Organised
We are a retired couple and were looking to get a close-up feel of an African experience at a reasonable cost. Online we discovered Sekanka Travel. The Safari is a 'partnership'. The support staff set up and clean up camp, gather the firewood, prepare wholesome and nutritious food, warm up the water for a hasty private bush shower and lay out the drinks table around the fire for the return of the hard working guests after a game viewing drive or boat excursion.
The eagle eyed guides give expert identification and background information on game, bird life and local flora. Think 'those rocks are actually hippos, that log is a crocodile, the lions eating that hippo killed it last night!'
In tough terrain, mechanical glitches (apparently rare) do happen. Support from head office and a resourceful and resilient crew kept the show close to schedule.
Meet, greet and transfers all went extremely smoothly.
A great adventure, life long memories and a few stories to embellish back home.
Thanks team.

Everything stated about the tour went as planned
The accommodation,safaris were excellent as well as food drinks and service. The staff were very attentive and looked after us very well. The only drawback was the small bus transfers to and from Johannesburg taking 6 hours with barely 1 only 5 minute stop along the way during a refuel stop. The bus was full and provided minimal leg room for large people.

Good value, friendly and reliable service
We booked our 3-day safari experience with Tekko Tours (2 days Maasai Mara, 1 day Lake Nakuru) and were extremely pleased with the service offered. There was flexibility in our choices, including dates and where we wanted to stay, which made us feel in control of our booking. The value for money was good, as we had had a wide range of quotes when booking and Tekko seemed the most reasonable for the mid-range quality that we wanted. Communication ahead of the tour was a little slow, with us having to chase to see how we go about making the final payment for the tour, but this was not a significant factor. The tour itself was a great experience!

Supportive flexible guide
We were a group of 10 and had two cars. I was mostly with Mr. James who is an excellent guide.
He is also flexible to our requests and tries to effectively utilise the entire time. During the safari he is in constant communication with other groups through phone and wireless radio system to ensure that we do not miss any opportunities.
I would like to thank and appreciate Mr. James for his support.

Unforgettable
I recently went on a trip to Kenya with a safari covering Masai Mara, Naivasha, and Nakuru. The experience was made exceptionally memorable by our tour guide, Robi. We initially started with a different group, but after two days in Masai Mara, we switched to Robi for the remainder of our journey.
Robi was simply amazing! His patience and dedication in showing us the beautiful Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha were unparalleled. He was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly kind, smiley, and friendly throughout the trip. Robi’s passion for his work and his warm personality made the experience truly special.
Even though we didn’t initially book with this company, the switch to Robi was the best thing that could have happened. Everything with him was perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you, Robi, for making our trip unforgettable!

Botswana is excellent for wildlife
We visited Botswana in the middle of a severe drought so this significantly affected some parts of our experience. However, we very much enjoyed our short trip to northern Botswana. The Moerimi wildlife reserve is a fantastic place to see a huge range of African animals up close. We saw lions, leopards (with cub), elephants, cape buffalo, giraffe, zebra, jackals, wildebeest, impala and much more. Our trip to the Okavango delta was impacted by the drought but still a wonderful experience.
