Fascinating to see where my line sat in medieval Europe versus today. The report placed me close to medieval Northern Italian samples and explained the drift toward the modern profile clearly. The interactive map is beautiful.

As an Iranian I was thrilled to see the Ancient Civilizations report trace my line through Iran Neolithic farmers and later empires with real samples. The scholarship is serious and the presentation is gorgeous.
I am from Sicily and the report captured the Greek, North African and mainland Italian layers perfectly. The closest ancient samples were from exactly the periods my family stories mention. I have recommended it to my cousins.
The Ancient Civilizations report is a brilliant piece of work. Seeing how my DNA maps onto Bell Beaker, Corded Ware and the later medieval samples gave me a timeline of my ancestors I never expected from a consumer test. The historical notes are excellent.
Being Igbo, most ancestry sites lump all of West Africa together. The DNA Origin Report actually placed me near the right populations and the explanation was respectful and clear. It took a couple of days but the human touch was obvious. Highly recommend for African customers.
I tested with three different companies and never got real clarity until this report. The two way mixture model finally explained why I always showed up as Tuscan on other tools. Seeing my actual Irish and West German split laid out with the G25 distances was eye opening. Worth every euro.
The map was highlighted in all the regions that my paper trail and surnames reveal. ancestry.com is good. but misses so much! this is accurate for my Distant French and Dutch and Swiss-German lineages. currently Ancestry shows my French as Belgium as well as my Netherlands tossed into Belgium. this Separates these regions perfectly! even some very old small percentage of Czechia that I find an ancestor who was from there. but wasn't sure. good concise report!
I was really disappointed with this report which doesn include the who Amazigh Diaspora at the indigenous level. I felt like this was focused on a bias that was pretty hard to ignore as someone with indigenous Amazigh ancestry and my mother haplo as U6A. Hopefully this will be improved.
I love this report I use it to test out my G25 calculations. It gives me a very close read of where my parents come from. Unfortuntaley, due to Ancestry and 23 and Me not being able to accurately track complex lineages there is mistakes in my base DNA test which creeps into how the algorithms handle my markers. This is outside the remit of Explore my DNA and the tools have really helped me bypass this error I am very pleased ans impressed with this specific report.
A nice report and easy to interpret.
Exceptional website! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This web is amazing and its free tools are outstanding for exploring our roots. I am updating my review because Jerome personally reached out after my feedback. He put incredible effort into adjusting my Advanced Ancestry manually and improved it significantly. It's fantastic to see this dedication. They listen to users to constantly improve. I'm a super happy customer and highly recommend it. Thank you!
Bellissimo e molto interessante. Ha confermato altri report fatti in precedenza con altri sistemi di analisi DNA. Sono molto soddisfatto.
I like that the results identify ancestry that it not a part of typical Spanish Caribbean creole stock. The era by era breakdown by Centuries is very informative too. It's a good test as a compliment to what you already know but also can be a great next step if all you know so far is your commercial DNA results. And you get your G25 coordinates for further independent exploration. Overall the test is a good value.
Bastante completo el informe
Phenomenal Report I cant stop raving about it. I finally broke the barriers to the fake commercial DNA Tests to see my real identity today. Thank you to the creators cannot praise you all high enough thank you its life changing. Thanks again.. Keep up the brilliant work its helping people who are indigenous and cannot show up on modern commercial DNA Tests.
Overall, the Fenghuang Report is great and affordable! I originally hoped it would break down my small percentage of Southern Chinese DNA by dialect group to help me connect with relatives. However, because my breakdown showed up as Vietnamese/Thai (likely due to my 60-80% Thai background and Tai-Kadai/Lao roots from my father), it didn't give me much to go on.I think this report is ideal for full Chinese individuals. That said, Thank you!
Absolutely love this report it’s my favourite one I finally saw my North African markers. I finally saw my ancestory for the Third Intermediate Period of Egypt and saw what I see on my g25
Very happy with my report gave me much information no report will be 100 percent because my parents are different ethnicities and I am mixed
I love your web and free tools, but the paid report is disappointing. The free Ethnicity Guesser works great, and the raw data successfully found my family roots . However, the premium Modern Breakdown got completely distorted due to my unscaled G25 file, wrongly classifying me as 50% Latin American. Worse, the AI narrative totally contradicted my top matches, claiming I fit in Navarra/Aragon (which are at the bottom of my list) and completely ignored my massive South Asian and North Africa.
After new update of population samples, I uploaded two different raw data from different companies. The results in both the modern and old models are inaccurate, especially the modern model, which clearly shows overlap and overfitting between some samples. The AI's explanation of the results is also clearly inaccurate; it treats percentages that aren't actually noise as such and generally is inaccurate my known ancestry which doesn't match my extensive genealogy.
I am 75% Polish and 25% Ukrainian. In my Recent Mode report I've got Poland 64.30% Ukraine 24.10% Slovakia 11.60%. The subregions are also quite accurate. It's one of the best reports I've ever seen!
It's the most accurate report I've ever ordered. I am Polish and also have some Ukrainian roots. In my report I've seen the exact regions, where my ancestors were from, according to my genealogy research. I definitely recommend it!
I really liked how everything was explained accurately.
Loved this. Came out with Viking, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Report didn’t cost much either so happy days!
Did the NORDSEE and legends tests in the space of a couple of days. As an Englishman I was very excited to see Danish/Viking connections pop up. Makes perfect sense really being also a Yorkshireman from Danelaw territory. Very impressed. 5 stars.
The report was completed by Piotr Kapuscinski. I'm very happy with the report, it confirms a lot of family history passed down word-of-mouth through the generations, some of which I wasn't too sure about. Now I am! It also shares the same pattern as my LivingDNA results, which I'm also very happy with, only now with this added support (the DNA Origin Report) I am much more confident passing on to other family members. Thank you very much.
Excelente plataforma as ferramentas gratuitas ou os relatórios pagos acessíveis e a atenção que eles dão aos clientes muito bom parabéns
Took the NORDSEE test, Being of English origins and it didn’t disappoint! Lots of insight and detail. Added pieces to my puzzle. Very impressive. Waiting with bated breath for a British isles report!( please!) 5 stars. Excellent!
Great servis, Fast, accurate, and very informative. Especially Second Parent and Balkan Frontier Report. Well done.
Fantastic! I love exploreyourdna! I have tested with 23and me, ancestry and livingdna and score. 100% English on ancestry and 23and me and 97% English on livingdna. This report gave me quite a bit of Scottish but estimated my main ethnicity as Danish, which would make sense in an English context. Overall, very happy with this deep dive. Looking forward to more reports being brought out.
I found the reports to be fantastic and a great company I prefer explore your dna and dna genics and 24 genetics to ancestry dna or my heritage
I am satisfied with the service for many reasons: variety of tools and calculators, reports well explained and with a good price and good attention and quick answer to emails. Good job!
Im not surprised about my results and subclade E CTS 9106 under Comgolese Angolan. I still dont understand my result about my Jewish ancestry they said I would fit more into the Ethiopian Jewish. Beta Israel community. My highest would be Somali then Ethiopian Jew. Does that mean I have Jewish ancestry.
I have been using exploreyourdna with very good results previously. Though the last two reports including G25 Mega-Analysis Report are dubious, bad structured, based on assumptions generated by AI that is based on certain basic algorithmic and triangulation. The last reports contradict totally the other previous reports, or are contradictory between themselves (One showing Roma - Gypsy ancestry and the other one suggesting North African). Using Gedmatch contradicts everything in these reports.
it's always updating and fascinating to see it analyze even the most trivial component of the data very empirical analysis, sometimes too precise but often lacks accuracy in generalization HaploAI has improved a lot, especially worth trying!!!
Worked well once I uploaded both kits. It separated my Chinese and Malay sides neatly and explained the method. The upload took a moment to figure out but support helped quickly.
The Second Parent report was exactly what I needed. By adding one parent it pulled apart my results and showed which side my Eastern European share came from. Clear, clever and genuinely useful for my family tree work.
Useful conversion. My simulated G25 was a decent approximation and worked fine in the modeling tools. The note explaining that official Davidski coordinates are more reliable was appreciated and honest.
The Ancient Civilizations report gave my mixed Colombian background real depth, linking the European side to old Iberian samples. Four stars only because I wanted more Native American ancient references, which I know are limited.
A wonderful idea executed well. My ancestry mapped onto medieval Central European populations and then the modern ones, and the shift made sense with what I know of my family. The map and timeline are a lovely touch.
The G25 simulated tool let me convert my K36 numbers into coordinates I could actually use. Clear about its limits and free to try. Perfect for beginners who do not want to wait for the official request queue.
Really enjoyed the medieval breakdown. Seeing my closest medieval and early modern matches side by side was eye opening. I would have liked a few more British Isles reference points but the analysis was solid and the writing was clear.
As a Greek I loved seeing my ancestry tied to Bronze Age Aegean and later samples. The Ancient Civilizations report reads like a small history book about my own DNA. Beautifully done.
Handy when all I had was a K36 result and no proper G25. The simulated coordinates got me close enough to start exploring in the calculators. Not as precise as the official scaled ones, which the site is honest about, but a great starting point.
The Medieval and Modern report is something I have not seen anywhere else. Watching my ancestry shift between the medieval reference populations and the modern ones, with the map, made history feel personal. The temporal layers were the highlight for me.
Romanian with the Balkan base, a clear Slavic layer and a touch of steppe. The medieval samples it matched me to were spot on. One of the best value reports I have bought.
Detailed West African breakdown that did not just say West African. Akan and Gur related signals separated nicely. I appreciate the effort to do justice to African ancestry.
The Second Parent report helped me see which side of my family my Tibeto Burman trace came from. Useful and clearly explained. The upload step took me two tries but support was patient.
Portuguese from the north. The report nailed the Iberian base with a Roman era Mediterranean layer and a faint North African trace. The closest ancient samples lined up with what I read about our region. Lovely work.
The Ancient Civilizations report gave my Arabian ancestry real historical depth, connecting me to Bronze Age Levantine and Arabian samples. Thoughtful writing and strong sourcing.
I have spent way too many hours in the free calculators and the Genetic Passport tool. Addictive and well built. These free tools alone make the site worth bookmarking.
Got my coordinates fast and they worked well in the calculators. Simple and effective. Would be nice to have a Chinese language note but the process was clear enough.
Zulu heritage confirmed with the wider Bantu context explained well. The tone was warm and the science felt honest. Sharing it with my children so they know where we come from.
Solid French result with the regional detail I hoped for, a Breton lean on one side and Occitan on the other. The two way model was helpful. A touch technical in places but the guide saved me.
Dominican with the tri continental mix everyone here has. The report separated the European, African and small Taino signal honestly. Respectful and clear. I was genuinely moved reading the Taino part.
From Kyiv. The report gave me a precise East Slavic profile with the steppe and farmer layers and pointed me to relevant medieval samples. Genuinely educational, not just a pie chart.
Korean ancestry shown cleanly with the expected Northeast Asian profile and a tiny southern trace. Report is professional. I gave four stars only because I wanted more East Asian ancient samples, which I understand are limited.
The free ROH endogamy detector taught me something real about my own background. Did not expect such a useful tool at no cost. It pushed me to learn more about my ancestry.
Quick, reliable scaled coordinates. I have ordered for several family members now. The price is fair and the turnaround is immediate. No complaints at all.
Filipino with the usual Austronesian base, but the report also picked up a small Spanish and Chinese trace that matches my family names. Beautifully laid out and easy to share with relatives.
Combined two kits into a superkit and my coordinate fit scores dropped a lot, meaning a better match. Clear instructions and instant output. Brilliant little tool.
Egyptian and proud. The Ancient Civilizations report connected me to the right Bronze Age and later samples with a clear narrative. Reading about my ancestors across the centuries was moving.
Good detail for Southeast Asia, which is often ignored. Showed my Kinh majority ancestry with a southern Chinese trace. I would have liked more local reference populations but the analysis was sound.
Irish through and through, or so I thought. The report found a clear Norse layer along the coastal lineage. Loved the maps and the honest distances. This is how a DNA report should be done.
I use the G25 tools and the dendrogram generator constantly for my own hobby projects. Generous to offer this much for free. The phylogenetic tree output is genuinely useful.
Punjabi from Lahore. The report separated my ancestry into the right Iranian farmer, steppe and AASI components instead of one blurry South Asian blob. Excellent explanation of the Indus periphery context.
Uploaded the family trio and got a clean split of which parent contributed what. Helpful for understanding my own results. The interface for uploading could be a little smoother but the output was great.
Peruvian highland roots shown clearly with the Quechua related signal I expected plus a Spanish colonial layer. The report was warm and easy to understand. Great service.
Detailed and well presented. Yoruba ancestry confirmed with a small unexpected Sahelian component that sent me down a research rabbit hole. Four stars only because I would love an African focused ancient sample set in future.
The Ancient Civilizations breakdown for my Ashkenazi background was fascinating. Levantine and Southern European layers shown with real ancient references rather than vague labels. Top quality.
Did exactly what it said. Got my scaled coordinates quickly. I only wish the email had a short note on how to load them into the calculators, but that is a minor thing.
Accurate and kind in tone. The report placed me with Akan related groups and explained the Bantu expansion context. My whole family read it. Money well spent.
The free Haplogroup Explorer and Phenotype Predictor are surprisingly good for tools that cost nothing. I spent an evening exploring my Y line. These got me interested enough to buy the full report later.
As a Turk I expected the usual Anatolian plus Central Asian story. The detail here was far beyond that, showing the layers from Neolithic farmers through to Seljuk era samples. Impressive scholarship behind it.
Very thorough. I learned more about my British and French Canadian roots here than from years on other sites. Took me a second read to understand the NNLS part but the guide helped. Would recommend to any serious genealogy hobbyist.
The Superkit Generator saved me hours. Merged my old 23andMe and a newer Ancestry kit into one clean file and my coordinates improved noticeably. Simple tool that just works.
Finally a report that understands North Africa is not just one thing. It showed my Berber base with the Arab and a little Iberian layer. Written with care. Thank you.
Brazilian with a real mix of Portuguese, Native and African. Most tools give me mush. This one untangled it cleanly and even flagged the midpoint trap. The interpretation actually made sense of my family history.
Solid and honest. The report did not pretend to know more than the data allows, which I respect. Placed me firmly in East African Bantu with a small Cushitic share. Delivery was a bit slower than I hoped but the quality made up for it.
Beautiful report. The maps showing where my closest ancient matches lived made the whole thing feel real, not just numbers. My Bengali ancestry came through with the Tibeto Burman trace I always suspected.
Fast and cheap. I just needed proper scaled coordinates for Vahaduo and got them in minutes. Way easier than fighting with the request queue elsewhere. Used them for several relatives already.
Clever idea. I uploaded my parents and my own kit and it separated out which side gave me what. The maternal Scandinavian piece was a surprise. Only reason for four stars is I wanted even more detail on the paternal side, but support answered my questions quickly.
As someone from Kerala I was tired of generic South Asian results. This broke down my ancestry into proper components and the closest ancient samples matched what my grandparents told me about our roots. The PDF is detailed and easy to follow.
