Truly unforgettable Safari Experience
We did nine days safari (Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Nake Naivasa, Amboselli, Taita Hill Sanctuary and Tsavo East) Antony was excellent in animal tracking. Could saw Lions and Cheetah many times. In fact we had kind of National Geographic experience when Cheetah hunted the wild beast. Could see lots of animals including big five just except Rhino. All the lodges and tents were amazing with very good food. We saw Hippos roaming in Lake Naivasa Country Club. Salt Lick Safari Lodge had excellent animal watching all day long. Very unique experience.
However, I found that their management was worst.
For lunch had to wait more than half hours in a crowded place. Room was not ready even at 2: 30 pm. If they could improve their management, I would still recommend Salt Lick Safari since their animal watching from the room, bar, restaurant- all were excellent experience.
Overall, we had un-forgettable best memories, no doubt. Isaac was very responsive from the beginning. Many times he showed flexibility of editing plans based on my request. He agreed on full payment after arrival and no prepayment. Also, I found that he offered a competitive price in comparison to the other operators I approached.

Amazing Experience with Isaac and Best Memory Safari. We will return again next year.
Our group of 5 traveled from the US to Kenya during the pandemic. Isaac guided our experience and we had an unforgettable time with Best Memory.
We experienced the busy city of Nairobi, we went on safari in the Mara, Mombasa and the coast. We did so much during our experience. I highly recommend people spend at least 10 -14 days with Best Memory to get a complete understanding of Kenya. They worked really hard to make sure we saw as many animals as we could while on safari.
Our group saw more of the country than many of the locals based on what some of the locals told us. Isaac is also very well connected. He was able to connect a couple of people in our group with a strategic partner.
I can not say enough great things about Best Memory Safari other than you should trust their knowledge, expertise and book with them.

Great trip with a professional but still personal operator and guide
We have been on a 11 day safari with Best Memory Safaris at the start of September 2021. To cut it short, overall it has been a very nice experience which did certainly fulfill our expectations.
We organized the trip on short notice just a couple of days before departure. Isaac from Best Memory Safaris has been very open to support a customer itinerary we wanted to have due to both arriving and departing by air from Mombasa. Isaac did put together a schedule which we liked and was very responsive in his communication also regarding our additional questions and requests. We also decided to go for a jeep rather than a a van, which we very much appreciated later during the trip, we certainly do suggest to take a jeep if your budget allows for it. As Isaac was also able to offer a quite competitive price we decided to get into business with him over a couple of competitors which we considered.
We have been picked up at the airport by Isaac and by our guide Anthony. We actually very much appreciated Isaac showing up and traveling from Nairobi for this purpose. We did directly pick up our trip with Anthony and moved towards Taita Hills. We continued over Camp Ziwani, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru followed by Masai Mara, Lake Naiwasha and lastly Tsavo East. I will not dive into all the great experiences we had in the parts as this would be too much for this review. We managed to see all the animals on our bucket list - big and small and also some action. We truly believe a lot of this was due to our wonderful guide Anthony, who obviously has a great amount of experience and knowledge about the parks as well as the roads and was able to spot the animals himself as well as to work with other guides to bring us to them. Clearly this was a great advantage over other guides and groups we have met on the trip. Anthony was very professional in every aspect of his work and also very concerned about Covid-19 safety which we appreciated. Likewise as our trip included multiple long distance drives we appreciated his excellent driving skills on one side but also his careful approach with safety on first place on the other. Actually considering the distances next time we certainly would take one flight from Nairobi or consider taking a local flight or train between the two in worst case. I have to mention that the attention to the jeep Anthony did exercise in terms making sure we have a full tank, balanced tire pressure and that the car is clear did help us to feel secure and relaxed. On top of the guiding and driving skills I have to say that we very much enjoyed the time Anthony as person in long talks with him about life and situation in Kenya as well as in Slovakia and the similarities and differences as well as many other topics which we touched. Thus although the drives were long we spent them pleasantly.
As in every longer trip not everything went smoothly and we had some issues. In particular Sentrim Mara was a disappointment and quite under par of other accommodations we did stay in during the trip. Not working water, pretty poor food and totally shitty internet access did make us sad. Isaac helped us to resolve the problem with water, which made the situation acceptable, even though not desirable. Likewise Setrim Tsavo East was a disappointment. We certainly would suggest to avoid these on a mid-range budget. Never the less we believe Isaac handled the situation properly and hopefully will arrange itineraries considering our feedback in the future.
We liked the trip very much, not only because of the wonderful sights and experiences in the parks but also due to professional services of our guide Anthony and the planning of Isaac. If you are up for a mid-range custom trip we certainly can recommend Best Memory Safaris. All in all this was a great trip and great value for money.

Great Adventure
My wife and I did the 14 day Bush to Beach Safari and everything was spectacular. Our Safari operator Isaac arranged everything including airport pickups and drop offs, hotels, and park passes. We met out Safari driver Steve at the hotel in Nairobi and he took great care of us on our 10 day safari before doping us off in Daini beach resort. Steve did an incredible job as a safari guide, pointing out all sorts of animals and teaching us about them. He was also our ambassador of Kenyan Culture and taught us a lot about Kenyan customs and traditions. The hotels booked for us were all amazing with new wonders each day. This was our first time to East Africa and we were truly impressed. We highly recommend this for anyone looking for a great adventure.

The guides were excellent. All are nation sly certified and could spot animals from afar
There was not a single downside to the safari. The accommodations were excellent (each had its own unique style), the food was fantastic and plentiful, the safaris were amazing, and the vehicles immaculate. We did many of the parks and also a night and walking safari. Bthe guides are experts at locating animals. Each park was wonderful. We topped off the trip with a few days at the beach (I highly recommend everyone do this). It was a 10/10 experience (and I have been on other safaris that I enjoyed… just not as much as this one). I am recommending #bestmemorysafaris to all my friends.

Amazing Tour Operator
I organised an 8 day safari through Best Memory Safaris visiting Tsavo East, Amboseli, Lake Naivasha and Maasai Mara.
I had approached four companies through safaribookings.com that offered similar Safaris but I wished to visit the Parks in reverse order.
Best Memory were by far the most responsive and attentive to my requests.
They answered all of my queries concisely and amended the Safari to suit our needs.
Isaac also came and met with us prior to the Safari which was great.
The actual Safari was amazing. Our driver Shem had 23 years experience in Safari driving. He was super knowledgeable as well as being courteous and a safe driver.
The accommodation was also great.
I would highly recommend Best Memory Safaris to anyone wanting to arrange a Safari in Kenya. They are super professional and excellent quality.

Amazing experience
We booked a 16 day trip to Kenya with Best Memory Safaris. The trip started off with a relaxing trip to Kiabethu tea farm, which was much needed after a full day of travel. Then we proceeded with our 10-day safari, and finally capped it off with 5 days at beautiful Diani Beach. During the booking process, Isaac was very responsive and provided excellent service and recommendations. I was skeptical at first communicating with someone in Africa over Whatsapp and then subsequently wiring over money. But Isaac proved to be trustworthy, and everything went very smoothly! The trip was well planned from beginning to end. We were able to visit many of the major national parks/reserves, staying in some very cool lodges along the way. I highly recommend Best Memory Safaris to others looking to experience the magic of Kenya.
Anthony, our driver, was also a rock star. Anthony drove us around Kenya for 12 straight days without a map. All the while, he was friendly, professional, and informative. He was able to tell us the names and behaviors of every single animal we came across. He taught us a bit of Kamba and Swahili. Anthony knew exactly where to go to find certain animals, and could spot them in the distance. In Masai Mara, he was able to spot a cheetah laying in tall grass about 60 meters away. I'm truly amazed at his eyesight, the man definitely eats his carrots. Anthony genuinely wanted us to enjoy ourselves, see all the animals, and get as much out of the trip as possible. And most importantly, we felt safe in his care. Many thanks to Anthony and Isaac for a great trip!

Everything you can expect from a touroperator. Only best memories - guaranteed!
In February 2021 we were with Best Memory Safaris on 11-days safari trip. We had a great time in Meru NP, Samburu NP and Ol1 Pejeta Conservancy. We had an idea about places we wanted to visit but for detailed planning we reached to Isaac for recommendations. His advices were absolutely spotted and he also selected great accommodation for us. This was exactly what we were looking for – a person who listen to our needs and works with us on preparing the best plan.
But even the best safari plan would not work without a good guide. And our guide Anthony was absolutely great. He was fully focused on giving us the best experience. Thanks to him we saw a lot of animals and we enjoyed every minute of our game drives. And he also had a great sense of humour – we spent really great time together.
I give Best Memory Safaris “5 stars” rating and my full recommendation.

Unforgettable Safari
Best Memory Safaris has the most courteous and experienced drivers. They have taken excellent care of every detail of our trip. From Ol Pejeta to visit the rhino cemetery to Crescent Island to have a quick glimpse into the history of a famous movie, from Maasai Mara National Reserve to be in awe by the king of the jungle to the red earth in Tsavo Nation Park, Best Memory Safaris delivered it all. Everyday feels like magic. Book them and you will have a lifetime memorable vacation.

It was a good experience.
I liked the whole tour overall. Due to covid "low season" our safari was private and tailor-made)). Very good accomodation, I expected less comfort in Africa savanna. I wish we could've seen more animals especially leopards but still the trip was dynamic and impressive.
