Very professional and helpful from the first contact all the way through the safari experience
5/5

The bottom line: highly recommended company - Stacey brilliant, reliable, quick to reply and finding solutions for requirements;
Zack, our guide: very experienced - amazing at spotting wild life whilst negotiating at times tricky driving conditions, always happy to go the extra mile, very patient with and kind to my teenage boys! He is very knowledgeable, flexible and super company. He made us feel very safe, secure, extremely well looked after and even looked with us for a place in Nairobi to get some great coffee to take home. Nothing too difficult or too much for him.
We went the week before Christmas and came back New Year's Eve. Before Christmas, we were picked up at the airport in Nairobi, went to Ol Pajeta and then to Lake Nakuru. Both destinations had great wild life and Zack was just happy to spent as much time as we wanted on game drives. I was impressed by the good relationships the guides from different companies have in terms of sharing information on sightings of animals and it gave a real nice feel of NOT competition, but the desire to make the experience really great for us and also demonstrated the passion of Zack for the job and him enjoying the wildlife, landscapes, the country really. It's lovely to be in the company of someone who clearly enjoys sharing his amazing country.
Gametrackers then had made it possible for us to spent 2.5days over Christmas with our friends in Molo. Zack took as there and picked us up and even during our stay in Molo made sure we were ok and didn't need anything else.
After Christmas we had a brief overnight stop in Naivasha - did a boat safari for the hippos. Didn't go to Hell's gate as a) gorge was still closed after the incident of flash flooding a few yrs ago and it was also raining. The next day we went on to go to the Masai Mara which was truly spectacular. Again, Zack spent plenty of time to do game drives with us, even went into Tanzania and made great effort (and showed amazing driving skills in mud without getting stuck unlike several other vehicles) for us to see any animal he could spot far away or close by.
A brilliant experience, feeling safe and well looked after.
We all got on fantastically with Zack as he is so approachable. Would always go with Gametrackers again and of course ask for Zack to be our guide!
Fantastic country, great company

5/5

Our family experience with Gametrackers was excellent. I had travelled with them 30 years ago so when I wanted to go with my family who would be visiting for the first time I contacted them explaining who we were and where I would like to visit. All communication via e mail with Judy was smooth and efficient answering my questions promptly and clearly. She designed a bespoke trip for us incorporating the Rift Valley, Lakes Naivasha and Nakuru and the Masai Mara. The recommended accommodation was perfect for our needs and we enjoyed staying at both Dea’s Guesthouse in Naivasha and at Enkorok camp in the Mara. Our driver/guide Agostino was clearly experienced and kept us fully informed of what each day’s plan was. He was knowledgeable and passionate about Kenya and its’ wildlife and created a relaxed enjoyable atmosphere while clearly working very hard to ensure we got the most out of our trip.
His suggestions and planning of the days were invaluable - there were so many highlights just two to mention was the bicycle safari in Hell’s Gate and the whole day safari in the Masai Mara with breakfast and lunch enjoyed under a tree. We saw so much -the whole experience continues to sink in as we look at the many photographs we were able to take.

I fell in love with Kenya as a student and am happy to say that with the help of Gametrackers two more students of the next generation have become Kenya enthusiasts.

The tour was amazing. We saw 6 lions, hippo, giraffe and all sorts of other animals. Adrian was a great guide. Thank you so much!!! He was so knowledgeable and knew where to find all the animals. He also knew so much about plants and medicinal purpose of them, so interesting!

The tour was really easy to book and arrange. It really was such great value for money. Will definitely be using them again soon.

Four of us did a self made tour form Nairobi, Samburu, Masai Mara, Serengeti and the crater. Our guide was Rufus who was fantastic, friendly informative and patient. Our driver in Tanzania was Rogers who was a true professional and navigated the roads with expertise. Would highly recommend Gametrackers. We had a great trip with fantastic accommodation.

We had an amazing trip exploring the parks in Kenya - in large part due to Gametrackers, who helped us plan the trip and who guided us through almost two weeks of safari. Special mention to our guide Zack who was not only knowledgeable, friendly and hardworking, but also took good care of us during the trip. Highly recommended - we would definitely go with Gametrackers next time we go on safari :)

5/5

I planned our trip pre-pandemic in 2019 and initially I booked with Gametrackers an 8-day safari only, but when at the end of January 2022, we decided to start to travel again, I planned our whole trip with them to have one place of contact if we had to cancel again. This turned out to be a great decision because everything was organized perfectly. We did not have to worry about anything because every accommodation, transport, activity, and PCR test were taken care of.

When I selected Gametrackers I compared them with 4 other tour companies that were mentioned in my travel guides and I chose them because of their long experience, the company exists since over 40 years, and their reasonable pricing – some other companies offered the same safari, with the same accommodations and transport for up to 18% more. It tuned out that Gametrackers have also the most experienced and knowledgeable guides. Rufus who traveled with us for 10 days is amazing. Not only he can answer every question you could think of, but he also knows where the lions are climbing trees, giraffes are drinking water, the leopards are hunting. He is the best travel companion you can think of, we just had to express our wishes, and he took care of them. We were so spoiled.

One other thing that is very important for a safari is the vehicle and Gametrackers has simply the best. Their cars are specifically adapted for game viewing. You can lift the roof so that you have a 360 view, and you are still protected from the sun.
Before the travel we had our doubts if it is safe to travel again, but now we are so happy we did it. I read in my guidebooks that in high season it can get busy to the extent that you have 20 cars parked next to every sleeping lion, but we had it all undisturbed. Gametrackers guides are all vaccinated and tested before the start of the trip. The hotels are arranging a doctor to come in the hotel to take the PCR test if needed. Everything was much easier than expected.

Our trip started in Nairobi. The safari included in Kenya: Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli, in Tanzania: Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti National Park. Then we flew from Arusha to Zanzibar visiting Stone Town and Chumbe Island. At the end we travelled home from Dar es Saalam. It was an amazing experience.
