Unforgettable experience with Face of Africa adventures
My fellow volunteers and I decided to go on a safari, we had spoken very well of this company and it was certainly the best choice, we were very happy!
We were with a very friendly and fun guide / driver who spoke Spanish, was explaining everything we wanted to know: about the Masai culture, life in Tanzania, the animals in the park (he has very good view to locate them), prices fair in souvenir shops.... Also the food that made us the cook was also very good and varied!
We went to the 3 most important parks (Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro) in 4 days and we camped in very nice places!
I could explain many more things but it is better that you live yourselves :)
Anyone who wants to live a nice experience I recommend Face of Africa adventures

Excellent service and hospitality!
We picked only one-day safari to Ngorongor crater and although it was very short and budget option, we are extremely happy to choose Face of Africa Adventures service. First of all all staff including the owner (greetings to you Hamadi) were very friendly and helpful regarding creating itinerary and they did everything what was needes to make our experience unforgetable.
Even though we choose one-day safari, Hamadi offered us accomodation for the night before safari in a logde next to the crater so that we didn't need to spend time (ca. 2,5 h driving) for getting to crater on the safari day but we did it previous day and spent night in camp which was an unusual experience itself.
The service was great. Everything was as agreed before. Since they have many options for safari, from budget to luxury ones I surely recommend this company for all kind of travelers, who wish to have unforgetable experience among wild animals in Tanzania! Thank you a lot.
The most beautiful experience
It was one of the best experiences in the hands of professionals who knew the whole African environment and our guide could speak Spanish, thanks to that I was able to increase my knowledge about African fauna and wildlife. I had the opportunity to see all the animals you imagine, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, lions, leopards, zebras, etc.
The service is excellent, the tour is long but thanks to the good company it becomes very fun. The people are very friendly and nice. On the food I have no complaints, the cook offered us international food with an African twist. Finally we finished with a good taste. The price is worth it, I recommend 100% this company.
I would repeat this Safari, thank you very much, Hammad, congratulations on your great work!

3 days safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro
Hamadi and Rama, our tour guide, are very nice and friendly people, they accomodated our wishes until the very last minute. I organized the safari with Hamadi asking for specific places to stay, and he found great prices in the places I wanted!
The safari went smoothly, and Rama explained us a lot of things about animals and the parks!
I would definitely recommend them and even book again with Face of Africa adventures!

Awesome 8 day Safari
We had a great private 8-Day Safari in Tansania. Hamad came to pick us up from the airport and anwered all of our questions that came in to our mind. We boooked a group safari but the others didn't showed up. So we did get a private tour through the 5 Nationalparks. Hamad had planed out every of our wishes very well so we got to stay one night in a lodge as well as to get up to the north of the Serengeti. Thanks to our guide Nicko we even got to see the big migration what was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. The End of July already was the end of the migration but our guide did everything possible to find them. We had a greate time!

Well planned and executed family safari
After a bit of online research we contacted Hamadi at Face of Africa Adventures to help plan a safari for my wife, 8yr old son and me. Hamadi was very patient and helpful in recommending various lodging options and game drives to meet our desires. After putting together a plan that met our budget Hamadi provided a long list of previous clients as references before the down payment was made and there was nothing but rave reviews. The end result was a perfectly executed safari, from Hamadi and George (our guide/driver) meeting us at the airport to our game drives in Serengeti/Ndutu (saw the great migration), Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire and the private Manyara Ranch Conservancy (where we sat 10m from to a pride of lions, with 2 cubs in an open vehicle having a sundowner for over an hour).

We loved our guide Abdula, was a father to us! And Gideon, what an excellent cooker! he did everything with one grill. the food was very good, very "continental", a lots of food, actually! we saw a lot of animals, Abdula explain everything to us and add a lot of patient. We recomend to everyone! In the end, Hamadi, the company owner, went with us to a local restaurant in Arusha and we tried a lot of typical food. Want to go back! Thank you for everything!!! :)

Great 6 day safari with Nico and Face of Africa Adventures
We booked from Germany a 6 day safari (15.09 to 20-09.2016) with Hamadi via this website. We then had a lot of email contact where he made a great itinerary for us and answered very professionally all of our questions. He even provided us with contact information of other customers. We paid 1/3 of the amount beforehand as deposit and the rest on arrival. It was done all very professionally.
On arriving in Arusha, we visited him in his office, everything was very nice, Hamadi is a very polite person. We were shown the jeep and could decide if we wanted to take it or if we want to switch it (we had a very good 4x4 car, we met other people with very old cars that broke down all the time). We also were introduced to our driver / guide, Nico. He was an excellent driver and guide, we had such a good time with him (it was just me and my wife on the safari) and you could really have a great time with him during dinner. When he heard on the ranger radio that some animal was seen he immediately went there, we saw a huge amount of animals. The accommodations were all superb and really really great (Karatu country lodge near Lake Manyara, in the serengeti a luxury tented camp and Rhino lodge near Ngorogoro crater).
Hamadi really organized a beautiful safari for us, it was worth every dollar and Nico was an amazing driver, we can only recommend Face of Africa and Nico!
We went 1 day Tarangire, 1 day Lake Manyara, 2,5 days Serengeti and 1 day Ngororo Crater, it was so much fun!
Thank you very much again Hamadi and Nico!

Awesome stay in Arusha
I recommend Face of Africa Adventures to anyone looking for a serious and affordable tour operator in Arusha for a safari or for any other fun activities in the region. We had some days to spend in Arusha after our Safari, and they made sure we enjoy every moment during our stay there, we went hiking in national parks, swimming in some beautiful hots prings and admiring some of the most amazing waterfalls of the region. Thank you FOAA for the wonderful time in Arusha, and thank you Hamadi, our guide, for your kindness, hospitality and patience, you have made our stay in Arusha the highlight of our trip in Tanzania and we hope to come back soon to climb Kilimanjaro with you. For travellers to Tanzania, don't hesitate to contact FOAA if you want to have the best of your time there.
