MEL’s Planet

The Map’s Edge is blessed with a host of what are, quite literally, some

of the best guides in Tanzania. Quite a bold statement and we know it.

 

Your Safari Guide is THE make or break of a safari. A good guide will head off in the opposite direction to everyone else, to remote corners of the Wilderness that a lesser guide would fear to tread, he will thrill you and educate you.  

 

He can read the morning spoor like you can   read the FT. Above all, he will share with     you the passion he has for East Africa,       her wildlife, her wilderness areas and        her people, who are as diverse as the          land they live in.

 

You will leave as friends, in constant touch   on the where and when of the next safari.

 

 

A bad Guide just leaves you wondering what all the hype for coming on safari was

all about. It was just an expensive choice of holiday that you won’t be making again.

 

A good guide has you saving for the next safari the very instant you get back home. It will become a lifetime love affair with a continent not as dark as one would think - one alive with colour, beauty and with the space that, in every busy life, we yearn to escape to.

 

To be a Map’s Edge Guide, yes, you do you have to have a phenomenal amount of Wildlife knowledge, so this comes as standard, but we believe it isn’t everything. A good guide takes you on a journey where figuring out the differences between Giraffe and Zebra droppings is fun, where identifying your needs and priorities on safari goes way beyond identifying that bird in that Acacia.
