(Two Words) Just Great
1st - I lived in Kenya Jan.1954 to 1960, 4 years as a Policeman and 3 years with Kenya Meat Commision. Since 2000 I have been back 4 times, each time on GTC 1 except for this last trip when I had to take GTC 2 due to shortage of bookings, when by combining 1 & 2 we could go.. Every trip I have had an excellent time, the staff being excellent, the food well above one would expect on a camping safari and the Knowledge of the Driver/Guide to the highest standard. The trips has been fascinating,each time for a different reason. the 2nd time especially as we were able to visit Tuum & Kowop which I knew in 1954, Changed slightly!!! Fully recommended both for scenery and wild life, having seen the big five.

10 days Turukana camping tour
We went to a 10 days Turukana tour. Since we were 5, we could change the length of the tour and the departing date as we like. The tour was much more wonderful than we had expected. The scenery on the way was breathtaking, especially Lake Turukana was beautiful. We were amazed when we saw hundreds of hundreds camels in the deserts and the mirages of them to the horizon. Also we visited some village of nomadic tribe. The color of their clothes and necklaces was fantastic.
Our driver and cook were excellent.
Alfred prepared very nice food though most of us were on diet. Whenever we go somewhere we are disappointed about food but we really enjoyed his meal everyday. Also Karnbo showed us many interesting places and he did his best to entertain us. Fusain, our guardman was very kind and help us a lot. Our tour was superb. I think they must have been tired after this tour. Thank you very much for letting us to have such a wonderful tour.

My high expectations were fully met
After best experiences with Gametrackers in 2012 I decided to choose them again for a 11-day private safari to Lake Turkana via Chalbi desert. And I was again fully satisfied with the service me, my wife and three friends got from Gametrackers. With Judy I worked out the itinerary in the shortest time. After 2 Mails all was clear and we had full agreement. I was very happy to be on safari again with Adrien the driver guide I already had in 2012. On the game drives with him I recorded again with great pleasure the special feeling he has what animal would do next and therefore, he had always the car in the best possible position when leopards and lions, respectively passes closely to us. And I appreciate very much that he never goes too close to the animals - we kept distance, admired the wild animals and tried not to disturb them too much. Moreover, Adrien is a very good driver not only during the game drives but also on the beaten tracks in the desert.
Peter, the safari chief, is the congenial partner to Adrien. He also did a great job during the whole safari and we all were very happy to have him with us. Consequently also my 2nd safari with Gametrackers was a full success and met all our expectations.

Exceptional Customer Service
Although I wasn't able to go on safari with Gametrackers due to a last minute injury, having used several other Kenyan tour operators in the past, I am compelled to write about Gametrackers' exceptional customer service.
Being a lone traveller with specific needs makes it quite difficult to find a suitable group to join. I got in touch with several Kenyan tour operators and Stacey was always the quickest to respond to my numerous queries and never lost patience with me either. Gametrackers also provided me with the only working solution to go on safari. The other operators just weren't flexible enough to accommodate a single traveller at a reasonable fee.
My preference is to get off the beaten track and knowing the Mara extremely well, I talked to George our guide before committing to going on safari. George had excellent knowledge of all the areas I was interested in visiting and he was extremely polite.
Unfortunately on the day before the safari I hurt my back and I was unable to travel. Even with the last minute withdrawal, Stacey, Rufus and George were caring and understanding. I was touched by their genuine concern and well wishes. I will not hesitate to use Gametrackers in the future and recommend them highly.

Fantastic safaris to Amboseli and Tsavo East and West - Knowledgable guides, punctual and flexible
The office staff were very responsive to all our needs and communication beforehand was excellent. The guides were very punctual, friendly and knowledgable, even spotting a lion print in the road as we were driving along and showing us where to look for parrots from a bird call and cheetahs stalking prey. We saw over 80 species of animals and birds on 5 days of safari. They exceeded our expectations in the transport provided (great 4x4), their knowledge and in the animals we saw including lions. We were picked up from Nairobi for a 2 day safari in Amboseli, then dropped off at a friends house in Voi and then 4 days later picked up again to go on a 3 days safari to Tsavo West and Tsavo East finally being dropped at Dinai on the coast. They were very flexible and we did exactly what we wanted to do.
Would highly recommend Gametrackers K Ltd.

Outstanding organization and service!!!
We had a spectacular 2 week visit to Kenya organized by Gametrackers. We visited Lake Bogoria, Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara and Mombasa. Stacey helped with every aspect of advising and planning our tailor-made trip, even making last minute changes to facilitate following the flamingos to their new feeding area. Our accommodations and guides (Adrian, Jacob, John) were outstanding; every effort was made to see that our every need was met and that we saw the best sights in our allotted time. I would totally recommend using this company!!

Daniel was an excellent tour operator. He was knowledgeable and friendly.
We were very happy with the tour Gametrackers provided my family. Daniel, our tour guide was great. The cook, guard and everyone were extremely friendly and helpful. The service all-around was top notch. The camp was way over our expectations. We were happy with our Gametrackers tour in 1998 so I have been recommending you to people. Now that we've experienced another tour with you, I would definitely not hesitate to recommend Gametrackers to anyone. You're the best value out there so keep up the good work.
