If you want to see the most of animals- Alex is a must have guide!
I think a guide can make or break the safari experience, since so many things and smoothness of the trip depends on him. We were lucky to have Alex, who was able to deal with all of our requests and questions. He made us feel at ease and accommodated our needs throughout the journey. He has a vast knowledge about animals as well as culture and history of Tanzania. And the most amazing capability- he has eagle-eyes!!! I still can’t believe how far he can see without the binoculars!!! So many times he would stop a car and tell us that there is some animal in the distance. We couldn’t see it without the binoculars, and sometimes struggled to find it even with the binoculars, so he had to direct us where to look!!! We saw so many animals. He had a lot of patience! After Tanzania we traveled for two more weeks on our own, and often wished Alex were with us, because we would have seen so much more!
All in all, if I get another chance to go back to Tanzania, I would want Alex to be my guide again.
“Access2Tanzania did a great job planning our trip to Rwanda and Tanzania. Very knowledgeable, good guides, etc.
Overall everyone had a great time and this will be a vacation we will all remember forever!
We almost always plan our own trips and it was nice to have someone else plan. There were a few surprises that we didn’t love, though, Zanzibar itinerary being the main one, and too many game drives in Tanzania – see more feedback below. Had we done our own research and planning we would have likely discovered these things ahead of time but did choose to rely on the experts.
There were a couple of accommodations that could have been better. Would have been nice to have options like for another $200/pp you could stay at x hotel in this place, etc.”
