It was a delight to spend 12 days traveling with Joachim. He was consistently friendly, cheerful, prompt, and always trying his very best to make sure that we experienced and saw everything that it was possible to see–which he did with remarkable success. He was infinitely patient with us as we repeatedly pointed out the many birds that we saw and always stopped so that we could take pictures . He was also very good in helping us to identify them, including supplying us with a list of the birds that we had seen at the end of our trip to help us in identifying our many pictures of new, unfamiliar birds. He ensured that we saw every animal that we knew of in Tanzania, including rare leopard cubs, and also some species that we didn’t know about. He used his skills to enable us to see the wildebeast migration across the Mara River, despite our initial hesitation (fortunately all made it across safely, to our relief). Joachim truly was a friend as well as a wonderful guide and ambassador for our trip.

“Our trip preparation was totally seamless process. Access 2 Tanzania took care of everything. I couldn’t even imagine that everything would run so perfectly smoothly and 100 percent on time at every step of the way. Our guide Maningo was totally amazing and such a delight to spend the week with. His expertise and work ethic was just extraordinary! We had the pleasure of meeting many of the behind the scenes personnel at the A2T office in Arusha as well. The staff there were equally amazing and such gracious and welcoming hosts for a delicious lunch they served us on the day of our departure back to the States.”
