Outstanding service
I can't give a score that is too high for Gametrackers! I highly recommend them! I have made four trips to east Africa and have used Gametrackers each time for organizing our safari. Stacey organized a three week trip for my university group through Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania. Our trip included visits to Murchison Falls NP, Jinja, the Masai Mara, Hells Gate NP, and Amboseli. Stacey did a terrific job of communicating with me before the trip. She was very patient in answering all of my questions and was responsive to our needs and requests. During the trip, every detail was covered. Overall, the entire organization including the guide (Rufus), driver (Joseph), and cook (Nicholas) were very professional, courteous, personable, and attentive. One aspect of safari travel is that plans constantly change. The Gametrackers staff was terrific in communicating with me about issues and coming up with good solutions for our group. I would not travel to east Africa if Gametrackers wasn't involved. Again, I highly recommend Gametrackers and I plan to use them again for my next trip.

Amazing wild safari thanks to professionalism authenticity and commitment
The safari was great. Guides were great. We discovered a really authentic Africa, with a great service.
I do recommend Gametrackers, especially if you want to go in the north of Kenya.

Amazing experience with such great guides, especially Rufus!
Just about everything was as good or better than we expected. We recognize this was a mid-range safari but it felt better/higher than mid-range, much of the time.

Fantastic safari adventure that created a lifetime's worth of memories!
My two college-age sons and I selected Gametrackers based on the reviews here and could not have been more pleased with every aspect of our 10-day Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Ngorongoro, and Serengeti camping safari. From our first email contact with Stacey Bisley through our final goodbyes to our guide, Rufus Kimani, and our amazing bush chef, Charles, every aspect of Gametrackers' handling of our safari conveyed care and professionalism. If you are reading this and considering whether or not to invest in this trip of a lifetime, just do it! Rufus has an intimate knowledge of each destination and often positioned us to experience the majesty of African wildlife in ways that other guides simply could not match. Charles was a magician with the campfire, cooking delicious hot breakfasts and dinners every day, and providing fresh fruits, vegetables, and sandwiches for lunch. We never went to bed hungry, and always had energy for full days of going face to face with the world's most spectacular wildlife. The highlights of this safari are way too many to remember, but we took over a thousand photos to help spur our memories! Thank you, Gametrackers, for giving us such an intimate look at your beautiful East Africa. By the way, if anybody has questions about our safari, feel free to email me and I will be glad to help you plan your trip.
Couldn't be better
I took a safari with Zachary and Aflred, and it could not have been better! Gametrackers has earned a name for themselves, and it's very much deserved. We saw every animal, every detail was planned out and went accordingly, and our guides were very gracious and kind to be around. 5 stars for Gametrackers!

Amazing Experience!!!
Our group of 4 began communicating via email with Gametrackers several months prior to our visit. I greatly appreciate how fast and thorough every single email was from Gametrackers. (Thanks Stacey!) We did a 6 safari from Nairobi to Mombasa that included Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli. We had the best time ever! Our tour guide/driver, Daniel, was the reason for us seeing all of the Big 5 immediately. He's very smart and incredibly passionate about what he does. Not only did he make sure we were able to get pictures, but he respected the animals. We saw tons of other tour guides doing outrageous things and harassing the animals. We learned so much from him about the animals and the country. He even knew Lion King songs, so you can't get much better than that! :) Our chef, Joseph worked wonders with a propane tank and a hot plate. He had the best attitude and work ethic. We loved every meal that he cooked! We truly enjoyed every part of our trip. Thanks so much to the whole team at Gametrackers!

it was totally awesome full of adventure our guide was very skilled and knew places for sightings
Our guide Karisa made us feel comfortable having 15 years experience with the company he was very knowledgeable knowing spots to get the best viewing. He worked well with the other team liaising with them while we were out in the bush and answered every questions.
I would not hesitate to recommend Gametrackers for any Safari and when reading this we need to save Masai Mara game park from farming.

Amazing and meaningful trip!
Communication was great! My emails always received a rapid response - especially given time difference. The safari itself was amazing. Apart from seeing all the stunning animals, what really made the experience was our guides (Alfred and George). They took such great care of us, they were patient with our questions, and always tried to make sure we were heaving a great time. My partner and I miss them actually. Please tip handsomely! Your guides work very hard.

A third great experience with Gametrackers K
Great 10-days off-the-beaten-track safari from Nairobi to North Kenya and back.
Fantastic game drives at Samburu, incredible experiences among remote tribes such as the Gabbra, El Molo and Turkana people.
Once again, Daniel and Charles (driver and cook) did all their best (which is much) for our comfort, security and enjoyment of the trip.
Highly recommendable company for any kind of safari in Kenya.
We intend to come back for a 4th safari with Gametrackers K, probably to Tsavo.

A lifetime trip.
What an awesome trip it was,...i would say,'gametrackers lead,others follow'.
We had a wonderful time during the Lake Turkana Cultural Festival,everything was well executed,
wonderful and friendly staff,very professional too,the food was on point,we slept in tents all the way which was a great idea.I also met and made new friends during this trip,some who have become completely part of my life.
In short it was a great adventure with gametrackers,having been driven in an overland truck and so i would recommend them anytime to anyone
