amazing lifetime experience
The journey was started from Nairobi airport when we received the warm welcome from tour leader and driver ( Mr Edward )
Our stay was 2 nights
Both accommodations were perfect
One night stay in giraffes mayor was another amazing life time experience
Everything was managed professionally in advance by them
I did not have time to check and organize the trip by myself and I am really happy to did it through this travel agency
Eddi , our driver and tour leader was on time , gentleman and he loved his job so much that’s why he made this trip unforgettable for us

Professional, fun and exciting experience for the first time
From the first minute, our tour guide was super friendly and professional. He took us from our hotel in Diani, while driving to the park Tsavo East, he explained a lot things about culture, life style of locals, abut local plants. He was also fun to talk about difference of countries.
He took care of us the whole safari time, suggesting how and what is better to do around. During our time in the park, he was also very talkative and we talked a lot about animals, we learned a lot about wild life. As we saw some tour guides while little stops during the safari, our tour guid Daniel seemed more fun and relaxed than other, which gave us an opportunity to feel safe and have lots of fun. Cheers to Daniel.
Even though we had some problems in the beginning, which was not about Oakland tour, but the agency was helpful and understanding. They are super reliable and we already planing our next trip with this agency. Definitely would recommend Oakland tour for anyone who want best time during safari.

Very professional outfit
I chose Oakland from the other operators due to their professional approach towards the process of booking a safari, without too much hard sell. Communication was excellent before and during the trip, in terms of choosing the lodges/hotels and the pricing, and the driver who picked us up and was with us for whole 3 night/4 day experience was friendly and very knowledgable on all matters cultural and wildlife. I would highly recommend using Oakland

Very reliable and trustworthy tour operator!
Booked with Oakland on my first day in Kenia. A bit awkward: can I trust these people my large amount of money for a 9 days safari?? They have proved: yes, you can 100% trust them! Everything was like we agreed, had a great driver, who was also perfectly on time when picking me up the first day. Knew where to find the game. Fellistas of Oakland also regularly checked with me if everthing went fine. I couldn't have had a better safari. A 10 out of 10 for Oakland and driver Willy!

Exceptional and individualized service who were consistently there to support us in our planning
When selecting a tour operator for climbing Mount Kenya, I appreciated Oakland's clear and timely communication. I planned the trip to Kenya without an agent, so I worked with many different companies to plan our stay. I can confidently say that Oakland had the best communication, answering many of my questions in the months leading to the tour.
For the trek in Mount Kenya itself, the guide, cook, porter, and driver all were highly experienced, detail oriented, and adaptive to our needs. We had a lot of fun on our trek with them and always felt safe. And the food was delicious. Consider booking your travel with Oakland, they are a trustworthy company.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging.
I really enjoyed this tour. The operator was very communicative during the entire booking process up until the tour. She even met us at the hotel to collect payment which was very reasonable for level of service and vehicle provided for the tour and personally introduced us to our tour guide . The tour guide knew the lay of the land and where to find the animals. He gave detailed explanation on the animals. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience touring the manor sites in Nairobi.
