Wildlife at your fingertips
The weather was poor due to climate change - the short dry season was supposed to be starting, but there were heavy rains and floods. Because of that there were less animals in Masai Mara than usually, but still there where plenty - I saw lions, leopards, cheetah, elephants, giraffes, hippos, gazelles, antelopes, monkeys, crocodiles, lizards and many species of birds. On the plus side - no mosquitoes and dramatic skies over the savannah. It was definitely worth to go.

The place is very cool
The beauty between the animals inside the cage and the free ones are way different. You will feel them alive and happy. It was very beautiful place to be!
However, there are part of the tour that we didnt do and did not advise us earlier why we are not doing it so. And im talking about the spring or thermal bath. We could have spend more time cycling than bringing us back to Nairobi, there are still plenty of time.

Magic scenery, amazing wildlife, unique experience, but the car broke 3 times...
The scenery and the experience was one in a lifetime.
The guide (driver) was very nice, took us to the good spots and we managed to see amazing wildlife.
The cook we had with us was also great and ate some delicious food.
Unfortunately the car was very old and let us down multiple times.
Overall the experience is something I strongly recommend but I counln'd leave out that the car gave us troubles.

An amazing experience. Mountaineering, Safari and Beach in a single trip.
Wildlife in Tanzania is overwhelming. Weather was not that good, with floods and long power cuts. Accommodations quite good, not so the lunch boxes during the Safari. Same food for six days. Transportation and guide excellent. It was worth it overall.

Great experience
We did Lake Naivasha and Masaai Mara with Eliud in 4 days. Lake Naivasha was really nice with great accommodation at Sopa Lodge. The hippos came at night near our house, the food was great. The weather was ok.
In Mara the accommodation would be good as well (Sarova Mara Game Camp), but it was raining some of the time, interrupted one of the game drives and was cold in the tent. Mara is too crowded, even in the shoulder season, you feel like in a big zoo rather than in the wild. We have a comparison as we traveled alone after the organized safari to Tsavo, which is peaceful but has far less animals to spot.
Eliud was a great companion to talk to and spend time with, professional and helpful. Would recommend his service to anybody as well as Amazing Memories Safaris as the organizers.

Amazing beautifull experience
Definetely worth to go in november, it is not so crowdy there are plenty of animals and big five too. I was impressed by the travel servis, they are soo helpfull and caring. Weather was just perfect, no rain at all. Prepare yourself for long hours in the car, the roads are bumpy. I highly recomend to take binoculars to admire sleeping cheetah on the branch or birds from long distans.

Beautiful spot on the River
The safari overall was spectacular, just so much fun seeing all the animals in their natural habitats. The time we were there (mid October) was very hot, we felt it and so did the animals. So because of the heat many of the animals were not out and about, but still very much enjoyed everything Lower Zambezi had to offer!

Still great wild life
Avoid popular game reserves. Too many vehicle safari travellers. Go to minor reserves such as Dinokeng near Pretoria. You can stay in the reserve and practically monopolize the nature. Few travellers. Safety is good opposed to typical travellers comments. Just don't do things or go to places you don't in your own country.

Great experience
I appreciated my trip with world tours and safaris . Great food, Nice staff. The only downside was the guide. He was more a driver than a guide. Overall, I liked my experience and it was possible I would have given them 4 stars and a half. The owner, mr.papa was really nice and even paid for my dinner afternthe safari. Their prices are very good.

Great place for close ecounters with wildlife
We had a 8 days trip to Madagascar in November 2019. We spend the time on east cost of the island - Andasibe & Palmarium Reserve. The wildlife was very good - lemurs are close and provide excelent opportunites for photography. Birds in Andasibe were good and approachable, a bit worse in Palmarium (very few visible). We used Assiten Travel and the service was excelent - very good accomodations, great driver, food and transportation.
Mine key target was to photograph lemurs and I am very happy with the results :).
