Cazeah was informed, helpful and prompt. She is excellent at her job!
I got in touch with Ongeri Expedition two weeks before the date we were supposed to go to Nairobi and Masai Mara. The agent assigned to us was Cazeah Owiti. She was prompt in her responses, every query I sent was responded to within a couple of hours. I could customise our itinerary where needed with the help of our agent. The communication overall was fantastic. We were helped with all the bookings - hotels, camps, transport from airport to the hotel, flight from Nairobi to Masai Mara.
Upon arrival to Nairobi, we were assigned with a porter who met us once we landed and guided us through immigration and the baggage belt. We then learned that the airline had misplaced our bags, but Ongeri Expedition was kind enough to help us through that process too. We were assigned another porter when we came back to the airport the same night to claim our bags.
Our agent made sure we felt safe and could rely on her for any help or assistance.
Masai Mara, in general is an expensive tourist destination because of its unmatched wildlife reserve. But, Ongeri Expedition has different packages according to the budget to cater to everyone’s needs and tastes.
Ongeri Expedition was an excellent choice and I wouldn’t think twice to plan a visit to Kenya again with them. They were reliable, and fantastic at their job.
Special thanks to Cazeah, our tour agent for everything she did for us.

Amazing experience from start to finish
We had the trip of a lifetime with Ongeri Expeditions in Kenya!
Communication was excellent and all our queries were answered quickly.
Our driver and guide George was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and fauna, and looked after us well the whole trip. Most importantly he made sure that my partner (who had never been on a safari before) got to see his Big Five!
We visited Samburu, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara. These provided a great mix of wildlife and landscapes. We opted for the luxury accommodation and all the places we stayed were of an extremely high standard. Our highlight would have to be Ashnil Surana camp in Samburu - truly stunning surroundings (watching elephants and other wildlife crossing the river from your veranda) and a beautiful lodge. The staff at all the camps could not do enough for you! I am vegetarian and all the camps had several options for me to choose from. In the months running up to our trip we had some of our accommodation changed, however we were advised this was due to bad feedback for one camp, and the new camp in Samburu having opened up, so it was clear from the outset that Abner takes great care to only provide the best experiences.
All in all we would not hesitate to recommend Ongeri Expeditions to anyone looking for the perfect Kenyan safari experience!

Thank you for giving us an unforgettable journey. Africa is truly enchanting.
This trip gave us wonderful memories.
Firstly, as for the coordination, Zippy was very patient and attentive. She adjusted the itinerary and hotel arrangements several times according to my needs. She even applied for a WeChat account for me because I don't have WhatsApp.
Our driver was Bonnie, and I highly recommend him!!!!!! He was very responsible and experienced. He searched diligently for animals in Maasai Mara and Amboseli, especially on the last day in Maasai Mara. Bonnie spent the whole day with us on a safari in the park. Knowing that we were disappointed not seeing a leopard, he insisted on taking us to track one when he heard there was a sign of leopard before we left the park. We were fortunate enough to witness a leopard hunting, and we are especially grateful to him for that! Overall, it was a very satisfying journey. Thank you very much! By the way, it's better to choose accommodations inside Maasai Mara.

Fantastis
From our first enquiry to receiving a lovely email once Home, Abner and Ongeri were fantastic, from finding our camp, organising the most amazing balloon Safari, and being just the other end of a WhatsApp with answers to any questions we had, you have helped us make memories we will never forget.

Excellent and Up to the Point
Excellent Service and Hassle-Free Experience with Ongeri Expeditions
I recently had the pleasure of booking my itinerary for a visit to the Masai Mara with Ongeri Expeditions, and I must say that my experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment I contacted them, Miss Musangi, one of their dedicated representatives, provided outstanding assistance, ensuring that every aspect of my trip was seamlessly arranged and tailored to my preferences.
Throughout the entire process, Miss Musangi was always available and responsive, making me feel like a valued customer. She patiently listened to my requests, provided expert recommendations, and promptly crafted a meticulously detailed day-to-day itinerary that perfectly met my needs.
What truly impressed me was Miss Musangi's unwavering dedication to ensuring a hassle-free experience. She meticulously arranged all logistics, including transportation, accommodation, and activities, leaving no aspect overlooked. Thanks to her thorough planning, I could enjoy my trip without worrying about any logistical details.
During my time in Masai Mara, everything went smoothly, exactly as planned. The accommodations were outstanding and in convenient locations, allowing easy access to the park and maximizing my wildlife viewing opportunities. The choice of activities was diverse and catered to my interests, ensuring that each day was filled with exciting experiences and incredible encounters with the wildlife.
I cannot speak highly enough about Miss Musangi's professionalism, knowledge, and attentiveness throughout the entire process. Her expertise and commitment to customer satisfaction truly made all the difference, and I am incredibly grateful for her exceptional service.
Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Ongeri Expeditions, particularly with Miss Musangi's assistance, for anyone planning a visit to the Masai Mara. Their attention to detail, seamless organization, and personalized approach ensure a remarkable and stress-free experience. With Ongeri Expeditions, you can trust that your journey will be expertly crafted and unforgettable.

Excellent, best trip my wife and I could have wished for. Made our honeymoon super special
My wife and I wanted to go on safari as part of our trip to east Africa for our honeymoon. It’s safe to say we could not have had a better experience booking through Ongeri Expediations in particular with Zippy who was our tour operator. She was fantastic, always on hand to support with anything we needed, her communication was great always keeping us updated as and when we needed information.
Ongeri booked us onto Kichwa Tembo camp in Masai Mara and it’s safe to say it was the best 4 days my wife and I had every experienced and we cannot wait to go back already, and will definitely be using ongeri Expediations and zippy to support us on our next trip!
It was great value for money and we would highly recommend anyone to use them if they are thinking about booking safari!
We even booked the hot airballon add on which is a must! Unfortunately it was cancelled on the day due to the wind which was out of everyone’s control but zippy was on hand straight away to ensure we were seamlessly booked onto the hot airballon experience the very next day and we managed to have the best experience we have ever had floating over the Masai Mara and seeing it in all its glory. We are very grateful for zippy help throughout our entire experience and look forward to using ongeri and working with zippy again!
