Our safari was a wonderful, exciting 6 days, full of beautiful animals, people and geography.
Snow Africa Adventures set up a wonderful 6 day safari for my husband, daughter, and myself. Florent was very response throughout the process of setting up the safari to picking us up at the airport, and then meeting us the last day to check-in with us about our experience. The accommodation arrangements were really beautiful, especially the Ngorongoro Farm House Lodge and the Kubukubu Luxury Tented Lodge and the food was delicious. Lorry was our tour guide and was excellent - very knowledgeable, personable, and funny. We saw so many animals both in Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. It was an amazing experience! Thank you Snow Africa Adventures!

Once in a lifetime experience
Snow Africa did an incredible job putting together an amazing safari without much lead time. They were responsive, flexible, and professional. A friend of mine recommended Snow Africa, and I'm so glad they did! My parents and I did a 5 day safari to Ngorongoro crater, Manyara, with 2 days in Serengeti + bonus lazy Saturday in Arusha.
We stayed in amazing tented lodges along the way. Each day was filled with incredible game drives. Our guide/driver Lorry was funny, knowledgeable and very flexible when we rolled out of bed a bit late. We kept looking at each other and saying it was a once in a lifetime experience. We saw hippos (my favorite), cheetahs, a leopard, many lions, and even saw a genet!
It was amazing!

a trustworthy company, always at the attention of its customers
On September 20, 2018 we went trekking Kilimanaro on the Machame road and a safari 4 days 3 nights in a camping package. Extraordinary holidays with a team of guide and extraordinary bearer. Always a little care with us so that the trek be a success all along the line.
A Ngorongoro and Sarengeti Crater Camping Safari with a very safe guide and plenty of experience to spot the animals.
For us Florent Ipananga is a man of confidence just like the company Snow Africa Adventure.
Congratulations Snow Africa Adventure you have made us live a great adventure

Great Experience for our first Safari thanks to John!
First of all the meeting at the airport went without any problems. We found John, our guide, very easily and then our adventure directly started. 5 minutes after arriving in Tarangire National Park we have seen already Elephants, Giraffes, Zebras and Wilderbeasts. And this was only the beginning! John drove us to many different places where we could see a lot of different animals. Already on the first day, we had the pleasure of spotting a deluge of different & many animals.
Thanks to John, as he has an eagle sight and could spot almost anything out there and could also give us a lot of information about the different animals that we have and haven't seen yet.
Apart from that we also enjoyed talks with John very much (as example at the dinner or lunch) about anything (e.g lifestyle, education, history, politics, private life) of Tanzania.
The accommodation provided exceeded any expectation, being in middle of the wild life, having a Zebra pee in front of our window in middle of the night. Even walking at night could be dangerous during the night (hello to the Zebra on the path), so Maasai protection was available. The lodge itself was beautifully decorated and very clean, additional bonus is a beautiful terrace and a garden shower. Of course we cannot forget about the swimming pool (no time to use sadly) with the panorama view over the park, filled with Zebras, Elephants, Giraffes, Antilopes.
The 2nd day we went to the Lake Manyara National Park, where we could see & experience a totally different natural environment (from tropical forests to savanna and swamps). The last but not least, John was among the first to spot a Leopard (apparently the hardest to spot). Therefore and thanks to that, during 2 days we could spot 4 out of the African Big Five Animals. (Rhinos were not living in the parks we visited).
It was very pleasant to meet Florent (the owner of the company), who then was also so kind to drive us to our next destination. Overall this trip exceeded our expectations, especially for our first safari ever. We would have never expected to see so many different animals in such a short time.

Went to the Arusha NP. Clear communication, great tour, highly recommended.
Florent came by our hotel in order to sort out our last minute booking and details of the tour. This helped a lot, and the tour reflected our communication.
Our driver, John, was really helpful with anything we needed, the car was comfortable, and in general, the trip was really rewarding. The walking safari was really great as well, the park ranger at Arusha NP was professional and made our tour enjoyable.

Great experience with Snow Africa in Tanzania!
We did 2 tours with Snow Africa. The first one was the Kilimanjaro Trek via Machame Route (7 days) and a 3 day safari through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti.
On the Kilimanjaro Trek we went along with our 2 guides, 1 cook and porters. They have always taken very good care of us, we have always got fresh, boiled water to drink and for clean up ourself. Joshua our chef was a really great cooker, especially his soups! Every evening we have a 3-course menu and lunch boxes/hot lunches during the day. Our guides, Julius and Hussein, were also very nice, they told us a lot about themselves and their life in Tanzania. From the walking pace they have adapted to us and also as we did not so well because of altitude sickness, they took good care of us. Although we did not have much to do with the Porters, they were always friendly to us. The work they do is very exhausting and hard, but you always seem them laughing. It was a pleasure to have met this team!
After Kilimanjaro and a break in Zanzibar, we came back to the Mainland for a Safari. We decided to do the Safari with Snow Africa, because we were really happy with the owner Florent and the Trek before. We did a private 3 day safari through the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and the Serengeti. We stayed in 2 different public camps in the nationalparks in tents with our guide Benjamin and the same chef Joshua like on the Kilimanjaro trek. Our guide was really friendly and knows a lot about animals and the nationalparks. Because of him, we saw a lot of animals, especially our wish for male lions, actually we spotted the BIG Five.
We can only recommend Snow Africa and would do a tour with them anytime we came back to Tanzania. Everything was well planned and organized. Thanks for everything!

Tanzanian Safari
A group of 7 from Australia and Canada recently travelled to Tanzania for a safari. We had to have this "safari" tailor made to suits our needs and Florent from Snow Africa Adventures organised this trip for us. Right from the start he was very accommodating with our requests and a great communicator.
He arranged for us to be picked up at the airport in Kilimanjaro - then onto a 4 day safari and a drop off to Nairobi. The guides LORRY and CHEEMA he had organised for us were great as were the lodges.
Thank you Florent, Lorry and Cheema for making our safari adventure memorable. I would highly recommend Florent and his team.
Hope to be back one day :)

A very good experience
I would highly recommend Snow Africa Adventures.
Our tour was custom made to suit our needs (We were a group of seven friends) and Florent did a great job in making sure that we had a comfortable trip. Our drivers and guides- Lorry and Cheeba were excellent communicators and very knowledgeable about the places we were taken to, as well as the animals.
We got to see more animals than we had expected. The lodges as well as the tented accommodation were comfortable and had all the facilities we had expected and more. The vehicles provided to us were in good condition and well suited for the safari.
Florent responded promptly to our emails and there was complete clarity, in advance about the customization of our trip. I would definitely go with Snow Africa again.

Very well organised within our budget and time frame.
From pick up at Kilimanjaro airport to drop off at Arusha four days later, a very satisfying experience. Florent the organiser, Chiba and Lorrie the drivers all very friendly and knowledgeable. The animals were amazing!
No hesitation in recommending Snow Africa Adventures to friends and other tourists.
