The birthday adventure of a lifetime with Amshar Serengeti
My mother had always dreamed of going on safari, so for her 80th birthday we finally made it happen. It was the adventure of a lifetime. Amshar Serengeti and our guide Nassary made it so special for her (and for us).
Even before we left, Leoni at Amshar made us feel comfortable and confident. He emailed us a copy of their license to assure my mom they were a legitimate operation, and when we had trouble finding flights for our initial dates he shifted our entire reservation to make it work. Even though we arrived late at night, Leoni met us as we were dropped off at our hotel at 10:30pm to finalize arrangements and make sure we were squared away.
Nassary picked us up in the morning for five days of safari in Tarangire, the Serengeti (two days), Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara. He made it clear from the beginning that he would follow our lead if we had specific things we wanted to do, but was just as happy to use his expertise to craft an exceptional safari experience for us. And he did—he found us unforgettable animal encounters every day, including many lions (males, females, and cubs), cheetahs, rhinos, elephants, rare birds, monkeys, and dozens of very active hippos for my hippo-loving mom. Every day we thought we had seen it all, but then something new and spectacular would turn up the day after. Nassary was able to identify every species we saw (even the trees!) and shared interesting facts about each one—in fact, he kept insisting we ask him more questions! We were comfortable and secure at all times, and when the Land Rover developed a small mechanical issue Nassary hopped out and fixed it in no time. At the tented camp we stayed at he arranged a birthday celebration with singing and cake for my mom (who he called "Birthday Girl" all week), and she hasn't stopped talking about it since.
Our safari was in the low to moderate price range, but we never would have known it. The animals don't know how much you paid, and every place we stayed was luxurious, impeccably clean, and filled with joyful, attentive staff. The food was consistently very good and plentiful, with omelets to order every morning (even in the middle of the Serengeti). We saw sunset over the Serengeti hills from our porch, lions close enough to touch, the great bowl of Ngorongoro Crater spread out below us, and hundreds and hundreds of animals. Our safari exceeded our expectations in every way, and we will carry the memories in our heart always. Asante sana, Amshar Serengeti!

Amazing safari experience with an excellent guide and fantastic service!
Our safari was absolutely amazing from start to finish! We had fantastic routes through the different parks and stayed at beautiful and unique accommodations along the way. Everything was very well organised, and the communication with the safari operator was excellent throughout the entire trip.
We couldn’t have wished for a better guide than Martin. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful, and made the safari even more special with his expertise and passion. Thanks to him, we learned so much about the animals and the beautiful surroundings.
One of the absolute highlights of our trip was the hot air balloon flight over the Serengeti. Watching the sunrise and seeing the wildlife from above was truly unforgettable. It’s an experience we would highly recommend to anyone visiting Tanzania!
Overall, we had an incredible experience and would definitely recommend this safari to anyone looking for an unforgettable adventure.

Our guide Kundaely Nassary was fantastic
We had an absolutely wonderful safari experience with Amshar Serengeti Adventures. Our guide Kundaely Nassary was knowledgeable, patient and sharp-eyed. We were lucky to spot male and female lions, rhinos, giraffes, zebras and hippos during our trip. Communication was smooth, the service was reliable, and we felt safe the whole time. Highly recommend this operator for anyone planning a Serengeti safari!
Helpful and professional
Great local safari operator. Leoni handled our many requests and questions in building the itinerary for our budget. Aloyce was a thoroughly professional guide - taking us on long game drives, patiently searching for all the animals across each park we went to. We got to see it all, even up to the very late morning.
