Great Safari!! Excellent tour operator and my guide/driver was top notch!
5/5

I am a photographer. My safari was 3 weeks long in July of 2022. Not once during that time was I disappointed in the service I received from Ongeri Expeditions or my Guide/Driver Martin Mbuguss. Guide Martin was very knowledgeable about the habits and locations of wildlife and put in great effort to find me exactly what I wanted to photograph each day. My longest lens was a Canon 100-500 7.1 and that was perfect because we were, for the most part, very close to the wildlife. Martin was open to my suggestions and knew much about the areas we visited. Ongeri Expeditions booked me into lovely camps and lodges that were close to watering holes or close to nature, I loved it! The Samburu Elephant Lodge was especially good and had the most delightful young Samburu women as part of the staff. Even though the area was suffering from drought and the river had dried up to a trickle guide Martin located many animals and vistas to photograph. I've been to Kenya before but this was my favourite trip and included not only the Samburu area but the Maasai Mara, Tsavo, Ole Pejeta, Amboselli, and Lake Nakuru. I can't say I loved the condition of the roads, other than the paved roads they were horrendous compared to even the worst in Canada but Martin's Toyota Land Cruiser 4X4 easily coped. I can't say I'm happy with the airlines either. Air Canada and Lufthansa managed to lose my checked bag for 7 days after arrival in Kenya and then cancelled my homeward flight for 24 hours out of Nairobi....nough said

Incredible experience
5/5

Ongeri Expeditions took us from Nairobi to Ambuseni N.P. and back in one day and it really was the highlight of our workation. They did so in a very safe, small-scale and professional way. Whenever asked for, the guide and driver were willing to stop the car, for example to pause for a magnificent view of Kilimanjaro or to see a herd of elephants coming out of the water. They gave us a lot of relevant information on Ambuseni's plants and wildlife too. We managed to see and experience all the highlights of the park including a visit to a Masai village and a lunch stop at a beautiful location with food and drinks of great quality. The driver drove safe all day long despite the sometimes poor conditions of the roads. When my friends will visit Kenya I surely recommend them to contact Ongeri Expeditions to make their safari trip. Because of their friendliness and hospitality, but above all because of their professionalism and knowledge of what they are doing.

Excellent tailor made tour
5/5

Ongeri Expeditions organised an excellent tour for us. Communication was very smooth and fast and we received excellent advice in the choice of the destination. We were not well informed when we made the first inquiry and some questions from the organiser brought to surface that our interest can be met with a tour very different from our original idea. Within a very short time we received a completely new offer which proved to be exactly matching our desire.
Service was excellent, on time, very hospitable, friendly and knowledgeable guides, paying attention to our interest and not hesitating to spend more time than planned on some things we especially liked. We also liked that Abner took photos on the trip that he shared with us, as this took some pressure from us having always to be alert + he knew the best angles and spots for photos.
It was great value for money, i can only recommend. Reliable, competent, experienced organiser whom you can fully trust. We had two tours together, both memories for a life time.

Organized, engaging and excellent service.
5/5

Ongeri Safaris gave us an exceptional experience, I had been to Amboseli twice before with other tours but never experienced it the way I did with Ongeri Safaris. From the comfort of the vehicle to the expertise of the driver and their engagement with us. The choice of our lunch venue was out of this world; dinning with nature yet conserving the very nature. The visit to Maasai community was very well arranged and photos taken very beautiful especially with the Kilimanjaro in our background....breath taking! Your choice of your safari tour company truly determines the kind of experience you get. I would choose Ongeri Safaris again and again! My guests from Netherlands Adrienn and Gijs had a breathtaking pleasant experience they will never forget!

The Perfect Companion to Our Honeymoon Trip!
5/5

We booked our honeymoon through Ongeri Expeditions. Everything was perfect! We had a great experience at the Majlis Resort at Lamu Archipelago. Our Tour Guides Martin and Abner provided us with friendly service all the time. Our service of lodging was all very luxurious, professional, and safe. We did not have a single worry. They followed up with us throughout our honeymoon to make sure we were happy with all arrangements. We cannot wait to visit again.

Awesome Honeymoon Trip to Africa with the Best Tour Operator – Ongeri Expeditions
5/5

I recently had a honeymoon trip to Africa arranged by Ongeri Expeditions, and the first thing that I wanted to do is to share my experience. It was simply amazing, fabulous and a very memorable journey. We had no problems at all till the end. The comfort and beauty of Africa, and the incredible parks where we got to see all the live animal action provided us with great knowledge of the animal kingdom, the delicious food and the history we learned from our competent and friendly tour guide Mr. Martin. The resort was amazing, where we found peace with excellent service, nearer to beach view from the swimming pool was beautiful. Thank you so much, Ongeri Expeditions & Mr. Martin for making my Honeymoon experience amazing and delightful.

Most Memorable Luxury Safari Tours - Ongeri Expeditions
5/5

We had an amazing time with Ongeri Expeditions.! We were an absolutely huge group and our tour guide made our time better by teaching us about the history and culture. The nature and animals we got to see were breathtaking and impossible to see anywhere else in the world. This safari tour was the best way to enjoy the wild animals and nature with an adventurous spirit. The camp, the food and other services were absolutely luxurious given the remoteness of our location. It was a seamless experience and I would definitely recommend the same to everyone. Thank you so much, Ongeri Expeditions for a memorable tour.

Meru National Park with Ongeri expeditions - A Beautiful Place
5/5

I booked a safari through Ongeri Expeditions on my recent trip to Meru National Park. The experience in the park was great. I saw lions, leopards, wild dogs, ostrich, zebra and giraffe. The booking process was so easy and Abner set up some other tours for me as well. I had a great view of the park and of the animals. At an affordable price, I got excellent service and a friendly and experienced guide. Thanks, Abner & Ongeri Expeditions for everything. I would definitely recommend it to everyone and would book again with Ongeri Expeditions.!
