... read more />
Our safari guide in Kenya, Eliud and Moses in Tanzania, were outstanding - knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about the wildlife and culture of the region. They made sure we had the best game drive experience, always knowing where to find the animals and sharing fascinating insights about their behavior. Their sharp eyes and expert tracking skills ensured we saw all of the Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino up close in their natural habitat!
The parks we visited, including the Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Amboseli were simply spectacular. Each had its own unique charm, from the beautiful sunset of Masai Mara, endless golden plains of the Serengeti to the dramatic landscapes of the Ngorongoro Crater. The game drives were thrilling, with breathtaking moments like watching a pride of lions, cheetahs with a kill, cute hyppo families, wildebeest herds running and witnessing the majestic elephants roaming freely.
All the accommodations were excellent, offering both comfort and a true safari ambiance. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying sundowners with stunning views of the African savannah was an experience we will never forget.
This safari exceeded all our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable wildlife adventure. A huge thanks again to Amazing Memories Safari guides, Eliud, Moses, Nevill and team for their amazing hospitality!!
