In many respects, Wilfred was the perfect guide for us. I don’t know if that was by luck of the draw or by some behind-the-scene planning. Our desire was to be out on Safari for as much of the day as possible and to learn as much about the animals/country/culture as we could. He essentially planned the details and timing of each day accordingly and gladly answered all our questions as well as provided other knowledge along the way, which we greatly appreciated. We found him accommodating and patient. He was always willing to move the vehicle to different spots to aid in better photo ops. His ability to spot animals in the wild was highly impressive. He found animals that we easily would have missed if left to our own devices. We realize he has been doing this awhile but, nonetheless, we still can’t believe some of the animals he spotted. Finally, beyond executing really well on his official duty, Wilfred is a really good person and we enjoyed spending our Safari time with him.
“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.”
