David was a perfect match for us as regards our/his personality. We like to joke around, tell stories, ask a lot of questions, adapt to circumstances on the ground, etc. That describes David. He is very personable which I think is important when you spend 10 – 11 days in the car with the person. He is really “into” birds, which was a total surprise to us and enhanced our visit. Of course we’d like to see, photograph and learn about the Big 5, etc., but adding birds to the itinerary was a big plus, as well as helps fill in the “dead time”. We connected so well with David that we invited him to join us for dinner the last several days, which was a nice plus.
“First of all, I love that it is associated with Project Zawadi. It felt good enjoying the tour and knowing we were contributing to educational projects in Tanzania. Everything was done professionally and very much catered to our needs. Our guides were fabulous! We asked them hundreds of questions and they could answer about most everything – animal habits, climate, geography. My companion was older and a good friend, but I found she often relied on my to carry her things, help her with her camera or help her in and out of the jeep. It wasn’t long before Wilfred noticed and stepped in. And he did it in a way that made her feel special. His taking on this extra responsibility allowed me to more freely enjoy myself and not miss some of the opportunities I might have if he had not been looking out for her. Ray told us, “You came us our guest but we left as friends.” I couldn’t agree more.”
