Excedeed our expectation
To begin, comunication with Lomo Safari was super helpful in fulfilling our needs and wishes.
We took 3day Tarangire NP, Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara NP tour. Day before our trip the chief of Lomo Safari visited us and we run through entire itinerary and tuned small details.
Starting the first day of the trip, we met our driver Rahim and the car we went with. I would like to appreciate the condtition and equipment of the car. There is a WiFi onboard, you can charge your gadgets aswell and there was a fridge with refresments and snacks.
As for the each of the parks we were very lucky seeing so many animals we couldn't even imagine, some far, some very close to vehicle.
Each day Rahim set us a pre-made lunch which was super delicious everytime. You can choose whether you want to dine the proper way with plates and cutlery or to have a lunch box. Also big thanks to Rahim who did everything to our please, his knowledge was superb and we learned so much about Tanzania fauna and flora.
Overall I would like to the thank the Lomo Safari, Erasto and Rahim for wonderfull experience which we are lucky to have. We really enjoyed our stay at safari and sure will do recommend to our friends.

The contact with the Company was simple and Good. They responded to our questions really quickly.
We did a 7-Day Safari with our guide Edward. He is a very nice and experienced guy. When we met other Safari tourists in the evening, they often didn‘t saw the same stuff and locations we did because Edward knows the parks and the good places. He also answered every question very nicely.
The value for money in my eyes was very good and the Company is very reliable.
I would recommend the Company and especially Edward anytime.

What an incredible Tour That I will never forget!!!
The 7 Day Safari was amazing.
Our guide Edward was the true hero!
He drove us safely through the country of Kenya and on the game drive he showed his talents - guiding us to the Big 5, being very very close to them and he was listening to our whishes and Made them come True.
All in all - an incredible experience That i will Never forget.

Very good service and Martin is the best driver. Mica was also very helpful.
There are too many options online for a safari operator and we were very confused but we just decided to go with Okoa Africa tours and we are really satisfied and happy with their services. My daughter planned the whole trip within a period of not even 3 weeks but it all worked out fine. We took a private safari and had no problem whatsoever. We got in touch with Mica first and Martin is the driver who was with us for the safari. His driving is excellent and he really knows it all. I would highly recommend Okoa for a safari in Kenya. Hope this review will help travelers to find a safari operator.
A very friendly country with some amazing sunsets and animals
We had a really great holiday particularly in the parks and getting so close to the animals. The people we met - in airports, shops, hotels, taxis, parks and other attractions - were really welcoming and helpful. It was lovely to find out so much about this country. We liked sitting in the peace and quiet of Thornicroft Lodge near South Luangwa park, watching the animals across the river and listening to the hippos in the river. We also enjoyed Victoria Falls although October is not the best time to visit here (water is getting low). The sunset cruise on the Zambezi from Victoria Falls Waterfront was really good and the sunset unmatched. We ate some delicious food during our stay and the local beer was good too. All in all a very memorable holiday.

Best experience of my life.
Turned 21 years old in 1974 in my home state of California. I took a Kimbla Safari tour originating in London and first flew to Cairo for 2 weeks in Egypt being part of the tour. Then to Nairobi where 15 of us from all over the world were greeted by our guide and driver Malcolm in a 3 ton 4wd Bedford Troop transport which became our home base for the next several weeks (Çamping Safari) Started in Kenya and ended in Johannesburg. 6000 Miles overland. We zig zaged southward stopping at many lodges and reserves along the way and used their campgrounds, bars, and facilities, although did most of our own cooking, taking turns cooking for the group. The most memorable places were amboselli, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crator, and the pristine coast and beaches of Tanzania and of course Victoria Falls. The trip of a lifetime. Thank you Kimbla. I could write in detail for hours but not today. 69 years old and still have many vivid memories

Fantastic 10 day Kenya tour
My partner and I just returned from a 10 day/9 night safari to 5 different parks (Amboseli, Tsavo East, Lake Navaisha, Lake Nakuru, and Masai Mara). Right from the start Joel made the planning process incredibly easy. He was so helpful at arranging our itinerary so we could make the most of our time. Originally we had this trip booked for January of 2022 but since Covid flared up again, we decided to reschedule for September and Joel easily made that happen.
For the 10 days we were with our guide/driver, Kephar and he was so lovely! He was very knowledgeable, patient with all of our questions, and had incredible driving skills! All 5 of our stops were so different and had something special to offer, we wouldn’t have changed a thing. Our accommodations were all very comfortable with nice meals. This was truly the trip of a lifetime!

Amazing trip done by Amazing memory tour operator
After spending couple of weeks searching for tour operators for African safari we chose Amazing Memories Safari based on exceptional reviews. After our first initial contact with the company we got a fast and detailed response from Anne.
She sent us a couple of options for different hotel selections and camp itinerary for a packed 12 days private safari trip.
We did some changes with hotel selection and camps and after a couple of days we received a revised itinerary from Anne, which we accepted with a 10% deposit to secure the package.
Amboseli National Park. Kibo Safari Camp -4 STAR
Olpajeta Conservancy. Sweetwaters Serena Camp – 5 Star
Samburu Game reserve. Ashnil Samburu Camp- 5 Star
Lake Nakuru National Park Flamingo Hill T. Camp-4 STAR
Masai Mara National Reserve. Mara Simba Lodge -4 Star
Mara Serena. Lodge 5 star
We were met in Nairobi airport, and introduced to our driver James, who drove to Amboseli National Park and did evening game drives with impeccable views of mount Kilimanjaro. Also, we saw many different animals including: elephants , zebras ,hippos, lion’s and their cubs and cheetahs. Kibo resort was excellent with outstanding view of mountains.
In Olpajeta Conservancy we saw many rhinos and spotted Lino’s family playing with three cubes. It was secluded with no another jeeps around so we could watch them playing for almost an hour without distraction in close proximity. Thanks to James for his ability to spot animals where nobody can find them.
The Water hole was in front of our tent and we saw rhinos during day coming to drink water from it.
In Samburu Game reserve we saw special five and we completed our big five by spotting leopards. We saw cheetahs family haunting gazelle.
Even when it was super hot in Samburu I can say it was one of my favourite parks.
After Lake Nakuru National Park Flamingo Hill T. Camp-4 STAR
We did boat trip on lake Narvasha to see hippos.
Last four days we spent in Masai Mara 2 nights in Mara Simba and 2 nights in Mara Serena.
Game drive in Mara triangle was an unbelievable experience. We saw lions haunting zebras and eating buffalo .
Serena was a high class resort with perfect accommodations.
Thanks Amazing memory team for organizing an amazing trip for us.
Our guide \ driver James was outstanding , same us Eliud who joined us for last couple of days.
I highly recommend this company as the best tour operator for Kenya African safari!

Amazing trip, the attention to detail was outstanding!
This was absolutely an incredible trip. I believe it is the first time I have ever seen best-laid plans actually work. The communication with Darren was very quick and detailed. He was always there for us from the beginning of the planning stages to the end of the trip, including checking on us during the trip. The information in the itinerary he sent us covered every detail and smoothly guided us through four countries. At every new location there was always someone waiting for us to continue our journey. The guides (Brendan, Garth and Mortimer) and the safari guides were all outstanding, they took such good care of us. It truly was the trip of a lifetime, and it was all made possible by Kate and Darren Humphrys. I will always use and recommend Compass Odyssey for any travel to Southern Africa.
