awesome communication, works with you to find the best package as possible, great operator
I have never expected that I will get the great vacation with this operator. He worked with my short vacation, being a solo traveler. Great communication, prompt response on all my questions, helped to puck the best time for me to go on safari. I don't enjoy heat and humidity. I felt very safe there even being a solo female traveler. Everything was exactly as described. Shuttle to the lodge and lodge were great. I like the stuff at the lodge. Very courteous and friendly. Very good selection and taste of food at the lodge, cooked to order. Amazing nights with bonfire at the lodge. Game driver was awesome. I got lucky to see all 5 big and 5 ugly at the safari besides other animals. Tour guide for panoramic view was very friendly and courteous. He showed more interesting places than I expected. I made a lot of photos. I had one of the best vacations of my life.

Beautiful nature and stay in camp is an amazing experience.
We stayed 2 nights in a camp and did the whole day drive, boat trip during sunset, bush walk a local village visit. The whole experience, from the flight that we took from Zanzibar, through the stay in the camp, dinners, sleeping, showering, to the boat and car, meeting thousands of beautiful animals (elephants, antilopes, girrafes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, lions…), many absolutely nice people from the staff, together made unforgetable beautiful memories and best holiday ever.

Amazing! the trip of a livetime!!
Overall the experience was breathtaking. We were surprised by how friendly everyone was, and the scenery is overwelming. It is an underdeveloped country in many ways, but they know how to make the most of the amazing scenery they have.
The camps were very well organized, and eventhough many things can happen, we always felt secure.
Do not expect 5 star hotel experience, it is more about enjoying the wild life and the landscapes, but still the hotels are more than acceptable, the food is good and the people are amazing!!

Best team ever
My friend and I decided to do the safari with this company and everything was great. They helped us a lot with everything from the first moment till the last one. Also, they are super nice people. In conclusion, if I come back, I will come back to them.

Wonderful trip, my highlight of East Africa
I had a 3 day stay in Uganda to trek Gorillas and Sander was very helpful organising trip and advising points of interest on route to Bwindi. He even gave a packing list which was very useful!
From the minute I landed my guides Lamson and Nelco made me feel welcome, safe and entertained. They were full of local knowledge and there was never a dull moment! They liased with gorilla trek guide to anticipate how long hike would take and arranged a community walk when we returned (would highly recommend doing this if going to Uganda, Bwindi in particular) Trip ran very smoothly and we also visited Equater line and lake Victoria. So happy I chose Grassrootz as my first stop in East Africa, 3 days was just long enough to realise I could have spent much longer there! I have already recommended this company to friends who are interested in same trip.
One thing to consider is small notes for tips. Everything included in grassrootz but you may want to tip gorilla guide/ porters/ leave donation if visiting local school ect. Grassrootz also work with local charities if bringing clothes/ school supplies/ medicine ect

Incredible experience, this is a Safari !
Where to start ?
The 7 day safari was just amazing, and a big part of that is thanks to Francis. He was incredibly generous and welcoming throughout our stay! Always very smiling even at 6am :) He was always on time, the program was respected, really perfect

Experienced, thorough and flexible
Tongesai took us through Botswana and Zimbabwe. Made sure everything was organised from activities, food, souvenir shopping, accommodation and travel. He was very flexible throughout the trip with any changes made. I had an amazing trip on my first time to these countries and Tongesai made it all happen. Can not recommend him and cultural vibes enough
