About us

PataPata Safaris was born from the meeting between two African boys, Etienne and Halidi, united by a passion for nature and animals way back in 2011, later joined by Mike.

 Etienne- Graduated in chemistry at the University of Pavia (Italy), after several years spent working in the medical-scientific field in Italy, he decided to make a dream come true by reconnecting with his continent of origin. He thus opens a tour operator to show travelers the extraordinary beauty of Africa. Etienne is the contact for PataPata Safaris in Europe, he lives and works in Italy.
