Asante sana
We cannot say anything else but huge asante sana to Hamadi from Face of Africa who helped us organize our Safari adventure, it was perfect to the last detail…
Hamadi was of a huge help for us from the first moment we started to organize our safari – he answered a lot of our questions in advance by email, picked us at the airport in Arusha, organized decent accommodation for us in Arusha, devoted his free time to be our local guide in Arusha during the first and last day of our Safari and last but not least he organized a great 6-day Safari trip for us in an extremely comfortable car with educated guide Emanuel and a super chef Jamali. We travelled as a couple and decided for a budget camping Safari in order to save some money. However, in the end, we realized that we made a great choice not just because of some savings but also thanks to the opportunity to experience a piece of really wild nature. Face of Africa arranged a rental of a very comfortable, spacious tent, thus we really did not lack any comfort. Our guide Emanuel was were funny, friendly and talkative but what is most important, he was a living encyclopedia about the animals – he knew really a lot about the animals and it was amazing to listen to his lessons from zoology while game driving. Our chef, Jamali was great too…We are dreaming about his pancakes for breakfast and hot soups and delicious vegetable sauces for dinner even now. Making the decision to use the services of Face of Africa and Hamadi for our Safari experience was a great step and we are looking forward to cooperate with Hamadi while organizing our Kilimajaro trek next time

It was an outstanding experience
Hamadi was great in everything he set up. Our experience couldn't have been any greater. It's true that the trip wasn't cheap, but we had one of the most amazing experiences in our life. We look forward to meet Hamadi again, a good friend of us already, since we started to miss Africa from the very first day we were back in Europe. Thank you for everything, you and your team are extremely great!

My experience with Hamadi
I was travelling around Tanzania with my French friend Apolline. We contact Hamadi just few days before arriving, as well as others guides from different companies, but we felt he was the nicest one since the beginning. Our budget was low, so he informed us about all the possibilities we had and advised us. He picked us up at the bus station at midnight, it was not at all a problem to him, and he took us to a bed&breakfast where we could stay for free for up to four nights. He also showed us Arusha and when he had some work to do his brother took care of us. They both helped us with everything we needed.
We really enjoyed our two days safari and we could see everything but cheetahs and leopards. It was amazing to see the Ngorongoro.
Since I wanted to go to the Kilimanjaro but I had not much money, Hamadi offered me a very low priced tour.
In Africa it is normal to feel that everybody wants to make business from you, but not with this people, we really felt welcome. Asante sana.

Hamad Hasani
Hamad Hasani is a local tour operator. Although we did not book our safari through him and we met him afterwards. He was able to share with us with his knowledge and experience with safari. He was able to help out our friends with finding a great budget price for safari tour and accommodation. He was able to give us a free B&B room during the low season. He is a great man with a great heart who is always more than willing to help tourists out.
Hamad Hasani is definitely the guy you want to meet and have him help you out with the accommodation and safari tour in Arusha!

Outstanding safari experience
Hamadi Hassani is a local tour operator. He's one of the nicest people we've ever met. From the first till the very last minute of our encounter, Hamadi was always completely honest. For him the sky is the limit if it comes to helping people. We went to four other tour operators (With Hamadi accompanying us!!) for a quotation and the price came not even close to what we paid. We did a 5 day budget safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro) and had an unbelievable experience for a very good price. Our expectations could never been so high... everything was as promised and better.
Words cannot describe how grateful we are. We can only recommend Hamadi to everyone looking for a real African experience and support local business.
FYI Because of low season, Hamadi arranged for us to stay in a b&b for free cause he knew we were on a budget (were looking for couch surfing). Just one of the many things Hamadi did for us.
Just get tour safari with Hamadi, you won't regret it. Guaranteed!!

Hamad Hasani knows Tanzania!
Face of Africa Adventures is operated by native Tanzanian, Hamad Hasani. He's a very friendly and knowledgeable man who goes above and beyond any expectations a traveller may have while abroad. He will make you feel like his home is your home. When I visited TZ in 2013, he showed me all of the hidden wonders of Arusha and the places nearby. Often he would ask me if there was something else I wanted or needed, just to make sure that I was consistently satisfied with the experience. The places I saw, the memories I left with, and the photos I took speak for themselves. Thank you, Face of Africa Adventures!

“Highly Recommend this tour company!”
This safari was a once in a lifetime trip for us. The best decision we made was to use Face of Africa adventures.
Everything was made so easy for us, the company have great staff which is the key to their future success. We dealt with Betty in the Arusha office. Her email responses were quick and extremely helpful. She also allowed us to completely customize our tour. Throughout the whole experience Betty was extremely attentive and we genuinely felt like we were cared for.
Our guide was Patrick. HE IS AMAZING. I recommend (if you can) ask for him. He's very experienced, he drove incredibly well. We always felt safe the whole-way through. He can also spot leopards, cheetahs and lions from hundreds of meters away! He also taught us a lot about the Masai culture and the wildlife.
The accommodation was great; the Serena hotels in particular were faultless!
We went in mid-December - our favorite location was Ndutu national park, if you have the opportunity go there during this time period. Here you can go off road whereas in the Serengeti there are restrictions.
