An amazing tour
5/5

I had a wonderful experience with this company from beginning to end. Everything was well organized, and the communication and attention to detail were excellent.

My guide and driver Moses were knowledgeable, professional and patient, making my safari truly memorable. Thanks to the entire team, I enjoyed an incredible wildlife experience and created lasting memories.

I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari in Kenya

Excellent Planning, Reliable Execution, Premium Cost
4/5

I booked a safari covering Samburu, Ol Pejeta, Lake Nakuru and the Masai Mara, as well as drivers for a couple of separate day trips. Overall, it was a very good experience, with an excellent itinerary and exceptional wildlife viewing.

Communication before and during the trip was consistently quick, polite and professional. The proposal prepared for the safari was detailed, clearly presented and comprehensive, and made the itinerary, accommodation and inclusions easy to understand.

The itinerary was a particular strength. Samburu was probably the highlight, with close sightings of elephants, zebra, giraffe, gerenuk, oryx, leopard and lions, among many other species. Lake Nakuru was another standout, with rhinos, hyenas, abundant birdlife and a large family of lions. Ol Pejeta was also excellent, and the lodge there was easily my favorite accommodation of the trip. The Masai Mara ultimately produced some exceptional sightings as well, including migration herds, leopard, cheetah and rhino. Remarkably, I counted 39 lions over the course of the safari.

My driver-guide contributed to many of these sightings and was generally helpful. There were a few minor communication and coordination issues along the way, but nothing that significantly detracted from the overall safari. Drinking water was always reliably available in the vehicle, although snacks were not included.

The main weakness for me was the accommodation selected in the Masai Mara, which did not quite match what I expected given the price of the overall package. This was particularly noticeable after the excellent experience at Ol Pejeta. The lodges at Samburu and Nakuru were very good and with the exception of the lodge at the Mara the food at the lodges was very good.

I also arranged drivers for a couple of independent day trips through the company. Everything worked smoothly, although the cost was a little higher than I had anticipated.

Overall, this was a memorable safari with strong communication, a very well-designed itinerary and excellent wildlife viewing. My four-star rating rather than five is primarily about value for money. I enjoyed the trip and was very happy with many aspects of it, but given the overall cost, the standard of some of the accommodation and a number of smaller issues along the way, I did not feel the package as a whole offered quite the value I had expected based on personal experience from other safaris in Africa.

Oakland Tours made every moment feel effortless and truly special from start to finish!
5/5

They understood the assignment. Comfortable train ride to one in a million hotel stay which was near where our event was. It was a 3-star hotel - but the ambience, service, food, ocean views, rooms, beautiful garden, bars, courts to play, boutique had such unique stuff - all these were so much better than a 5-star hotel. Loved it from the very beginning. Trust Oakland Tours to find you a gem 💎 and ensure your whole holiday experience is amazing 🤩

Our guide Moses is an exceptional, knowledgeable, and caring guide who made our safari unforgettable
5/5

We had an amazing experience with our safari guide Moses Njuguna in Kenya. He was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and always went the extra mile to make sure we had the best experience possible. His knowledge of the wildlife and local areas was exceptional, and we always felt safe and well looked after. Highly recommended. An excellent guide who truly made our safari unforgettable!

Impeccable service!
5/5

I had the pleasure of working with Oakland Tours to organise a private trip for my clients, and I couldn’t be happier with the service provided.

The attention to detail, excellent communication and genuine care in making sure everything was just right really stood out. What I appreciated most was the willingness to always go the extra mile and look for the best options for my clients, rather than simply booking what was easiest.

As a travel professional myself, having someone reliable, responsive and attentive behind the scenes makes such a difference. I felt confident knowing my clients were in good hands.

Thank you for making the whole process so smooth and for always keeping my clients’ best interests at heart. I truly look forward to working together again!
