Hiking Mt. Kilimanjaro with Dismas.
5/5

A+ in all categories. Brian was invaluable in the planning and his communications and explanations made the pre-trip planning oh, so easy.
The expectations...hmmm, getting to summit Mt. Kilimanjaro was a once in a life time experience. Because of my Dismas, my guide, cook, and my porters, I experience NO physical effects and just had a wonderful time.
If you think you can't.....you can with Ecological Wilderness Adventures :-)

We were a group of 10 people from Germany looking for a memorable trip through Kenya and we got that
5/5

Hello

Im Joy. I was on a 4 day safari(Mara, Naivasha, Amboseli) + 4 day Mombasa trip (28.03.2016 - 04.04.2016) with a group of 9 people from Germany. This trip was organised by Amazing Memories Safaris in Nairobi.

As this was a big group I was in constant contact with Anne and Joseph because of various topics. I always got a reply on the same day or latest on the next day.

Before i decided to consider Amazing Memories for my group, i wrote other safari organisers just to compare itineraries and rates being offered. I decide on Amazing Memories because i got the best rates and because i generally got the feeling that they did their best to adjust the itinerary according to our wishes via the correspondence through the various emails and phone calls. They are very professional and flexible and always came through to our various requests regarding itinerary and pricing.

We were all satisfied with the choice of hotels and the organisation for the whole trip except one.
(Mara- Maasai Mara Nalepo Lodge;
Naivasha- Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp;
Amboseli- Amboseli AA Lodge;
Mombasa- Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort )
The only hotel which didn't meet our expectations was Mara Nalepo Lodge. They were friendly and the food was great but the facilities weren't all to good and up to the standards expected by us. I was told that there was a change in management and thats why things weren't up to standard. From our experince we would give the hotel a rating of 2 out of 5.
As for the 3 other hotels we would rate 5 out of 5. Everything was according to our expectations. My friends said these are hotels they would glady visit again.

As for our tour guide, his name was Joseph. We were completely and uterly satisfied with his competence and his information regarding all animals we saw. He was very friendly and we were lucky enough to see 4 of the big 5 amongst other animals. We would recommend him as a tour guide for anyone interested in taking a safari.

We were very pleased with our 8 day trip. All my friends had a memorable trip through Kenya. I would gladly recommend Amazing Memories Safaris as a safari organiser anytime. Should we plan another safari in the future, we would definitely organise this via Amazing Memories.

Experience the Real Africa
5/5

If you're looking for a customizable, adventurous, real Africa experience, you can't go wrong with Simba 4x4 tours and safaris. Malcom took us through the backcountry of Botswana, and we had truly authentic experiences that one might not get with other operators. If you're up for self-catering and camping in the wild, I highly recommend Malcolm and Simba 4x4 tours and safaris.

Awesome experience
5/5

I wanna thank the experience Kenya group for doing justice and making our safari to Kenya memorable over the Easter holiday, my wife joins me in thanking mr Eric Nyakanga for providing us with the right bookings in the hotel we slept and also giving a guide who understood the people animals and the roads. I wish to recommend experience Kenya as the right online company that understands its country thus giving out relevant details and travel advisories.Asante for making our trip worthwhile

Wonderful guide and tour!
5/5

We did a 3 days safari with Twaha to Murchison Falls and it was great. Twaha took good care about us and was really committed to provide us with a good service and bring us to all the different game driving spots. The accommodation and the food were excellent as well. I would definitely recommend Twaha as a safari guide :)

Florent runs a safe and professional tour. His porters are experienced and friendly. He kept a close eye on all members of our climb and all went as planned. I would use them again without question!

Unforgettable
4/5

We had such an amazing time in our travel.
I remember spending time in the Kruger park and we got to see so many great animals. Specially the big five and a leopard we spotted early in the morning.

I'm so happy I got this opportunity and having tour guides showing and telling us everything we waned to see. They make your travel experience unforgettable.

My Amazing Trip to Maasai Mara with Amazing Memories Safaris
5/5

Last year, I went on an 8-day safari in Kenya with my 14-year-old son, who was visiting the country for the first time. After identifying three tour operators and corresponding with them, we chose Amazing Memories Safaris. Our itinerary was: Samburu-the Aberdares (The Ark)-Nakuru-Maasai Mara. The company owner and director, Joseph, was very helpful in answering all our questions and, unlike the other operators that we contacted, he was most willing to organize the trip in accordance with our wishes. When the day of the safari came, we were met by Anne one of the Consultants who welcomed us officially for the safari. She was very welcoming and professional, which reassured us even more! Our accommodation – was very good: the rooms were spacious and clean, the food was fresh and delicious, and staff made us feel very much at home. The tour guide/driver, Joseph, with whom we spent most of the time, was always punctual, professional and helpful. He is a good storyteller and shared his deep knowledge of the wildlife, geography and people of the areas that we visited, and answered our many questions patiently. We saw the "big five" and many other creatures great and small. And in the parks, he did not always follow the well-trodden path, so we often spotted an animal or situation that everyone was hoping for. Joseph would then radio the information to his fellow tour guides/drivers to share it with the other tourists. We are thankful to Amazing Memories Safaris for enabling us to experience a most amazing safari! For my son, it was a life-changing introduction to the wild: from being extremely scared as we walked to our cottage from our lodge's dining area on our first evening in Samburu, to struggling to get back to his routine several weeks after the safari – because of all the wonderful memories! We are pleased to recommend this company to anyone wanting to go on a meaningful safari in Kenya.

Linda.
