Our trip to
Tanzania with
Ecological Wilderness Adventures really exceeded all our expectations. As an
ecotourism operator who specializes in
guiding professional photographers
and film crews who wish to photograph brown bears here in Alaska I was very interested in how they conducted their business.
|
|
| Most importantly all the
guides are wonderful people. They are kind, generous, patient and enthusiastic. How they remain so day after day and question after question, is a mystery to me. They are excellent at what they do. |
|
| Their depth of knowledge about animals and the landscape is truly amazing. There were four retired Alaska Fish and Game wildlife biologists on our trip, with all manner of degrees and experiences in the field. We were all constantly amazed by the information that our guides were able to give to us. |
|
| The
guides know about photography and they effortlessly get you in the right spot for the shot you want. They know the habitats of both birds and animals, “where things are,” and can put you onto photo subjects for as long as the light lasts. |
|
| Most importantly, at least to me, the
guides show a respect for the animals. There was no chasing or undue stress, no effort to have the animals interact with us, or any attempt to interrupt, what we call in the bear world, the on going behavior of the animal you are watching. We always left the animals as we found them, which is the true mark of a superior wildlife guide. |
|
| So, I recommend
Ecological Wilderness Adventures to all my clients--or anyone else--without reservation. I simply say go!
Tanzania is a beautiful country, with wonderful people, and I can’t think of the better safari outfitters than
Ecological Wilderness Adventure to show it to you. |
