Wonderful Wilfred
Wilfred was everything one could hope for in a guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable in addition to being kind, an excellent driver, and having amazing eyesight. He would spot animals in the distance while driving that some of us needed binoculars to spot. We got to see the big 5 and even part of the great migration (which Wilfred made a special effort to get us to because he knew we wanted to see that).
One of the most amazing experiences we had was after having stopped for our bush lunch in the shade with several other Jeeps. Wilfred and the other guides noticed in the distance that a lion had taken down a zebra, so after lunch we all drove over to see what we could see and sure enough, there were two lions feasting on their fresh zebra. We then noticed a lioness on the other side of the road. Wilfred initially thought that she was going to join the other two but when she didn’t walk towards them, Wilfred told us that she had taken down her own zebra and was going to get her cubs. None of the other guides figured it out so we were all alone when the lioness came back, just like Wilfred said, and crossed directly in front of our Jeep with her 3 cubs following closely behind! And this is just one example of what were daily experiences!
“Exceptional service all around. I liked both how responsive the company was in preparation for the trip, and the quality of the overall experience during the trip. I liked the accommodations and the parks, and how Karen worked with us ahead of time to meet our individual needs. I thought the price paid for the safaris set up by Access2Tanzania was a good value considering the price of entrance to the parks. I liked how the itinerary which Access2Tanzania set up was full because that is what we wanted, but still we had the ability to alter it for some relaxing downtime in front of amazing African vistas if we desired. I also like how Access2Tanzania gives back to the poor in Tanzania. I liked how the price was all inclusive, except for drinks and tips.”
