Amazing Safari with Great service
A thank you note for Franck(Our Travel Organiser) for putting together such a wonderful trip. Okoa Africa tours provided us everything that was promised and more - in fact, I fell in love with this place and its gentle old world charm. The weather was spectacular, lovely accomodation and gracious people. Our time in Kenya will be forever etched in our memory and we will continue to (and have been) singing its praises since our return. Franck- Once again, thank you so much for such an amazing trip n a mind-blowing hospitality. Much appreciated

Excellent tour in the Masai Mara Reserve
We were very satisfied by Okoa Africa Tours. We went for a 3-day safari trip to the Masai Mara National Reserve in a small group of 6 people. Our guide, Gibson, was passionate about his job and really did his best to show us all animals the closest possible! We saw all savannah animals except for the rhino and really enjoyed our time in Kenya.

Okoa is reliable touroperator.
Second time safari to Masai Mara game reserve. Communication went smoothly. Me and my daughter did a joining safari. What I like about Okoa is that they are doing everything to comfort you. I chose for Okoa because for me it's important that what I paid for safari, goes directly into Kenian economy for a fair price.
Rates are lower then traveling with the bigger companies, but service is better. So I hope more people choose Okoa for an outstanding experience.

Amazing Safari Experience
My friend and I had a limited time in Nairobi but we were keen to do the Maasai Mara in 2 days. Our driver Geoffrey was absolutely amazing and we were very lucky to be able to see the big 5 in just two drives.
The Maasai Mara was absolutely beautiful, and I would recommend this group for organising it!

Phenomenal experience, magical times
From the moment we first accessed the SafariBookings website and asked for the quotation they promptly replied us with all the information we needed. Since we we're not coming from the airport (but by bus) they offered to pick us up at the station at no fee and dropped us at our hotel, only stopping at the office to hand the payment and check the arrangements for our safari on the next day. They were helpful and friendly at all times and were always communicating with us and informing the next steps.
On the day of the departure to the safari, they picked us up and explained how the logistics would be (given different groups were staying for different amount of days at the safari) and we were placed with two other ladies who would be doing the 3 days-2 nights package (we did the 2 days-1 night). Everything went smoothly on the ride there and the accommodation exceeded our expectations (even though they didn't have hot water in the showers) as well as the meals included (proper breakfasts, lunchs and dinners).
The safari experience was beyond incredible. Our tour guide, Joffrey, did an amazing job and we were so lucky we got to see the BIG 5 and many other animals (the quest to find the Black Rhino was so fun and we were able to spot a leopard which is quite difficult!)! He stayed in touch with other guides through a radio frequency and they would always inform where other animals were placed and you could see he genuinely wanted us to witness all of them (and we would get so so close to the animals!). On our way out e even caught a lioness eating what was left of a Zebra (a raw and wild moment).
We also booked the Giraffe Center and Elephant Orphanage once we were back in Nairobi and despite some difficulties we encountered (regarding time, jam and misscommunication) the experience with the giraffes was lovely (we ended up not going to the Elephants cause the feeding time is between 11-12pm and we missed it so we ended up going to a mall + local market).
You can definitely see they improved from previous feedbacks and reviews they received and the service was spot on. I highly recommend them!
Thank you so much Frank and Joffrey, you made our journey magical!

It was an amazing experience. Thank you Jayson for saw the big five and for the interesting story!
It was really great experience to visit Masay Mara park and Nakuru lake with this company.
Transfer from airport to hotel was in time. First of all guys from Okoa Africa Tours met us in the airport and transfered to the Okoa Africa Tours office for paying the trip, then they tranfer us to the our hotel.
Tomorrow morning they met us in our hotel and tranferd to the met point for starting the safary trip. By the way, emploeey of Okoa Africa Tours helps me to buy local sim-card.
I whant to tell the big thanks to our guide Jayson for showing the big five! It's amazing, we have also seen two representatives (lions and buffalos) of the big five in the firt day of our trip!
Jayson told us very interesting facts about animals, their habits and lives! He gave us the opportunite to saw animals as close as possible to be safety!
In the Nakury Lake we saw rinos! It's incredible, because I've never seen these animal before this trip.
So the big thanks to Okoa Africa Tours and our guide Jayson for showing us the magic world of safary!

Very well organised!
We asked for a quote on how much the tour would be and they came up with one very quickly. After that they called me and we discussed the price, but mainly the procedure. They were very clear and helpful. The driver picked us up at our hotel in time (too early even) and we proceeded to the office where we payed. We met the rest of our safari family on the way. The tourguide was very social and told us many stories about where we were driving. He also drove with great care. When we got to Masai mara he showed us so many animals. The next day we had to go back and our safari family went on for another day, so they arranged for us another driver to take us back. This driver dropped us at the office and than someone brought us to the matatu stage.
The tour was absolutely great and we really enjoyed! Everyone was very helpful and it was very good service.

Amazing 5-Day Budget Safari in Kenya
The company was very fast in responding to my emails. They were prompt in picking me up from the airport on the day of arrival and dropping me off at my accommodations for the night. The next morning, they were on time in picking me up for the start of my 5-Day Safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha/Hell's Gate Park.
The safari itself was the most incredible experience I have ever had. You really see the beauty of the country, its wildlife, and its people. It is a budget safari, so do not expect luxurious accommodations unless you're willing to pay extra for them. In Masai Mara, I stayed at an eco camp that had the basics, but at the lakes, we stayed in very nice hotels. I traveled solo and joined a group that consisted of 5 other people the whole time, with people rotating in and out depending on their own itineraries. My driver for 4 days, Patrick, was great. He was very helpful and knew everything about everything in our destinations and was very good at spotting animals that were hiding. We saw ALL of the big 5, including a rare sighting of a lioness in Lake Nakuru.
I would 100% recommend Okoa Africa Tours and would use them again myself for my next safari adventure in East Africa. Feel free to contact me for further details!
