点评:Bottom line just book with Access2Tanzania. Long story is that I spent weeks doing research both online and speaking to people who have been on Safari before. I contacted several different companies. I wanted to support a company with financial ties to Tanzania to help support locally but felt more comfortable sending money to a company that also had offices here in the US since no Safari’s that are good are inexpensive and A2T was that option. Let me add that A2T was very well priced in comparison to other companies I spoke to. I also liked that they had people here in the US to speak to and plan the trip. I worked with Casey and told him what our family (4 adults) wanted to see and that we liked to also be active. Casey planned the perfect trip for us which also included not only safari drives, but bush walks, a night game drive, rural village visit and Olduvai Gorge all of which I highly recommend you included on your trip. We had to make some last-minute changes to our trip and Casey was very attentive and understanding. All the accommodations were excellent, clean, good food and very friendly staff. I truly can’t imagine what could have been nicer than where we stayed at each location, and I don’t think we were at the top tier places, but it felt like it and I’m picky.
Now the BEST part of the trip, our guide Danny. A2T only uses their employed guides. They do not subcontract out and the ones we spoke to have all worked for A2T for 9+ years. This makes a huge difference in your safari. We spoke to some other groups at our lodges who had booked with different companies, and they were not as happy with their guides as we were. If you think about the fact that you could be spending a week or longer with the same person you want them to be the best. Not only a personality that you like and can get along with, but that get you to see the animals in a safe and up-close way. Danny did an exceptional job of this. Danny immediately became part of our family, and it was wonderful to hear about his life and the customs and traditions. We laughed so much with him and even have some “Dannyism’s” (sayings) as we are now referring to them as. Danny took care of everything for us, and we had hakuna matata (no worries). What started out as a once in a lifetime trip has made all of us want to go back again. The people of Tanzania are so kind and have such a great sense of humor. What I didn’t expect was to enjoy the people just as much if not slightly more than the animals. This I do believe was due to Danny and his relationships with the people at the lodges we stayed out. He just brought out the best in everyone. Danny is forever a part of our family.
翻译:总之,只需通过 Access2Tanzania 预订即可。长话短说,我花了数周时间在网上进行研究,并与之前去过 Safari 的人交谈。我联系了几家不同的公司。我想支持一家与坦桑尼亚有经济联系的公司,以帮助当地提供支持,但我觉得更愿意向一家在美国也有办事处的公司汇款,因为没有一家好的 Safari 是便宜的,而 A2T 就是那个选择。让我补充一下,与我交谈过的其他公司相比,A2T 的价格非常合理。我也喜欢他们在美国有可以交谈和计划行程的人。我和 Casey 一起工作,告诉他我们一家人(4 名成人)想看什么,我们也喜欢积极活动。Casey 为我们计划了完美的旅行,其中不仅包括狩猎之旅,还包括丛林漫步、夜间游戏之旅、乡村参观和奥杜威峡谷,我强烈建议您将这些都包括在旅行中。我们不得不在最后一刻对我们的行程做出一些更改,Casey 非常细心和理解。所有的住宿条件都非常好,干净,食物美味,工作人员非常友好。我真的无法想象还有什么比我们在每个地方住的地方更好,我不认为我们住在顶级的地方,但感觉就像是顶级的,我很挑剔。
现在是旅行中最棒的部分,我们的导游丹尼。A2T 只使用他们雇佣的导游。他们不转包,我们交谈过的那些导游都在 A2T 工作了 9 年以上。这对您的狩猎之旅有很大的影响。我们在旅馆里与一些预订了不同公司的其他团体交谈过,他们对导游的满意度不如我们。如果你考虑到你可能会和同一个人一起度过一周或更长时间,你就会希望他们是最好的。不仅要有你喜欢和能相处的个性,还要能让你以安全、近距离的方式看到动物。丹尼在这方面做得非常出色。丹尼很快就成为了我们家庭的一员,听到他的生活、风俗和传统真是太棒了。我们和他一起笑了很多,甚至说了一些我们现在称之为的“丹尼主义”(俗语)。丹尼为我们打理了一切,我们度过了 hakuna matata(无忧无虑)。这原本是一生一次的旅行,却让我们所有人都想再去一次。坦桑尼亚人民非常善良,幽默感十足。我没想到的是,我和这里的人们一样喜欢,甚至比动物更喜欢。我相信这是由于丹尼和他与我们下榻的旅馆的人们的关系。他让每个人表现出最好的一面。丹尼永远是我们家庭的一员。
