Truly a Dream to Reality Trip and Can’t Wait to Go Back!
We could not have asked for a better guide. Alex was truly wonderful in every way and he really made our trip just incredibly unforgettable. He is very knowledgeable with culture, politics, and wildlife in its environment, and has super bionic eyes. Whenever we saw a bird or animal, he knew what it was and was able to explain a little something about what they were doing or going to do. He spotted a male and female ostrich and stopped to explain what we were about to witness — and surely enough, it was a beautiful mating dance. We witnessed gazelles posturing and going into a fight, brother lions after a take over of a pride, baby topi being born, cheetah putting on a show after his meal… list goes on and on. With Alex, we always felt safe and taken care of. His driving was safe and courteous — whenever we had a car approaching our direction, he would roll his window up to prevent dust from coming in. He knew just where the bumps were like he memorized the routes. We shared many laughs and insightful conversations. He was accommodating to our needs and adapted to our interests. At the end of our trip, we were sad to say our farewells to our new friend and we hope to stay in touch via facebook.
“We absolutely loved our experiences with Access 2 Tanzania. We booked our trip to Tanzania only a month before departure and were very happy to find out that November was the low season and that the lodging was still available. Karen was very responsive in getting the dates and bookings to us for review and took the time to talk to us over the phone a couple of times to ensure that we understood the details of our trip. The other highlight of our trip was the guides at Access 2 Tanzania. All of the guides that we had were great. However, our primary guide, Raymond, was the best guide that we have ever had on a trip anywhere and we have traveled a lot around the world. We felt incredibly safe while we were with Raymond. He was also very knowledgeable about Tanzania and the wildlife. He knew exactly where to take us to see the most wildlife and had an incredible eye for spotting the wildlife. He was able to spot wildlife that we could not see with binoculars using his own eyes.”
