6 days safari tour with Amazing Memories
We spent 6 days on safari with Amazing Memories. The communication was great from the beginning and they even booked train tickets for us as we continued to Mombasa after the safari tour.
Our driver John was awesome! He was really kind, funny and explained us a lot about animals as well as life in Kenia. He always tried to accommodate our needs and wishes.
We really enjoyed the time on safari as well the time with John and it was an unforgettable trip (so far our best vacation :)).
We definitely recommend Amazing Memories to everyone thinking about go on a safari!

An Amazing Safari with Amazing Memories
My husband and I decided to have a private Safari in Kenya and Tanzania, and because of the reviews, we decided to request a quote from Amazing Memories. Our initial discussion was with Anne, as we finalised the itinerary, and after booking, we were in contact with Brian as he helped us through visa applications and date changes.
Basically, if you are going on Safari to East Africa, don't hesitate to contact Amazing Memories.
From the beginning, the responses were swift. They provided us with options, changed plans as we thought fit, helped us when we needed additional information for the Tanzanian visa and even changed the dates of the safari when we needed it.
All the accommodation options that were provided were great. We went with the Serena hotel chain and do not regret it. I urge you to do your own research regarding accommodation as sometimes, the rating won't quite match the standard (which is understandable, as they are all lodges in the middle of National Parks).
Our driver in Kenya was Joseph, and our driver in Tanzania was Mike. We enjoyed traveling with both of them. They were friendly professionals who knew much about the landscape and animals. They made it their mission to get us the Big 5, which we did, and they made sure to put our comfort first.
The itinerary they provided was well thought of, and the logistics were well planned. Our check in and check out processes were quick. We decided to drive through the Isebania border which is an 8 hour drive, and Joseph and Mike really did the heavy lifting and got us safely from one country to another.
The best aspect of Amazing Memories was the unlimited amount of water bottles they provided us throughout this journey. All the safari lodges provided only two bottles of water per day, so we were never without clean, filtered water.
I will continue to recommend Amazing Memories Safaris as they made the entire experience seamless. They handled everything. All we had to do was land and let them take over. We switched off our brains and enjoyed the experience of a wonderful safari.

We had a very good Safari with Amazing Memories Safaris. The cottages/ Tents were too good. The food was excellent. Our tour Guide (James) was very Cooperative and Humble & had a good net work, thus we could see a lot of animals and birds. Thanks to Amazing Memories Safaris & Anne for arranging such a nice tour.

They live up to their name -- Amazing!
Such an incredible trip! Anne did a wonderful job helping us organize, and she was very responsive to our many questions and requests for input. Because of the recent floods, we had to make some last minute changes to our accomodations, and Anne handled this brilliantly. Our guides, Joseph in Kenya and Raymond in Tanzania, were both top-notch -- professional, friendly and fun. When we returned to Kenya at the end of the trip, our final guide James was able to get us back safely from Amboseli to Nairobi despite road closures -- his local knowledge was invaluable! By the way, it's definitely worth it to pay a little bit more to have the large Land Cruiser throughout the safaris. Do NOT skip Ngorongoro Crater! Thank you, Amazing Safaris!

A once-in-a-lifetime experience
I can’t speak highly enough of the team at Amazing Memories. From the very beginning, Nevill worked with us to tailor our safari to our budget and was very courteous and professional throughout the whole process, ensuring we got everything delivered exactly as we signed up for. Our safari guide Kim is one of a kind! He was very flexible, patient, informative and knowledgeable about the terrain, wildlife and kenyan culture and history. He is truly good at what he does and I hope many more families get the opportunity to go on safari with him. We experienced such a variety of wildlife over vast Maasai Mara terrain and the Mara river…from big cats, giraffes, hippos, elephants, hyenas and crocodiles to massive hoards of wildebeests to amazing bird species and so much more. Kim also took us on a couple cultural experiences with the Maasai people and tours of Lake Naivasha and the like. This was an experience of a lifetime and I can’t wait to do it again with Amazing Memories!

Best Masai Mara Safari ever
Amazing Memories is by far the best tour agency we spoke to after contacting may be 6-7 of them prior. Nevill who guided us from the start to the end of the trip was very helpful in answering all our questions , He helped us plan a perfect safari tour , in the end I must say we were impressed with the choices of their Camps for us . Joseph was our driver for the whole 5-6 days , he did a wonderful job driving us around the park . He was very accurate with all the spots and he knew all the special spots where we will find lions and cheetah. Totally we had 6 lion sightings and 3 cheetah sighting and umpteen number of Elephants , giraffes etc . we were 5 of us and by the end of the trip we were all happy and cheerful and wil be going back with amazing memories indeed . Thanks Specially to nevill & joseph . if you are planning a kenyan masai mara safari tour , consider them , you will be well taken care of .Don't forget to ask for Joseph as your driver .

Truly Amazing!
📍 Overall planning was great - from airport pickups to day-to-day itineraries, basically nothing to complain about 😉
📍 Spotted different wild animals in different reserves so it was hard to say which one was the best 👻
📍 We were lucky to be hosted by John who was super patient and professional - we got the chance to spot rarely-seen animals like Black Rhinos and the Wildebeest crossing 🥹
📍 It was such a magical experience so don’t hesitate to ask for a proposal 👍🏻

Amazing Memories Safaris is the wise choice
It really gives me an amazing memories. Nevill helps me arrange the whole journey reasonably. and our guide Peter is the best guide. He has the excellent driving skill, and also is an animal expert. He can take us to find the animal we want to see. And appreciate for his efforts, finally we saw the great migration- wildebeests across the Mara river, which is really magnificence sight.
Thanks Nevill, Peter and Amazing Memories Safaris. I am sure there will be the next time to visit Kenya, and hope to see you again.

Once in a lifetime experience
It lives up to its name - AMAZING! John was our guide and driver and he was very knowledgable, patient and supportive. We learnt so much about animals from him during the trip and saw what we wanted to see thanks to John. We even witnessed the river crossing which was definitely the highlight of the trip. For those who are considering, go with Amazing Memories Safari and you will not be disappointed.
