Contagious joy and enthusiasm
We spent a week in Rwanda and Uganda with Able - his joy and love of life are infectious and he kept us laughing and full of energy. We loved all of his choices for lodging, and he broke up the longer drives by pointing out things of interest along the way. He was also a great cheerleader for us as we departed on our primate treks!

Armaye is wholly professional with flexibility to create unique itineraries and travel experiences.
I am a naturalist with an appetite to photograph endemic and vulnerable species. Armaye worked with me, awesome communication skills btw, to provide me with the appropriate destinations for the time I had available. Even with the challenges of the changing political climate during the trip, Armaye had the flexibility to make changes to lodgings, flights, destinations, etc. that still offered me the photo opportunities for which I had hoped and remain in budget. My travel plans placed me in Ethiopia during off-season for tourism, but I was rewarded with a unique insight into the natural world of that region during the rainy season. I am delighted by the many babies, juveniles, and family units that nature revealed to me, glimpsing some of the more elusive animals. The trade-off was that the trip did not coincide with migrations of birds, but the abundant numbers and varieties of resident species filled camera memory cards with animals I had never encountered. This was my first trip to the Horn of Africa. I was immersed in rural Ethiopia, but my professional guide and driver took good care to keep me safe. Of note, I do not have a palate for spicy food (I feel that cayenne pepper and curry is too spicy) so that was a challenge for me personally, but I planned for that inevitability and brought nuts, raisins, and crackers to sustain me.

10/10 safari experience! Seriously, life changing!

We had an AMAZING safari experience. Truly made memories with the safari company. They helped us set up a 9-day safari exploring various parts of Kenya for our large group. Also, their customer service throughout the whole process from beginning (planning stage) to end (the literal final goodbye).
Nevill helped our large group plan our safari experience months ahead. He always was so quick to answer every little question we had, from the weather to vaccinations. Also, he helped us book airport transfers and tours for us to go on before and after our safari adventure.
Now the safari itself was more than I ever expected. Our tour guide Musa truly made the experience so memorable. He really was an all around guide, from ensuring the safety of all of us to sharing so many facts about the animals we saw. His knowledge was like an encyclopedia of facts about Kenya. During the drives to and from each game reserve, he would also share facts about Kenya itself. I cannot recommend Musa enough. If you can request him, please do because his jokes and personality made our trip even more memorable. Also, our group’s second guide Peter too was great. He drove so efficiently and was such a kind, patient guy.
Out of all of the reserves, you must prioritize Masai Mara. It was truly so beautiful and had every animal you could imagine. During our journey, we were able to see 4/5 of the Big 5, which was amazing.
I would recommend them to anyone who’s interested in going on a safari in Kenya. It will make your experience so worthwhile. Thank you Amazing Memories for making such a positive impact and giving us this trip of a lifetime.

We had an unforgettable 5-day safari in the Masai Mara. Our driver Paul was fantastic – knowledgeable, patient, and always spotting wildlife we would have missed. Everything was perfectly arranged by Lincoln, who made the whole trip smooth and stress-free. The final family-style meal was the perfect ending to an amazing adventure. Highly recommended!

Two weeks in Uganda with Kajie - A fantastic family experience!
We just returned from an incredible 2-week family trip to Uganda organized by Kajie, and everything went exactly as planned and expected. The entire experience was absolutely fantastic!
A special shoutout to Arafat, our guide who accompanied us throughout the entire journey. His extensive knowledge of Uganda - from wildlife and history to local cultures and ethnic groups - along with his detailed explanations, truly enhanced our travel experience. Arafat understood our expectations perfectly and went above and beyond to make them a reality.
Thank you Arafat, for making our Uganda adventure unforgettable!

Top notch service all around, I can't recommend them enough!
The communication was great.
The driver (Robert) was THE BEST. He was an incredible driver, and was able to quickly navigate to places others struggled to get to or couldn't. He seemed to know the park very well, where animals would be, when to find them. He taught us a lot about the parks and the animals, he was great at accommodating all of our picture requests. If I go back, we will definitely ask to have him again. Thank you Robert, and Nashibe Adventures for making our honeymoon an experience we will NEVER forget.

Amazing Tour!
I had the most incredible experience on my tour through Botswana and Zimbabwe with our guide, Marvel. From start to finish, everything was truly amazing. Marvel went above and beyond to make sure our trip was exactly what we wanted – he listened carefully to our wishes and managed to realize every single one of them. Thanks to him, we were able to fully enjoy the beauty, wildlife, and culture of both countries without a single worry. I cannot recommend Marvel highly enough – he truly made this adventure a dream come true!

Certainly a wonderful experience with life long memories.
My husband and I travelled to Tanzania in February of 2025. It was truly an amazing experience which will live in our hearts forever with Utukufu Travels and Adventures playing a big part. Exaudy, our guide, was without a doubt, extremely knowledgeable, thorough, uber friendly, and caring (he went out of his way to accommodate my food allergies with substitutions). Our time in the Safari was spectacular as we sited the diverse wildlife, overnighted at camp accommodations (that we like to call ‘glamping’), and drove through the National Parks of Serengeti, Lake Manyara, Tarangire and Ngorongoro with their endless landscapes – timeless!
Exaudy also came through on the places and experiences that we suggested and happily arranged the excursions without any hesitation – even thanked us for our ideas. We will never forget the 3 day hiking adventure beginning at Empakaai Crater, through the hills and valleys of Maasai villages, along the Rift Valley leading to our final destination of Lake Natron. This adventure included morning sunrises, kilometres of stunning landscapes, a Maasai village stop where our cook acquired extra supplies and hours of sharing Tanzanian life with Exaudy, the everlasting guide at our side!
We graciously thank you Utukufu Travels and Adventures.
