The best Safari we could imagine - Booking a safari in Tanzania is not an easy decision because there are so many different options. We had one clear plan: we wanted to see the Ngorongoro Crater. However, organizing this from Zanzibar for just a 2-day safari was quite challenging. Many operators only offered 3-day safaris that included Ngorongoro Crater, while others were extremely expensive. Another important factor for us was that we wanted to spend only one night away from Zanzibar, and we also had a relatively small budget. In the end, I found that The Face of Africa could provide exactly what we were looking for. I got in touch with Hamadi and asked about prices and tours. From the very first minute, Hamadi was incredibly supportive. He offered us many different options, explained everything in detail, and answered all of our questions. Since we reached out quite close to our travel dates (just 2–3 weeks before), time was working against us. At first we weren’t 100% happy with the proposal, but Hamadi adjusted it several times until we were fully satisfied. In fact, we made our final decision only about a week before the safari, when we were already in Zanzibar. We did face a small issue with the payment process because our bank wouldn’t allow us to transfer money directly to the company’s account. Hamadi quickly provided us with a payment link so we could pay by credit card. This came with an additional charge, but it was the only feasible solution. Once the payment was completed, our trip was confirmed. On the morning of our flight we were picked up from the hotel. This is maybe the only point of criticism: the pick-up was scheduled quite late, and due to heavy traffic we almost missed our flight from Zanzibar to Arusha. We arrived just 25 minutes before departure, and the airport staff told us we were very late. They rushed us through security and straight onto the bus where all other passengers were already waiting. It was a close call. Not really Hamadi’s fault, but I would suggest scheduling pick-up at least half an hour earlier to avoid this stress. After landing in Arusha, we were greeted by our safari guide. He explained the plan for the day and even gave us a small gift from Hamadi — a cap and a water bottle from The Face of Africa. A very nice gesture. Our first stop was Tarangire National Park. It was a long drive, and we arrived around 10 or 11 a.m. to begin our safari. The experience was amazing — we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, monkeys, and more. Our guide made sure we got the most out of it, and we really enjoyed every moment. In the evening we drove to our hotel near Ngorongoro Crater. It was a small place still partly under construction, so the atmosphere was a little different than usual, but the staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was good, the rooms were clean, and the overall vibe was pleasant. We had a good night’s sleep before starting early the next morning for our second day at Ngorongoro. The crater safari was again absolutely breathtaking. We saw so many animals, and our guide was always attentive, answering our questions and taking us exactly where we wanted to go. It truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. On the way back to the airport, we stopped for food and then continued safely to our flight. Since Hamadi couldn’t meet us in person, he called us to check that everything was fine, which we really appreciated. The flight back to Zanzibar was on time, and upon arrival we were picked up at the airport without delay and returned safely to our hotel. All in all, the safari was perfectly organized, and we couldn’t have asked for more. If we had known in advance how incredible it would be, we would definitely have booked 3–4 days instead of just 2. It was one of the best experiences of our lives. We give this safari a clear 10/10. The price was a little high, but since it was a last-minute booking, that was to be expected. Booking earlier would certainly have been cheaper. We would like to thank Hamadi and The Face of Africa for everything they did for us. We will carry this safari in our hearts forever, and whenever someone asks me for a safari recommendation in Africa, I will always recommend The Face of Africa. I also hope to do another safari with them in the future.

A memorable trip that we recommend without hesitation! - We had an unforgettable experience during our safari in Tarangire and Ngorongoro. A huge thank you to Hamadi, the CEO, for his perfect organization and great responsiveness, especially during a concern encountered on our return flight: everything was managed quickly and efficiently. A special thanks to Emmanuel, our guide driver, for his kindness, professionalism and exceptional knowledge of wildlife and nature. Thanks to him, we had unique moments. A memorable trip that we recommend without hesitation!
