Wilfred is wonderful. For him it was a week. I suspect my children will remember him for their lifetimes.
His work ethic is unmatched compared to other guides from different trips we’ve taken. He worked tirelessly to make our experience enjoyable. He was constantly in contact with other guides to help find the animals on safari. And not only did he make an effort to find them, he also made sure to get us in just the right spot for the perfect picture. He was also patient, kind and conscientious regarding our children.
Wilfred’s English is fantastic. His knowledge about animals – from knowing specific facts to knowledge about behavior to recognizing and reproducing their sounds – is phenomenal. And I think he must have super-hero eyes. He was spotting animals, while driving the Land Rover, that I could barely see with the binoculars. And regarding super-hero powers – I have no other way to comprehend 1. how he could drive on those roads and 2. how he knew where we were going. Nothing was marked and we were out in the savannah with limited landmarks.
“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.”
