Established in 1994, Tanzanian based ‘African Adventure Now’ offers the opportunity for a private, small-group safari with the empahsis on what you want to see and do. Experience the wildlife, cultures, parks and scenery of Tanzania up close and personal. Enjoy the freedom and security of unstructured travel with an expert guide - someone with the knowledge to find the wildlife - then approach it for the best viewing and photography. John Balletto, our chief guide, will deliver a personalized trip - a unique and memorable adventure. With sixteen-year experience, John is a nationally known expert in his beloved Tanzania. He will have you in awe of his knowledge of the wildlife, their habits and the environment of his homeland, and the Serengeti.

We had a very exciting adventure with John Balletto in the Serengeti. He allowed us to tailor our own itinerary, accommodating our interests in bird photography. We came home with images beyond our expectations that could never have been achieved without John.
