Incredible safari with Omary!!!
5/5

We did a 4 day safari, Tarangere, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Our guide was Omary, what a legend! Omary is so knowledgeable and such a fun person to be in the car with for many hours! I wish I could bottle his laugh for a sad day 😄 Omary made our experience an unforgettable one and made sure we saw everything possible and as up close as possible - the big 5 and the ugly 5 🤣 Would recommend to anyone! We did mid range accomodation and it was stunning!

Well organized, flexible tour operator with experienced, knowledgeable and patient guide
5/5

Having grown up in South Africa visiting many parks in that region, I had realistic expectations from this tour of Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. On the other hand, Serengeti is perhaps the most famous savannah region in the world, and I was excited finally to visit this area and I had high hopes for the visit. On the four-day tour I was nevertheless amazed to see so much wildlife, much more than expected, including big cats that are very elusive (including a cheetah and cub feeding, multiple lions, and two leopards). Partly the short grass in the dry season might've made it easier to spot the animals, and we were lucky to come across them. I was also lucky to join a relaxed and patient group of fellow-travelers (put together by the tour operator and unknown to me before the tour). However, the greatest credit is due to Simba, our expert guide with many years of experience; patient, kind and humble, Simba is obviously passionate about his work. Simba was able to anticipate the movements and behaviour of the animals, and on several occasions he suggested we pause at a site in the park, observing the animal behaviour, and he correctly predicted what the animals would do. By patiently waiting, we were able to experience some "National Geographic" moments - an elephant herd wallowing in the mud, hyena making a kill, another hiding a kill, etc. While there's an element of luck in these sightings, we would certainly have missed them if it weren't for Simba's patient approach, and we saw several other tour groups moving on down the road and missing the action rather than waiting as per our guide's suggestion to us. Simba accommodated our interests as a group, also spotting several bird species for us. Apart from his expert knowledge of the animals, Simba also expertly negotiated the bumpy roads. The company was communicative and responsive, and I partly chose this tour because it included the opportunity also to visit Olduvai Gorge within the four days (a highlight for visitors interested in evolution and anthropology, but not necessarily of interest or known to every visitor). With retrospect, I might've committed a separate half-day to this part of the tour, as it's hard to spend much time there while also fitting in the visits to Ngorongoro and Serengeti, but I do very much appreciate that this tour operator made it possible in the limited time I had, and Simba worked hard to fit it in. The tour price was reasonable and the experience surpassed my expectations. I highly recommend this company.

Omary ensures that you have the ultimate Serengeti experience.
5/5

Game travel provided an extraordinary experience on my Safari game drive . In addition patiently waited for opportunities to experience all the big 5 to ensure we had lasting memories. I highly recommend Gamedrive and look forward to my next adventure with the company and make sure Omary is your guide .

Safari trip with great guides/drivers
5/5

This review is for Omary who wasn’t my guide for the safari but was my driver back to Arusha on my final day of the safari. He was polite and gregarious with a great sense of humour and was a great driver to end the trip with.

Amazing start to our honeymoon
5/5

We had the 5 day group safari in Tarangire, Ngorogoro and serengeti.

Our drivers Omary and Joel made this experience amazing, they were eager to share their knowledge and find amazing opportunities for photography. Their humour and friendliness made the holiday even better. It was so nice to see that they both loved their jobs, and truly enjoyed being safari guides. If you want an awesome experience I can highly reccomend.
