Tanzania’s Animals and People
Raymond was great! He has a great personality and certainly knew his stuff. He was full of facts and stories about Tanzania, its animals, its people, history and much more. He joined us for dinner several times and we enjoyed his conversations. I can honestly say I think he’s the best driver I’ve ever met! How he got us through some of the muddy roads is a mystery to me. He even drove us through a road where a truck was already stuck in the mud, but he went through it in seconds. He was very safe. He also arranged a meetup with Maningo, our guide in 2013, to say hello in person. Due to delayed flights, my sister-in-law, daughter and I arrived at the airport hours after my brother’s arrival. Rather than take my brother to the hotel, Raymond stayed with him at the airport and got to know him quite well. When my sister-in-law’s luggage was lost, he followed up with the office daily and updated her regularly. He drove back to get her luggage while we were in the hotel in the Ngorongoro Crater. Raymond was particularly good at positioning our vehicle for the best photographs. He let us decide when we were ready to move on if we wanted to stay longer for viewing.
“From the moment I met Brian at a local travel show, I knew that Access 2 Tanzania was the tour operator for us. His extensive experience in Tanzania and involvement with Project Zawadi immediately instilled a sense of trust
The planning process was easy. You listened to our preferences, immediately responded to all of our questions, and provided us with valuable travel advice. The accommodations were beautiful, comfortable, and offered outstanding hospitality.
Our guide, Elly, was amazing! His professionalism and expertise allowed us to experience all of the wildlife at the five national parks we visited. In addition, he provided us insight into the traditions and customs of Moshi and the Maasai. By the end of our tour, Elly felt like a member of the family.”
