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.
“A2T provides excellent communication with their clients from the initial planning stages through the end of their safari. Casey, our consultant, was very helpful in planning a visit with my child as well as exhibiting creativity in arranging special activities for our party. He also helped troubleshoot any concerns and presented solutions. A2T is very well organized and obviously treats their employees well and fairly. They give employees opportunities for advancement, e.g.assisting employees to advance from transport and cultural guides to safari guides. When I book my safari with A2T, I always know that I will have an outstanding experience.”
