budget, even if it takes multiple drafts. We appreciate that they are relatively small, and focus just on Tanzania, so they know their product really well. An added plus for us is how ethically they manage their business — they employ their guides all year round and will not use guides from the outside — if a time period fills up and all guides are assigned, then it is full. It was important to us that A2T uses some of its resources to help the Tanzanian people through Project Zawadi. It is even more impressive to understand just how much of a priority this project is to the owners now that we have visited. We can’t imagine travelling with any other company.”
