Trip of a Lifetime
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.
“We had a wonderful experience. We did not know what to expect going into organizing this trip but we felt very well supported and felt that the trip was tailored to our needs, interests and preferences. Thanks to the videos, the FAQ pages, the summary document and the videochat we had with Karen ahead of departing we were fully prepared for the trip and didn’t have any surprises.
Our guide Willy was phenomenal. We had a lot of fun driving around with him and we really appreciated his good nature, his knowledge, his passion for the game drives and animals, and his excellent driving skills.”
