Maravilloso Safari y equipo
Diana from Venture Africa organized an amazing trip for us which took us to Maasai Mara, Lake Navaisha, Hells Gate and Amboseli. Diana kept in contact with us during the entire booking process. Our driver and guide for the trip was the fantastic, Solomon who was extremely knowledgeable and untiringly ensured that we saw as many animals as possible. On our trip we saw many different animals in all kinds of situations and were lucky enough to see all kinds of baby animals. The accommodation provided on safari was excellent and the vehicle was comfortable.
I would wholeheartedly recommend both Diana and Solomon for anyone looking for an unforgettable, value for money safari experience in Kenya.

Very professional driver, excellent accomodation, wonderful places
Safari has been amazing. The place where we stayed, the Farms of Dreams lodge, was stunning.
We got picked up on time at Arusha airport, first day at Tarangire park, we could spot Antilopes, Elephants, Wildebeests, Zebras, Giraffes, Velvet Monkeys and from far away also a Cheetah. There are facilities at the entrace of the park. Tumsifu, our guide, has always been very professional, friendly and ready to answer all our questions. Packed lunch food was good.
Second day, Ngorongoro crater was very nice. The place itself is gorgeous, and full of animals. A lot of wildebeests and zebras, but we could also spot lions, hippos and a rhino from far away.
Third day, lake Manyara, very nice, more rainforest environment. Close encounter with elephants and baboons.
Farms of Dreams lodge was fantastic. People are very friendly and make you feel always good. I'd really like to be back there.
Only 1 little trouble in the beginning, dealing with payments. We would have liked to pay by card or bank transfer, but system was not properly working and they told us that the safari was supposed to be paid in cash only few days before leaving. But that got fixed easily.

Below average info and not very accommodating
The company did not provide much info or interpretation on the parks (Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater) they brought us to or the animals we saw. There was one guides who was a wealth of knowledge, but the other two guides (including our truck) barely said anything and when we asked something the answers were short and basic. Also, we asked to go deeper into the park to see the great migration and the drivers made excuses without trying to accommodate us, see how it could work or explain why it couldn’t. Finally, they promised us an “extra special” stop on our last day and then didn’t do anything about it even when reminded. Overall there was a lack of info and communication and they just told us what they thought we wanted to hear, true or not.

Very professional organisation, taking good care of tourists, porters and guides. Pole pole
Snowcap gives value for money. They responded quickly by mail to any request. Payment was possible though bank transfer. The team took the time to meet us before the start of the hiking, explaining well what we could expect and checking our materials. What is missing could be rented. Punctual pick up at the hostal. We felt safe and well supptorted. The director met us again after our return the day after to check if everything was up to expectations. The guides were very professional and really helped us to reach the summit. The guide also helped us in taking the appropriate decision to go done with one of our kids who suffered altitude illness.nFood was abundant and very good.

Wonderful safari
We were travelling with our 3 children and wanted a tailor-made 4 night Safari in Tanzania's North. Noah answered very quick with a very good and professional offer. Therefore we booked neary a year in advance and were very much looking forward to it.
The guide (Hamza) was very kind and an experienced and safe driver. He had also a very good eye for the animals. The hotels were carefully selected. We very much liked the Ilkome Safari Lodge (great Serengeti-View & Wildbeest Migration next to the lodge / extremely kind Manager) and the Tloma Mountain Lodge (huge rooms; location & staff was excellent...)
The car was maybe a bit older, but comfortable. Over all it was a lifetime experience for us and our expectations were exceeded by far. Thanks Wildbeest Safaris!!!

Amazingly beautiful and super arranged
We had our safari in June (2018). It was super nice. The guide did a great job. Beautiful accommodations and we have seen amazing things. If we would go again, we will definitely book here again !!
I found the booking and compiling of the trip a real plus. You can make it as crazy as you want. We would recommend it to everyone.

Off2Africa was easy to deal with. We enjoyed our trip and could not fault them on any aspect.
Tifiny at Off2Africa was very helpful with our itinerary. Our holiday was well planned and enjoyable for the whole family.
