Absolutely amazing experience in Tanzania with Roko
We just spent one month touring South and East Africa and spent a lot of time researching this adventure beforehand. We prefer dealing with small and locally owned companies when possible. We are very fortunate to have chosen Roko Safaris for our Tanzania leg of the trip. First of all, trip planning and communication with both Roko and Miranda was very easy . Our many questions and emails were handled promptly and courteously.This trip was carefully designed around our wishes. Secondly, Roko is a local who grew up in the Masaai community. His insights into local customs and culture added a very special and unique aspect to a safari that is hard, if not impossible, to replicate. This was especially important to us as we were traveling with our 14 year old grandson and we wanted him to have a real and genuine cultural experience. This was far more than just a game viewing safari only and that was a desired outcome for us.
We could not be any more pleased with our time with Roko Safaris. The last thing to mention is that Roko's ability to spot game while on a game drive is remarkeable. We were able to watch and observe animals that other safari vehicles drove past without noticing. I liked the fact that he was not using the radio to go to the game that others had found. It made for a more genuine and relaxed safari experience. I strongly recommend Roko Safaris if you considering a visit to Tanzania. This safari far exceeded our expectations!

Amazing Kenya Safari for Our Honeymoon
We’ve just finished our 6‑day, 5‑night Kenya safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli.
Tabitha replied to emails very quickly. As it was our honeymoon, she arranged fresh flowers and coordinated with hotels for honeymoon decorations.
Our guide Collin Sempele, with more than 25 years of experience, knows animal habits and local weather very well. We saw the African Big Five and roughly 20‑30 species of animals. He gave us great tips for wildlife sightings and photography, and we got so many amazing shots.
We are very happy with this Kenya trip overall.
