Personalised advice and tour planning + professional and experienced guide makes an amazing safari!
Gametrackers put together a customised tour, within my budget, and always responded in a friendly and flexible manner to the itinary and other questions. The tour guide on site was professional and experienced, was able to tell me a lot about the animals and the region. I appreciated he knew somewhat remote quiet places for animal observations, always paying attention to animal behaviour and keeping disturbance to a minimum.
I enjoyed the tour and always felt that I was in good hands. I have many wonderful memories from the trip - many thanks to the whole team!

Excellent Safari with Gametrackers!
Adrian was an excellent guide and driver, and we had a wonderful Safari! He catered very well to our needs, especially understanding that we had a young child and also that we had done many safaris before. Thank you Adrian for the excellent adventure! Gametrackers were also able to accommodate all my requests to stay inside the park and travel by 4x4 safari jeep despite making the inquiry and booking with only a few days notice. This is very much appreciated and it was excellent service.

Safari of a lifetime for our family with Gametrackers!
We were very impressed by the quality and efficiency we received when booking our safari with Gametrackers. All my emails were responded to swiftly by Stacey and Judy and choices of accommodation were up to standard. We travelled to Samburu, Ngurunit, Ol Pejeta, Naivasha and the Masai Mara. Our driver Karisa had vast knowledge on the tribes, customs, wildlife and locations. He was extremely friendly and catered to all of our needs. We cannot recommend Karisa and the Gametrackers team enough, they were just excellent.

Great expérience
I thoroughly enjoyed Gametrackers' services during my Kenyan safari with my daughter. The exchanges with Stacey during the safari planning were perfect—she was responsive, knowledgeable, and helped us design an ideal itinerary. Our guide Karisa was attentive, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable about the locations and wildlife. The selection of hotels and camps was excellent, offering comfort and authentic experiences. All of this came at a very reasonable price, proving exceptional value for money. I highly recommend booking directly with them rather than going through a European agency—you'll get personalized service, better rates, and direct communication with the team on the ground.

Outstanding tailor made safari experience with Gametrackers.
My wife and myself did our first camping safari with Gametrackers in 2012 and we had an excellent time. That’s why I chose Gametrackers again for another safari but this time with our 2 kids, 8 and 12 years old. I wanted a tailor made trip to the northern parks and also visit some off the beaten track locations. Judy in the office took care of all my wishes and also gave me some excellent ideas for some special excursions, like one to Reteti Elephant Sanctuary or a visit to Nghurunit. Judy replied very quickly to my emails and she found a solution for every issue I had organising our trip. Judy and her team at gametrackers also had a little surprise for my daughter’s birthday. Happy kids 😀
Our guide was Rufus and the cook was Caleb. The camping food was excellent, lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. Caleb did a superb job and the kids loved his pancakes and french toast for breakfast. Dinner was amazing, we had fish, meat, pasta, rice, chapati, ugali, etc.. Caleb never disappointed with his cooking.
Our guide Rufus has over 30 years of experience and has many interesting stories to tell. He did an excellent job driving us around northern Kenya, even though most of our trip was driving off-road. Gametrackers’ old Toyota Landcruisers are very good and can handle even the toughest driving conditions. 5 Stars for Rufus who also got us out of a serious traffic jam using his off-road driving skills and knowledge. I also give Rufus an extra 6th star because of his lion tracking skills in Meru. We got woken up at 5 am by the roaring of lions and Rufus quickly proposed to go and look for them. We jumped in the car and after a short time following lion footprints and listening to their roaring we found them. The kids were very excited.
Our highlights were the hike to the Dragon’s teeth in Aberdare national park, camping in Meru national park where we got elephants visiting our campsite, horse riding with the kids near Naivasha, climbing mount Longonot volcano, Reteti elephant sanctuary and Ol Pejeta where we saw the last 2 northern white rhinos and visited a chimpanzee orphanage. My personal highlight was seeing the Samburu special 5 and our stay a Lion’s cave lodge. Our next safari to Tanzania will definitely be again with Gametrackers. Excellent value for money.
