The experience of a lifetime!
From the beginning, we felt very comfortable with Alex. He has a very calm and welcoming personality. He is very knowledgeable and entertaining. We liked starting our safari days early, with the beautiful morning light. This led to long days in the vehicle, but we never tired of Alex. He kept a pace that was perfect for us, and we had the general feeling that we were just experiencing nature and what was going on with the wildlife (although I’m sure Alex did his best to position us in areas where he expected some activity!) We saw truly amazing animals, activities, vistas – more than we ever expected. We enjoyed our conversations with Alex about life in Tanzania, culture, religion, education, etc. His knowledge of the animals we encountered, even birds, is outstanding. Since you see some of the same types of animals multiple times, we had some interesting conversations on their behavior and motivations. He catered to my desire to log all of the species we encountered, which included 35 animal species, 78 bird species (unbelievable that he knew all of these, or was able to quickly identify with his book), and 3 reptiles! Alex clearly has many friends among the other guides and staff in the lodges/camps. He is funny and fun to be around. We feel very lucky to know him and have had him as our guide.
“Access 2 Tanzania was absolutely amazing from day 1 of planning to our bittersweet “see you later” wave to Tanzania on our plane ride home. Casey helped my husband and I plan and execute our dream honeymoon. All we came to Access 2 Tanzania with was a rough idea of dates, a budget, and a dream of going on a safari – Casey took it from there! He worked with us to plan a great itinerary and handled every logistical detail from booking us puddle jumper flights out of the middle of the Serengeti to making sure our favorite soft drinks were stocked in our safari vehicle. Even after our itinerary was finalized, he checked in with us multiple times to answer any and every question we had and to make sure we were all set with visas, vaccinations, etc. We had the best experience ever and I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to East Africa!”
