Bwana Paul,

Where do I start to try to describe my thoughts about the trip you led to Tanzania.
People ask me what I liked best, and my answer is, every 10 minutes there was a new best.

Lets start with the vehicles; they couldn't have been better.
Comfortable, not crowded, plenty of room for camera equipment, and lots of room to shoot pictures.  Even the non photographers loved it. We laughed when we saw the other tour groups with 7 people standing up, trying to shoot photos.

The drivers: very knowledgeable, Our driver Had a 3 year degree as a tour guide driver, knew every thing about the animals, people, history etc. He was great at spotting animals, that I never would have seen, and predicted their behavior.

The hotels: they were super, great rooms, beds, showers. The food was excellent (I did have a couple tough steaks), and the staffs were super.

The Leader: Don't get a big head, but I can't imagine going to a country like Tanzania, without a leader with your experience and knowledge.

Being fluent in the language was a big help at the airport, villages and at the lodges.
Your expertise in photography, along with your constant concern that everyone was enjoying themselves, able to see the animals, and get the pictures they wanted,

made our trip the TRIP OF A LIFETIME. Until the next one.
