One of the best experience of our life!
Amazing Safari with Face of Africa! I booked the Safari from my country and paid in full before to arrive. The communication was excellent: they answer by email straight away to any doubt or answer, I received by email the breefing of the Safari and they provide a very good services: pick up and drop off from/to the airport, excellent guide and chef cooker.
A very particular thanks to our guide Issach, who is a really a great person and the best guide ever, he made our Safari one of the best experience of our life...we saw all the BIG FIVE!!!
The price is very competitive to the other company keeping high standard quality.
Thanks Hamadi for the top quality service!

Great adventure, but ended up going with Greg Adventures
We had a top-notch experience. We did a 3 day safari through Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater and everything went as expected. Sammy, our driver, was really really great and one of the main reasons we ended up seeing so many animals and so close to us. Same as our cook, who provided us with great meals over these days.
The negative point is that we end up going with a different company (Greg Adventures) after asking by email and being told that we weren't going with a partner of them. It was quite a big surprise when we arrived and we noticed we were going with a different company. So there's not really a lot we can say about Face of Africa, but we can 100% advise you to go with Greg Adventures.

Responsive, reliable, committed to serving their clientele
Hamadi was very good at communicating and helping me to set up this unexpected opportunity for a very short 2 day/one-night safari. Winnie, my guide for the two days ,was very reliable and knowledgeable about the animals and ecossytem. I traveled alone as an older single woman and was very comfortable throughout - last minute changes, on my part, came up, and Hamadi was very flexible, and again a reliable communicator.

Photographer's Dream!
What an amazing experience! Face of Africa Adventures lived up to their name with outstanding hospitality and a top notch tour guide! Our guide, Shaffie, was friendly, knowledgeable, and helped us take in some amazing views! What made the trip even more enjoyable was talking to Shaffie about his love for the environment and how passionate he is about nature, the Serengeti, and his country of Tanzania! The accommodations were also outstanding and a great place to relax after a fun day on safari.

Great!!
The safari of 4 days/ 3 nights to Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater was great. We've seen a lot of animals. Our guide Apollo was very nice and knew a lot about everything. The cook was great. His food was excellent. After the safari Hamadi (owner) came unexpectedly to our hostel to ask if we'll liked the safari and if we had any complaints, tips etc. etc. We liked that very much. With this he shows that he really cares about his customers and wants them to have a good experience.

Fantastic!!!!!
My boyfriend and I just did the safari in Tanzania with this agency (face of africa adventure) and we had a great time! Amadi was very kind and helpful for any our request! The safari was magnificent, we saw many animals including lions and cheetahs! We slept 3 nights on camping and it was a unique experience, even the food was ok!
I would recommend to trust this agency !!!

Fabulous Experience at Affordable Price
Face of Africa was completely tuned into what our group of 21 nature journal sketchers hoped to encounter, and they made it happen! Hamadi put together a 7 day/8 night package covering Tarangire, Serengeti and Lake Manyara National Parks and two days in Ngorongoro Crater. Riding in four reliable, comfortable vehicles we saw all the animals, large and small, feathered and otherwise, plants and panoramas to suit each personal checklist. Our driver/guides were experienced and knowledgable. Additionally we had one dedicated guide whose range and depth of knowledge was in itself a wonder! I felt safe on all roads and conditions, even forgoing my seat belt before the week was out.
We stayed a few extra days in Arusha at Green Mountain Hotel, which I enjoyed for its exposure to local life and the warmth of its staff. Our room had a great view of people on the street, the Haleluya Shop and hair styling being sensibly done on the sidewalk. However, we couldn’t avoid having a bathroom sized pool after showering—improvement needed there. All the hotels were wonderful, peaking at The Retreat At Ngorongoro. We’d been warned to eat only cooked or peeled produce, but ended up eating all the tempting salads at the hotels without any problem. I think the best food may have actually been at Kenzan Luxury Camp.
I’m thinking about a return trip. If that happens, I will most certainly plan it with Face of Africa.

Unforgettable Safari tour with experienced and trustworthy organisation
Face of Africa Adventures gave us initially a warm welcome in Tanzania by picking us up at Kilimanjaro airport in the middle of the night, and arranged us a residence in Arusha so we had a place to sleep for the first night. After exploring Arusha and nearby villages with a guide of FoAA the next day, we were ready for our 5 day safari experience: Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Serengeti & Ngorongoro National park where we saw the big five and all it's associated scenes as we can see them in Europe only on National Geographic TV. It was an unforgettable tour with an excellent crew. Special thanks to Hamadi and his well experienced and organised team!

Amazing Safari experience with incredibly knowledgeable guides-Once in a Lifetime trip made perfect!
This custom Safari was wonderful and far exceeded my expectations! We saw all the animals we could hope for and more and so close, our guides were especially good at knowing where the animals were and answering all our questions. Their humor was also very welcome. The places we stayed were incredible, I envisioned “roughing it” but every place was lovely and had basic amenities. Even the tented camp was very luxurious with hot showers and free laundry! The jeeps for the FOAA (Face of Africa Adventures) Safari were all in good condition (I was in a large group and we rotated every day). Huge windows and roofs that open to be able to stand up and enjoy seeing the animals up close and felt very safe. The guides knew English very well. FOAA even helped with questions and concerns before and after the Safari. After spending a week exploring the northern Tanzania safari circuit I would highly recommend FOAA to friends, family and anyone interested in a great Safari experience for a great price!
