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.
“Exceptional service all around. I liked both how responsive the company was in preparation for the trip, and the quality of the overall experience during the trip. I liked the accommodations and the parks, and how Karen worked with us ahead of time to meet our individual needs. I thought the price paid for the safaris set up by Access2Tanzania was a good value considering the price of entrance to the parks. I liked how the itinerary which Access2Tanzania set up was full because that is what we wanted, but still we had the ability to alter it for some relaxing downtime in front of amazing African vistas if we desired. I also like how Access2Tanzania gives back to the poor in Tanzania. I liked how the price was all inclusive, except for drinks and tips.”
