Memorable Safari trip
The visit to Masai Mara was the highlight of the trip. We also visited Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and the Amboseli National Park. The accommodations in tented camps were very comfortable with great food and service. Our guide was very helpful and made sure we saw all the animals. We didn't spend a lot of time in Nairobi but the giraffe center is worth a quick visit specially for young children.

Highly recommended!
My family (me, my husband, and our 5-year-old) booked a 13-day safari trip. The communication with Anne was very smooth. We had Eluid as our guide in Kenya and Mike from Migada Adventures as our guide in Tanzania. Both of them were extremely professional, experienced, knowledgeable, and helpful.
We visited Masai Mara and Amboseli in Kenya, and Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Manyara, and Tarangire in Tanzania, and were able to see over thirty species of mammals and over one hundred species of birds. Also, we took pictures and videos of wildebeests migrating, lions mating, elephants with babies, etc,...
Anne helped us arrange a night safari in Lake Manyara, which was also awesome. We were able to see some bushbabies and genets there.
This trip is truly AMAZING MEMORY for my family!

It was more than we expected, and an overall excellent experience, that i will recommend to everyone
It proved to be a great experience. We had excellent sightings through out the trip. The tour guide, Peter, was not only an extremely friendly person but was a very seasoned and knowledgeable guide. And was able to take us to the right spots for these sightings. Our camps were best in class with the available amenities made our stay extremely luxurious.

Great communication and a well organised safari operator
Amazing Memories Safaris were very organised and always communicated promptly. The initial planning of the safari revealed good knowledge of the safari options and answered all of my questions. Everything from transport, hotel and food organisation and the actual safari tours were great. We managed to see so many animals during our visit to Amboseli park, Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara national parks. All three parks had their own beauty and were worth visiting. The kids said it was their best holiday ever! I would certainly recommend booking with Amazing Memories Safaris

perfect trip impeccable
Helped us make travel plans and change hotels according to our needs a few weeks before departure Everything was arranged perfectly and nothing could be faulted. Our driver and tour guide told us a lot about animals along the way and introduced Kenya. Thank you amazing memories.

Fabulous family holiday July 23
Our family took a safari trip to Kenya and Tanzania in July 2023. Amazing Memories organised every step of the journey providing kind, professional and friendly staff. We would definitely recommend them again.

Amazing Memories Safaris certainly lived up to their name!
We decided to use a local Kenyan company and we’re so glad we did! Communication with Anne and her team was excellent. We chose the Kenyan and Tanzanian tour with Zanzibar extension which was fantastic! Our guides Daniel and Mike were knowledgeable, great drivers and good fun! Accommodation was great as were the amazing things we saw, which surpassed what we imagined… a leopard eating a gazelle up a tree, elephants mating, cheetahs stalking, lionesses resting up a tree, cute baby elephants, giraffes, monkeys galore, some great sunsets….and the list goes on. I would highly recommend using this company! If you are thinking of going, just do it!

Thank you for an Amazing Memory in Kenya and Tanzania!
Hi Anne… We are home safe and recovering from jet lag… But wanted to let you know that we had an absolutely amazing safari!
Everything you planned from us was just perfect… We love the Maasai Mara, we loved the Serengeti, we love the crater, and we loved Amboseli! Each place had their own special, personality and charm.
We love love loved our guides, Musa and Moses, especially Musa!
The accommodations were awesome… we fell in love with the staff at each place… each had their own unique personality. Our favorite was the beautiful, beautiful, kudu safari lodge… We felt like we were in heaven!
As far as animals… we saw over 60 lions, and hundreds of elephants, zebras, baboons, giraffes, hippos, and buffaloes! Our guides worked hard to make sure we saw the Big 5! What a thrill!
Thank you from the bottom of very full hearts… We definitely had a life-changing experience and fell in love with your beautiful country.❤️

Amazing Memories Safaris made our trip unforgetable and worth every minute, every dollar!
Already at 1st contact with Amazing Memories Safaris (AMS) - for our group of six (all 65+) - It felt good...The so many positive reviews on Tripadvisor could not lie.
And Anne and team are indeed always willing to work out a tailor-made program, regardless of the many questions and changes that preceded it… It turned out to be a 14 days safari: Kenya (Masai Mara 3n. + 2n Amboseli) & Tanzania (Serengeti 3n, Ngorongoro/Lake Manyara 2n, Kutoka 1n)-.
Transport to and from the airport, and with overnight stays in Nairobi, on arrival, but also before the return flight. (! Royal Tulip Canaan****)
1st part of the trip with driver/guide James and it was immediately noticeable that he was going to teach us a lot. His knowledge and experience with 'wildlife' added value and it was especially striking that he did not make atypical rounds in Masai Mara NP to look for game. We often felt like being alone in the vast game park… The close encounters with lions, cheta's, leopard, to name a few, they remain etched on the retina...
Toilet visits? In case of emergency, a suitable bush/place is sought… There are also 'washrooms' at places, known by drivers and where they give time to stretch the legs…Sometimes there is possibility to have the lunch package there too.
Masai Mara Simba Lodge was our dream location; on the Mara River.
Most of our trip was through Tanzania. Orher jeep, new driver (Santos). This substitution took place in the neutral zone between the two countries.
Serengeti was going to be the highlight of our Safari!
Serengeti NP has enchanted us, because of the atmosphere, its wide plains, its abundance of animals, the experience in itself.
Here you will be silent with intense happiness! And when a scenario emerges in which hundreds of thousands of animals gather to migrate, it is difficult to realize how unique it is to be able to experience this. Seeing the phenomenon of migration, in a documentary so many years ago, was the reason to come here… And there you are…
Impressive how Wildebeests,zebras, gazelles…move through the area in large numbers, looking for grass and water. Santos had promised us from the very beginning that we would experience 'it'!
He was also able to fascinate us: with his knowledge and trained eye, partly due to years of experience. And did he take care of us!
Considering our age, he suggested to adjust the program, especially departures. Always being extremely concerned.
Here too, everything was done for the well-being of the customer and we could absolutely appreciate this.
Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge is impressive; and felt home for 3 nights. (One has to ask assistance for movements in the dark…)
Ngorongoro Conservancy, with its unique crater, is in itself a special experience and being able to view wildlife there is a dream …
The view from Ngorongoro Serena Lodge is breathtaking…
Lake Manyara Serena
Lodge and the small but oh so surprising Kutoka Lodge - near Arusha - offered us a few days of rest and relaxation before getting back to Kenya…
Changing jeep & driver/guide.
Peter had the thankless task of still being able to impress us, after what we had already experienced.
But Amboseli is unique because of the fact that you will find the largest herds of elephants in the world, in relation to the size of the park.
We could admire large groups with little ones by sunset! And to our surprise there were still flamencos. No doubt this was a nice conclusion to an unforgettable safari trip.
Thanks Anne, Amazing Memories Safaris , guides & all people who had part in giving us a trip of a lifetime!!!

Amazing Memories Safaris :-)
Our first visit to Kenya was truely amazing!
We had the perfect trip organizied for us - from the very first contact up until our departure back to Germany. Many thanks to Nairobi.
Our favourite destinations for game drives were Samburu and Amboseli followed by Maasai Mara, Ol Pejeta and Tsavo.
Sweetwaters Serena Camp and Kibo Safari Camp were outstanding accommodations.
Specail thanks to our awesome driver guide who would do everything to make our trip an extraordinary experience that will stay in our memories forever.
There is so much to learn from him and it was a pleasure to spend so much time with him. He is an excellent driver and is also resprectful with the nature and stays on the trails unlinke some other driver guides that will leave the trails to bring the tourists extremely close to the animals.
The driver guides are very well connected. So you will definitevly see all the animals!
