I read that you have contacts with many planners in US. Is there anyone in NC/SC or even Atlanta that you can recommend. I like the idea of meeting face to face. Working on our sixth safari.

Did you know that Craig himself is a much respected safari planner?

We used a TO in Tanzania, but communicated via Skype, so face-to-face.

Hi Samcat - Paul Swart is a close friend of mine and lives right in the geo-center of the places you named in Aiken, South Carolina. He is arguably one of the best horseback safari agents in the World and is super conservation focused. His brother-in-law, Map Ives, is head of Rhino Conservation for the country of Botswana and a cult hero in the US safari conservation circles. Paul can easily help you plan a Tanzania safari. I honestly don't know if he will hit the road to meet you but you can always ask.

Oops, forgot to include the name: EASY TRAVEL.
Couldn't have been more satisfied.

Thanks for the info, Craig. Aiken isn't that far from me. I'll get in touch and try to meet with Paul.

Good luck! When I was a graduate student in nuclear engineering at GA Tech, I worked a little at the Savannah River Site nuclear waste glassification plan (turning waste into glass). Now you see why I changed careers...
