Tanzania-a trip of a lifetime
David is a very experienced guide and his skill at locating and showing us excellent photo opportunities, wildlife encounters and amazing views was evident. David went out of his way to ensure we had a memorable trip and made some alterations to our itinerary that were above and beyond.
We had one major breakdown and my impression of the guide or company relates not to the event (which happens to anyone) but to the way it was handled. David made sure that our day went on roughly as planned and that we were able to see the migration as hoped.
“Excellent staff. Casey was extremely responsive in planning the trip. I had certain things I did and didn’t want to do, he tailored our experience accordingly (and with keeping our budget in mind). The trip was perfectly proportioned, mostly because of him. Our guide on the ground, Wilfred, spent 12 days with us. We couldn’t have asked for someone better. We became comfortable companions, easily sitting together in silence over long drives or telling stories during dinner. He didn’t wait for us to ask something, he anticipated our needs. When he saw we didn’t finish our lunch boxes, he asked us what we liked and didn’t like. He made sure to relay the information to the hotels and we finished out lunches going forward. He saw I had an itch to get into the Wildebeest migration. Even though it was far away and our chances of finding it could be small, he made sure it happened. The staff set everything apart, especially when we compared it to our tour companies we saw in the area.”
