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.
“What an amazing family experience. From the moment Willy picked us up at the airport to the moment he dropped us off we felt right at home. It’s hard to put into words the experience because it was truly life changing. You’d expect that we would say seeing lions (and boy did Willy the lion whisperer know how to find lions!) was the highlight. Don’t get me wrong that was wild! But our connection with Willy and doing things like visiting an orphanage and going to his house for a typical African dinner were outstanding. To have a little glimmer of how people in another country and culture live is to forage a lasting connection. We cried when we had to part with Willy because he had become family to us”
