Easy. Excellent. Enjoyable!
With the overwhelming amount of touring companies to choose from, we can confidently say that booking with Grassrootz was our best decision for our Africa adventure!
We actually had two other companies booked for other country visits, and chose Grassrootz for the Uganda portion of our trip. Our 21 day trip to Uganda was truly a highlight! We wished we could have had used them for our entire visit to other parts of Africa!
The communications prior to the trip were efficient and timely. It made it easy to engage with them and get answers to our questions. We didn’t need to wait more than a few hours for a response and were incredible impressed by how prompt they were and easy to work with. They were able to accommodate our personal requests and make adaptations to the tours so we could make the most out of our trip! It made an overwhelming decision super easy! We felt like we got the best bang for our buck especially after talking to other visitors and comparing. We could always count on our guide and the owner to be responsive to our needs. We had an exceptional tour.
Our guide Amos made our trip unforgettable. We not only felt like he was knowledgeable of the areas we visited but he just had this spark that all great guides have! He found ways to take our regularly planned itinerary and still incorporate little surprises into it or moments for us to enjoy! No prompting, just him doing his thing. Now THAT is a true guide! His charismatic personality made us feel at ease and we genuinely feel like we gained a lifelong friend. He was professional, always keeping the car clean, keeping us on schedule, being respectful, and just knows how to handle people. 21 days with a stranger can be intimidating but with Amos, it never felt awkward or daunting. He just gets it! If you’re looking for an Africa adventure with an exceptional guide, Grassrootz with Amos is what you need! Thanks guys! We will be talking about our Uganda trip for years to come!

Unforgettable Safari!
We spent 7 unforgettable days with Silver Spark Africa Safaris, and the entire trip was absolutely amazing. We visited every park as outlined in our itinerary, and everything ran smoothly exactly as planned. We were fortunate to see all the animals we had hoped for, including some very rare species in Samburu National Park.
Our guide, John, was friendly, patient and very knowledgeable. He shared fascinating insights about wildlife as well as local culture, which made the experience even more enriching.
We later extended our journey to Tanzania’s Ndutu Area for the calving season, and it turned out to be a once in a lifetime experience. From the initial planning stages to the accommodations and guiding, everything was handled perfectly.
The staff at our lodges were welcoming and well organized, ensuring a smooth and comfortable stay throughout. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, professional and responsive.
Thank you, Silver Spark Africa Safaris, for delivering such an incredible safari experience. It truly exceeded our expectations.

Ben is awesome! Highly recommend him!
We spent a few days in the Masai Mara and hired Benson Siranka (BEN) with his super capable Land Cruiser 4x4. Ben is much more than just a driver; he is an expert naturalist. He shared fascinating insights about animal behavior and the Masai Mara ecosystem that made every game drive a learning experience. We also felt completely safe in his hands—he navigated the difficult, muddy roads with ease and always respected the animals by keeping a professional distance. In a way Ben was the highlight of our trip. He was able to spot animals in the far distance and knew how to anticipate their behaviour. He was incredibly patient, allowing us plenty of time for photos without ever making us feel rushed. He is also amazing if you have kids! If you want to see the Big Five, have an awesome experience – I highly recommend Ben!

Beautiful experience
I wanted to tell you that the organization was perfect. The added value of Tremisana, which is a simple but clean structure, aside from the location itself which is evocative, is the staff. All the girls in the kitchen are very kind, always with a smile to give you and what can I say about Big Mama who, as if we were family, tells you that dinner is ready. Her soups are wonderful. Best regards, Francesco.

Individual attention to detail and availability
We had the most amazing experience with the team of Beyond the Plains. Linet was there to prepare and propose a unique travel plan for our family and she was of great advice for the choice of our destinations, accommodation and activities. Not only she was there to prepare the plan, but she was available all the time during our trip and she even did her best to accommodate changes during the trip! Our guide, Rooney, was our kids’ genie in a bottle - they want to see a cheetah - here they are, a rhino - do not ask more… he even found a leopard up in the trees for them!

Amazing professional game drive is ever had in my entire travelling time around the globe...........
Our game drive with Savannah Adventures in Zambezi National Park felt like a classic African safari done the right way. Calm, professional guiding and a relaxed pace made it truly special. Our guide Mthabisi was extremely knowledgeable, and the small-group setting gave it a private, personal touch.
We can highly recommend booking directly with Savannah Adventures. Their office is conveniently located at N1 Hotel, where we booked our drive. Don’t book with street agents—book with Savannah Adventures for a proper safari experience.

Very well coordinated
We have had wonderful experience with Serengeti Smile. They coordinated airport transfers to Safari and timings of everything were all so perfect. I would highly recommend Serengati Smile if anyone planning for Safari. Our Safari guide and driver Zack was an expert driver and very knowledgeable about animals and jungles. Zack made our African Safari so special and memorable experience.

Lawrence was very knowledgeable, and made the experience so much fun!
I was really nervous about traveling to Kenya with my family. Once we started our tour with Lawrence, we felt completely safe. He was very knowledgeable and taught us so much about the culture, places, people and animals. The whole experience was very seemless and we felt pampered the entire time. I am now obsessed with Africa and can’t wait to return!

Knowledgeable, Finds the Best Places
This tour was fantastic, we had one of the best safari days ever. He knew all the spots, had great recommendations for how to structure the day, and navigated the weather perfectly to see all the big 5 and then some. Highly recommend!
