Review of Elly
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.
“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.”
