Amazing experience
5/5

We booked a 16 day trip to Kenya with Best Memory Safaris. The trip started off with a relaxing trip to Kiabethu tea farm, which was much needed after a full day of travel. Then we proceeded with our 10-day safari, and finally capped it off with 5 days at beautiful Diani Beach. During the booking process, Isaac was very responsive and provided excellent service and recommendations. I was skeptical at first communicating with someone in Africa over Whatsapp and then subsequently wiring over money. But Isaac proved to be trustworthy, and everything went very smoothly! The trip was well planned from beginning to end. We were able to visit many of the major national parks/reserves, staying in some very cool lodges along the way. I highly recommend Best Memory Safaris to others looking to experience the magic of Kenya.

Anthony, our driver, was also a rock star. Anthony drove us around Kenya for 12 straight days without a map. All the while, he was friendly, professional, and informative. He was able to tell us the names and behaviors of every single animal we came across. He taught us a bit of Kamba and Swahili. Anthony knew exactly where to go to find certain animals, and could spot them in the distance. In Masai Mara, he was able to spot a cheetah laying in tall grass about 60 meters away. I'm truly amazed at his eyesight, the man definitely eats his carrots. Anthony genuinely wanted us to enjoy ourselves, see all the animals, and get as much out of the trip as possible. And most importantly, we felt safe in his care. Many thanks to Anthony and Isaac for a great trip!

The guides were excellent. All are nation sly certified and could spot animals from afar
5/5

There was not a single downside to the safari. The accommodations were excellent (each had its own unique style), the food was fantastic and plentiful, the safaris were amazing, and the vehicles immaculate. We did many of the parks and also a night and walking safari. Bthe guides are experts at locating animals. Each park was wonderful. We topped off the trip with a few days at the beach (I highly recommend everyone do this). It was a 10/10 experience (and I have been on other safaris that I enjoyed… just not as much as this one). I am recommending #bestmemorysafaris to all my friends.

Great Adventure
5/5

My wife and I did the 14 day Bush to Beach Safari and everything was spectacular. Our Safari operator Isaac arranged everything including airport pickups and drop offs, hotels, and park passes. We met out Safari driver Steve at the hotel in Nairobi and he took great care of us on our 10 day safari before doping us off in Daini beach resort. Steve did an incredible job as a safari guide, pointing out all sorts of animals and teaching us about them. He was also our ambassador of Kenyan Culture and taught us a lot about Kenyan customs and traditions. The hotels booked for us were all amazing with new wonders each day. This was our first time to East Africa and we were truly impressed. We highly recommend this for anyone looking for a great adventure.

Amazing Experience with Isaac and Best Memory Safari. We will return again next year.
5/5

Our group of 5 traveled from the US to Kenya during the pandemic. Isaac guided our experience and we had an unforgettable time with Best Memory.

We experienced the busy city of Nairobi, we went on safari in the Mara, Mombasa and the coast. We did so much during our experience. I highly recommend people spend at least 10 -14 days with Best Memory to get a complete understanding of Kenya. They worked really hard to make sure we saw as many animals as we could while on safari.

Our group saw more of the country than many of the locals based on what some of the locals told us. Isaac is also very well connected. He was able to connect a couple of people in our group with a strategic partner.

I can not say enough great things about Best Memory Safari other than you should trust their knowledge, expertise and book with them.

Truly unforgettable Safari Experience
5/5

We did nine days safari (Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Nake Naivasa, Amboselli, Taita Hill Sanctuary and Tsavo East) Antony was excellent in animal tracking. Could saw Lions and Cheetah many times. In fact we had kind of National Geographic experience when Cheetah hunted the wild beast. Could see lots of animals including big five just except Rhino. All the lodges and tents were amazing with very good food. We saw Hippos roaming in Lake Naivasa Country Club. Salt Lick Safari Lodge had excellent animal watching all day long. Very unique experience.
However, I found that their management was worst.
For lunch had to wait more than half hours in a crowded place. Room was not ready even at 2: 30 pm. If they could improve their management, I would still recommend Salt Lick Safari since their animal watching from the room, bar, restaurant- all were excellent experience.
Overall, we had un-forgettable best memories, no doubt. Isaac was very responsive from the beginning. Many times he showed flexibility of editing plans based on my request. He agreed on full payment after arrival and no prepayment. Also, I found that he offered a competitive price in comparison to the other operators I approached.

Amazing memories in Kenya
5/5

The 7-day private tour with my husband was amazing ! We visited Masai Mara, Lake Naivaisha, Amboseli and Tsavo East, ending in Diani Beach. Isaac was 100% available to answer my questions before and during the trip. He was able to modify the original trip offer to end in Diani Beach which was perfect for our plans. Anthony our guide was very knowledgeable, easy going and friendly. He adapted himself to our rythm and needs. The hotels were all great, confortable and with delicious food. I recommend Best Memory Safaris for the excelent service and the reasonnable price.

A Magical Experience
5/5

The Safari with Best Memory Safari was better than we could have imagined! Anthony, our guide and driver, was so knowledgeable and amazing at spotting animals. The places they booked our nights stay at, were so beautiful, and each unique. The food was so delicious! We saw many animals and loved watching them and learning about them. Definitely something we will never forget and so grateful we went with Best Memory Safari!!

5/5

We travelled as a familiy with our Teen Twins, Antony, our driver, did everything to make us happy, he became a friend! We had to make many changes due to a health problem of one of our kids and they, Antony and Isaac, did everything to arrange last minute changes. The experience in Kenya became so special b/ o Isaac and Antony. We absolutely highly can recommend Best memory safaris. We will always tour with them when we are in Kenya next time.

Excellent
5/5

We were 2 families with young kids. Isaac and his team were very accommodative to most of our needs. Our trip was a real long Vaccation of 17 days and we are still enjoying our beach holidays.

Safari experiences were great and knowledge of Isaac and Steve was great enough to make our this trip memorable.

Amazing ! Recommandation by heart - one of our best vacations ever !!! Excellent from Day 1-10 !!!
5/5

To choose Bestmemorysafari for our Safari Tour was for sure one of the best decisions ever - it was a once in a lifetime vacation with such great experience & a fantastic adventure ! From second one Issac was in contact with us to arrange the safari. He always responded quickly, was more than polite, friendly, understanding, flexible, open for individual wishes and greeted us personally at Nairobi airport! There we met Timothy - an experienced guide - who we can only recommend as well ! He has a great feeling for the perfect spots & times to see the animals as near as possible (i'm talking about 0.5-2 m far from the car !) Therefore thanks to him we were able to see the BIG5 any many more! He knows everything about them & can answer you any question you have about the animals, landscape, culture and people living in Kenia - its amazing! He was with us the 10 days & was such a great company - we really wanna say thank you at this point! From the first second we sat in the Safari Jeep (we would absoulty recommend to take the Jeep instead of the Van) we felt safe, happy & excited! We lacked nothing- cold water was provided in the Jeep. The lodges & camps we stayed in were amazing !!! Beautiful views & hotelrooms, very nice people, a welcoming feeling, very clean & comfortable - the best ones we would say ! (We googled some hotels near the ones we stayed in and the ones you have with this tour were absoulty the best ones - like a oasis in the middle of nowhere) ! Issac and Timothy were both always in contact with us, in time, reliable and friendly so we never felt alone or lost. To write something about the tour in general is difficult for us, 'cause we're not sure if we will ever find words for all the adventures, beautiful views & emotions we expirienced on the safari ! Those sights & moments might be a indiscirible once in a lifetime thing - we would wish every person possible to have ! Its just stunning!!! This safari tour by bestmemorysafari also had really everything we wished a safari to have - early morning-, afternoon-, fullday- drives, a boatour, the possibilty to do a walking or riding safari (we would really recommend to do!!!), a nightdrive, to visit a massai-village (an experience so great & a meeting of such lovely, friendly, proud people!), a walking safari (we just say: we walked 2m next to a crocodile!) and so much more ! You really get the full Safari experience with this 10-day Kenia tour ! Every day, every hotel & every park has it own flair, animals, landscape, adventures! To sum it up... you see thats not easy & thats not even a little of all the big great impressions you would get on this safari... we can only recommend bestmemorysafari by heart !!! Thank you Issac & Timothy for this great time - we will never forget! With lovely greetings from Germany, S.& A.
