Perfect safari tour thanks to Amazing Memories Safaris!
It was the most memorable, amazing tour we've ever had thanks to the Amazing Memories Safaris. I would give it over five stars if I could! I would highly recommend this tour company and our guide Francis to my friends who consider safari tour in Kenya.
For your information, we are family of three (two adults and one seven-year-old boy) and took a private 6-day-safaris tour. (Nairobi-Amboseli(2 nights)-Nakuru(1)-Masai Mara(2)-Nairobi, and dropped by Lake Naivasha)
Prior to booking, I searched and compared many companies and contacted a few of them. I wanted to choose among Kato-bonded companies with good ratings and with not too expensive price. Amazing Memories Safaris was the most prompt and transparent company with great customer ratings and most reasonable price compared to the others. They showed from the beginning difference between mid-range and luxury tour, and price difference as well- which seemed reasonable. (Some companies would not specify accommodation, and I wanted to make decision fully informed) Anne has been very helpful, easy to communicate with - even with small details prior to and upon arrival in Kenya.
On safaris tour itself, it was the most amazing experience for us, thanks to our guide Francis. We could see all big five animals and much more! Also I really enjoyed hearing so many stories and much information about the animals and plants from Francis. Francis was the best guide we've ever met. He is a superb, knowledgeable, polite and kind guide. We could see that he was trying his very best to show us most animals on each site and he succeeded in it! We all thought we could see that many lions and a leopard, etc all thanks to his knowledge about animals and good decisions based on it. From the beginning to the end of the tour, he accommodated everything very well. We cannot thank him more.
On accommodation, they were actually even better than I thought and we were satisfied with them. I did not book a luxury tour, but the accommodation was beyond our expectation. Especially Lodges in Amboseli and Masai Mara were all very near the parks and had nice facilities and rooms. We were satisfied with services too.
Overall, we are much impressed and satisfied with the tour offered by Amazing Safaris Tour. There was nothing more I would wish for. Hope we would be able to go another trip to Kenya with them soon.

A dream Safari Afdventure with the best guides ever!
We had a wonderful time with Going Green Safari, Lenny the MD is a true chilled out legend and the perfect person to have by your side. Responsive and informative before we left, always quick to reply and flexible with the plan, although he really does know how to make the most of your 3 days at Mikumi so we are glad we took his advice on everything.
We saw so many animals on the first day, on the drive through the park to the hotel, and Lenny spotted many more in the wild that we would have missed, and stopped to let us photograph and enjoy the experience. Elephants, Giraffe, Antelope, Baboons, Zebra and all before we even got to our destination. Our evening with the Masai arranged by Lenny was superb. The singing and dancing and learning how they live in the remote village. Unmissable!
The hotel Babylon was basic but lovely and everyone was so friendly and accomodating, a perfect spot to sleep after long days in the sun. Meals in Camp Bastian were delicious and plentiful, and self service so you can take what you like from the big selection. Be as adventurous as you like - it was all well cooked and lovely.
The main reason for the trip was the full game day on Safari in Mikumi NP, and our driver Selle and guide Jeffeson could not have been better. Knowledable, friendly and went out of their way to make our day amazing. Way beyond expectations. We saw almost everything that could be seen - only the nocturnal and elusive leapord evaded us. Lions - in two groups - so close (almost too close but we felt safe at all times), Elephants throughout the day at the watering hole, and the guide knew how to catch them as they crossed the road for us. Buffalo, Warthogs (a favourite), many types of antelope and impala, Zebra, Wildebeast, Hippo, Crocodiles, and two huge python, so many birds that Jeffeson had details for them all in his book and his amazing mind! We saw a really rare African Owl, eagles, Vultures, so many songbirds, starlings, shrike and lapwings with amazing plummage. I could write an entire book on this day alone and I have the photos to illustrate it and an encylopedia too. Bring a good camera!
Do not hesitate - book your own adventure with Lenny and Going Green Safari today! You will not be disappointed. The value and price is amazing without comprimising on quality or taking any shortcuts.

Overall I enjoyed my safari, however, I probably wouldn't book this particular tour again.
This safari package is more budget-friendly than other options, so please keep that in mind as you read about my experience. The lodge was supposed to have WiFi, but the WiFi was broken or there were WiFi issues during my the entire stay. So no WiFi for 5 days, despite it being promised which was a huge disappointment and very inconvenient. The food at the lodge was mediocre at best, with several menu options being unavailable for the entirety of my 5-day stay which was another bummer. I also had issues with hot water in my room, and I really didn't have a decent hot shower (with consistent hot water) for my entire stay, despite talking with the staff there and claiming to have addressed the problem; even when I did have hot water, the water temperature was extremely inconsistent, and the water would go from scalding, burning hot to freezing cold. Again, this safari package was reasonably priced for the excursions included, so I didn't go into my experience expecting luxury. However, the issues mentioned above did have a negative impact overall on my view of the lodge itself. The safari itself was extremely memorable and mostly wonderful, full of memories I'll cherish for a lifetime!

The best experience
I climbed the Kilimanjaro in the 6 days Machame route and I had a 3 days Safari in Serengeti and Ngorongoro with Adventure Makers and I can only say that I had the best experience I could have had, absolutely satisfied. Before booking I did a profound research and asked different offers, Adventure Makers offered me the best price-quality service as a local Tanzanian company.
Before the booking and until I took my flight back hole, I was in permanent contact with Stephen, he was helping me even with things that were not related to the booked services, he was always punctual for the meeting points and always messaging me during the activities making sure that everything is going well, I really appreciated that.
I met different people, contacted different companies, and after my climbing and Safari I can only say that Adventure Makers is the best option, I recommend 100%.

Excellent service
Francis was an excellent guide on the game drive. He came with all provisions necessary to enjoy the drive. We were fortunate enough to see all mammals and the overnight camping in the Serengeti was incredible as we got the chance to view the sunrise the next morning. Thank you Uwanda Tours and Safaris.

Greatest of all times!!
I came to know of Incredible Africa Trails through referral. When I contacted the company I felt instantly that they could connect with the desires of my heart. The company was able to customize a safari package for my family within the constraints of my budget and didn't compromise on the end service. I would recommend Incredible Africa Trails anytime . Steve, my family and I will be back someday!! Keep it up.
