Perfect Safari in Kenya
We had an excellent journey in Kenya with Stephen (owner) and Elijah (guide and driver). Everything was just perfect and met or exceeded our expectations. The whole trip was organised by Stephen following our requests (not like with typical travel agencies where you have to buy a package in which nothing can be changed!!) Our driver was fun, flexible and had a great knowledge of all parks we visited (Massai Mara, Naivasha, Hells Gate, Amboseli, Tsavo East/West). Stephen remained available 24/7. Send an email and get an answer within few minutes! I challenge any major travel agency to do the same, especially on weekend!!!
Just perfect!
If you need any advice, ask Stephen for my contact.

Wonderful great Safari experience!
We had the best safari experience, more than we could have imagined. From the beginning when we booked, Simon our contact was very accommodating of our requests and very professional. During the safari James our guide was exceptional! Very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to find the animals et c.c. lovely time. Highly recommend this tour company!
3 day Amboseli trip was a dream I have had and it did not disappoint.
The trip was put together at short notice. Dennis our guide was a bit dis-organised at first but his enthusiasm, especially for photography, quickly overcame that. Joshua, his driver and team mate, was someone I would travel anywhere with. He was understanding of our requests regarding the on-going buzz of the radio, stopping to watch birds, and generally a most considerate man. How he negotiated the Nairobi traffic remains a mystery! Amboseli was an amazing experience. Wide open spaces. Great game viewing. Large elephant herds as promised. View of Mt Kilimanjaro would have been excellent except for the overcast weather. Will definitely go again.

not recommendable
Arrangements before starting the trip were managed well. The trip started with a delay of 2,5 hours. No explanations were provided, neither an information about the timing of the later departure. The accommodation in the tent lodge was not good at all: the mosquito net was not arranged, the bathroom was really dirty, food was acceptable, service personal rather rude. The bus we were transported in was not comfortable and noisy. The driver drove safely, was friendly and adapted to our wishes along the game drive. The game drive was nice as the wildlife we could observe was stunning.

Unforgettable safari experience!
We booked a 6 day safari with Ranger Afrika to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park and Lake Manyara National Park. Our trip was custom made and nothing we inquired about was a problem as Ezekiel's responses were fast, clear and professional. The game drives in all the parks were great and the guide had a lot of knowledge about every park we visited and all the wildlife. We spotted a lot of wildlife and our stays at Kubu Kubu Lodge and Maramboi Tented Camp were amazing.
We had unforgettable safari experience and i would absolutely recommend Ranger Afrika to anyone who wants to do a Private Safari in Tanzania.

it was very good trip with go explore safaris in tanzania
I would be so naïve if I had never planned this trip to Tanzania with this company after a period of searching on trip advisor and other travel websites I found go explore safaris and sent them my trip request for me and my daughters as they had gotten holidays from there college and I decided to plan for them a trip to Africa. Tanzania was the main destination so brian was the main correspondence person who responded to all my emails, he gave us a very nice tailor made trip proposal for 11 days in Tanzania visiting all the top destinations in Tanzania. so after a few emails and couple of questions we trusted this company and made our trip meet our expectations. my kids were so happy we had the very best of the trip we visited tarangire national park, Serengeti, lake manyara and Ngorongoro reserve which were so much full of wildlife and the evolving masai cultural visit in olpopongi in Arusha the lodges we slept in were very nice and clean me and my kids shared a very nice family room at Serengeti Serena lodge which had the best views in the plains hamza our guide was a very experienced driver guide and had a lot of information about his country and was happy sharing every moment making the trip so much fun I definitely have to recommend the services of your company to anyone travelling here in east Africa and looking forward to coming back to track the gorillas in uganda.
Fantastic experience, unbeatable service, great lodges, excelled in every aspect
Having only seen the reviews on safaribookings of a company I had never heard of I was stunned by the speed of responses to any query by Mr Otienio, I felt as if I was really valued. I asked if a safari could be modified expecting an extra day at the start or end yet I was given possibilities for during the safari where we could make the most of our time. Once on safari we found we were spending more time on game drives than with previous companies in fact we doubled the time. Our driver Rewer (Stanley) was great, we could spend as little or as long time as we wanted with each animal or bird whilst he considered where to get the best photos from. He listened to what we wanted from our safari - spending time with good views of animals rather than a quick view to tick a box and moving on, so not waiting for hours next to a bush waiting for a sleeping leopard to come out when all you could see was the size of a postage stamp and instead viewing heards of topi and zebra. The quality of our lodges was excellent - Tsavo East Voi Wildlife lodge fantastic lodge and location with loads of elephants visiting the waterhole, Tsavo West Negulia Lodge - dated but fantastic views and plenty of elephants and evening leopard, Amboseli Kibo camp - fantastic tent full of character with great views of Kilimanjaro, Naivasha Elsamere - beautiful surroundings, Nakuru Sopa Lodge - stunning quality, Baringo Soi Safari lodge - dated with fantastic views and very helpful chef, Masai Mara Sekanani Camp - fantastic tent in very private surroundings. Every lodge and tent was excellent each with their own character although because of the amount of time spent on game drives we did not spend as much time in the lodges. Please be aware that some of the drives between lodges can be very lengthy but this allows you experience the most variety of animals and views. The journey between masai mara and nairobe can be particularly problematic as there can be frequent massive traffic jams at the rift valley escarpment which can entail a 2 hour detour to avoid. Overall I was thoroughly impressed with the standard of service and especially considering the excellent price exceeded all my expectations.

3-day gorilla trekking in Bwindi, Uganda
We had an amazing experience in Uganda. The trip from Entebbe to Bwindi was fascinating and informative, as our guide, David, explained about the sights and Ugandan culture, and answered our questions. Tracking the gorillas was an unforgettable experience and more than met our expectations, thanks to Grassrootz who provided us with an expert guide and comfortable accommodations. Highly recommended!

Very exhilarating experience with knowledgeable and positive guides.
Best to start early in the morning, which gives you the best chance of spotting the Lions and Cheetahs, if lucky on hunt. Great experience, would like to do it again.
