Wilfred came recommended to us and we can see why. He has a keen eye and there were at least three times where he spotted animals before anyone else and we got an exclusiving viewing. He was also very considerate of my photography requirements and adjusted to support me. We had a great time learning about Tanzanian life and culture and he was a great resource, What we liked best was that he did not focus on the big cats and the big five, but also took the time to show us the birds, the squirrels, the mongooese and the dik-diks. We shared the same philosophy towards animals and had a strong moment of connection when we came across a dik-dik run over by a water tanker and it broke our heart to see the mate in mourning.
“My trip to Tanzania was the first time I went on a trip that I didn’t plan myself. It was daunting trying to decide on a trip operator solely by using the internet because I don’t personally know anyone who had been to TZ. Emails with Karen were answered promptly and our first phone call really put me at ease. The A2T website was easy to navigate and between that and my own internet research I rarely felt the need to reach out to ask questions. It was great to get an itinerary from Karen, who knew TZ so well. I liked that A2T had a small focus so I know that they had a deep understanding of the options. This was also the most expensive trip I had ever taken and I didn’t want to make any big mistakes that would diminish our experience. Lastly, this trip was particularly special because I was bringing my 2 adult children and I have no idea when we will be able to travel together again. It was important for me to plan a memorable and enjoyable trip.”
