Amazing and well planned trip
We had four days tour to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Whole trip was very well planned and we could give as much wishes that we just wanted.
Our driver Vincent was very professional and showed us 4 out of big five.
I would totally recommend Sino Africa and Vincent to anyone planning trip to Kenyan safari.

Amazing safari with Brilliant Adventure and Safaris
Brilliant Adventure and Safari provided one of the best safari experiences of my life. For four days, we traveled to Serengeti and Ngorongoro NPs. Max, our tour guide, was fantastic. His knowledge of the animals and the best viewing spots made the trip everything we could have hoped for.
Jane in the office was extremely helpful and easy to communicate with via e-mail and Whatsapp.
Our safari vehicle was the star of the show; every other guest was staring at us as all the windows were open all around.
Overall, I would recommend Brilliant Adventures and Safaris, particularly Max, to anyone looking for a safari tour.

Saw all Big 5!!
We took 5 day 4 Nights safari with Afrishare. We spent 3 days in Serengeti and rest of the time in Ngorogoro... thanks to the expertise of the guide provided by Afrishare we could see all Big 5 including Rhino. As luck would have it we saw - 6 Rhinos. 5 Chitahs, 3-4 Leopards and countless Lions. Somehow the guide @Moses had knack and patience to take us to the right areas where animals can be seen. Some sessions were not so good but he stuck to the task. The food cooked and served by @Rafiqi was great. He surprised us by serving pasta, pizza in middle of the jungle. Too good. Kudos to @Ibrahim to put together such a team.
We did have a hiccup on the way. The vehicle had gear box problem. The replacement vehicle took a while but the team made up for the lost time!!

One of the best experiences of my life thanks to the Jocky tour guides!
Had an absolut blast with the Jocky tour guides. Experiencing the Maasai Mara Park with them was at all times more than fun. We learned so much about the land, the people and especially the animals. Got to see the big five thanks to their experience! Can only recommend them!

Well organised, efficient communication and excellently staffed.
Was picked up ahead of the scheduled 4am time. My driver Abedi turned out not only to be a punctual and reliable driver he was also very good at his communication. He managed to make the 5hr+ drive there and the even longer drive back as fast, pleasant and save as possible.
I’m the park itself I was met by my guide Jepherson and our driver (apologies for not remembering his name). Jepherson sorted all the paperwork for me and off we went for the most exciting 6hrs imaginable. The guys managed to cover almost every species there is. We found two lion prides and elephants, zebras, warthogs, wildebeest, giraffes and antelopes galore. The Hippos where a bit shy mid afternoon and only showed their ears above water. Cheetahs and leopards were a no show but I did not feel dissapointed at all. All in all I was as happy as the baboons by the end of the day and can only highly recommend the experience and highest praise to everybody involved in the organisation of my trip. Asante organisers, asante Africa, asante Tanzania

I highly recommend Jackson as your safari guide
We had a wonderful 5 day safari with Jackson. He knows so much about all animals, could answer all our questions about birds, mammals, ecology and culture. He showed us all the animals and pointed out many birds and plants. I really felt that he anticipated all our needs and was very attentive to any request. We also loved the tented camps that he arranged for us. It was a great experience
9 Day Safari Tour
We absolutely loved our 9-day safari in Kenya with Amazing Memories (AM)! We chose AM as they offered very competitive prices but also had some of the best reviews.
Booking Process
- Booking with AM was very easy. Anne (manager) is very responsive and provides lots of information. Likewise for the rest of the team.
Accommodation
- We opted for the premium accommodation. All of the lodges were of an excellent standard other than in relation to Samburu (which was still nice but I would not expect in the premium package).
Vehicle
- We opted for the Land Cruiser over the standard mini van. This is essential in my opinion as the mini van is far more limited off road (which much of the Safari is).
- The vehicle was very comfortable, spacious and well maintained.
Guide
- Our guide was full of conversation, patient and made sure we got the most out of game drives- I’m sure he would have driven us around the parks all day if that was what we wanted! We learnt a lot about the Kenyan culture and the different animals found on Safari. Overall he was very good.
- We were slightly disappointed by the extent to which the guide spent time on his mobile phone - this was both on game drives and travelling on main roads between parks. This lead to many instances where either the the guide did not pay attention to questions asked or it slowed down the travel in general.
Schedule
- We really liked the schedule that was offered for the 9 day safari and were generally very pleased.
- We did find that the itinerary differed from what we had originally received. We were meant to be arriving at the lodges by lunch time with time to enjoy the lodge before our afternoon game drives. As the drives between parks often took longer than stated we missed this on a couple of days and in one instance missed 40 minutes of our evening game drive.
Overall we had a fantastic experience and would definitely recommend others to use AM! The entire experience was excellent and the service offered at all stages was very good.
