Our group of 20 had four wonderful guides: Noel, Fulgence, Wilfred, and Nasibu. Each was a gem–excellent drivers, unbelievable spotters of wildlife. In addition, Noel was kindness personified, with a smile to light up the world. Fulgence served as a group spark-plug, getting as excited about seeing an animal as we did (and he sweetly accommodated my wish to get to church services on Good Friday). Wilfred was a planner, able to predict where the animals were going and actually arriving there before they did; he was always patient. Nasibu was as deeply versed in the the wildlife and topography as the other three and was the best dancer. Several of us actually cried at Kilimanjaro Airport when said good bye to four wonderful men.
“The staff was outstanding before, during and after the trip. Karen did a great job in planning the itinerary and working around several changes in flight schedules. Raymond was a phenomenal guide and we all greatly enjoyed his company. He was knowledgeable on all aspects of the safari as well as Tanzania itself. The staff at all lodging sites was wonderful. Facilities in all cases exceeded our expectations.”
