Ray’s cheerful, easygoing, easy to laugh personality was the perfect pairing for our traveling party. We appreciated his expertise in driving, locating game, knowledge of the various parks, ability to jockey for the best viewing positions, and cultural knowledge. Ray knows all the parks and where to find the animals.

Ray was also a problem solver. I managed to twist my knee the 2nd night in Tanzania. Ray got elastic bandages, muscle ointment and ice for me. When one of the lodges made a mistake in bookings, Ray got it fixed too.

“Excellent. From the beginning, Karen helped us design a custom trip that fit our interests. For example, my partner is very interested in birds. We got birds. We were interested in avoiding crowds. We did, as much as possible. And the choice of Mkomazi was ideal. There were remarkably few glitches along the way, and Joachim addressed each of them with calm professionalism. The trip was as close to perfect as we could have imagined. From Karen’s initial consultations to Joachim’s expert guiding, we could not have asked for more.”
