Amazing
Incredible experience!! Everything went amazing and we saw a lot of animals. Gudilah was super helpfull in organising the trip and with everything we needed. Our guide machete has a lot of experience in the field and was always in the right places at the right time. Also Rama took us to kilimanjaro and it was a beautiful walk. I can only say good things about this trip!

Punctual, well organized and dedicated.
My experience with Oqabii Tours and Travel was extremely fulfilling and worthwhile. My team and I were accompanied by Michelle and Simon who were very keen on ensuring we get the best experience possible at the Nairobi National Park Safari Drive. They knew where to go, details about the various animals we saw and even how to handle the monkeys that tried to take people’s food😂. Not to mention, they were so punctual. I think it really means a lot when people respect time and they absolutely did. They were very lovely guides. In addition, The bus was very clean and very comfortable. The tour was so good I felt so sad that it was over already, and that really speaks volumes because they made the experience so memorable. We even got to have a walk to the Maasai Market by the help of Alex and Idris who were rangers. They explained to us so much, but the one I wouldn’t forget is how the Rhinos mark their territories. (Make sure to ask about that when you visit as it is so interesting!). Having not ever gone for a safari before, I am so glad Oqabii was my choice as they greatly delivered, beyond what I could ever expect.

Ben was knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating.
I researched a lot of different tour companies for my wife and I's honeymoon. It was our first time ever doing a safari and our first time ever in Tanzania. Tanzania Choice made our experience absolutely seamless. From the moment we landed, we were met by our amazing tour guide, Ben. He brought us straight to our hotel in Arusha that night, and we went on our 4-day safari after that. Ben was an amazing tour guide who genuinely loves what he does and was just as interested in finding and watching the animals as we were. All our accommodations we were brought to were comfortable and had excellent food. We especially enjoyed the Central Serengeti Bush Camp. There's no way to properly express how much we were able to see. We chose to do a shorter safari than most might but were still able to see so much in those 4 days at Ngorogoro Crater, Ndutu, and the Serengeti. Brenda was able to organize a flight from the Serengeti to Zanzibar, where we spent the remainder of our honeymoon, which no other company I researched was able to do. When we went to Zanzibar, I messaged Brenda with 1 day notice before we flew over there to see if their Zanzibar staff could bring us on some excursions. They were very easily able to organize this for us and even pick us up from the airport in Zanzibar for much cheaper than our hotel was charging for transport. The excursions in Zanzibar were awesome too and our guide in Zanzibar was also extremely friendly and knowledgeable.
Bottom line is that Tanzania Choice was fantastic and well worth the money we spent. If and when we ever go back to do another safari in Tanzania, we will absolutely book with them again.

Oqabii Tours and Travel doesn't just show you wildlife — they craft an experience for you.
I recently visited Nairobi National Park with a group of 15 friends, courtesy of Oqabii Tours and Travel — and what an experience it was! From start to finish, everything was seamlessly organized, making it effortless for such a large group to move together and enjoy every moment without a hitch.
Our guide Michelle and driver Simon were nothing short of outstanding. Their energy was infectious, their knowledge vast, and their passion for wildlife genuinely shone through. As we made our way through the park, they helped us spot an incredible array of animals — helmeted guinea fowl, impalas, white rhinos, hippos, and more — while treating us to fascinating fun facts that had everyone leaning in with curiosity. It wasn't just a game drive; it was a live wildlife documentary with the best narrators you could ask for.
A highlight for many of us was the short nature walk along the Athi River, where we came face to face with crocodiles in their natural habitat — an absolutely thrilling moment! The walk added a beautifully intimate layer to the experience that a vehicle ride alone simply can't replicate.
Oqabii's service went far beyond satisfactory — it was exceptional in every sense. They made 15 people feel individually seen, catered for, and genuinely taken care of. That's no small feat!
If you're planning a safari — whether solo, with family, or like us, a big group of friends — Oqabii Tours and Travel is the team to call. We will absolutely be back. A resounding 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great Amboseli & Maasai Mara experience. Thanks to James and Steve for making it special
Our trip to Amboseli and the Maasai Mara was wonderful, and a big part of that was thanks to James and Steve. They were patient, knowledgeable, and communicated so well throughout the journey. They took extra effort to make sure we explored everything to the fullest, and their guidance and kindness made every day special. We couldn’t have asked for better people to show us the beauty of these places

Very well organized, very reliable and extremely knowledgeable about the area
The trip was very well organized, timely pick-up, very friendly staff accomodating all our wishes, extremely knowledgeable guide who shared many interesting details on plants and animals in the area, fantastic three-course meals, comfortable tents with en-suite bathrooms and hot showers. Our five-day safari in the Central Kalahari Game Reserve was a great experience with lots of interesting animal sightings thanks to the experience and passion of our guide. I would highly recommend this Travel agency to anyone interested in exploring Botswana.

Knowledgeable and fun
It was my first safari and I wouldn’t have it any other way. The tour van arrived on time and the guide and driver were both very kind. The driver was very knowledgeable and shared random facts about the animals. The breakfast was lovely as well

Amazing!
Man, that is a complete day! 7am arrival (Terry was right on time!), followed by transport to the Botswana border where we quickly got our passports stamped and switched over to the Safari vehicle with guide Baits! Baits pointed out all the would be expected sightings plus a water monitor and sable antelope. We transferred to the lovely five star lodge for lunch on the river (they had reserved the best table on the floor)- lunch was great by the way, load up on the beef! The boat cruise was incredibly relaxing, tons of water lilies, swiming elephants and a knowledgeable guide (he gave his name but I forgot it, sorry!). The trip concluded with Ben taking as home and continuing the safari as he pointed out a number of local spots for seeing game. He also shared some local music (at our request!)
Great time- the locals (from Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana) all take great pride in their parks, and genuinely are thrilled to share them, and very curious about what brought you here! Book it you won’t regret it.

Bad experience.
⚠️ Warning – I want to warn other travellers and share my experience with Samuel Namu Ntg (safari organiser).
We started planning our trip on 02.10.2025. At the beginning, communication was very good, everything went smoothly and we trusted him. After paying the first deposit, we received confirmations and were told everything would be arranged.
Before Christmas 2025, we were asked to pay an additional 25% deposit, as it was said this was needed to book hotels and other services.
Our trip started on 23.01.2026. When we arrived in Nairobi, he met us, everything seemed fine, and we felt happy and confident about our choice.
We paid the remaining balance in cash, but we did not receive any official receipt.
The next morning, we received a message saying the money was lost, and we were told that Lake Nakuru and Amboseli parks were not paid, even though earlier we were told everything was included. To avoid ruining our trip, we paid for these parks again.
We were promised a refund, but we still have not received any money. It has been quite a long time, and we are only getting promises and different explanations. Each time we ask, we are told to “give one more month” – including a promise to pay by the end of March, which has also passed.
I was actually planning to leave a good review, as many parts of the trip were well organised and enjoyable. However, this situation has been very disappointing.
I am sharing part of our conversation as proof.
I am sharing this experience to warn others, please be very careful and always ask for official payment confirmation.
