We had a wonderful experience with Amazing Memories Safaris and would highly recommend them for future safaris. Our guide Francis was the best - professional, kind, and knowledgeable about the best places to take breathtaking photography. An amazing time in a beautiful country!

We had an amazing time with our guide Dickson on a 6 days safari trip with Lion King Adventures.
The organization, communication and experience were perfect !
The accommodation are great especially the 2 nights in Land of Nature in Serengeti, a must do !
We have seen so so many different animals included lions, leopard, cheetah and the endangered rhino !

It was truly perfect!
5/5

I think is the best traveling experience I have ever had! I’m so glad I made it with Great Escape Trails: amazing guide, the hotels were so good (looked way better than the pictures), the places we visited were amazing and the food was so good!! No complaint at all. Will definitely repeat this safari with them!

Excellent safari 👌🙏
5/5

Just wow! We had an unforgettable 3-day safari with Good One Tour, starting in Arusha, exploring the Serengeti, and ending in the stunning Ngorongoro Crater. We saw almost all the animals we dreamed of (yes, lions, elephants, and even cheetahs!). Huge thanks to our amazing driver and the super talented cook who kept us happy and full throughout the trip. If you're looking for an adventure of a lifetime, this is it!

Brian is Amazing, he navigates the roads, tours, customs and makes everything so easy.
5/5

I shopped around quite a bit for our day trip into Chobe in Botswana and was so glad my mom and I went with Brian, everything was so easy and fun and the perfect day. He communicated with us frequently, answered all of my questions, was timely and even dropped us at the restaurant we wanted to go to instead of back at the hotel. He helped every step of the way, navigating potholes, stopping to take pictures of exotic animals, helped get through customs and made everything effortless. The game drive was a lot of fun (this was our 11th as we were getting to the end of our trip) the game driver was awesome, he got us up close to 3 female lions, elephants, and many other animals. The buffet lunch was nice, and I am generally not a fan of buffets, Lastly the boat tour was a lot of fun, we saw an elephant cross to the island in the middle, many hippos and crocodile, an eagle, baboons and a monitor. Taking the boat ride was a nice relaxing afternoon. Would absolutely recommend Brian to anyone visiting in the area. I hope to visit again and will call him if I do.

#1 tour guide operator out of them all - price, people, experience & transparency ✨️
5/5

I cant reckon Humphrey and his amazing team (shout out to Eli) enough. Humphrey is so responsive, organised & available to answer ANY & ALL of your questions. He was able to help us change accommodation to suit our budget (we camped 1 night and lodged 2 nights) and he organised our transport from Arusha Tanzania back to nairobi Kenya.

The tour itself - i don't know where to begin. Our guides were amazing, Saleh & Robert were experts in finding the most elusive animals - we got to see the big 5 and more!!! Two different leopard sitings, three cheetah brothers + a mum & her two cubs cheetahs, lionesses with their 8 cubs after a kill, rhinos in the ngoro crater. It was honestly one of the best experiences we have had - the guides were great, friendly, we laughed alot & we learnt alot. There was no silly question.
The food cooked by Ghadia was amazing, some local Tanzanian curry's plus stewed veggies and rice, then some pizza, chicken, soups and always the best breakfast.

Our itinerary was (fully organised by Humphrey):
- 1st night in Arusha Hotel
- drive to & enter Tarangire National Park (freaking awesome for elephants & Giraffes)
- stayed locally that night
- enter the Serengetti!
- stayed INSIDE the Serengeti in a lodge and was scary & exciting - heard lions roar and hyenas calling to each other. They come up to your lodging!! But they have Masai guarding the camp. This was something else - we were recommended to this and im glad we did, but it was scary listening to that all night even though you are 100% safe.
- game drive in the morning then head to the Ngoro Crater rim
- game drive through the Ngoro crater - it feels like Jurassic Park. You go through so many different areas that range from wetlands to bush to fields. Stunning + amazing at the same time
- then back to Arusha for the night
- bus over the border back to nairobi to the airport

Only thing we would of done differently - went to Zanzibar after the tour to relax. It's a jam packed 4 days but it is worth it.

Ps a small tip: do plan to tip your tour guide 10 usd per day per person. And 5 usd per day per person for the chef. Get Tanzanian shillings out to tip other service providers through out your travels + your lodges/hotels. Example: we tipped 10k shillings to the bus bag loader as a thanks, we also tipped 10 usd to the lodge in the Serengeti for all the service workers they provided.

THE BEST SAFARI EVER
5/5

THE BEST SAFARI!!
It was a unique and unforgettable experience. Every day we had encounters with the animals, the accommodation and the organization of the Safari was without a doubt the best! Our guide Thom was very attentive and always tried to make this trip the best experience. I would repeat it a thousand times!!

Second travel with Jaribu Africa
5/5

Our second safari with Jaribu Africa was just as perfect as the first! Back in 2018, we explored Serengeti, and this time, we added Tarangire, Ngorongoro, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru to the mix. Joseph, our go-to guy, made everything smooth as always—helpful, quick to respond, and super organized.

One moment that stuck with me happened in Amboseli. Our guide spotted a lioness crouching in the tall grass. She was watching a herd of zebra near a watering hole. We held our breath as she slowly crept closer, but just as she was about to pounce, a baboon let out a loud bark, warning the others. The zebras bolted, and the lioness sat up, looking both defeated and annoyed. Even though there was no hunt, the sheer tension of the moment was unforgettable.

Every part of the trip was like this—full of surprises and perfect planning. We’re already chatting with Joseph about where to go in 2026. Can’t wait to see what’s next!

Amazing trip to South coast.
5/5

I booked this trip on behalf of my family and the contact person was Jackson. He booked us in the luxurious Swahili Beach Resort between Dec 24-28 with visits to Wasini island and Shimba hills. Dani beach is beautiful. Every step of the trip was seamless. The hotel was luxurious with very hospitable staff.

This is a competent and transparent tour company. Recommended!
