They really listened and knew what we wanted. I worked with three agencies because we booked within 3 weeks. Amara and staff heard me, knew me and made my dream vacation a reality. Thank you. Look no further, this is your travel professionals. PS I’ve planed all my other trips myself. This made it so much smoother. Do it. They can accommodate any price range but mainly high end luxury I think it's the way to go. Loved it all. Thanks.

Truly a once in a lifetime safari experience! The booking process through email/Whatsapp was very smooth with Erica's expertise. We also managed to see so many animals in Serengeti and Masai Mara including all the big five animals, thanks to our guide Freddy Mollel. He is such a great guide/driver/photographer - we enjoyed our time with him so very much! Overall good arrangement of accommodations which were comfortable, super luxurious, in great location and with great views. Singita Mara River was absolutely outstanding. My favorite ever hotel. Hope to book with them again in the near future. My honest recommend...

We booked our travel to Tanzania and Kenya for our 25th wedding anniversary with Amara Safari. This was one of the most memorable trips we’ve ever taken. They were always with us throughout the trip without being overbearing and constantly in communication as we were traveling with younger kids. The places that Amara suggested were top-notch, luxurious and we felt like we were pampered all through our trip. Every necessity and requirements were fulfilled and the people who helped us were cheerful and made it a wonderful experience. I have no doubt in recommending the travel company and the advice they gave and Tommy who was at Travel concierge was very knowledgeable and helped us figuring out what exactly we needed. Again this trip will be cherished by us for the rest of our lives. I am pretty sure I will use them in my future travels too. Thanks! Jasper & Claire Show original Translation

Amara Safaris was helpful and responsive every step of the process since the very beginning. Tommy designed our amazing trip to Tanzania. He spent time figuring out what my family was interested in and created the best safari itinerary. Our Serengeti stay was fabulous. We stayed at the Olakira migration camp, where everyone was wonderful. Our guide, Mikey, was top notch and went out of his way to make sure our game drives were spectacular. We saw lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, buffalo, zebras, giraffes, hippos, wildebeests, and a host of other animals. The Olakira team was super accommodating and the food was great. The Manor Lodge at Ngorongoro Crater was also wonderful. It was a beautiful lodge with luxury accommodations and amazing food! Altus, the manager, and his team were very inviting and helpful. Overall, Amara Safari made sure that every detail was taken care of — once we landed in Tanzania, we didn’t have to worry about anything. I would absolutely recommend Amara Safari to all my family and friends.

We've had an amazing seven days in Tanzania with our safari guide Moses. Especially the walking safari we did in Tarangire left a lasting impression. Seeing a lot of animals from close by is a really special experience. The safaris in Serengeti were better than we could have dreamed, especially the lions we saw from very close were unforgettable. Sleeping in a luxury tent in Serengeti was a wonderful experience with the sounds of lions, hippos, buffaloes, etc just outside our tent. The wildebeest migration in the northern Serengeti is a must-see. Lifetime experience with Amara Safari.

The seamless coordination of all the logistics allowed us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the experience, without worrying about a single thing.

I booked my first ever African safari through Amara Safari and it was an amazing experience! Tommy and the team at Amara Safari are very organised and accommodating - from the planning phase throughout the trip and afterward. I spent nine days in three different locations throughout Tanzania, and the logistics were seamless - internal transfers and moving to and from different camps was stress free. I traveled solo, and felt completely safe and comfortable, which allowed me to just enjoy the fabulous scenery and wildlife of Tanzania. Highlights were seeing loads of animals at Serengeti National Park and the over-the-top service and hospitality I experienced at the lodges. I can't wait to return to Africa, and I plan to use Amara for my next trip as well!🥰

It was such an amazing and lovely time with Amara safari as they took us on a 12 days journey across East Africa few weeks ago. We had booked this for our 5 year marriage anniversary, Tommy and his team delivered beyond our exceptions. They gave us one of the best anniversary experience in the world. They recommended amazing parks, luxury lodges and hotels and exceptional guides throughout that blended nature and wildlife in the best possible ways. We had the time our lives in Africa with Amara Safari. We would like to recommend this awesome company for job well-done. Five Stars all the way.

My husband and I recently booked a luxury Tanzanian trip to celebrate our 5 years marriage anniversary. We went with Amara Safaris and it was more than anything we thought it would be because they went out of their way to make sure we get a memorable experience in the jungle of Africa. From champagne breakfasts, to under the stars dining experience it was just magical. It felt like we got married a year or so ago because of how everything worked out for us. We can't thank you enough for making this possible and memorable for us. Lastly to our driver and guide Steve who literally went out of his way to give us a good safari in the heart of Tanzania. Couldn't get enough.

Thank you for the amazing adventure Amara Safari! This was my first time in Tanzania and Africa. It was spectacular! We saw so many magnificent views of the Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Tarangire. We were able to observe the big 5 as well as dozens and dozens of other beautiful species. This trip was above and beyond our expectations thanks to our fantastic driver, Michael! He took such great care of us and made us feel so welcome. He was a wealth of knowledge about all aspects of Tanzania. I truly felt like I made a friend over our 8 day safari with Mikey. I hope to return with my family someday and will request to work with Louise who helped plan every aspect of this trip and Mikey as our driver. Special thanks to Louise and Tommy for working with our group to plan this adventure. She was so quick to respond to every question and helped make this trip so smooth and memorable. Asante sana!

My partner and I spent 14 days on safari around East and South Africa. Organizing the safari was really easy and the director, Tommy, was happy to customize our itinerary to suit us. We had an entire 6 seater safari Land Cruiser to ourselves so never had to worry about battling for photos and we could spread out and make ourselves comfortable throughout. The accommodation were luxurious and the food were fantastic, but the highlight was obviously seeing an incredible array of animals and landscapes as we made our way across Tarangire, Ngorongoro, The Serengeti, then Kruger to Sabi Sands in South Africa. This was all possible because of our amazing guides Baraka in Tanzania and Katlego in South Africa. They were kind, funny, and always seemed to know where the animals were. In fact, they were so good that all the other guides were constantly stopping or calling over the radio to get tips from them, especially Baraka. If you have Baraka as your guide, then you know you are in good hands. I couldn't recommend amara safaris more highly.

A Mesmerizing African Adventure with Amara Safari – An Unforgettable Journey through Tanzania and Rwanda I am writing to share the extraordinary experience I had on an unforgettable safari with Amara Safari in Tanzania and Rwanda. If you've ever dreamed of immersing yourself in the raw beauty of Africa, this is the company to make those dreams come true. From the moment I booked my safari with Amara, I was impressed by their professionalism and attention to detail. The pre-trip communication with Tommy was exceptional, providing me with all the information I needed to prepare for my adventure. The team at Amara ensured that every aspect of the trip was well-organized, allowing me to focus on the excitement of what lay ahead. One of the highlights of my safari was exploring the iconic Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. Amara Safari's expert guide Roma, took us on game drives that exceeded all expectations. The vast landscapes, teeming with diverse wildlife, unfolded before our eyes like scenes from a documentary. From the majestic elephants to the elusive big cats, every moment felt like a rare and privileged encounter with nature. The accommodations recommended by Amara Safari were nothing short of luxurious, seamlessly blending with the surrounding wilderness. Whether it was a charming tented camp or a lodge with breathtaking views, each stay was a unique and comfortable experience. The attention to detail in the design, combined with warm hospitality, created an atmosphere that made me feel connected to the environment while still enjoying the comforts of modern life. Moving on to Rwanda, Amara Safari introduced me to the enchanting world of the Volcanoes National Park, home to the endangered mountain gorillas. The trek to encounter these gentle giants was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The expertise of the guides in tracking the gorillas and the respect they showed for the animals and their habitat left a lasting impression on me. I also had the privilege of participating in community visits that provided insights into the rich local culture, and I left with a deep appreciation for the efforts made by Amara Safari to give back to the communities they work with. My safari with Amara was an unparalleled adventure that surpassed all my expectations. If you are considering a journey to Africa, I wholeheartedly recommend Amara Safari for their unparalleled expertise, commitment to responsible tourism, and the ability to turn your African dreams into extraordinary realities. Thank you, Amara Safari, for an adventure that will remain etched in my heart forever.

I recently had an incredible safari experience in Tanzania and Kenya with Amara Safari, a top-notch travel agent based in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. From the moment I reached out to them, their team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for creating unforgettable safari. The itinerary they crafted for my safari was well-planned and allowed me to witness the breathtaking beauty of the African wilderness, encounter diverse wildlife, and experience the rich culture of the region. The accommodations selected were not only luxury but also immersed me in the stunning landscapes. The knowledgeable guide provided by Amara Safari (John Mallya) was instrumental in enhancing our safari adventure. If you're planning a safari in Tanzania or Kenya, I highly recommend Amara Safari.Thank you, Amara Safari, for making my safari a truly unforgettable adventure...

Amara Safari exceeded all expectations and delivered an unparalleled luxury safari experience across three breathtaking countries: Botswana, Tanzania, and Kenya. Over the course of 14 unforgettable days, we were completely immersed in the beauty of the African wilderness, expertly guided by Amara Safari's knowledgeable and passionate team. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attention to detail that set the tone for the entire journey. The accommodations were nothing short of spectacular, blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings while providing the utmost comfort and luxury. Each lodge and camp offered a unique and immersive experience, from luxurious tented camps under the starlit skies to exclusive lodges overlooking vast savannas teeming with wildlife. The highlight of our journey was undoubtedly the incredible wildlife encounters. Amara Safari's expert guide Mollel in Tanzania, Leonard in Kenya and Theshava in Botswana took us on exhilarating game drives, where we witnessed the majestic beauty of lions, elephants, giraffes, and so much more in their natural habitat. The thrill of tracking wildlife through the bush and witnessing the circle of life unfold before my eyes is an experience I will never forget. Beyond the wildlife, the cultural experiences curated by Amara Safari added depth and richness to my journey. From meeting local tribes and learning about their traditions to enjoying sundowners against the backdrop of stunning sunsets, every moment felt authentic and genuinely special. Throughout the entire safari, the team at Amara Safari went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, allowing us to relax and fully immerse ourselves in the experience. The level of personalized service and attention to detail was truly exceptional and made me feel like a VIP throughout the journey. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

The Amara team and especially Tommy did a fantastic job creating a beautiful and memorable anniversary trip for us! We had really special and amazing experiences all through the trip in Africa and we were so lucky to have had the weight of planning a trip like this off our shoulders. We loved the luxurious accommodations we stayed in and the tour guides who showed us the beautiful regions of Tanzania and Kenya. We look forward to working with Amara again for our next adventure!

The best travel experience in my life Fantastic 16 day holiday we had in Tanzania. First Safari trip and then relaxation on Zanzibar. The trip was incredibly well organized by Tommy from Amara Safaris. We had our own safari car with Baraka as driver. He had a knack for finding the animals, and already within the first two days we had seen The Big Five. The highlights were a male elephant that came walking up close from the car, a leopard that climbed up a tree with its prey (a young wildebeest), mother lion with three cubs, seeing the interaction between 4 male lions and 3 female lions. We saw a total of 57 lions, 6 leopards, 4 cheetahs, countless elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeests, flamingos and much more. The accommodation was very cozy and staying in luxury tents among the wild animals and hearing the roar of lions and hyenas at night was truly an experience out of the ordinary. A very special experience was our balloon ride, which can be recommended. We experienced many magical moments. After 1 week of Safari, it was good to get to Zanzibar, where we stayed in some nice resorts with fantastic locations and views of the sea beaches. The holiday experiences exceeded all our expectations, and we met everywhere very friendly and welcoming people. We would always recommend Amara Safaris, who have a huge knowledge of Tanzania.

We booked our trip to Tanzania and Zanzibar through Erica at AMARA SAFARI. She did a phenomenal job of arranging our trip and every detail was taken care of. We asked to see the migration and were set up with under canvas And Beyond in the south Serengiti, which was absolutely wonderful. Next we traveled to Namiri Plains to see the big cats, also wonderful. Zanzibar was our final destination - a place to relax after Safari. The Zawadi hotel was exquisite. Amara managed everything, including transfers. I also appreciated using the Vamoos app which was a great asset in seeing what was next on our agenda. I appreciated the attention to detail, like recommendations for tipping, which I often find stressful. I'd have no reservations in recommending Amara to anyone!

My husband and I went on a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon safari with Amara Safari, exploring the landscapes of Tanzania, Rwanda, and the pristine beaches of Zanzibar. Our experience with Amara Safari was nothing short of extraordinary, exceeding our wildest expectations and leaving us with lifelong memories. We wholeheartedly recommend Amara Safari to anyone seeking a luxurious, adventurous, and unforgettable honeymoon experience. From the moment we landed in Tanzania, we were greeted by the friendly and knowledgeable staff of Amara Safari, Louise. Their attention to detail and commitment to providing exceptional service was evident from the start. We were promptly whisked away to our luxurious accommodation, where every comfort and convenience was meticulously thought out. The luxurious lodges, camps and beachfront resort arranged by Amara were an oasis of tranquility, offering impeccable service, delectable cuisine, and breathtaking sunsets that set the stage for romance and pure bliss. Throughout our entire journey, the Amara team went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our honeymoon was flawlessly executed. It was worth every penny!.

An Unforgettable Honeymoon Safari with Amara Safari in South Africa! My spouse and I had the pleasure of experiencing a honeymoon safari in March 2024, arranged by Amara Safari in South Africa, and we cannot recommend them enough! From start to finish, every aspect of our trip was meticulously planned, resulting in an unforgettable adventure that exceeded all our expectations. The team at Amara Safari led by Tommy, demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. Their attention to detail was evident from the moment we began discussing our preferences and desires for our honeymoon end of last year. They took the time to understand our interests and crafted a tailor-made itinerary that perfectly suited our needs. Our accommodations were nothing short of spectacular. Amara Safari handpicked luxurious lodges and camps that provided the perfect blend of comfort and immersion in the natural beauty of South Africa. Each location surpassed our expectations, offering breathtaking views, impeccable service, and unique wildlife encounters. We felt pampered and well taken care of throughout our stay. We had the opportunity to witness the "Big Five" in their natural habitats, and our knowledgeable guide Thabo ensured that we had literally, front-row seats to every remarkable moment. The game drives were well-organized, informative, and filled with incredible sightings. We were in awe of the diverse wildlife we encountered, and our guide's expertise made the experience even more enriching. From airport transfers to meal arrangements, everything was seamless and hassle-free. Amara's dedication to providing a stress-free experience allowed us to focus solely on enjoying our honeymoon and creating beautiful memories together. The team at Amara was always available to address any questions or concerns we had, both before and during our trip. Their friendly and accommodating nature made us feel like valued guests, and we truly appreciated their genuine commitment to ensuring our satisfaction.
