Went to the Arusha NP. Clear communication, great tour, highly recommended.
Florent came by our hotel in order to sort out our last minute booking and details of the tour. This helped a lot, and the tour reflected our communication.
Our driver, John, was really helpful with anything we needed, the car was comfortable, and in general, the trip was really rewarding. The walking safari was really great as well, the park ranger at Arusha NP was professional and made our tour enjoyable.

Great Experience for our first Safari thanks to John!
First of all the meeting at the airport went without any problems. We found John, our guide, very easily and then our adventure directly started. 5 minutes after arriving in Tarangire National Park we have seen already Elephants, Giraffes, Zebras and Wilderbeasts. And this was only the beginning! John drove us to many different places where we could see a lot of different animals. Already on the first day, we had the pleasure of spotting a deluge of different & many animals.
Thanks to John, as he has an eagle sight and could spot almost anything out there and could also give us a lot of information about the different animals that we have and haven't seen yet.
Apart from that we also enjoyed talks with John very much (as example at the dinner or lunch) about anything (e.g lifestyle, education, history, politics, private life) of Tanzania.
The accommodation provided exceeded any expectation, being in middle of the wild life, having a Zebra pee in front of our window in middle of the night. Even walking at night could be dangerous during the night (hello to the Zebra on the path), so Maasai protection was available. The lodge itself was beautifully decorated and very clean, additional bonus is a beautiful terrace and a garden shower. Of course we cannot forget about the swimming pool (no time to use sadly) with the panorama view over the park, filled with Zebras, Elephants, Giraffes, Antilopes.
The 2nd day we went to the Lake Manyara National Park, where we could see & experience a totally different natural environment (from tropical forests to savanna and swamps). The last but not least, John was among the first to spot a Leopard (apparently the hardest to spot). Therefore and thanks to that, during 2 days we could spot 4 out of the African Big Five Animals. (Rhinos were not living in the parks we visited).
It was very pleasant to meet Florent (the owner of the company), who then was also so kind to drive us to our next destination. Overall this trip exceeded our expectations, especially for our first safari ever. We would have never expected to see so many different animals in such a short time.

a trustworthy company, always at the attention of its customers
On September 20, 2018 we went trekking Kilimanaro on the Machame road and a safari 4 days 3 nights in a camping package. Extraordinary holidays with a team of guide and extraordinary bearer. Always a little care with us so that the trek be a success all along the line.
A Ngorongoro and Sarengeti Crater Camping Safari with a very safe guide and plenty of experience to spot the animals.
For us Florent Ipananga is a man of confidence just like the company Snow Africa Adventure.
Congratulations Snow Africa Adventure you have made us live a great adventure

Once in a lifetime experience
Snow Africa did an incredible job putting together an amazing safari without much lead time. They were responsive, flexible, and professional. A friend of mine recommended Snow Africa, and I'm so glad they did! My parents and I did a 5 day safari to Ngorongoro crater, Manyara, with 2 days in Serengeti + bonus lazy Saturday in Arusha.
We stayed in amazing tented lodges along the way. Each day was filled with incredible game drives. Our guide/driver Lorry was funny, knowledgeable and very flexible when we rolled out of bed a bit late. We kept looking at each other and saying it was a once in a lifetime experience. We saw hippos (my favorite), cheetahs, a leopard, many lions, and even saw a genet!
It was amazing!

Our safari was a wonderful, exciting 6 days, full of beautiful animals, people and geography.
Snow Africa Adventures set up a wonderful 6 day safari for my husband, daughter, and myself. Florent was very response throughout the process of setting up the safari to picking us up at the airport, and then meeting us the last day to check-in with us about our experience. The accommodation arrangements were really beautiful, especially the Ngorongoro Farm House Lodge and the Kubukubu Luxury Tented Lodge and the food was delicious. Lorry was our tour guide and was excellent - very knowledgeable, personable, and funny. We saw so many animals both in Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. It was an amazing experience! Thank you Snow Africa Adventures!

unforgettable, amazing, beautiful team!
we left early June with snow africa adventures for the ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro and for a safari in three parks : Nogongoro, Serengeti and Lake Manyara.
We had unforgettable moments on sunny days. A great team, kind, attentive, listening to us all along our journey, anxious to provide us with maximum information on their culture, their biodiversity. A team we will never forget.
In short, we were pampered. We both arrived at the top of Kilimanjaro with just amazing meals, with a wonderful sunrise with our guides Julius and Hussein and thanks to the whole team Joshua, Johnny, Sylvester, Ayubu, Sebastian, Stevi, and all other...
During our safari, with Lorry, we saw a multitude of animals with a special mention for the herd of elephants that stopped right in front of the car. The choice of lodges was perfect: quiet, comfortable and in beautiful places!
Thanks to Florent, the boss, for the whole organization and for his daily investment: daily calls to find out if everything is fine and coaching back and forth to the airport!

Professionalism from start to finish.
Climbing Kilimanjaro with Snow Africa Adventures was an experience that we highly recommend. As a tour operator from the USA, we often view how a tour is handled with different eyes. As this review was titled -from the pick up at the airport, to our final hugs goodbye, our experience could not have run smoother or be any better. Florent, Snow Africa's owner/operator made sure that all details were executed perfectly and his staff of guides and porters were not only professional, but they were all so enjoyable to be with, especially when they sang to us! We felt safe at all times under their care. The equipment provided for the campsite was top quality and the food served was excellent. After a successful summit, we finished our African adventure with 3 days of safari. It was an amazing journey - one that we will want to repeat again, and again! We loved it!

Amazing climb and TOP organisation
We follow the Machame route to climb the Kili.
Snowafrica was the perfect organization.
Our guides Florence and Benjamin are very excellent in guiding.
Also the organization of porters, a real good cook and a familiar waiter help us to reach the top.
Thanks a lot for this one in a lifetime experience.

Summum expérience of my life.
The decision for going with Snow Africa Adventures was taken under the recommandation of a friend and he was right all the way, we have been treated like a part of the family. We first did the Kilimanjaro Summit using the Rongai Route which give a good acclimation to high altitude and took us to the summit using Gilman's Point. Our 2 leader guides were outstanding and took us easily to the top, overnight, singing gospel songs for us. The crew was fantastic, we always had the best spot at the camping site and plenty of good food.
After the Kili, we hitted the road in a confortable Land-Cruiser for a long 7 days Safari that seems to go too fast. From Arusha to Serengeti, all accommodations were a dream like the movie "Out of Africa" and at the surprise of our fantastic guides, we saw so many animals even the big five. Our driver/guide had eyes all around his head, never missing any interesting point. I recommend the compagnie, the owner Florent Ipananga is a real gentleman and make sure your trip will be "dreams come true" .
