Maningo was absolutely great. He is very competent and knows birds and mammals equally well. He was very patient and did everything he could to accommodate us. He worked very hard to find mammals, and get us into position to take good photos. We had a 7 month old baby with us and Maningo adored her. If we needed to stop for a diaper change, Maningo accommodated our needs. The baby worked out just great. Sometimes when we were viewing lions the baby cried briefly. That woke up the lions so we could take pictures before the lions went back to sleep. Thanks to Maningo we did see the big 5, including 3 leopards the last day.
“Excellent planning and preparation. So many things could have gone wrong. Thanks to Access 2 Tanzania’s tireless work in paying attention to detail everything worked very smoothly. From the time we met Maningo at the airport in Kilimanjaro till we took off in a 14 seater airplane from the Serengeti plains there was not one snafu. We were greeted at every camp site by someone who knew who we were. We were given lodging instructions and checked in with out a problem. The food was very good and even though we ate salad greens no one got sick. Our driver/guide, Maningo always had bottles of water for us on game drives. Maningo washed the land cruiser every night so we never had a dirty vehicle.”
