Noel was amazing! He was so kind and thoughtful in the way he tried to make sure we were getting everything we wanted out of the trip. He was active on the radio to find animals that certain people in our family wanted to see, helped us stop to get some local roadside food in one of the towns we were driving through, and was always flexible with us on timing/scheduling for each day, including noticing and adapting to our energy levels. It was very impressive how he could spot / identify animals from such a distance, as well as speak knowledgeably about their behaviors and characteristics. It was great to see him light up when talking about his family, hear him open up more about things in Tanzania beyond the scope of just our safari, and ask us questions about our own lives and life back in the US. My (our) experience in Tanzania would not have been the same without Noel!!
“The entire trip was superbly planned, down to the tiniest details. In the planning stages, Casey was very receptive to what we were looking to do and was very straightforward about the pros and cons of each aspect of the trip. Once it was booked, he was very helpful with helping us plan and figure out what to expect when we got there. All of his recommendations and bits of advice were spot on. In particular, they went above and beyond when we had a problem during the trip. My wife had a reaction to one of the medications she was taking and we needed to seek out a doctor. Casey, our guide Maningo, and the rest of the A2T crew were on top of it, calling us in the middle of Ngorongoro Crater to make sure we got what we needed. Casey and Maningo got a local American doctor on the phone to consult, and we managed to fix the problem pretty quickly. Everybody was wonderful in a moment where we were feeling a bit nervous about what to do.”
