Elly was professional, patient, friendly, funny, and a great person. Our entire family had a great time getting to know Elly and we had an amazing time with him the entire trip. His personality fit in with each individual from us parents to each of our three teenagers.

I don’t want to leave out our other A2T guides we spent time with. We spent a day with Haji walking through several Chaga villages and having lunch with Mama Grace. While our time with Haji was brief, he was great to get to know and spend time with as well. In just a few hours we built a strong connection with him and learned a lot about TZ and the people that live there.

We also spent one day of safari with Nasibu and had a very successful first game drive exploring Arusha National Park.

While the Safari experiences we had were great by themselves, I think the A2T guides made the difference and we feel like we made new friends and memories with them that we will cherish even more.

“What an amazing family experience. From the moment Willy picked us up at the airport to the moment he dropped us off we felt right at home. It’s hard to put into words the experience because it was truly life changing. You’d expect that we would say seeing lions (and boy did Willy the lion whisperer know how to find lions!) was the highlight. Don’t get me wrong that was wild! But our connection with Willy and doing things like visiting an orphanage and going to his house for a typical African dinner were outstanding. To have a little glimmer of how people in another country and culture live is to forage a lasting connection. We cried when we had to part with Willy because he had become family to us”
