    Guest Reviews

    I had enjoyed my safari in India with Suyash so much that I jumped at the chance to join the Masai Mara safari in May 2024. Although this was not my first safari in Africa, it was one of the most memorable. There were numerous close sightings of fascinating animals such as giraffes, elephants, hippos and lions. Suyash and the local guides were very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about wildlife, providing a lot of information and patiently answering all our questions. The accommodations at Leopard Hill Camp were spacious, attractive and comfortable - there were hot water bottles in our beds when we retired on chilly nights. The staff there were friendly, attentive and always helpful. We were treated to three delicious chef-prepared meals each day. If you have always dreamed of a safari in Africa, this is the trip for you. I am already looking forward to my next trip with Ameliya Safaris.

    Suyash and Ameliya Safaris made our safari experience unforgettable! Thank you so much for bringing a piece of my childhood back with this African Safari experience. It was my first safari with Ameliya and it was nothing short of phenomenal. During our visit, we had the incredible opportunity to see 24 distinct animal species ranging from Masai Giraffes, African elephants, hyenas, warthogs, and lions from three different prides 🦁, along with various species of antelope and many other fascinating creatures. I'm thankful for their attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the trip was flawless. We thoroughly enjoyed the sundowners, bush breakfasts, game drives, walks, and all the other activities that the team had planned for us. Here's to hoping for many more adventures with Ameliya Safaris in the future!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Each traveler has a unique set of questions they ask us before booking their Ameliya Experience. Our travel experts have compiled this list based on our guests’ most commonly asked questions, to help ease your journey. Click on any of the questions below to find the answer you’re looking for. If you’re curious about something other than what’s listed here, don’t hesitate to contact us

    • PRIVATELY GUIDED: We create life-changing experiences that bring you face-to-face with the most iconic animals in africa, with a highly qualified private guide by your side.
    • ATTENTION TO DETAIL: Every single Itinerary in african safari is scrutinized to its minutest details making sure you have a seamless experience.
    • COMMUNITY: Ameliya Guides ensure that you may arrive as guests but you leave as a part of our growing african family.
    • CONSCIOUS FOOTPRINT: Partnerships with sustainable and fair-practice businesses to ensure a minimal impact on the ecosystem and community.

    • CONSERVATION FOCUSED: In addition to our ongoing projects, 5% of profits from every african luxury safari experience booked goes back into conservation & education. Read more about this on our impact page.

    Ameliya Safaris was built with a motto in mind- “What we can see, we can love, and what we love, we will fight to protect” We dedicate 5% of proceeds from every itinerary to conservation, tailoring each journey not just to you, but to its positive impact on the people, places, and wildlife it touches.

    That commitment is already at work in the field. We’ve electrified 175 anti-poaching camps with solar lamps and equipped rangers with 200 raincoats, 250 pairs of boots, 200 field bags, and 225 solar-powered torches — the essential gear behind every patrol. We have also rescued over 500 conflicted wild animals through our partnership with RESQ CT. 

    On the fringes of Bandhavgarh National Park, three waterholes we built now sustain more than three tiger families, five resident leopards, three sloth bears, and countless herbivores and birds. One of these waterholes is within the new Ameliya Conservancy – an abandoned farmland that we rehabilitated into a wild forest patch by planting one native tree for every guest on safari with Ameliya.

    We also believe education is the backbone of conservation. Through partnerships with organizations like The Last Wilderness Foundation and World Wildlife Fund, we invest in the communities living alongside wild animals — and the children who will one day protect them.
