Asanterra - provided a wonderful service and thoroughly enjoyed the holiday to Zanzibar.
This was a dream holiday to Zanzibar . We stayed at the Zoi Hotel and I had a wonderful time. Anne was at the end of the phone if I needed any help or advice and her response time was literally in minutes. Highly recommend this company and will definitely use again.

Very well organized and professional
Anne from Afric'Aventure met our expectations and organized a trip rich in emotions and discoveries. The camps were of excellent quality, the food varied, the service staff very kind and the guides very professional. In short, camp managers listening to their visitors. The advice given by Anne for the trip was very useful.
Going back to another time of year is very tempting. Thanks again.

Making wonderful memories with Afric'Aventure!
Since our children have grown up, we wanted to experience a (maybe last) special family trip with the four of us. Through friends we came across Ann Saels and her agency Afric'Aventure. Nothing could compare to this fantastically organised trip that took us from one amazing experience to the next.
We experienced an unforgettable safari in the park of Ruaha (Tanzania). The Mwagusi camp led by Chris Fox is a unique place where you can fully enjoy the wonderful nature. As it was our first safari, I was a bit scared of the wild animals, but the professional approach immediately reassured me so that we could all enjoy the beauty of the park to the fullest.
After that, we stayed a few days at The Palms in Zanzibar, another pearl that Ann Saels (such a gentle person whose intention it is to make people happy) introduced us to.
We will remain eternally grateful to her for all the beautiful memories she gave us.

Perfect stay with Afric'Aventure
We're just back from our first trip in Tanzania (Zanzibar and Mafia Island). Anne understood perfectly what we needed and what we wanted for these 15 days.
Thank you so much Anne for this experience and hope we'll be back soon for an other trip in Tanzania with Afric'Aventure.

Very well organized, service oriented and reliable.
It started of with the superb organization: Anne was very responsive and flexible to accommodate our ideas and wishes. She was a great resource in helping us put together our trip to Gombe. Everything was well organized: From the airport transfers to the boat ride to the lodges. Anne organized that Sixtus guided us through Gombe. Having studied the Chimps there and in Mahale for nearly 20 years he is very knowledgable. We learned a lot about the Chimps, their habitat, and Jane Goodall's work. Not only did we have several encounters with the Chimps. We also enjoyed speaking to researchers at the Jane Goodall institute and learning about their work. Overall we spent two nights at Gombe and went on Chimp-Tracking three times. We cherish the memories!

I can't find enough words to describe the fantastic experience we had on our safaris!!!!
From our first contact we had with Anne Saels we felt that she would organise for us an unforgettable experience. Did we know much at that time.... Every detail was perfectly organised, from our landing in Dar-Es-Salaam till we left Tanzania 10 days later. The Private House in Jabali Ridge was a scenery from a movie, no more no less.... I can't find enough superlatives to describe our stay. Also many compliments to the staff and the guides of AlisiaAfrica. In one word: Priceless!!!!

Amazing honeymoon trip in Ruaha - Tanzania
Anne, at Afric' Aventure, did a tremendous job on listening to our needs and effectively delivering on the high expectations we had to organize our honeymoon. As we were looking for a less touristy safari place and small luxury boutique feel resort, she made all her honeymoon dreams come true. We certainly for our next trip to Africa, will contact Anne again as we hope to return to this beautiful continent for our upcoming multiple wedding anniversaries!

Best service you can wish for.
Dear Anne.
Thank you for arranging an Absolut 5 star Safari to Serengeti the 16th August 2024. Everything was perfect from the beginning to the end including the balloon flight, no doubt an experience of a lifetime. You have made arrangements for us before and it certainly won't be the last : )
PS. We did see the Big 5.
With best regards.

Asanterra assures friendly, efficient and expert attention to your personalised safari experience.
We have been clients of Asanterra since 2016. Since the beginning of our Tanzanian safari experience, we have been most impressed by and highly satisfied with the impeccable planning and services provided. The camps we have stayed at in Ruaha (Mdonya Old River, Mwagusi Safari camp) and Selous (Selous Impala, Lake Manze), each with its own character and charm, have all been excellent in terms of location, accommodation, food, and the game drive experience. Anne Saels and her staff are highly reactive in the event of plan changes (e.g. flight cancellations or changes) and are always readily available to answer any questions you may have. Anne's experience and knowledge really show!
