Migada partnered with our tour company to provide the Tanzania portion of our trip. Charles met us at the Kenya/Tanzania border and was unfailingly cheerful throughout our trip. He had a stack of plant, animal and bird books and when he wasn't with us, he was studying to answer our questions or to learn more. He loves his job and welcomed our never-ending questions. The massive herds of zebras and wildebeests in the Serengeti was incredible. However, If I was limited with time to visit one place, I would pick Ngorongoro Crater. It had all of my must-sees in a beautiful, cool setting. Charles knew that we had already seen a number of animals and so he honed in on finding the rhinos for us. The flamingo flock was also much anticipated. If I was headed back to Tanzania, I would definitely contact Migada again.
