“It was my second time within 7 years, that I did a safari with A2T. Both times, I was very satisfied about the consulting, the organisation and the safari itself. A2T knows how the world goes in Tanzania. Beside the consulting also the guide and the equipment (vehicle, binoculars etc.) was very good. The chosen Lodges were also as expected (mix bungalows and tent)”
