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.
