Nasibu made our trip the wonderful experience that it was! He is great! He is very experienced and knowledgeable regarding the animals and the layout of the parks. He knew right where to go to find the particular things that we were interested in seeing, and he made sure that we saw them. I said I loved elephants, and we saw them every day. Troy was interested in cheetahs and leopards, and Nasibu found multiple of each. I wasn’t sure that we would see a wildebeest crossing, and Nasibu showed us three. For one of those, after waiting for some time, many of the other vehicles drove away. Nasibu said, “be patient”, and sure enough, about 20 minutes later they crossed. Nasibu could answer every question that we had and he did so with patience! He was a pleasure to spend time with and had our every comfort in mind. He went out of his way to make us feel special. He arranged to bring a bottle of wine and glasses on a late afternoon drive in Tarangire, so we had a surprise drink during which we watched the sunset. He arranged with Kiota Camp to put our breakfast (everything that was on the buffet) in an insulated hamper one morning in Central Serengeti, and we had breakfast in the open plains on the hood of the Land Cruiser. That is definitely a highlight of the trip! When we mentioned that we would like to stop at the Olduvai Gorge museum on the way to the Serengeti, he made it happen even though it was not on the itinerary (we reimbursed him for the entry fee). I cannot say enough good things about Nasibu.
“Outstanding. We have recommended you to all of our traveler friends. We cannot recommend Access 2 Tanzania highly enough. They were referred to us by a friend and we were immediately attracted by the nonprofit component of the company that supports education for Tanzanian children in need. Casey helped us over several phone sessions and email exchanges to put together the perfect trip for our needs. Our guide, Joachim, was a wonderful companion and friend throughout our 12 day safari. He ensured that we saw everything that we could possibly have seen far beyond our best expectations, including lions, cheetahs, and leopards with cubs and with kills, tons of elephants, giraffe, zebras, hippos, antelopes of various kinds, and every other imaginable animal. We were able to witness the migration of the wildebeasts across the Mara River from Kenya and on throughout the Serengeti in their long lines, stretching from one horizon to the other. He was also extremely helpful in aiding us in finding and identifying the many, many birds of Tarangire, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti, which was of particular interest to us. A2T provided us with an amazing experience and we would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to others.”
