Tanzanian Dream Vacation
Ray was a great guy and we’d love to work with him again. I was very interested in getting great images of the animals and he made that a priority for me–he KNEW the best angles to take the image. It was also important for me to see a rhino and we saw THREE in Ngorongoro. When we got a flat tire in the crater, it wasn’t a big deal–he is great under pressure. He is a kind and funny person. When other guides from other companies were going off road (illegally), Ray did not, which speaks volumes to his ethics and love of wildlife/nature.
“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.”
